“Stop your nonsense and quickly take a look.” Li Jingran’s attitude was a little impatient.

Song Qingchen rolled his eyes at him and then resumed his good working attitude. He asked, “Miss, where are you feeling uncomfortable? Give me your symptoms so that I can diagnose you.”

Xu Wanwan was completely confused, initially thinking initially that she was in such a condition because of the pain that only when the man had neared her did she manage to react.

How could she be muddleheaded by the pain? She was just genuinely confused!

The man wearing gold-framed glasses in front of her had a cold and indifferent face with gold-framed glasses, and the white coat he was wearing was particularly eye-catching.

The corner of her mouth twitched, and she subconsciously wrapped her arms around her body. “Who… Who are you?”

“This is my friend.” Li Jingran squatted down and said in a softer tone, “He’s a doctor. Let him give you a checkup.”

Li Jingran then glared at Song Qingchen after saying that. “Manage your expression well. Don’t scare her.”

“Hmm, what’s the relationship between the two of you?” Song Qingchen realized that something about the situation was fishy. He turned to look at Xu Wanwan meaningfully. “Girlfriend?”

Li Jingran’s face darkened. “I asked you over as a doctor.”

“Okay, okay. We’ll talk later.” Song Qingchen slowly turned professional and asked patiently, “Young lady, where are feeling uncomfortable?”

Xu Wanwan bit the corner of her lips and looked troubled.

What had she done that so wrong?

She actually had to tell two men about her menstrual cramps?

Song Qingchen saw that she had not spoken for a while and that she was covering her stomach with her hands. He instantly guessed, “Are you on your period?”

Xu Wanwan suddenly looked up and stared at the man in front of her with a look of disbelief.

How did he know?!

Song Qingchen chuckled when he saw her reaction. “This is a normal physiological phenomenon. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about.”

“I’ll give you some medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. You’ll get better after drinking it. Keep yourself warm and avoid cold drinks, got it?”

Xu Wanwan lowered her head and hummed.

“Here, this is the medicine.” Song Qingchen took out two boxes and handed them to Li Jingran. Seeing his serious face, he teased, “Look at what’s wrong with you as a boyfriend. You can’t even remember your girlfriend’s period.”

Li Jingran took the pills in one go, the expression on his face looking extremely displeased. “You can leave now.”

“Director Li, aren’t you being too unethical to me? I came all the way here, and you didn’t even treat me to a meal?”

Li Jingran couldn’t be bothered with him. He opened the medicine box and popped out a few small pills. He looked at Xu Wanwan. “Open your mouth.”

Xu Wanwan clutched the corner of her clothes as she was forced to meet the man’s gaze. Under his serious gaze, she had no choice but to open her mouth.

Anyway, she had already lost all her face today, so she didn’t mind this time…

The pill was so bitter that it caused her to swallow the wrong way. Xu Wanwan immediately grabbed the cup in her hand and gulped down several mouthfuls of water.

She drank so quickly that she choked until she coughed, and tears uncontrollably flowed out.

“Why are you so careless?” Li Jingran frowned slightly and scolded her. His mouth was blaming, but his hand was honest as he patted the girl’s back. His gaze was inexplicably gentle. “Feeling better?”

Xu Wanwan raised her hand to wipe the corner of her lips and nodded at the man.

Song Qingchen had no intention of packing his things. He couldn’t even look directly at Li Jingran now.

Was this still the same cold mountain that he knew?

He really didn’t expect that Li Jingran was capable of showing a nervous and worried look for a girl in his life.

He thought that that guy was an iceberg that wouldn’t melt for a thousand years.

Song Qingchen could not hold it in anymore. He covered his mouth and chuckled. He gave Xu Wanwan a thumbs up. “I’m impressed! You did something that had never even crossed my mind. You actually managed to move Li Jingran, this big rock.”

Xu Wanwan looked at him at a loss and did not know what to say.

Li Jingran stood in front of Xu Wanwan, looked at Song Qingchen, and said in a rude manner, “The payment has been transferred to your card. If you don’t leave now, I’ll call someone.”

“It’s been so many years. When will you change your temper?” Song Qingchen complained as he walked out. “You have a girlfriend now, but you’re still like this.”

Li Jingran couldn’t be bothered with him. He picked up his coat on the back of the chair and looked down at Xu Wanwan. “Can you still walk?”

A big question marked popped in Xu Wanwan’s heart.

She was just on her period. Her legs were not broken.

“Yes, I can.” Xu Wanwan supported herself on the sofa to get up to avoid embarrassment. “Then I won’t disturb you while you’re working.”

She was about to leave when her wrist was grabbed by the man. “Go home and rest.”

“Huh?”

“It’s time to go home.”

Xu Wanwan thought she was so confused that she couldn’t even tell the time, but the clock on the wall indicated that it was three o’clock in the afternoon.

There was still a long time before work ended…

Li Jingran didn’t let go of her hand. With one hand, he put his coat over her shoulder and said in a deep voice, “Let’s go. The driver is waiting outside.”

Xu Wanwan subconsciously struggled, but she was too weak that Li Jingran tightened his grip on her wrist.

She had no choice but to be pulled along by the man, walking out of the company under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Back at the Li family home, Li Jingran brought her to her room to rest and then went to finish his work.

Xu Wanwan was lying on the bed, feeling bored. After playing with her phone for a while, she got up and found a book about programming.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

She held the book and went to open the door. When she saw the servant at the door holding a bowl, she smiled. “Miss Xu, Director Li asked me to prepare red date and ginger tea for you. Drink it while it’s hot.”

Xu Wanwan’s forehead twitched. She took the bowl of hot ginger tea and said, “Thank you, Mama Wang.”

“No need to thank. Don’t mention it.” Mama Wang was particularly enthusiastic. She asked a few more questions. “Miss Xu, is your stomach hurting from that? I have a prescription here. If you need it, just let me know.”

“Well, I’ve already taken a medicine. I’m not feeling unwell.”

“That’s good. Oh right, Director Li also asked me to ask you what you would like to eat tonight.”

Xu Wanwan casually said, “Clear broth noodle soup.”

“Alright, you can rest first. I’ll go prepare it now.”

After Mama Wang left, XuWanwan held the bowl of ginger tea and sipped it down.

A warm current flowed from her throat to her stomach, making her stomach feel warm and much more comfortable.

When she got tired from reading, she went to bed to lie down.

However, after lying down for a while, she fell asleep.

In the Li family study room.

Li Jingran was holding two proof reports in his hands. He read them carefully several times and frowned.

He did not expect Xu Wanwan to have such profound foresight. The problems pointed out in these two reports were not something that ordinary people could discover.

The national policy development report predicted that in the next twenty years, bridges and roads would be built in coastal areas to create the foundation for urban construction.

The business development plan would veto the development of commercial buildings. In that area where every inch of land was expensive, if commercial buildings were developed, it would inevitably affect other enterprises in the coastal areas and cause dissatisfaction among the people.

One was the country, and the other was the people.

For businesses that want to grow in the long run, these two factors can neither be offended.
