Jiang Zhi wasn't as thick - skinned as the man, so she decided not to speak anymore.
She buried her entire face in the man's chest. It was like a case of self - deception. As long as she couldn't see Aunt Zhang, Aunt Zhang couldn't see her.
Shang Chi looked at the shy woman in his arms, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl into a faint arc.
He carried her all the way from the gym to the bathroom in the bedroom, "You take a shower first, and I'll get you some clean clothes."
Jiang Zhi had sweated a lot during exercise, and with her period coming, she just wanted to wash herself clean quickly.
She responded in a low voice, "Okay."
After about ten minutes, Jiang Zhi had already finished washing, but the man still hadn't come back.
The key point was that there was no bath towel in the bathroom. She didn't know if Aunt Zhang had taken it to wash, but there wasn't a single bath towel on the rack.
Just as she was about to go out to find clothes to wear, the man pushed open the bathroom door from outside.
Jiang Zhi quickly turned her back. Even so, she could feel him looking her up and down. Her face immediately became hot.
Jiang Zhi turned her head to look at him, "Just put the clothes on the rack."
Upon hearing this, the man really did as she said and placed all the clothes on the rack.
However, before he left the bathroom, the desire for her was undisguised in his eyes.
His voice was extremely hoarse, "Zhi Zhi, in a week, I'll come again to collect the debt you owe me."
Jiang Zhi, "..." Couldn't he be more subtle?
After the man went out, Jiang Zhi blushed and reached out to take the close - fitting clothes on the rack, but she touched a square, soft thing.
At first, Jiang Zhi was still shy because the man had touched her close - fitting clothes, but now the sanitary napkin in her hand made her stunned. She couldn't help but be a little surprised by his thoughtfulness.
What surprised her even more was the special underwear for her period that she took next.
There was an indescribable complex emotion in her heart.
There's a saying that goes, "One generation plants the trees in whose shade another generation rests." She thought she should be the latter.
After changing her clothes, Jiang Zhi walked out of the bedroom and happened to see Aunt Zhang putting something on the table.
Looking closely, it was two packs of daily sanitary napkins.
When Aunt Zhang saw Jiang Zhi come out, she looked at her and said, "Madam, see if this is enough. If not, I'll go buy more."
Jiang Zhi looked at the sanitary napkins on the table, "This..."
Aunt Zhang smiled, "Sir asked me to buy them. He said you don't have many left in your cabinet."
When Shang Chi was carrying Jiang Zhi past the living room on the first floor.
Aunt Zhang saw that Jiang Zhi was only wrapped in a bath towel, and her two fair long legs were hanging in Shang Chi's arms.
Looking closely, there was still some bloodstain under the bath towel.
For a moment, Aunt Zhang couldn't tell whether Madam was on her period.
Or whether Sir was too rough and hurt her.
She was still considering whether to ask clearly when Sir had already carried Madam to the second floor and turned into the bedroom.
After all, it was the employer's family matter, and it wasn't good for her, a servant, to interfere.
But she was worried about the latter.
It wasn't until Sir found her and told her to buy sanitary napkins that her hanging heart finally drop.
When Jiang Zhi heard this, she thought that indeed, there weren't many sanitary napkins left in the cabinet.
The man's thoughtful behavior made an unknown emotion well up in Jiang Zhi's heart again.
Thinking of something, Jiang Zhi hesitated and said, "Aunt Zhang, when Sir asked you to buy sanitary napkins, did he ask you any other questions?"
Aunt Zhang answered truthfully, "No. What's wrong, Madam?"
Jiang Zhi shook her head, "Nothing. Just asking. You go work."
Aunt Zhang responded with a "Okay" and left the room.
She just didn't know why, but she always felt that after Madam asked her the question, her expression looked a little down.
Jiang Zhi had a characteristic during her period. On the second day of her period, she was sure to have dysmenorrhea.
Sure enough, this time was no exception.
When she got up early in the morning, Jiang Zhi's abdomen had been aching with a sinking pain.
As usual, she went to get a warm palace patch, stuck it on the position where she had dysmenorrhea, and then went to wash up and put on makeup.
Shang Chi had a cross - border phone meeting today, so he woke up very early.
After the meeting, he returned to the bedroom from the study and happened to bump into Jiang Zhi who was about to go downstairs.
Jiang Zhi greeted him and then turned to go downstairs.
But just as she took a step, the man grabbed her wrist. His clear voice came from behind, "Uncomfortable?"
Jiang Zhi's figure paused. Her complexion wasn't very good during her period, so today she used a redder lipstick than usual.
She didn't expect that the man had noticed her abnormality.
Jiang Zhi turned to look at him and explained, "I'm fine. It's just dysmenorrhea. I've always been like this before. I've already stuck a warm palace patch. It won't hurt so much after today."
Hearing her words, Shang Chi's brows furrowed more and more, "Always been like this? Haven't you seen a doctor?"
Jiang Zhi didn't always have dysmenorrhea. It was after she became Jiang Xinian's agent that she often drank socially during her period, which caused the problem.
Every time she had dysmenorrhea, sticking a warm palace patch could relieve it a lot.
Therefore, she never went to see a doctor, and she didn't have time to see a doctor back then.
Jiang Zhi evaded the question, "It's a small matter. Many women have dysmenorrhea."
She changed the topic, "Aren't you going downstairs for breakfast?"
Shang Chi didn't answer immediately. His deep eyes stared at her for several seconds before he let go of her hand and said calmly, "Hmm, I'll go down later."
Jiang Zhi nodded and turned to go downstairs.
During breakfast, the sinking feeling in her abdomen became stronger and stronger. Jiang Zhi couldn't help but reach out to rub her abdomen from time to time.
The warm palace patch on her abdomen was already warm, and waves of warmth reached the painful area through her skin.
Usually, the pain should have started to relieve by now.
But this time, for some reason, not only did it not relieve, but it hurt more and more.
Jiang Zhi thought that the patch hadn't been on long enough, so she wanted to take a taxi to the company.
But before she could walk out the door, a sharp pain in her abdomen went straight to her brain, spreading to her limbs, and she started to feel weak all over.
Jiang Zhi endured the pain and slowly squatted down. Her body was already covered in a layer of cold sweat.
A buzzing sound started in her ears, and her vision gradually darkened.
Just when she thought she was going to faint on the ground, a pair of strong arms circled around her back and knees.
In the next moment, she was lifted into the air. In a daze, she looked up and saw the man's flustered and anxious expression.
She thought she must be hallucinating from the pain.
The man had always been calm and composed, and nothing could affect his emotions. How could he lose control for her?
Her consciousness drifted away, and her eyelids became so heavy that she couldn't open them anymore.
Jiang Zhi leaned against his firm chest and fainted.
In a confused state of consciousness, the long - lost deep and affectionate male voice rang in her ears again, "I'm really jealous of him. When can you make some room in your heart for me, huh?"
Her hand was wrapped in a big palm, and the rough and warm touch came from the back of her hand.
The man's unique scent lingered at the tip of her nose.
It wasn't a dream!
Realizing this, Jiang Zhi suddenly opened her eyes——
