Chapter 1402: The Blackened Good Girl (37)

“It’s your period, right?”

After releasing Tang Guo’s slender, fair wrist, Qiao Ge spoke with a serious expression. “Does your stomach hurt like this every time your period comes?”

“Yes.”

Tang Guo wasn’t lying. According to the original memories, this body really did suffer from menstrual pain every time. Fortunately, her family conditions were good and her lifestyle habits were healthy, so the symptoms weren’t severe. Still, whenever her period came, she would become very weak, accompanied by mild pain. For those couple of days, she would be listless and her complexion would worsen. If she failed to replenish her nutrition in time, she would even become dizzy.

“I’ll make you a cup of brown sugar water first.”

Seeing the slight paleness on the little girl’s face, Qiao Ge inexplicably felt a pang of heartache.

It must be because she was such a well-behaved girl, yet had to suffer through something like menstruation. He simply sympathized with her.

Right, that had to be it.

There was no other reason.

He always kept brown sugar in the clinic. Girls these days simply didn’t take care of themselves.

There were even plenty who ate cold foods during their periods, and whenever he saw that sort of thing, he would scold them fiercely.

As he prepared the brown sugar water, he casually asked, “You haven’t eaten anything cold these past couple of days, have you?”

“No.”

Qiao Ge nodded. “And don’t touch cold water either.”

“Okay.”

He let the drink cool for a while, then handed it to Tang Guo when it had reached a suitable temperature. “Drink some first. It’ll ease the symptoms a little. Your condition isn’t too bad. I’ll prescribe some medicine, and then…”

Qiao Ge hurriedly swallowed the rest of his sentence. He had almost blurted out that massaging the lower abdomen would help relieve the symptoms considerably.

“And then what, Big Brother?” Tang Guo asked seriously.

Seeing her eager, studious expression, Qiao Ge nearly lost his composure.

Massage her?

There was no way he could do that.

She was still just a little girl, and he was only a few years older than her. If word got out, what would happen to her reputation and studies?

Besides, hadn’t she said last time that they shouldn’t get too close because it would affect her reputation and her studies?

So Qiao Ge turned around, took out a booklet, and placed it in front of Tang Guo. Maintaining a solemn expression, he said, “There’s a massage technique in here. Take it back and have a look. Follow the instructions and massage yourself at home tonight. Do it every time your period comes, and the symptoms will gradually improve. I’ll prescribe some medicine too. Next time, it shouldn’t be this severe.”

System: Host, he’s a man with principles. You’re still a little girl. Even if his feelings are different, he still has things he insists on. Host, your big cutie really is adorable. Boys who are this principled and respectful toward girls are rare these days. I think… give it another two years, and he probably won’t be so restrained.

Tang Guo: Never had she imagined that one day she would be looked down upon by the System.

“Okay, Big Brother. You’re really kind.”

Tang Guo had no intention of making things difficult for Qiao Ge. She simply found this guy somewhat interesting and had suddenly felt like coming over to see him.

Qiao Ge quietly let out a sigh of relief. “If you feel uncomfortable anywhere else, come find me.” He guaranteed that whatever the illness, the medicine would cure it.

“Mhm.”

In the end, after finishing the brown sugar water, Tang Guo returned to the classroom carrying the booklet Qiao Ge had given her on lower-abdomen massage along with some medicine. She spent the entire day smiling happily.

The classmates couldn’t understand why Tang Guo was in such a good mood, but seeing her so cheerful made them happy as well.
