You’re Beautiful When You Smile

Chapter 41 Part 2

Tong Yao was caught off guard as her eyes met Lu Sicheng’s dark brown
pupils. She lost her footing and fell back onto the soft carpet.

Lu Sicheng: “......”

Lu Sicheng coughed a couple times before speaking: “What are you sneaking
around in my room for?”

Tong Yao: “......”

Tong Yao blinked and felt somewhat mousy under the gaze of those calm eyes.
She was speechless for a short while before remembering what she was there
for in the first place. Tong Yao hurriedly turned to pick up the water cup and
medicine: “I’m here to deliver the medicine. Rui Ge told me to make sure you
take the medicine before going to sleep.”

Tong Yao sat on the carpet cross legged next to the bed and handed the water
cup to Lu Sicheng. She read the direction on the back of the medicine package,
then took out the pills according to the directions and gave to Lu Sicheng.

Lu Sicheng sat up half way and took the medicine: “The water is too hot.”

Tong Yao: “......”

Lu Sicheng: “Get me another one.”

Tong Yao: “You know something?”

Lu Sicheng: “?”

Tong Yao: “You know most women suffer menstrual pains during a few days of
each month. The pain is like someone whipping you with a whip dipped in hot
chili oil a hundred times-- --If you multiply the pain three times that would be the
pain at childbirth, you do know that labor is quite painful, yes? Specifically, how
painful is it? It’s like pulling your upper lip up and over your whole head, something
like that.”

Lu Sicheng: “......”

Tong Yao: “During those few days of the month, even if Godzilla invades the
Earth I would punch him back to the ocean. Simply because he has disturbed
me, unable to keep it quiet.”

Tong Yao: “So, drink water, take the medicine, and don’t make trouble.”

Lu Sicheng was silent for awhile, then he put the pills into his mouth, quietly
sipped water a couple times to send the pills down his throat. Tong Yao sat
on the floor and looked up to make sure he had really swallowed the pills, then
she said in satisfaction: “Drink some more. A sick person needs to drink more
hot water.”

Lu Sicheng drank another mouthful-- --So cooperative, Tong Yao wasn’t sure
whether it was because he had been shaken by Tong Yao’s vivid description.
She hoped so.

Tong Yao stood up to retrieve the water cup. Holding the half empty cup and
medicine next to the bed, she asked the man who was ready to go back to
sleep: “It’s not good to take medicine on an empty stomach. I’ll order delivery,
what do you want to eat?”

Lu Sicheng was silent inside the covers, then said after a few seconds:
“I want to die.”

“..............It’s not like you can’t die, but it’s not the time yet.” Tong Yao heartlessly
said: “If you want to die, you have to die after Lu Yue. Now, what do you want to
eat? Braised Chicken Rice? Hot and Spicy Pot? Japanese food? Or Korean food?”

Just by thinking of those greasy food made Lu Sicheng sick: “You have such a
good appetite even with menstrual pain?”

Tong Yao: “......”

Lu Sicheng: “What’s with you eating Japanese food while having a stomach ache?”

Tong Yao: “I’m asking you. I personally want to have porridge.”

Lu Sicheng: “Oh. I want that too.”

Tong Yao: “I’m thinking of plain porridge with brown sugar.”

“Go ahead and order delivery. Our kitchen has brown sugar. You can add it to
the porridge once it’s delivered here.”
