Lu Ying quickly returned with a hot hot water bottle. Shi Mingyue placed the hot water bottle close to her stomach and said to her comfortingly, "Miss, I'll make you a bowl of brown sugar water. Wait a minute."
Shi Mingyue didn't have the strength to speak anymore, and she responded with a soft hum. She pressed the hot water bottle hard against her stomach, as if that would relieve the pain.
Fu Yueli was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but he could do nothing but watch.
Soon, Lu Ying came in with a bowl of steaming brown sugar water. Fu Yueli helped Shi Mingyue up. Shi Mingyue gulped down the whole bowl and lay down again. Seeing this, Lu Ying advised Fu Yueli: "Your Highness, let the young lady sleep. She will feel better if she sleeps."
Fu Yueli nodded, and Lu Ying also withdrew. He got on the bed, and after thinking about it, he hugged Shi Mingyue.
Soon it was dawn. Fu Yueli saw that Shi Mingyue was sleeping soundly and did not dare to disturb her. She had just fallen asleep and the damn period was tormenting her.
After a long time, Shi Mingyue finally woke up. The pain in her lower abdomen had disappeared without a trace, and she felt refreshed. She moved and found that Fu Yueli's arm was around her waist. They had been sleeping at a distance last night. When she moved, Fu Yueli immediately withdrew his arm from her waist and asked her hurriedly, "You're awake. Does your stomach still hurt?"
Shi Mingyue only then remembered what he had done for her last night. She sat up, looked down at him and said, "It doesn't hurt now. I'm sorry for causing you trouble last night."
Fu Yueli sighed: "I said, thank you and sorry, don't say it to me, you are my wife, these are what I should do."
"Yes," Shi Mingyue realized she had slipped up. Just as she was about to get up, she suddenly realized something else: her period had come suddenly in the middle of the night, and the sheets must have been soiled. If she got out of bed first, Fu Yueli would undoubtedly see the stain, and she would be terribly embarrassed.
So Shi Mingyue lay down again. Fu Yueli had already sat up by then. Seeing her lying down, she immediately became worried: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell again?"
"Ah, a little bit. You get up first, I'll lie down for a while." Shi Mingyue turned over, not wanting Fu Yueli to see her expression at the moment. She just hoped that Fu Yueli would go out quickly so that she could tidy up the sheets.
Fu Yueli quickly got up, changed her clothes, and walked to the door to call someone.
This time it was Hongyin who came. Fu Yueli said calmly, "Mingyue's period is coming, and she's still not feeling well. Lvying made her some brown sugar water last night, and it seems to have helped. Could you please make her another bowl?"
Hongyin felt a little embarrassed. It was taboo for men to know about Xinqi, but Fu Yueli was so calm. She said yes and was about to go to the kitchen when Shi Mingyue called her, "Hongyin! Come here first."
Hongyin heard the young lady's powerful voice. Although she didn't understand why, she still went in. Shi Mingyue waved at her and said, "Come here."
Hongyin leaned over and heard Shi Mingyue whisper to her, "I've soiled the bed sheets. Please send His Highness out first, or I won't be able to get up."
"What's the big deal? Your Highness can't see it."
Shi Mingyue: "..." He could see that he was pretending. But she couldn't tell Hongyin, so she had to explain: "Even if that's the case, I can't adapt to it. Just help me get him away!"
Hong Yin thought that she had no choice but to do so now, so she walked up to Fu Yueli with an unnatural look on her face: "Your Highness, the young lady said she doesn't need brown sugar water anymore, she just wants to sleep for a while, please wash up and go eat."
She thought Fu Yueli was blind, so she didn't try to hide her expression. Fu Yueli saw her unnatural expression and knew that she and Shi Mingyue must be hiding some secret from him, so he said calmly, "Okay."
As soon as Fu Yueli left the room, Shi Mingyue immediately stood up to tidy up the bed sheets. However, just as she lifted the sheets, the door was suddenly pushed open. It was Fu Yueli who came in. He immediately saw the bloodstains on the sheets, but Hongyin was following him, so he couldn't show anything.
Shi Mingyue was almost ashamed of herself. She hid the bed sheet behind her as if trying to cover her ears and steal a bell, and lowered her head with her neck burning red.
Hongyin was the most innocent. She had originally planned to go out for dinner, but after only a few steps, the prince said he had forgotten to bring his forbidden steps. She said she would go back to get them, but Fu Yueli wouldn't let her, insisting she didn't know where she had put them. She also walked very fast, not at all like someone who was blind.
"My forbidden steps are hanging on that shelf. Hongyin, go get them." Fu Yueli ordered.
As soon as the two of them left, Shi Mingyue almost wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground. She was so embarrassed. Even in her previous life, Qin Zheng had never seen her in such an awkward state. That was because he considered Xinqi unlucky and would not sleep with her during those days. How could she have known that Xinqi would come early last night? Otherwise, she would never have let Fu Yueli sleep in the same room with her.
After she finished cleaning, she stayed in the room and didn't dare to go out until Hongyin and Fu Yueli came back and brought her food.
"Miss, it's just been heated up, please eat it quickly." Hongyin put down the plate, turned around and left the room.
Shi Mingyue lowered her head to eat, not daring to look up at Fu Yueli.
Fu Yueli seemed to have been thinking for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Are you injured? Why are you bleeding so much?"
"Cough cough," Shi Mingyue choked on her food and couldn't stop coughing. Fu Yueli hurriedly patted her back.
"Well, that's the menstrual period. It's normal to have blood. I'm not injured. Don't worry." Shi Mingyue was very grateful to Fu Yueli for his concern for her, but she didn't want to explain it too clearly to him.
