Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The next day, Rong Qi was awakened by stomach pain. Her face was pale as she weakly opened her eyes, only to unexpectedly see a glass of water and two ibuprofen pain relief pills placed not far from her on the bedside table.
In her daze, Rong Qi vaguely remembered that last night, her stomach had been hurting badly in the middle of the night. Her head was spinning, and Ye Nanshen had given her pain relief pills, holding her in his arms and feeding them to her. Later, he warmed her hands and feet.
Every time Rong Qi’s period came, she would break out in cold sweat all over, even in the height of summer, her hands and feet remained ice-cold.
Rong Qi chuckled and a pale smile on her face. Although her lower abdomen still hurt, her heart felt much warmer. She was also a bit surprised. In the past, she used to sleep for an entire day during her period. Yet today, she woke up so early. Glancing at the time, it wasn’t even breakfast time yet.
The door was opened, and it was Ye Nanshen coming into the room.
“You’re awake?” Ye Nanshen greeted as he walked in, embracing Rong Qi. “Don’t move. Rest well today. Lu Chengzhou said you’re sensitive to the cold, and you suffer greatly every time your period comes. Is that true?”
Rong Qi said helplessly, “It’s not that serious. I’m a doctor myself. 1 know how to take care of myself. Don’t worry, I’ll rest a bit, and 1’11 be fine.”
Ye Nanshen remained silent, holding Rong Qi without saying a word.
Rong Qi knew Ye Nanshen was concerned. Her heart softened a bit and said, “I’m really fine. What about you, though? Why did you call Lu Chengzhou so late at night? Is that okay for him?”
After Rong Qi mentioned Lu Chengzhou, Ye Nanshen snorted lightly and said, “He’s pretty pleased now. What’s not okay about that? Little Qi, don’t go anywhere today. Rest at home and I’ll keep you company.”
Rong Qi was puzzled. She asked, “Aren’t you going to the company?”
“I’m not. 1 took a day off.”
‘Was that even possible?’ Rong Qi wondered.
The corner of Rong Qi’s mouth twitched slightly. She said, “But I’ve got classes to attend. Let me change and freshen up.”
“You can skip classes today.”
“I can’t. I won’t skip classes anymore. Don’t encourage me. Qiu Yonggen and the others already have a big grudge against us Class Seven. We can’t give them a reason to criticize us,” said Rong Qi as she propped herself up with her hands, pushed aside the blanket, and struggled to get out of bed.
Ye Nanshen fell silent, suddenly lifting Rong Qi up and said, “Then I’ll take you to wash up.”
Rong Qi said, “Actually, I’m not that fragile…”
‘Was it necessary to carry me around like this?’ Rong Qi thought.
“You sound weak, and your face has no color. How can I rest assured?” Ye Nanshen asked.
Ye Nanshen carried her into the bathroom, supervising her throughout the process. He even brushed her teeth for her. But he seemed to enjoy it. And his reason was what Lu Chengzhou had said to let Rong Qi avoid cold water.
When Rong Qi was almost finished washing up, Ye Nanshen carried her back to the bed, bringing her clothes.
“I want the black ones.” Rong Qi requested.
Ye Nanshen frowned, looking at the black clothes folded in the corner for a moment, then hesitated. Nevertheless, he picked them up and said, “I’ll help you change.”
Without much thought, Ye Nanshen just blurted it out.
Rong Qi gritted her teeth and said, “No need! I can change on my own.”
A faint smile finally curved on Ye Nanshen’s face. He said, “I’ve seen everything. What’s the big deal about changing clothes?”
After saying that, Ye Nanshen paid no attention to Rong Qi’s struggle and used the blanket to wrap her up before helping her change clothes.
A faint blush spread across Rong Qi’s pale face, and her ears turned hot. She couldn’t bear to look at Ye Nanshen.
Sometimes the pain wasn’t this intense, but regardless of the severity, Rong Qi always endured it alone.
Back when Rong Qi was still staying in the Rong residence, every time her period came, Rong Feiyu and Wang Qing would deliberately pick fights with her knowing she was uncomfortable. She had to put on a brave front, pretending to be a retard to deal with them..
