Still in shock, Qiao Yiyi hadn’t recovered yet. She realized that what the man said made sense and felt like an ignorant fool.
She couldn’t help despising herself at this thought.
What had she seen of the world really?!
She immediately lowered her head and snorted silently as she walked out…
…forgetting to flush the toilet.
Hence before she had gone far, the man suddenly grabbed her arm.
She turned around in surprise and saw anxiety on his face. “Has your wound torn apart again? Why is there so much blood?”
Qiao Yiyi: …
She grimaced. Really, she didn’t feel like speaking a word.
As she found herself in a conundrum, Lu Nanze quickly removed her collar and said, “Let me have a look.”
Then he swept his gaze over her shoulder.
But as he looked, he realized that the dressing that he had made earlier in the day was in place and nothing seemed to be torn.
Then what was all that blood in the toilet?
He gave Qiao Yiyi a confused look and asked, “Where else are you injured?”
Qiao Yiyi: …!!
Was this man in his right mind?
Back in the other villa, as Madam Lu, Qiao Yiyi had told him she was on her period. The man hadn’t even reacted. But now, where was this big reaction coming from?!
Qiao Yiyi twitched her lips and coughed lightly.
The man started to feel her up all over. Unable to take this much longer, she said, “I’m fine!”
“Fine? If you’re fine, then why all this blood?!”
Qiao Yiyi: …
She replied through a clenched jaw, “I’m having my period!”
“…”
It was as though a silence had come over the world.
Lu Nanze finally shut his mouth.
She threw a glance at him. For some reason, especially now that she was noticing a look of slight embarrassment on his face, she said to him, “Oh, I need to borrow something.”
Lu Nanze raised an eyebrow. “What?”
She replied, “Menstrual pads.”
Lu Nanze: …
The girl smiled to herself. Finally. A confused look on this man’s face.
There wasn’t even a piece of women’s clothes in this house, how could there be a menstrual pads?
She twitched her lips again and started walking away, saying, “Since there aren’t any—”
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Nanze started walking away with his head lowered. He told her, “Wait for me here.”
Qiao Yiyi was stumped.
She saw him run upstairs.
Within a minute, he came back down.
He was dressed neatly.
Without another word, he walked out of the house.
She heard the car engine starting up and then the car driving away, leaving the villa far behind.
The girl was still standing on the same spot in a daze.
What was going on?
Had something happened to the man suddenly?
But he had asked her to wait. So she did not leave, she sat down on the sofa.
In any case, she was starting to feel the ripples of pain in her abdomen and it caused her extreme discomfort. She just needed to sit down, lean against something and withstand her menstrual cramps.
Qiao Yiyi had been sitting there for about half an hour when suddenly the sound of a car engine approaching sounded. Then the engine stopped and she heard Lu Nanze’s footsteps as he strode into the house.
Puzzled, she suddenly noticed that the man was carrying a big bag in his hand.
It was a big black plastic bag, so she had no idea what was in it.
