While waiting for the red light, Zhou Jinfan glanced sideways at his wife sitting in the passenger seat. Her pretty face, as gentle as jade, always had a faint smile on it.

"Nancy, after today's medicinal bath, your skin will soon be back to normal. Shall we celebrate then?"

Nancy turned her head, her eyes sparkling, as if an entire galaxy was crushed in them.

"Okay, then I'll have to trouble my dear husband to arrange it."

Zhou Jinfan looked at his wife's lively little expression and couldn't help laughing, his deep eyes full of pampering and joy.

"No trouble, my pleasure."

"Husband." Nancy suddenly looked at Zhou Jinfan deeply.

"Hmm?" Zhou Jinfan's attention was focused on the front, but his eyes still swept across Nancy's face.

Seeing that she looked a little serious but didn't say anything, he took the initiative to ask: "What's wrong?"

"I was thinking..." Nancy tilted her head and smiled, "I must have done a lot of good things in my previous life to meet such a good person like you."

Zhou Jinfan's eyes flickered slightly.

Isn't that what he thought too?

"Silly boy, have you ever considered that I owed you in my last life, so I have to be twice as good to you in this life."

"Yes, yes, you owe me, so you have to treat me better." Nancy acted coquettishly in response to his words.

"Yeah." Zhou Jinfan reached out and held her hand.

The car soon arrived at the foot of the temple mountain. Zhou Jinfan unbuckled his seat belt and was about to accompany Nancy up as usual, but the moment he opened the car door, his cell phone rang rapidly.

Nancy, who was about to get off the car, stopped and looked at Zhou Jinfan.

Zhou Jinfan answered the phone and his expression changed after hearing the content of the call. Then he looked at Nancy with an apologetic look.

Nancy immediately understood that her husband had something urgent to do and could not accompany her to take the medicinal bath.

She sat quietly in the passenger seat, waiting for Zhou Jinfan to end the call.

After Zhou Jinfan hung up the phone, Nancy was the first to speak with a smile: "It's okay, if you have urgent matters at the company, you can go back and deal with them first, I can go up by myself."

Zhou Jinfan pursed his lips, feeling bad for not being able to accompany his wife.

After being together for so many years, how could Nancy not understand her husband's thoughts?

She smiled, moved closer to the man, kissed him on the fair and handsome face, and then coaxed him softly: "Husband, I'm really fine, and I've been here so many times, what are you worried about?"

"There's a popular saying online lately: You're responsible for making money to support the family, and I'm responsible for looking beautiful, so you have to work hard."

Zhou Jinfan's face softened, and his voice was as gentle as the spring breeze in March: "Okay, I'll pick you up later."

Nancy's eyebrows curved: "Okay."

After waving goodbye to Zhou Jinfan, Nancy walked briskly into the temple.

When we arrived at Mr. Chen's Clinic, there was no one inside. The clinic, which was emitting the fragrance of herbs, looked a little deserted.

Although Mr. Chen had done something that made Nancy unhappy before, when she faced Mr. Chen again later, she still chose to let the matter go. The two of them tacitly understood that no one mentioned it, and they lived in peace for two months.

"Nancy, you're here."

When he saw Nancy, a kind smile appeared on Old Chen's face.

Every time Nancy came to take a medicinal bath, she would help him take care of the herbs if she had enough time. Putting aside the incident with Shi Lin, he was still quite satisfied with Nancy.

Nancy smiled faintly at Mr. Chen: "Well, thank you for your help, Mr. Chen."

Elder Chen waved his hand and said, "Well, not really. I've already prepared your medicine for you. You're familiar with this place, so just go in and put it in."

Nancy smiled and nodded: "Okay, you go ahead and get busy."

After saying that, she walked towards the medicinal bath room with ease.

After adjusting the water temperature, she put her clothes aside and stepped into the bathtub.

The fragrant herbal aroma swept over her body, and Nancy felt her whole body, even her toes, relax.

After the medicinal bath was over, Nancy took the initiative to clean the bath room before stepping into the inner hall.

Elder Chen seemed to be writing a prescription. He didn't even look up when he heard the noise. "Sit down for a moment."

After a moment, Mr. Chen put down the brush in his hand, took out a small pottery jar from the side and placed it in front of Nancy.

"Nancy, today is your last medicinal bath. I've seen your condition and you're recovering very well. Keep applying this ointment every day and the scars on your body will disappear soon."

Nancy held the ointment and finally waited for this day. The smile on her face deepened a little, and there was more gratitude in her eyes when she looked at Mr. Chen.

Mr. Chen is indeed capable, and I have learned a lot from him during this period of time.

She stood up, bowed earnestly to Mr. Chen, and said, "Mr. Chen, thank you for your care and guidance during this period. You have worked hard."

Old Chen looked at the woman in front of him who was gentle and polite, knew when to act, and was gentle and generous, and a hint of pity flashed in his eyes.

He stepped forward and helped the man up: "Don't be so polite. If you don't mind, you can come often in the future."

Nancy smiled politely and said, "Okay, Mr. Chen, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Mr. Chen nodded.

Nancy turned around and was about to leave when she heard the sound of steady and powerful footsteps.

As soon as I raised my eyes, my gaze met a pair of eyes as sharp as an eagle.

The gentle smile on Nancy's face faded instantly, and there was no emotion in her eyes. She quickly looked away and walked past the man, wanting to leave the place quickly.

However, just as his shoulder brushed past the other person, his wrist was tightly grasped by a warm big hand.

The man's deep and charming voice rang out: "Xiao Xi, do you really have to treat me like this?"

When Mr. Chen saw the person coming, he put away the things on the table, turned around and walked towards the backyard. In an instant, only Nancy and Shi Lin were left in the hall.

When Nancy heard Shi Lin's voice, there was disgust in her eyes that she couldn't hide.

Not wanting to get entangled with him any longer, Nancy suddenly pulled her hand back and wanted to leave quickly.

However, her rejection and resistance made Shi Lin even more ruthless.

He exerted force on his hands and brought Nancy closer to him.

The man looked hurt, and his sharp eyes were pleading and vulnerable when he looked at Nancy.

He whispered, "Xiao Xi, please don't do this to me, okay? I really can't stand it..."

Seeing that Nancy didn't react at all, Shi Lin continued, "Xiao Xi, I beg you, please look back at me, okay? For so many years, you have always been the only one in my heart. Why don't you want to give me a chance to start over?"

"If you have any anger or resentment in your heart, you can tell me. I just ask you not to ignore me, okay?"

The man who always looked high and mighty with a cold and arrogant look in his eyes now seemed humbled to dust in front of Nancy.

A handsome face that is as flawless as if it were carved by a knife, but full of a sense of brokenness, it is so charming that one can't help but look at it.

But when Nancy heard these words, she felt extremely annoyed and even physically nauseous.

It is said that belated affection is cheaper than grass, and she doesn't care about belated apologies even more!
