"I know, but I really can't eat anything now..." Lian Xi had no choice but to compromise and go to eat with Aunt Wang.

After finishing his meal, Lian Xi went back to his study to work.

During this period, Lian Xi has become accustomed to going to bed at nine o'clock every night. If there is something that needs her attention, she will finish the work at hand five minutes earlier.

The time at this moment is exactly half past eight, and there is still about half an hour until nine o'clock.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Lian Xi put down the documents in his hand and prepared to take a break.

But when she picked up the cup of warm honey grapefruit water on the coffee table, she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach.

Lian Xi's face suddenly changed. She covered her stomach, endured the severe pain in her abdomen, and wanted to stand up, but found that she couldn't stand at all.

Lian Xi gritted his teeth, his heart was pounding, beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead, and his whole face looked pale and weak.

How could this happen? She clearly hadn't eaten anything, so why did she suddenly have such a stomachache?

Lian Xi tried hard to control his shaking legs, held onto the edge of the table and barely sat on the sofa, using all his strength to drink up the remaining honey grapefruit water in the cup.

Then he lay down on the sofa again and closed his eyes to rest.

After a while, the pain in her abdomen finally eased, but Lian Xi's face was still covered with cold sweat. She opened her eyes weakly and looked at the clock hanging on the wall.

It's already eight forty.

Lian Xi exhaled lightly, then rubbed his temples, trying to keep himself awake, then took out his computer and notebook from his bag and began to handle official business.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was nine o'clock. Lian Xi turned off the computer, closed the computer, took his bag, walked into the bathroom, washed up briefly, changed his clothes, and prepared to rest.

Lian Xi lay on the bed, closed her eyes and prepared to fall asleep, but soon she heard another muffled groan and she woke up suddenly.

Oops!

She actually forgot that today was her period. No wonder she suddenly had a stomachache just now.

Lian Xi quickly got up, ran to the bathroom, turned on the light, then rummaged through her bag and took some painkillers.

After doing all this, Lian Xi breathed a sigh of relief. She lay down on the bed, covered herself with the quilt, closed her eyes, and wanted to use the effect of the medicine to help herself fall asleep faster, but the more she wanted to sleep, the more she couldn't fall asleep.

Lian Xi frowned and stared at the ceiling with wide eyes.

Lu Sili has been on a business trip recently, leaving me alone at home.

Lian Xi has been feeling unwell these past few days, so he plans to work from home to avoid a similar situation as last night.

So she turned on the TV in the living room, tuned it to the entertainment channel, and planned to spend a long night watching a movie.

I don’t know if it’s because of the painkillers, but this time Lian Xi didn’t have the unbearable abdominal pain like last night. Although he occasionally felt a slight cramp in his abdomen, compared to the tearing pain just now, this little pain was nothing to Lian Xi.

It was not until after two in the morning that Lian Xi finally couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.

At seven o'clock the next morning, Lian Xi woke up from her dream. She raised her arm and touched the empty space next to the pillow, feeling a little lost.

She sat up, put on her slippers, walked to the window and opened the curtains.

The sunlight shone in, casting a warm glow on Lian Xi's face. She squinted her eyes to adjust for a moment, then opened the window, stretched her sore waist, took a deep breath of the fresh air outside, and immediately felt refreshed all over.

Lian Xi stretched lazily, then walked back to the living room, prepared to tidy up, and waited for Aunt Wang downstairs to bring up breakfast.

But just as Lian Xi stood up, he saw Aunt Wang walking in from outside with a plate of fried eggs and a dish of bacon.

"Aunt Wang, why are you here?" Lian Xi was stunned.

"The master asked me to bring you some breakfast." Aunt Wang smiled and put the food on the dining table.

"Thank you, Aunt Wang!" Lian Xi smiled and sat on the dining chair.

Aunt Wang looked at her and said, "Madam, you don't look very well. Are you feeling unwell?"

Hearing this, Lian Xi hurriedly shook his head: "No, I'm fine. Maybe I just haven't had enough rest recently."

Aunt Wang had no doubts. After all, Lian Xi had always been in good health. Unless he was sick, he would never look haggard.

Aunt Wang nodded, and then reminded: "Since the young lady is not feeling well, the young master must be worried, so I specially cooked some red dates and ginger sugar water to replenish the young lady's blood."

"Well, thank you Aunt Wang."

After saying that, Lian Xi picked up the red dates and ginger syrup, lowered her head and took a sip. The taste was sweet and refreshing.

"Aunt Wang, I'm going to work first." After Lian Xi finished drinking the red dates and ginger syrup in the bowl, he put down the spoon, stood up and walked out.

"Hey, Madam, please slow down." Aunt Wang shouted from behind.

Lian Xi waved his hand: "It's okay."

Lian Xi got into the car, fastened his seat belt, started the engine and left the villa.

On the way, Lian Xi received a call from Lu Sili, who asked her how her day was, and Lian Xi told him the truth.

"I'm fine. I feel like I've recovered today. Maybe I was just too tired." Lian Xi explained.

After hearing this, Lu Sili breathed a sigh of relief and asked her, "Are you busy tonight?"

"No..." Lian Xi just said one word, and suddenly remembered that he had to go to a party today, and then immediately changed his words: "Uh, something happened."

"What's the matter?" Lu Sili asked.

"Ahem..." Lian Xi coughed awkwardly twice, then explained, "Actually, I want to attend a friend's party."

"Male or female?" Lu Sili asked indifferently.

Lian Xi hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "It's a female friend."

"Oh, then go ahead."

"Do you agree?" Lian Xi asked in surprise.

Lu Sili hummed calmly, and then said: "Be careful."

Lian Xi blinked his eyes, a ripple appeared in his heart, and a slight arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Well, I know. You should go to bed early too. Good night."

"Good night."

After hanging up the phone, Lian Xi stuffed the phone back into his bag and continued driving seriously.

About half an hour later, Lian Xi arrived at a high-end club in the city. She stopped the car, got out, took out her cell phone and dialed Song Yuqing's number.

"Hello?" Song Yuqing's voice came from the other end of the phone, and it could be heard that she was very tired at the moment.

Lian Xi couldn't help but frowned, and his tone became more serious: "What are you doing?"

"Go sleep at home. I'm so tired after working all day." Song Yuqing complained.
