Chapter 236: Pain
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After drinking Chinese medicine for two days, Lu Zhen was about to break down. However, Doctor Liang specially reminded her not to add sugar or water to Chinese medicine.
On this day, after drinking the Chinese medicine, Lu Zhen took a long time to recover and almost vomited the food she had eaten for lunch.
Xiaoxiao also felt sorry for Lu Zhen and encouraged her. “Sister Zhenzhen, just hold on for another week.”
One week?! Lu Zhen’s eyes darkened and she almost fainted.
Xiaoxiao was about to say something when her phone rang. She looked at the message she had received and was stunned. Seeing Xiaoxiao leave in a hurry, Lu Zhen did not think too much about it and lay on the bed to rest.
Actually, she still had two scenes to film, but Director Ding Zhi probably felt quite guilty about her. He scheduled her scenes for the last two days and told her to rest well for the next few days.
Lu Zhen lay on the bed and browsed the news. Suddenly, she felt a swelling and discomfort in her lower abdomen. This feeling was not unfamiliar to her. Her period was coming.
Lu Zhen struggled to get up from the bed. When she straightened her back, there was another cramp in her abdomen. She gasped in pain.
In the past, the day before her period, her stomach would also hurt, but it was not so exaggerated. Why was it so painful this time? Could it be because she had been frozen in the snow a few days ago?
Lu Zhen walked to the bathroom, pasted the sanitary napkins, and lay back on the bed.
The discomfort intensified, and her face turned pale. After dozens of minutes, Lu Zhen curled up on the bed and clenched the bedsheets tightly. The pain rushed over like a tide, as if someone was poking her stomach with a small knife.
There was a knock on the door. Lu Zhen struggled out of bed. When she reached the door, she looked through the peephole.
There was a man standing outside the door, dressed in a black casual suit. The familiar color made Lu Zhen’s heart tremble. She opened the door and saw Song Jia standing outside, looking down at her.
The man looked even more unapproachable in his black clothes, but the indifference in his eyes melted the moment he saw Lu Zhen.
“What’s wrong?” Song Jia saw Lu Zhen’s pale face and frowned, his tone worried.
“I’m fine…” Lu Zhen almost didn’t have the strength to speak. She pulled the door open. “Come in first.”
After Song Jia entered, Lu Zhen rummaged through the cabinet for the hotel slippers. Just as she opened the cabinet door, she felt dizzy and a sharp pain spread from her abdomen to her entire body.
“Be careful!” Song Jia saw Lu Zhen fall and hurriedly hugged her.
Lu Zhen’s consciousness was already a little scattered. Her stomach hurt so much that she felt that she might die in the next second. She panted weakly and lay weakly in Song Jia’s arms.
Song Jia didn’t have time to think. He picked Lu Zhen up by the waist and walked to the bed. He placed her on the bed and touched Lu Zhen’s hand. It was as cold as ice.
Lu Zhen slowly curled up on the bed and became a small ball. Song Jia’s heart ached when he saw this.
Song Jia immediately called Xiaoxiao.
After Song Jia got off the plane, he contacted Xiaoxiao. Initially, he only asked Xiaoxiao to book a nearby hotel for him, but Xiaoxiao went over to pick him up out of courtesy.
After Xiaoxiao received Song Jia, she prepared to go to the supermarket to buy some fresh vegetables and then go to the market to buy a chicken to make soup for Lu Zhen. Lu Zhen’s health had not been good these few days, so Xiaoxiao did not order takeout anymore. She made nutritional meals for Lu Zhen herself.
Song Jia came to the hotel alone, but he did not expect Lu Zhen to faint. After Xiaoxiao picked up the call, she immediately knew what was going on when she heard Song Jia’s description.
Xiaoxiao was extremely anxious. “These few days are her period. It’s probably brought forward. The cold a few days ago had indeed affected her. She has never fainted from the pain before. President Song, there’s a plastic bag in the red bag with ginger sugar inside Use hot water to make a cup of ginger sugar water for her to drink first. I’ll be back soon!”
“Oh, right. There are still heat packs in the box. You need those too.” In a moment of desperation, Xiaoxiao wasn’t so polite as she hurriedly instructed Song Jia.
“Alright, I understand.” After hanging up, Song Jia opened his bag and rummaged through it. He took out the jar containing the cube of ginger candy and two heat packs. After soaking them in hot water, he carried the sugar water to the bed.
“Lu Zhen…” Song Jia called out softly. Lu Zhen forced her eyes open and looked
at him. Seeing that Lu Zhen was still conscious, Song Jia hesitated for two seconds before helping her up from the bed and letting her lean on his shoulder. Then, he picked up the cup filled with hot sugar water. “Drink some sugar water and you’ll feel better..”
