Chapter 87: Zhu Zhuqing's Period Arrives; Women Have Those Few Days Every Month

“I have a good understanding of the Star Luo Empire’s imperial family and your Zhu family. As for how I know, you don’t need to know. There are only three direct female descendants of the Zhu family who are marrying into the imperial family in this generation.”

“The Zhu family’s eldest young miss, Zhu Zhuyun, is engaged to the Star Luo Empire’s first prince, Dai Weisi. The Zhu family’s second young miss, Zhu Zhuyu, is engaged to the second prince, but both of them died in the competition for the heir’s position, didn’t they?”

“There’s only one left, and that’s the Zhu family’s fourth young miss, Zhu Zhuqing, engaged to the Star Luo Empire’s third prince, Dai Mubai. Looking at your age, I deduce that you are Zhu Zhuqing. Do you understand?”

Ye Wen’s explanation was well-reasoned, and Zhu Zhuqing finally lowered her guard. A hint of apology flashed in her eyes, and she took the initiative to apologize, “I’m sorry, I was being overly suspicious. My apologies.”

“It’s fine, I understand,” Ye Wen said indifferently, turning to continue walking forward.

“You’re injured and weak, so don’t go directly to that godforsaken Shrek Academy. Come with us to Soto City first.”

“Go to Soto City to rest well and recover from your injuries. We also plan to go to Soto City first, rest for a day, and then go to Shrek Academy,” Ye Wen said.

Zhu Zhuqing was a little surprised and asked, “Are your goals also to join Shrek Academy?”

“Sort of.”

Ye Wen replied, if Tang San and Xiao Wu had already joined Shrek Academy, he would have to sneak in as a student to subdue Xiao Wu.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to get in. If something could be solved in human form, it was best to use human form.

“After resting in Soto City for a day, if you don’t mind, you can go to Shrek Academy with us then. If you don’t want to, you’re on your own.”

“Mm, thank you, I understand,” Zhu Zhuqing nodded faintly, following Ye Wen’s footsteps towards Soto City.

“Oh no, why now…”

As they walked, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly stopped, her face changed, and after a moment of hesitation, she called out to Ye Wen with great embarrassment, “Wait, can you wait for me?”

“What is it now?” Ye Wen turned his head, asking with a puzzled expression.

Zhu Zhuqing’s expression at this moment was extremely awkward, embarrassed, and with a hint of pain, which made Ye Wen even more confused. He walked up to her and asked, “Your face looks off. Did you leave a serious wound somewhere?”

He was a little confused. He had been observing the battle just now, and most of the injuries were internal, with external injuries being minor issues.

“No, no, it’s not,” Zhu Zhuqing said, her face red, truly too embarrassed to speak.

She had been fine just now, but it had suddenly arrived. She had roughly guessed it would be these few days, but she hadn’t expected it to be at this moment.

“Then what is it??” Ye Wen asked with a face full of question marks.

“I, I, sigh, anyway, can you wait for me? Please!” After speaking, a patch on Zhu Zhuqing’s pants was already stained red with blood.

Ye Wen also saw the blood-stained area on Zhu Zhuqing and instantly understood, “Oh, I thought it was something serious. So it’s your period! You should have said so earlier! Go take care of it, we’ll wait for you.”

“You! You, you guy, you know, why would you still say it~~” Zhu Zhuqing immediately became shy, her face flushing crimson.

Didn’t he know that such a thing was extremely embarrassing and difficult for a girl to talk about?

He actually said it out loud.

Seriously!

Zhu Zhuqing was so embarrassed she quickly covered her stomach and turned to jog into the nearby bushes.

“Hey, that’s enough, you don’t need to go too deep, we won’t peek,” Ye Wen called out from a distance.

“This guy.” Zhu Zhuqing’s face was beet red. She also blamed herself for it not coming earlier or later, but precisely at this moment.

Moreover, every time it came, she would be in great pain that day, and it would only get much better by the second day. The first day was almost so painful that walking was very inconvenient.

“Evil Tiger, let’s sit and wait.”

“Mm.”

Evil Tiger nodded, and the two brothers found a stone by the roadside to sit down and wait.

As a result, they waited for over half an hour before Zhu Zhuqing stumbled out.

She had already changed her clothes and put on a sanitary pad, but her complexion was still not very good. She held her stomach and walked out slowly, almost shuffling.

“Sorry, I… I might…” Zhu Zhuqing stammered, a bit unsure how to speak.

Ye Wen already understood the situation. Having lived in Tianshui Academy, which was full of girls, for so many years, how could he not know that for some girls, those few days each month would be very painful, while for others, it would only be a little, almost without affecting them.

And Zhu Zhuqing was clearly the type with severe dysmenorrhea, coupled with her existing internal injuries, she definitely couldn't walk.

He looked at the sky and said, “Never mind, it’s getting dark now. By the time we reach Soto City, it’ll be almost midnight. Let’s find a place nearby to camp and spend the night.”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing’s heart warmed. She, who had always been cold and aloof, for the first time showed a hint of a smile towards Ye Wen: “Thank you.”

“It’s nothing, let’s go, we’ll find a grassy spot and set up a tent.”

“Okay.”

The three left the road and entered the surrounding grass, then found a clean, large green lawn, intending to set up two tents and temporarily spend the night there.

“You just sit and rest, I’ll set up the tents.” Ye Wen had almost everything in his spatial spirit tool, so he took out two tents, as well as a spirit tool that could automatically heat water, and an unopened bottle of water.

Then he handed it to Evil Tiger: “Evil Tiger, boil some hot water for her.”

“Oh, alright, Boss.”

Evil Tiger poured the water into the automatically heating kettle spirit tool, and soon, the water began to boil.

In less than two minutes, the water was boiling, steaming hot.

“How amazing, you actually have this kind of spirit tool,” Zhu Zhuqing said, her clear, bright eyes wide with novelty.

“Haha, I have plenty of these things,” Ye Wen chuckled. When it came to life-support spirit tools, he could say he had almost everything.

“Plenty!?” Zhu Zhuqing was startled. Who exactly was he? What was his background?

Zhu Zhuqing was now very curious. To cultivate to a Spirit Ancestor at such a young age, she could guess that his background was likely not simple, and he also had many spirit tools.

She knew that even life-type spirit tools were rare throughout the continent because the craftsmanship for spirit tools had long been lost.

“Come on, drink some more hot water, it will help you with this,” Ye Wen said, pouring the hot water into a cup and handing it to Zhu Zhuqing.

Such care wasn't overly grand.

But for someone from a cold family like the Zhu family, even this kind of care made Zhu Zhuqing feel very warm.
