Chapter 73: Cooking by Himself?
Seeing the sanitary pads piled on the floor, along with all the different kinds of food Mo Ziyang bought to help ease the pain during her period, Lin Muxi didn’t even know how to thank him.
Not only did he not get angry at her, but he also went out of his way to buy her things.
Thinking back to how she had gotten mad at her “good bro,” Lin Muxi felt deeply ashamed and guilty. After all, every time it was always Mo Ziyang who put up with things and took care of her.
But still… why did he buy so many sanitary pads?
“I didn’t know which one was better, so I just bought one pack of each,” Mo Ziyang explained when he saw Lin Muxi’s confused look.
“Ah… this…” Lin Muxi was stunned.
As expected of her good bro, if money could solve it, then it wasn’t really a problem. Although, his way of thinking was a bit unusual.
“Hurry and grab one to change into, and remember to also change your dirty clothes.”
Mo Ziyang carried the things into her house and urged the silly girl to hurry and use them. After all, girls should be even more careful about their hygiene and health during their period.
“Got… got it…”
Hearing him say that, Lin Muxi felt a little embarrassed. She quickly grabbed a pack, face blushing, and ran into the bathroom.
After closing the door, she leaned against it, trying hard to calm her heart that was suddenly beating so fast.
Once she settled down a little, she took off her bloodstained pajama pants and underwear and tossed them aside.
The sight of all the blood made her not even dare to look.
“Sigh… a girl’s body really is troublesome…”
Looking at the mess on her lower half, Lin Muxi gasped and couldn’t help but sigh.
With so much blood, shouldn’t she actually go to the hospital…?
After using tissues to roughly clean the blood on her thighs and skin, Lin Muxi suddenly realized she had forgotten to bring in clean clothes.
Oh no… she had been so embarrassed just now that she only cared about running away from her good bro.
But what could she do now? She couldn’t put those bloody clothes back on and walk out.
In the end, Lin Muxi had no choice but to ask her good bro for help.
“Mo Ziyang—!”
Mo Ziyang, who had just finished moving things and was tidying up, suddenly heard Lin Muxi calling from inside the bathroom.
He thought this silly girl had gotten herself into some trouble again. So he quickly stopped what he was doing and walked over to the bathroom door.
“What happened? Did something go wrong?” He knocked on the door twice, sounding a little anxious.
“I… I forgot to bring my clean underwear and pajama pants. Can you grab them from my room?”
“Alright, wait there.”
As expected of a silly girl, how could she forget something like that…
Mo Ziyang felt a little speechless. He thought something serious had happened inside.
And it turned out to be just this?
He went to Lin Muxi’s room and casually picked up a pair of pajama pants and underwear.
Then he knocked on the bathroom door again.
“I’m here, I’m here…”
With a click, the lock turned.
From the small crack of the opened door, a little head slowly popped out, face blushing red.
“Here… do you want me to take out the dirty clothes?”
Handing the clothes to Lin Muxi, Mo Ziyang asked her.
“Uh… better not. I’ll wash them myself later.”
After saying that, Lin Muxi quickly grabbed the clothes and shut the door in a hurry, afraid her good bro would say something more.
Those clothes were already stained with her period blood. To let her good bro handle them felt way too strange to her.
And besides, how could she just hand over something like that? She really couldn’t accept it.
Mostly… she just wanted to save her dignity.
“This silly girl…” Mo Ziyang chuckled as he looked at the closed door, then went back to sort the things he bought.
Inside the bathroom, Lin Muxi carefully opened the package, pulled one pad out, and held it in her hand, studying this strange item.
Earlier, when she had searched online, she had also learned how to use it.
So, after putting the pad properly in place, she quickly put on her underwear, then her new pajama pants. Finally, she opened the door and walked out of the bathroom.
“Finished changing?” Mo Ziyang raised his eyebrows when he saw her come out.
He was a bit surprised that Lin Muxi wasn’t panicking at all. After all, most girls the first time they saw this would be shocked and scared.
“Mm, done.” Lin Muxi slowly walked to his side.
Seeing her stand there looking all nervous and helpless, Mo Ziyang squatted down and gently placed both hands on her belly, massaging it softly.
“Mm…”
“Does it hurt a lot? Are you really uncomfortable?”
Hearing Lin Muxi’s voice, Mo Ziyang thought he had pressed too hard and hurt her, so he looked worried.
“No… it doesn’t…”
Lin Muxi shook her head. Looking at her good bro massaging her stomach, her cheeks slowly turned pink.
“You really… sigh.”
After rubbing her belly a few more times, Mo Ziyang let out a long sigh.
Then he picked Lin Muxi up, carried her into her room, and tucked her into bed.
He sat on the edge of the bed and gently patted her head.
“If it hurts, you have to tell me. I even bought two boxes of medicine for pain relief.”
“Don’t worry, I’m fine. It’s just a little blood.”
Afraid he would worry too much, Lin Muxi rolled over and rested her head on his lap.
She smiled brightly at the man in front of her, who not only didn’t get angry but even came back to take care of her so gently.
“You… you really never let your good bro rest easy.”
“Hehe, well, you are my good bro. If you take advantage, shouldn’t you take responsibility too?”
“You little brat…” Mo Ziyang was amused by the girl lying on his lap, so he lightly tapped her head.
“Alright, have a good rest. Maybe on the first day it doesn’t hurt much, but if it does later, remember to call me. I’ll go finish tidying up.”
“Mm, okay.”
As the door closed behind him—
Lin Muxi, lying in bed, couldn’t hold back anymore. Her face flushed red, she hugged the blanket and rolled around in embarrassment.
She had to admit, when Mo Ziyang was gentle, even she couldn’t resist.
Gradually, because her body was weak and she had gotten up too early that morning, sleepiness started to take over.
Curling up in bed, hugging the blanket tightly, Lin Muxi fell asleep with a sweet smile on her face.
Meanwhile, in the living room, Mo Ziyang had just finished putting away everything he bought.
After resting for a bit, he walked into Lin Muxi’s kitchen.
Looking around, although the kitchen was small… it was still usable.
Mo Ziyang frowned a little. Clearly, he had no choice but to use what was there. This wasn’t his own house after all.
So, he took out a small pot, then pulled out the red dates, goji berries, eggs, and brown sugar he had bought. Finally, he picked up a piece of ginger, grabbed a cutting board and a knife.
His skilled knife work made it hard to believe this young master from a wealthy family was standing there chopping like a professional.
But if it weren’t for a certain silly girl who always made him worry, he wouldn’t be cooking here in Lin Muxi’s house today.
He placed the chopped dates and ginger into the pot, along with the goji berries, brown sugar, and two eggs. He set the heat to medium and even set a timer.
Only then did he relax on the living room sofa, waiting for the sweet soup to be ready.
He wondered if that girl would end up in terrible pain later.
