Sis Jiayi, don’t lie to me. I know that I’m not very smart, but…
Shi Yao looked at Lin Jiayi’s beautiful and slender hands before turning to the chair behind her, and with a slightly doubtful frown on her face, she asked, “Is it… like that?”
“Is it not?” Lin Jiayi returned the question. Perhaps it was because she didn’t think that the excuse she found wasn’t very logical, she added, “I guess not, haha… To tell you the truth, Yaoyao, I’m usually not like that. I think it’s because my period is coming recently…”
Speaking up to this point, Lin Jiayi suddenly felt like she had found the perfect reason to cover it up, so she happily elaborated more on it, “… Yaoyao, you also know that during this period of time, our mood tends to become inexplicably irritable… We, women, tend to have just those few days in the month…”
Agreeing deeply with that, Shi Yao’s eyes glimmered in agreement as she said, “It’s the same for me too! Every time it comes, my mood would just feel a little down. Usually, I would feel very blissful if I could eat something, but in those few days, no matter how I eat, I would feel like there’s something heavy in my heart. It just feels uncomfortable…”
Lin Jiayi quickly followed through with what Shi Yao was saying to divert the topic away, “Oh? Yaoyao, which days do you usually feel unwell?”
Meanwhile, Lin Jiage heard the conversation between those two women loud and clear.
Is this how women tended to communicate with one another when gathered together? Weren’t they talking about how violent Lin Jiayi was a moment ago? How in the world did it turn into a discussion about periods?
Besides, Lin Jiayi is actually asking Soft Bun which days she felt unwell… Is she trying to find out about Shi Yao’s menstrual cycle?
It wouldn’t be good for him to listen in to such a private topic amongst them, right?
With such thoughts in mind, the slightly reddened-faced Lin Jiage diverted his gaze away to look out of the window, but yet, his body was clearly inching toward Shi Yao.
“Me?” Shi Yao tilted her head and pondered for a moment before replying, “I think it’s coming soon. It’s usually on 28 or 29 every month. Just a few days more…”
“You have to make sure to keep yourself warm in those few days. Try not to stay under the air-con for too long. If you get chills in your body, your stomach will start to hurt. Also, if you feel unwell in the next few days, remember to drink some brown sugar tea. Aside from that, try to cut down on cold and spicy food. That’ll make you feel a little better… Ah, you have to make sure not to overexert yourself too…”
Hearing the advice that Lin Jiayi was offering Shi Yao, Lin Jiage’s forehead furrowed a little.
He had never known that there were so many things to take note of during those few days when the ladies were feeling unwell.
He pondered for a moment before he picked up his phone, tapped into his notebook, and began typing. By the time he was done taking down notes on everything Lin Jiayi had said, he turned his attention back to the conversation between those two girls, and their conversation had already moved on from periods to soap operas…
Wow, the minds of women sure leap from one place to another fast… Lin Jiage couldn’t help but remark in his heart.
“Oh right, Yaoyao. I just remembered that a partner from France just brought me some chocolates a few days ago. I was intending to give it to you today, but I forgot to bring it along with me. It’s in my office’s fridge at the moment…” As Lin Jiayi had failed to rein in her anger earlier and went on a rampage, she was desperate to mend the impression Shi Yao had of her, so in the end, she made up her mind to head to her office to bring the chocolate over.
“… It happens that there’s a document that I need to bring home from the office, and my office isn’t too far away from here either. Since there’s still a while before grandpa’s birthday banquet comes to an end, I’ll make a trip there right now. Yaoyao, you must wait for me, okay? I’ll bring the chocolates over for you…”
