Mu Liang carried her to the bathroom and placed her on the bathtub that was filled with cool water. Mu Lan shivered terribly. "It's so cold."
Mu Liang asked, "Did you say that you were feeling hot?"
Mu Lan gave him a warm look. "I would love to ravish your whole body."
Her tone was enough to make his throat dry. Mu Liang gulped and rubbed her head. "Be good and stay here for a while."
Mu Lan avoided his touch and instantly said, "Don't touch me. It makes me want to touch you badly. And it will be better if you cover my eyes. Out of sight, out of mind. As long as I don't see your face or hear your voice, I'll stay calm." She closed her eyes and tried to relax in the bathtub. Her body adjusted in the cold water quickly and she felt more comfortable. Mu Liang silently untied his tie and used it to tie her eyes.
Mu Liang sat down beside her. He didn't want to leave her for a second. Mu Lan said, "I can smell you." He felt nervous hearing her seductive voice. Mu Lan once again said, "Liang Liang, if you don't leave, I will attack you."
Mu Liang coughed awkwardly and walked away before saying, "I'll wait in the bedroom." His tips of the ears were bright red. He didn't forget to close the door.
Fifteen minutes later, when he heard some noises coming from the bathroom, Mu Liang knocked on the door lightly. He called out, "Lan, how are you feeling?"
Mu Lan groaned. She faintly called out, "Liang Liang…"
Mu Liang opened the door and looked inside. Seeing her pained expression, he hurriedly walked towards you. He saw that the water of the bathtub turned red. Mu Lan was soaking in the blood water as she covered her stomach with a painful expression. His heart dropped as he saw that scene.
"Lan, what's wrong?!" He uncovered the tie from her eyes. "Lan, you are bleeding!"
Mu Lan opened her eyes. She looked at him with her misty eyes. "…My stomach hurts…"
Mu Liang carried her out of the bathtub, covered her with a large towel and took her to the bedroom. The white towel turned red. He took off her nightgown and scanned her body. He wanted to check if the red color came from the red night gown or her injury. When he smelled the towel, he was sure that it was her blood.
Mu Lan blushed seeing him so serious. She said, "I'm on my period. Can you buy me a sanitary pad?"
At first, Mu Liang froze on the spot and then, sighed in relief. "Let me see what I can get you." Saying that he covered her with a clean towel and afterwards, he walked away. He looked for sanitary pads in the bathroom but didn't find anything. He was covering Mr. Petrovich now and there was no way he could go out and buy a packet of sanitary pads or ask his men or Li Sheng's men to do it either. After thinking for a moment, he searched on the internet and later took some toilet tissues and folded them properly. After that, he went back to the bedroom and searched through the closet to get underwear. He found a man's underwear. He asked Mu Lan, "Can you wear this underwear?"
Mu Lan opened her eyes and looked at the underwear that was in his hand. Her clothes and undergarments were in the room she was in previously. Now she couldn't go there. For now, she had to use this one. She tried to sit up. Mu Liang assisted her to sit up. He put the folded toilet papers on the underwear before helping her to put it on. He also aided her to put on a shirt. He didn't forget to cover her with the comforter. He rubbed her stomach slowly and asked, "Is it still painful?"
Mu Lan lightly nodded her head in answer. Mu Liang said, "I'll make ginger tea for you. Stay here. If you feel uncomfortable, call me, okay?"
Mu Lan nodded again. He stroked her head for a while before going out of the room. He went to the kitchen. After making the ginger tea, he came back to see her looking outside of the window. He put the cup on the table and asked, "Is there anything you see outside?"
"Tomorrow is a new moon." She replied.
Mu Liang didn't understand what she meant by it. He sat down beside her and said, "Alright, you have to drink this ginger tea to ease your pain."
Mu Lan took the cup and slowly drank as her eyes were looking outside of the window. Mu Liang found it strange but didn't say anything. That night, Mu Lan slept very well. She was hugged by Mu Liang's warm embrace as she slept more than thirteen hours.
In the morning, Mu Liang just took a bath and wrapped his waisted with a white towel. He went to the kitchen and chopped some vegetables to prepare breakfast.
At that time, someone knocked on the main door. Mu Liang wiped his hands and opened the door and found Li Sheng.
Li Sheng was startled seeing Mr. Petrovich half-naked. "D-sid you just take a bath, Mr. Petrovich?" He stammered while asking.
"Hmm." Mu Liang answered shortly and let him enter inside the apartment. Li Sheng looked around and when he didn't see Mu Lan, he asked, "Where is my servant?"
Mu Liang looked at him and said in a chilling voice, "I thought you gave her to me."
Li Sheng immediately corrected himself. "Y-yes, yes, of course, she is yours. I made a mistake. I apologize. It's your servant, not mine. I was worried about her. I didn't know if I taught her well enough to serve you the way you want."
"She is perfect the way she is, Mr. Li." Mu Liang curtly answered.
Li Sheng nodded. "I see, I see. I had something important to tell you. You see, she cannot be taken outside this country for some political reason. How about I give you a mansion in Hong Kong and you keep her there?"
