Being yelled at by Gu Yusheng, Qin Zhi’ai was scared and couldn’t help but moan in pain. After a while, she reached out to pull at Gu Yusheng’s cuff and, enduring the unbearable pain, said weakly, “I don’t need to go to the hospital, I should just go home. I’m like this every month when my period comes.”
She was so shy that her last words could barely be heard.
Gu Yusheng didn’t catch her words, so he asked, “What?” Then he moved his head closer to her lips.
Because he moved too fast, his ear happened to touch her lips.
In an instant, an electric current spread through his body and hers. Gu Yusheng’s body froze, but the expression on his face remained calm.
With a warm flush on her face, Qin Zhi’ai moved her lips backward shyly, eyes cast down, and repeated in a soft voice, “Period.”
“Eh.” Gu Yusheng made a very short and fast sound. After a while, as if he suddenly understood, he nodded and said, “Mhm.” Then he withdrew his head.
When Gu Yusheng was about to bend to pick her up, he suddenly remembered the additional expenses he saw on the bill when he had gone upstairs and payed for the suite at the front desk. He abruptly turned his head and stared right into Qin Zhi’ai’s eyes, asking, “It came while you were staying in the suite?”
“Huh?” Qin Zhi’ai took a look at Gu Yusheng astonishedly, then lowered her eyes, nodded slightly, and said, “Mhm.”
So… she’s been uncomfortable since she was in the suite? That is to say, she never stopped feeling pain during the long time she accompanied me obediently to greet the others?
Gu Yusheng gazed at the space between her eyebrows, frowned, and suddenly asked, “Why didn’t you tell me?”
Why didn’t I tell him? He told me not to bother him… Qin Zhi’ai was unaware of what to say, so she just answered randomly, “Mhm.”
Mhm? What kind of answer is that? Gu Yusheng wrinkled his eyebrows even more.
He suddenly remembered the scene of her surrounded by a group of people when he had been looking for her in the banquet hall.
She might have been suffering at that time. That’s why she stood there motionlessly, allowing herself to be splashed and slapped, and didn’t try to escape.
But I was right in the banquet hall. She could have called me or just asked somebody for help… She could have told me that she was suffering from menstrual pain and chose to rest in the suite… She did tell me that she needed to use the bathroom, but she actually went to the balcony alone due to the unbearable pain.
A sense of inexorable pain was boiling in Gu Yusheng’s heart, and he became much more depressed than he had been when he had seen her being embarrassed by Yu Shali. His breathing picked up rapidly, then he looked around and stared into her eyes, yelling angrily, “I am asking you, if you felt uncomfortable, why the hell didn’t you tell me?”
Qin Zhi’ai took a step back out of instinct, but Gu Yusheng suddenly reached out, pinched her jaw, and lifted it, saying, “Are you deaf?”
