At that moment, the door to her room opened. Su Jiu jumped and turned to see the little villain enter the room, holding a steaming cup.
When he saw her pale and curled up, obviously in pain, Rong Si hurried over and stopped beside her bed. The worry and concern in his eyes were obvious. “Does it hurt a lot?”
When she met her gaze, for some reason, Su Jiu’s eyes suddenly stung.
Perhaps, it was because he had appeared at her side in the nick of time when she needed help most. It was hard to describe the feeling.
Su Jiu miserably nodded. “It hurts…”
She was usually a cheerful and smiley girl. So now that her eyes were red, Rong Si realized that she was in a lot of pain. He felt like his heart was being squeezed. He quickly blew on the ginger tea in his cup and handed it to her. “This is brown sugar ginger tea. Get up and drink some.”
So he went out to make ginger tea.
My child is too amazing!
Sitting up in bed, she reached for the cup and took a sip of ginger tea. It was neither hot nor cold, just the right temperature. Her heart and stomach felt warm, and the pain seemed to ease instantly.
Rong Si took two sheets of paper from the tissue box on the bedside table and wiped the sweat from her forehead. The concern in his eyes didn’t diminish as he studied her pale face. “I’m going out again. Wait for me.”
Then he ruffled her hair and hurried out.
Rong Si returned within minutes. He seemed to be in a hurry. Sweat beaded his forehead, and he was panting. This time, he had brought back with him a box of heat packs. “Try this.”
He had learned on the Internet that besides drinking brown sugar ginger tea, one could also put hot packs on their stomachs during their periods. The pain would be relieved quickly.
As she was being taken care of by her child, Su Jiu’s heart softened.
She really did not want to give up such a good boy to another girl!
Su Jiu took the heat pack and saw his sweaty forehead. “Big Brother, where did you buy this?”
“A supermarket nearby.”
“Thank you!” Su Jiu said sincerely, “If you weren’t here, I’d die of pain!”
Rong Si reached out and knocked her lightly on the forehead. He frowned and said, “What nonsense. How would you die?”
Sticking out her tongue, Su Jiu unwrapped a heat pack and placed it on her abdomen. Slowly, it started to hurt less.
Rong Si was still looking at her worriedly. Su Jiu looked at the time and saw that it was already past three in the morning. She apologetically said, “Big Brother, I’m fine. Go to sleep.”
Rong Si had no intention of sleeping. “I’ll sleep when you do.”
His tone was so firm that Su Jiu could only say, “All right.”
After that, she lay down and closed her eyes as he watched her. Rong Si tucked her in and said in a low voice, “If you’re still uncomfortable, don’t hold it in. You must tell me.”
Sensing his concern, she nodded obediently. Before long, she fell asleep.
Rong Si sat by the bed, watching her. After making sure she was asleep, he reached out and gently pushed the slightly messy hair back from her forehead.
His fingers were slightly cold. Su Jiu seemed to sense that and instinctively leaned into his palm like a kitten.
Her hair tickled his palm, making his heart itch. Rong Si’s eyes darkened. After staring at her for a long time, he couldn’t help but lower his head bit by bit. Carefully, as if he were worshiping her, his thin lips gently pressed against her forehead.
