"Why do you look so listless after a good sleep?" Seeing Li Xin coming back, he looked at her expression and asked in confusion.
He came over with the lunch box and was about to hand it to Li Xin, but he saw that her face was a little pale and her lips seemed to have lost their color.
Moreover, after Li Xin came out of the bathroom, he collapsed directly on the chair.
Li Xin felt a heavy pain in his stomach and held his hands over it, feeling very uncomfortable.
Du Peng looked at her clutching her stomach, and as if thinking of something, he pushed Li Xin's thermos cup towards her: "Come on, drink more hot water."
“…” Li Xin took the thermos cup and drank some hot water, but the pain in his stomach did not get much relief and it was still painful.
Du Peng placed the lunch box in front of Li Xin and sat down on the chair next to her.
"Aren't you drinking the health tea prescribed by Xiaoye every day? Why are you still feeling so uncomfortable? It doesn't look much better than last time." The straight science guy's knowledge about women is as lacking as that of a newborn.
Ever since Li Xin had the pain last time, she has been keeping the thermos in her hand. Du Peng looked at the thermos with suspicion, feeling that what she was drinking was fake health tea.
She was like this last time. To be honest, the reason why Du Peng was able to react so quickly was because he had seen it before.
"This matter needs to be treated slowly. I have only been drinking it for more than a month. This is tea, not a miracle drug. How can it work so quickly?" She explained listlessly, holding her stomach.
She looked at the meal that Du Peng brought her, but didn't open it. Her stomach hurt so much that she had no appetite.
Du Peng looked at her for a while and saw tiny beads of sweat on her forehead. He was very worried.
He even thought about his wife. They both had their periods, but he had never seen his wife feel as uncomfortable as Li Xin.
"How about... send you to the clinic? You don't look well right now." Seeing Li Xin in so much pain, Du Peng felt a little helpless.
Now that He Beichen has gone on a mission, Du Peng feels that he has an obligation to help He Beichen take care of the people!
"No need. Just prescribe some painkillers for me. The medicine I was given last time is still at home. If I still feel pain when I get home, I'll take some more medicine." Li Xin shook his head, feeling that there was no need to go to the clinic every time.
She thought that she would put these medicines into the space next time, otherwise she could take the medicines directly and take them now to relieve the pain.
But now I can only drink more hot water and endure the pain that comes from time to time.
"Then you should go back and have some rest. Take some medicine and get some sleep. You don't look like you've had enough rest. There's nothing to do in the institute anyway, so don't stay here." Du Peng said quickly after hearing what she said.
As he spoke, he packed Li Xin's thermos cup and the untouched lunch box, and was about to pull Li Xin away.
"Let's go quickly. I'll talk to you about the drone once you've had a good rest." Du Peng was worried, but he was still thinking about the drone.
"..." Li Xin took the things that Du Peng had packed with a confused look on his face, and held them in his hands. Suddenly, he felt like he was being driven away.
But Du Peng was not wrong. In her current condition, it would be better for her to go home and have a good rest. She would not be able to do anything if she continued to stay in the research institute.
"Okay." Li Xin did not try to be stubborn. After enduring the pain for a while, he picked up his things and prepared to leave.
Du Peng then stood up and closed the open lunch box again.
"Old Du, I can go back by myself. I'm not so weak that I need to be sent away. Just enjoy your meal!" Seeing Du Peng standing up worriedly and preparing to send her off, Li Xin quickly stopped him.
Du Peng sent her out of the institute, and when he saw that Li Xin seemed to be fine, he turned around and went back to the institute.
Li Xin slowly returned home and handed the bag he brought back to Sanmao.
"Master, why did you come back at noon? Are you sick?" Sanmao took the bag and asked with concern.
One could tell from Li Xin's expression that she was uncomfortable.
"It's my period," she explained.
When Sanmao heard this, he put down the bag, walked into the kitchen, and opened the lid of the coal stove.
Li Xin first went to the room to change into more comfortable pajamas, then went to the bathroom and stayed for a while before coming out.
"Master, have some hot water." Sanmao brought over a cup of steaming hot water.
"Thank you... Although I know it's good to drink more hot water, I don't really want to hear this now." Li Xin took the hot water handed by Sanmao and couldn't help but complain.
Sanmao: (?◇?)?
Don’t understand!
Li Xin sat on the sofa drinking hot water, and Sanmao handed him a hot water bottle filled with hot water.
"That's more like it." Li Xin took it with satisfaction and put it on his stomach to warm it. "I remember there's some medicine at home that can relieve the pain. Sanmao, find it for me. I'll take it and rest."
As he spoke, Li Xin placed the cup of water on the coffee table, took off his slippers, and placed his legs on the sofa.
"Master, does your stomach hurt? It seems you never had such pain during your period before?" Sanmao asked in confusion.
But no matter what, Sanmao still hurried to find medicine.
Li Xin was already lying on his side on the sofa, his body slightly curled up, with a hot water bottle covering his stomach.
"That was before. It was my own body, so it definitely didn't hurt... Now this body isn't mine anymore, so it's normal to feel weak."
As he spoke, Li Xin couldn't help but sigh. It had been several months since he started taking supplements. Although he had gained a lot of weight compared to the beginning, he was still thin compared to his peers.
