Lu Lixing couldn’t help but look at her again. She would always smile brightly and was always full of energy early in the morning. But right now, she looked like an eggplant that had frosted over. Half of her face was buried in the quilt. Ji Qingqing’s eyes appeared spiritless; there were two dark circles under her eyes. It was obvious that she did not sleep well last night.
“What time is it now…” Ji Qingqing muttered in a low voice. She was covering his stomach with her hand and her voice was quite weak. She looked weak and sick.
“It’s nine-thirty.”
Ji Qingqing sighed lightly and pulled the quilt up to cover her face. A person should never be too proud of oneself, otherwise, things would go wrong for them.
She was too excited last night, and the next day, her auntie visited. Her stomach felt like tiny blades were slowly cutting through her belly. It was extremely painful.
T/N: Her auntie visited means that her period came (to visit).
But she still has a shooting to do today! She mustn’t delay it!
“No, I have to get up.” This was the first job she received after she transmigrated here. Since she promised to meet Qin Yue at ten o’clock at the company, then she definitely can’t be absent.
Ji Qingqing steeled her heart and lifted her blanket and got out of bed. Her foot had just touched the ground when she suddenly fell down into a squat with her hand covering her stomach.
Lu Lixing thought that she was sick because of the way she was acting. He approached her and put his forehead on her forehead. He asked with concern, “Are you sick?”
Ji Qingqing raised her head and looked at him pitifully, “My stomach hurts.”
“Did you catch a cold? Or did you get sick because you ate food that was spoiled?”
Ji Qingqing shook her head and sighed, “My great aunt has come.”
Lu Lixing stared blankly at her. He was a man, so he could never fully understand the pain of being a woman.
But he knew that many women would feel uncomfortable for a few days every month. Sometimes, the pain will be so severe that it will be unbearable. The degree of discomfort will depend on their physique and their living habits. Drinking hot water will alleviate the pain slightly. If the pain was really severe, then they can take some medicine to relieve the pain.
Lu Lixing thought that there was nothing he could do for her since he was a man. “Then you should go to bed and lie down. You should also drink more hot water. If you need anything, ask Aunt Pei to get it for you. I’ll head to the company now.”
He told her to drink more hot water again.
Ji Qingqing glanced at him. It seemed like men in this era only know how to toss around the same words to comfort a woman.
“No way!” Ji Qingqing supported herself using the bed. She slowly stood up and clenched her teeth firmly, “I still have a shoot this morning. I promised Qin Yue that I will arrive at the company at ten o’clock.”
Lu Lixing looked at her pale complexion as she slowly moved step by step. He asked with suspicion, “Does it hurt that much?”
Ji Qingqing glared at him with resentment.
“…then why are you still planning to go to the company?”
Ji Qingqing had always been dedicated to her work and had never stood anyone up. She gritted her teeth and said, “So what if my great aunt has come? Why can’t I go to work?”
“Then I will ask someone to send you to the company.”
With that said, Lu Lixing called the driver and told him to stand by outside the villa for Ji Qingqing.
“Death warning: please go through this crisis with our wife, Ji Qingqing. If you refuse to do the mission or if you fail the mission, then ten health points will be deducted.”
Lu Lixing had just hung up when he froze at the sudden system announcement. He swallowed back the words that he wanted to throw at the system and forced himself to calm down.
He watched as Ji Qingqing limped towards the bathroom. He uncertainty asked her again, “Are you sure you can work at the company today?”
“I can do it. I’ll take two painkillers in a minute, then I should be fine in half an hour.”
