"Jiang Yan, are you okay?" Lin Xiaohui noticed her unusual demeanor today and asked with concern.
Jiang Yan instinctively reached out to cover her lower abdomen and sighed, "Ugh, there's always a few days like this every month, and today happens to be one of them..."
The volume of her voice was just right for everyone present to hear.
Or perhaps, intentionally so, for Zhang Ruijie and He Tianyu to hear.
Ye Qing, who had also noticed her unusual condition and was about to ask out of concern, immediately blushed and stayed silent upon hearing this.
Lin Xiaohui uttered an "Oh," and said, "I was wondering why you came down so late."
"I still have some brown sugar in my backpack. Since we're not leaving right away, I'll make you a cup of brown sugar water." She offered enthusiastically and was about to start when Jiang Yan grabbed her arm. "Thank you, Doctor Lin, but resting for a bit will be enough."
As she spoke, she subtly signaled to Lin Xiaohui with her eyes.
