Nian Junting called her repeatedly for a while, and then Nian Xi called her. Luosang didn’t answer even one call. Five minutes later, Sister Lan knocked on the door, came in, and said, “Sangsang, I thought you were sleeping. Young Master has been calling you all this time. Why don’t you answer his calls? He is really worried about you. He thought you had an accident.”
Luosang invigorated herself with an effort to look back at Sister Lan. Perhaps Sister Lan was the only one in this house who truly cared about her. “Tell him that I won’t go,” she said.
“Why?” Sister Lan was stunned. “Aren’t you two going to have a candlelight dinner? Did Young Master make you unhappy? Or are you feeling unwell?”
“No, I just don’t want to go.” Luosang turned her face away.
“Alright.” Sister Lan felt it was inappropriate for her to ask any further questions, so she turned around and called Nian Junting. “Sangsang’s ‘aunty’ came to visit her. She isn’t feeling well.”
“Aunty?” Nian Junting was surprised. “Sangsang doesn’t even have a mother. Where did this aunty from? Did her aunty make her angry? She’s even feeling unwell.”
Sister Lan was speechless for a while. “Young Master, by ‘aunty,’ I mean she’s on her period, not a real aunty,” she explained.
“Just say period then. Why say ‘aunty?’ So complicated.” Nian Junting sighed with relief. “But why is she suddenly on her period? The app on my phone didn’t remind me about that.”
“Menstruation can be irregular sometimes. It may start earlier or later,” said Sister Lan.
“Is that normal?”
“Yes, yes.”
“Alright, I’ll come home for dinner.”
Sister Lan ended the call, then turned and said to Luosang, “Sangsang, you heard that. I told Young Master that you’re on your period. I don’t know why you’re having a fight, but Young Master is certainly gonna be upset because you stood him up. Just don’t tell him the truth, and don’t tell him that I lied. If he knew that I lied to him, he’d deduct it from my wages.”
Luosang didn’t know what to say. She was sad, but after hearing what Sister Lan said, she was very speechless.

Luo Ting Noodle Restaurant
Nian Junting ended the call, stood up from the chair, and said, “I’m not gonna eat here. Close up for today.”
The shop manager was a little confused. “Mr. Nian, the restaurant has almost been turned into an ocean of flowers. The chef spent an entire day preparing the beef soup. Aren’t you gonna taste it…”
“Yeah, my woman is on her period. She can’t be here, so we’ll come some other day.” Nian Junting frowned and said, “Give these flowers and the beef soup to your wife.”
“These are all imported flowers. They’re very expensive.” The shop manager felt pain over the wasted money. “In fact, being on her period isn’t a big deal. You can just send the chauffeur to pick her up.”
“I can do nothing about it. She doesn’t want to come, and I can’t force her. Maybe my woman’s period is unique. It just made her especially fragile.” Nian Junting sighed and slowly walked toward the door. By the door, he stopped and continued, “Wait, she loves beef noodles the most. Just pack some for me, and don’t put too much chili in it.”
“Yes, sir.” The shop manager nodded hurriedly.
After getting into the car with the packed beef noodles, Nian Junting got a call from Nian Xi.
“Brother, have you found Sangsang yet?”
“She’s at home. She’s on her period, not feeling well.”
“Good, then.” Nian Xi sighed with relief.
“Bye.” As Nian Xi put her phone down, Ji Chuan said to her as he was driving, “Now you can relax. She’s alright. She’s an adult. She’ll be fine.”
Nian Xi turned to look at him silently. She had missed him countless times and thought fondly of the time that they spent together. But now, she found him becoming more and more unfamiliar to her.
“Ji Chuan, did you know that I’m really angry today? I said so much to you last night. You knew that I asked Sangsang to come help me choose a wedding dress, so why did you suddenly bring Shuangwei over?”
