Lou Yuming remembered Shao Cheng had said that drinking too much Chinese medicine could indeed disrupt a woman's menstrual cycle.
"Open the door first."
Lou Yuming looked at the crab roe buns he had specially asked someone to buy from the south of the city.
"It hurts..."
Song Xi started groaning and acting, although it would be embarrassing in front of Ye Tian and Ye Hai, it would be even more embarrassing if they were discovered later!
She said weakly, "You should go back first."
Unexpectedly, Lou Yuming became even more anxious upon hearing her voice.
"Does it hurt a lot?" He reached out and entered the password, but to his surprise, it was incorrect.
When had she changed it?
"What's the password?" Lou Yuming's aura turned cold, and his tone carried a hint of threat, "If you don't open the door, I'll have someone break it down."
Song Xi suddenly stood up.
It's over, it's completely over.
Song Xi furrowed her brows, muted her phone, and said to Ye Hai and Ye Tian, "Why don't you hide upstairs for a bit?"
Ye Tian was very resistant, wanting to say why, but Ye Hai immediately covered his mouth and then, like picking up a little chick, led him upstairs.
"Don't worry, we won't make a sound."
Song Xi smiled apologetically, feeling a bit embarrassed.
The two hid in the closet.
Ye Tian was fine; he was thin and fit perfectly when he curled up. It was Ye Hai who suffered. He was already tall and muscular, standing rigidly like he was at attention, not moving an inch.
"Why..." Ye Tian still grumbled softly.
Ye Hai glared at him, "If you don't want to embarrass Song Xi, then shut up."
Ye Tian whimpered, like a puppy, sulking with his head down.
Song Xi quickly cleared away Ye Tian and Ye Hai's bowls and chopsticks, but it was no match for Lou Yuming's sharp eyes.
When he saw that three chairs had been pulled out, his brows knitted together instantly.
"Do we have guests?"
Song Xi quickly replied, "It was Taozi and Xiaomo! They left after breakfast, and I didn't have time to clean up because my stomach hurt."
After saying that, she lazily collapsed onto the sofa, committed to the act.
"Why are you wearing this?" He was very observant and noticed her wrinkled pajamas, which looked unworn.
Song Xi marveled at how sharp his eyes were, racking her brain for an answer, then sneezed, "I'm cold..."
Lou Yuming noticed the dark circles under her eyes and then turned up the temperature, "If you're cold, turn on the air conditioning."
Song Xi subtly glanced upstairs. The air conditioner was pointed towards the second floor. With the outside temperature at over twenty degrees Celsius, Ye Hai and Ye Tian hiding in the closet would surely suffocate with the air conditioning on so high.
"Does your stomach still hurt?"
Lou Yuming reached out to touch her lower abdomen, but Song Xi instinctively dodged.
"No... no, it's better if I just drink more hot water."
Why was she acting so strangely, so unnaturally?
Was it because of her period?
Lou Yuming knew very little about such matters. Seeing her so "uncomfortable," he asked, "Are you very tired?"
Song Xi nodded vigorously.
Lou Yuming opened his arms, "Then I'll carry you up to rest."
"???"
Song Xi nimbly dodged backward, "No need for that!"
Then she remembered she was on her "period" and immediately leaned weakly against the sofa, "I can do it myself."
"..."
Lou Yuming pursed his lips. He took a step forward, his tall figure and powerful aura leaving Song Xi with nowhere to hide.
"You're usually so pampered, and now you're pretending to be strong."
It's not like that, big brother...
Lou Yuming's long arms scooped her up, effortlessly lifting Song Xi into a princess carry.
"When you should yield, you must yield."
"..." Song Xi's mouth twitched, "You're right."
The temperature on the second floor was much warmer than downstairs.
Lou Yuming disliked heat, but Song Xi was feeling cold due to her period, so he "thoughtfully" turned up the heat again.
Damn it... this is going to be fatal!
"Get some good rest."
Lou Yuming placed Song Xi on the bed. Suddenly, there was a sound from the closet.
Lou Yuming's gaze flickered.
"It hurts..."
Song Xi immediately cried out, clutching her stomach.
Lou Yuming's attention shifted back to Song Xi, "Does it hurt badly? Do you need medicine?"
Song Xi shook her head and casually complained, "It's sagging again. I'll get a better hanger next time."
Hearing this, Lou Yuming's sharp gaze softened.
Meanwhile, inside the closet, Ye Tian was so hot he could barely breathe.
