Chapter 1149 - She Must Be Dreaming! (2/2)

Wen Xinya shook her head and said, “I’m feeling better now. It’s less painful than before.”

She indeed felt better, though it was still rather painful. The chilliness of her body made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Si Yiyan retrieved a box from his camo uniform and took out a brown pill, which he then fed to Wen Xinya. “Here’s a painkiller that helps with your period. Mrs. Tan prepared it for you.”

Due to the fact that he was afraid that Wen Xinya would suffer to much pain during the stressful military training program, Mrs. Tan made him bring her the pills that she had made using the Traditional Chinese Medicine herbs that Wen Xinya usually drank during her period. Although it would be less effective in the form of a pill, pills were much easier to carry around. To his surprise, he could put it to use so soon.

Wen Xinya pulled a long face in embarrassment. She had already gotten used to Si Yiyan being more concerned with her health than herself.

Not only did he serve her all her meals, but he would also sometimes prepare sanitary pads for her and even discuss its various brands with her.

To him, periods seemed to have become sacred, even though most men found them to be gross and taboo.

Noticing the blank expression on her face, Si Yiyan laughed and exclaimed, “Open your mouth!”

Wen Xinya opened her mouth and ate the pill.

Si Yiyan then fed her with some water. “Drink some water to wash the pill down.”

Wen Xinya swallowed the pill.

Si Yiyan took out another handkerchief and patted away the water droplets beside her lips. “Remember to take this pill once every two hours.”

Wen Xinya nodded and expressed assent before rubbing her face against his chest. She felt extremely at ease despite the cold and stiff fabric of the camo uniform.

Si Yiyan said, “I’ve already told the doctor to give you a medical certificate. For the next five days, you will be excused from military training. Remember to take care of yourself. I’ll get Mrs. Tan to bring you some soup every day.”

Si Yiyan obviously used his personal connections to get that done.

Wen Xinya immediately refuted. “That’s not too appropriate, is it? My cramps may be terrible this time, but I’ve experienced this before. It would hurt for at most three days. Feiyu has already helped me apply for a three-day medical leave. I’ll recover by the time the break is over. I’ll be able to resume training. You don’t have to send me soup every day, either. The food served here is not too bad.”

She would be attracting too much attention if she were to receive soup every day. She was there to undergo military training, not to be a pampered brat.

Si Yiyan said sternly, “Given your current condition, you can actually request to be exempted from the rest of the military training program.”

That means I don’t have a choice. Must he be so tyrannical…

Wen Xinya looked up at Si Yiyan.

The glow in her large eyes seemed to have disappeared together with the moisture. Her eyes were sunken into her eye sockets and she looked extremely pale and haggard. In fact, she appeared weak and gaunt.
