Chapter 61: Bleeding

Shen Shuman knew that Wei Shi was a medical student. She speculated that after his graduation, he might work at the Hua’en Hospital affiliated with the Suzhou University along with his father.

She pondered as a liberal arts student, what major she should choose in college so that in the future, after graduation, she could be closer to that hospital. The only option she could think of was the People’s Court of Lincang District in Hua’en City, located about two hundred meters from the hospital. Moreover, her parents were prosecutors, and she, influenced since childhood, knew a bit about legal knowledge.

She made up her mind to study law and eventually enter the Lincang People’s Court.

However, due to the events of five years ago, she became a shrinking violet and escaped to the neighboring city, not daring to return for a long time.

Xiao Ran repeatedly claimed that they were friends, so why did he still interfere in this way?!

The more Shen Shuman thought about it, the angrier she became, her chest heaving.

“How could he do this?!” She suddenly burst out, her small face turning red from crying, her body temperature high, like a cooked shrimp just taken out of the pot.

The next day, it was bright.

After Wei Shi finished washing up, he saw that the alarm clock on the bedside table had been ringing for a long time, but there was no sign of her waking up. He climbed onto the bed, softly calling her name.

In her dreams, Shen Shuman faintly heard someone calling her. But she was so sleepy that she couldn’t open her eyes, groaning twice, turning over, and continued to sleep sweetly.

Wei Shi looked at her amusingly, pinched her cheek, and blew air beside her ear.

It was ticklish! Shen Shuman rubbed her ear uncomfortably, and a deep and soothing male voice sounded by her ear, faint and ethereal, as if coming from a distance: “Hurry up, or you’ll be late~”

Late? Her brain lagged for a moment.

Then, like a fake corpse, she suddenly opened her sleepy eyes and bounced off the bed.

“Late!” She panicked, climbed out of bed in a flurry, her waist sore, legs weak, and unexpectedly tumbled.

In the chaos, when she was about to be helped up by Wei Shi, she had already rushed barefooted into the bathroom to freshen up.

“Really…” He helplessly raised a faint smile, seeing her so flustered and busy for the first time.

In just a few seconds, he heard a miserable cry from the bathroom: “Wei Shi! I’m bleeding down there again!”

“What?!” Wei Shi couldn’t laugh anymore.

Last night, after they finished, he had specifically checked when he helped her take a bath.

Her intimate area was just a bit swollen from their activities, with no issues. How could she be bleeding this morning?

With these thoughts, he nervously walked over and knocked on the bathroom door, “Open the door, let me check.”

Shen Shuman looked at the faint bloodstains on the tissue, her brows furrowed.

As she was about to get up to open the door for him, she heard him ask, “When is your menstrual cycle?”

“Around the 10th…” She replied, and the air suddenly fell silent.


Chapter 62: Abstinence

It was a false alarm.

Shen Shuman awkwardly pressed her lips together, padding her underwear with several layers of tissues. After a while, she shyly opened the door and said, “Um, I think it’s my time of the month…”

“Wei Shi, I haven’t prepared sanitary napkins… What time is it now? Can you help me buy some?” She spoke in a softer tone, berating herself for being so foolish. All her efforts to maintain a dignified and elegant lady image had now crumbled in the face of unexpected events.

Wei Shi raised his hand, his slender fingers gently combing through her hair, smoothing out the mess, and casually touching her warm cheeks. “It’s only 7:30 now; you have time, take it easy.”

As soon as Shen Shuman heard the time, her tense nerves relaxed. Suddenly, she heard him ask, “Which brand of sanitary napkins do you use?”

After clarifying the sanitary napkin details with Wei Shi, he went out.

Shen Shuman changed into a proper outfit and sat in front of the mirror to apply makeup.

Having cried a lot last night, her eyes were still slightly swollen. She applied a cold compress with an ice towel for a while, with minimal effect. She had to rely on concealer.

Just after applying the base makeup, she inexplicably thought of the scenes from novels and TV dramas where the male lead awkwardly bought sanitary napkins for the female lead.

She wondered if a man as composed and elegant as Wei Shi would show a shy and embarrassed expression when buying sanitary napkins. Unfortunately, she didn’t go with him; otherwise, she really wanted to see if he would make a fool of himself.

However, Shen Shuman underestimated Wei Shi’s thick skin.

At this time, the supermarket had not yet opened its doors, and even the 24-hour convenience store had few customers.

Wei Shi went straight to the point, calmly picking a few packs of sanitary napkins and heading to the checkout counter.

The cashier, a girl in her early twenties, tired after a night shift, was about to doze off leaning against the counter. “Checkout,” Wei Shi reminded her. Startled, she quickly picked up the sanitary napkins to scan the barcode.

Glancing at Wei Shi, she was instantly mesmerized, unable to look away.

Wei Shi paid no attention to her, reaching for a bottle of milk, and expressionless, said, “Together.”

“Oh? Oh, okay…” She finally snapped out of it, helping him with the payment.

Even after Wei Shi walked out of her sight, she remained captivated by his handsome face, unable to free herself from the enchanting moment.

When Wei Shi returned home, Shen Shuman was applying setting powder to fix her makeup.

“Are you painting a wall?” He couldn’t help but chuckle at her thick foundation.

Shen Shuman gave him a side glance. “If it weren’t for you making me cry so much last night, why would my eyes be swollen? Why would I need such heavy concealer and foundation?”

He handed her the sanitary napkins. “Go change quickly. If it leaks later, your underwear and skirt will get dirty.”

“Hmm~ Did you encounter anything strange when you went to buy sanitary napkins?” She had a mischievous look, as if anticipating a good story.

Wei Shi smirked, somewhat rueful. “Once I entered the convenience store, I felt like I was robbing a bank—nervous and scared. I couldn’t find them for a while, and the cashier kept staring at me, thinking I was a thief or a pervert…”

“I didn’t expect these things to be quite expensive. I didn’t have enough money, and my phone suddenly couldn’t connect to the internet. I had to awkwardly ask an old man behind me for money… Sigh, it was really embarrassing.”

He pretended to be embarrassed, touching his nose.

Before he finished speaking, Shen Shuman burst into laughter. “Who would have thought that the unchangingly handsome Wei would have such a day~”

After saying that, she excitedly went to the bathroom to change her sanitary napkin.

Wei Shi watched the closed bathroom door, his eyes sparkling, and with a slight smile, he softly uttered two words, “Silly girl.” It was surprisingly easy to tease her.

He took off the bed sheet, looking at the dried brown bloodstains. He sighed and soaked it for cleaning.

In the coming week, he would once again be the abstinent monk.
