Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1805: Chapter 1804: Unrelated to Love

”Mhm, mhm! I’m relieved!” Tian Niu wiped the sweat off his forehead and said gratefully, ”I already heard about this situation on my way here! I really need to thank you all! Luckily, you noticed it in time. Otherwise, I can’t even imagine what might have happened!”

Gan Tian’s lips curved into a smile: ”Captain, you shouldn’t say that. Back then, you saved my life! If it weren’t for you, there wouldn’t be a Gan Tian here today!”

”That’s a separate matter!”

”No, it’s not the same!” Gan Tian said, her cheeks slightly flushed. ”If Captain Tian hadn’t saved me, I would’ve been dead for sure! On the other hand, if we hadn’t found Shuangshuang, someone else would have! In our military compound, nothing serious would have happened to her!”

Gan Tian’s words were sincere and straightforward.

She didn’t boast about saving Gu Shuangshuang in front of Tian Niu, and it was precisely this attitude that made Tian Niu think highly of this female soldier.

This female soldier liked him. He had figured that out when she wanted to ask him to watch a movie together.

But after he politely declined, she didn’t do anything inappropriate or excessive.

This made Tian Niu feel that she was a very measured and sensible soldier.

He liked this type of female soldier.

Although, this ”liking” was purely out of comradeship and had nothing to do with romantic feelings.

”Thank you, Gan Tian!” Tian Niu said sincerely.

”No need to thank me.” Hearing her name spoken with emotion by Tian Niu, Gan Tian’s face turned red. She lowered her head shyly, feeling that what she had done was right and worthwhile.

”And what about me, Captain Tian? You’re only looking at Gan Tian, only thanking her! You don’t even see me, is that it?” Lin Miao complained.

”Thanks to you as well, Comrade Lin Miao!” Tian Niu responded with a goofy grin.

”I don’t want just words of thanks!” Lin Miao, quick-witted as ever, rolled her eyes mischievously and said, ”How about this—when Captain Tian officially becomes a dad, you have to treat us to a nice feast.”

”Don’t worry about that. That’s absolutely no problem! I promise!”

”That’s great. It’s a deal!”

”A deal!” Tian Niu made his promise and, noticing it was getting late, didn’t want to trouble these female soldiers to stay and keep him company. So, he said, ”There’s nothing to worry about now. You two should head back!”

”We don’t really have anything urgent to do, so staying here with you a little longer won’t hurt.” Gan Tian wasn’t eager to leave. She thought staying with Tian Niu a little longer was a good idea.

”No... no need... It’s fine if it’s just me waiting here.”

At that moment, hurried footsteps sounded from the hallway. Duan Aihua hurriedly arrived with Li Youjun, who had just been picked up from the station, following behind her.

”Tian Niu! Has Shuangshuang already gone into the delivery room? How did it all happen so fast? When I left earlier, she was still fine!”

”I don’t know either. When I came back from the wedding, Shuangshuang was already in the delivery room. Thankfully, these two female comrades were there. Otherwise, Shuangshuang might have truly been in danger.” Tian Niu explained the situation to his mother-in-law.

”Oh dear! Then I must thank you both!” Duan Aihua quickly expressed her gratitude to Gan Tian and Lin Miao.

”No need to thank us. We just happened to be here, so we lent a helping hand,” Gan Tian replied politely to Duan Aihua.

”Mm-hm, exactly.” Lin Miao nodded repeatedly, then glanced at the clock. Finding an excuse that it was getting late, she said farewell to Tian Niu and pulled Gan Tian out of the hospital.
