Shocking! The actress was dragged to the regent's bedchamber every night.

Chapter 165 Brown Sugar Water

Su Wuli opened her mouth and explained softly, "It's... that thing that comes every month... my period..."

Only then did the man realize, "How long?"

She paused for a moment before answering, "Usually four or five days."

Yu Chen was silent for two seconds, then carried her into the bedroom.

He carried her into the bathroom and put her down by the sink.

"Can you do it yourself?" Yu Chen asked. "Or should I—"

"Okay." Realizing what he was about to say, Su Wuli quickly interrupted.

He glanced at her, then turned and left, closing the door behind him.

Su Wuli stood in the bathroom, listening to his footsteps fade into the distance before she began to take off her clothes.

The pain in my lower abdomen became more pronounced when the hot water came down.

I glanced down and saw that the quantity was greater and the color was darker than yesterday.

Su Wuli frowned but didn't think much of it and continued taking a shower.

I was halfway through washing when I suddenly remembered that I hadn't brought my pajamas.

I didn't even take my underwear.

I didn't even take the sanitary napkins.

She stared at the bath towel in the bathroom for a few seconds, then wrapped herself in it.

But I've had a lot of milk today, what if I get wet while walking...?

Just as I was thinking this, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen.

Su Wuli quickly leaned against the wall to wait for the pain to pass, but the next second a warm current gushed out from below her.

She froze, then quickly lowered her head.

He then breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it didn't leak out, but it definitely wouldn't have been safe to go outside.

Su Wuli stood in the bathroom, caught in a dilemma. After hesitating for a moment, she finally called out to him.

"Yu Chen..."

After a moment of silence outside, a man's voice came through the door, "What's wrong?"

Su Wuli then stammered, "I forgot to bring my pajamas..."

There was no sound outside.

She continued, "And underwear...and that..."

"Which one?" Yu Chen asked through the door.

"Sanitary napkins..." Su Wuli said, and then there was silence outside for a few seconds.

Then came Yu Chen's puzzled voice, "What are sanitary napkins?"

"It's the thing women use when they have their period..." Su Wuli explained, "It's in the bottom drawer of the wardrobe..."

There was a moment of silence outside, then a voice said, "Wait."

She could hear the sounds of things being rummaged through outside from inside the bathroom.

After a while, there was a knock on the bathroom door.

Su Wuli opened a crack and reached out her hand; Yu Chen handed her the item.

Pajamas, underwear, and a bag...

She glanced down and saw that it was indeed a sanitary napkin.

He found it.

Su Wuli took it and closed the door.

When she changed her clothes and went out, he was waiting for her at the bathroom door.

His gaze fell on her, and he frowned. "You don't look well."

Upon hearing this, Su Wuli paused for a moment and touched her face.

It is indeed a bit chilly.

But he waved his hand and said, "It's nothing."

He looked at her without saying anything, which made Su Wuli feel that he didn't quite believe what she had just said.

He then picked her up by the waist and placed her on the bed.

As I lay down on the soft bed, the pain in my lower abdomen returned.

It's more noticeable than before, coming in waves, a throbbing pain.

Su Wuli curled up and huddled under the covers.

Yu Chen sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her. "What's wrong?"

She bit her lip and whispered, "It hurts..."

His brow furrowed even more, and he leaned down to ask, "Where does it hurt?"

Su Wuli pointed to her stomach, her face showing vulnerability due to the pain.

Yu Chen looked at her, a hint of confusion in his eyes.

It's obvious that women experience pain during menstruation.

Without saying a word, he reached out and pulled her out of the blanket and hugged her.

Su Wuli leaned against his chest, sitting on his lap with her body curled up.

His large hand landed on her stomach, his palm pressed against the thin nightgown.

It's very hot.

His hand didn't move; it just sat there.

After a while, he tentatively rubbed it.

Su Wuli didn't say anything, but just nuzzled against his neck.

He rubbed it again with his large hand, this time with a little more pressure, slowly rubbing it in circles.

His palms were very hot, and the burning sensation transmitted through the fabric seemed to dissipate a little.

Su Wuli leaned against him, easing some of the pain, and closed her eyes.

"Are you still feeling unwell?" Yu Chen asked softly.

"Um……"

He didn't say anything more, he just continued to rub.

He held her in his arms, his hand gently rubbing her stomach.

The pain gradually subsided a little, but it was still uncomfortable.

Su Wuli leaned against him, her eyes closed, and remained motionless.

"It hurts so much..." he asked in a low voice, "Do you want to take some medicine?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wuli paused for a moment and opened her eyes.

take medicine?

She remembered the pile of medicine she had bought last time.

At that time, I thought he was under house arrest and was afraid that he would get sick and have no medicine, so I bought a lot of medicine and brought it with me.

Ibuprofen was in it too.

He has all the medicine now, but she doesn't have any.

Besides... she didn't really want to take the medicine.

She thought for a moment and suddenly remembered that there was brown sugar in the kitchen.

I grabbed it while shopping at the supermarket last time and haven't opened it yet.

"No need for medicine, just drink some brown sugar water."

Brown sugar water?

"Mm." Su Wuli nodded.

Yu Chen put her down from his arms and gently placed her on the bed.

"Wait."

He stood up and was about to leave.

Su Wuli lay on the bed watching his back, then suddenly reached out and grabbed the hem of his clothes.

The man stopped and turned to look at her.

She opened her mouth to ask, "Can you?"

He paused for a moment before speaking, "I can investigate."

After saying that, he picked up the tablet from the bedside table.

Su Wuli was stunned by his actions. Before she could say anything, Yu Chen had already walked out.

Lying in bed watching him about to leave, she suddenly called out again, "Yu Chen..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stopped in his tracks and turned around.

"I don't want to be alone..." Su Wuli said softly.

After he finished speaking, he pondered for a moment, then walked back and lifted her out of bed.

Yu Chen carried her out of the bedroom and put her down on the sofa in the living room.

She sank into the sofa, and he casually grabbed a cushion to put behind her back.

"Wait here."

"Okay." Su Wuli nodded obediently.

Yu Chen then turned and walked towards the kitchen, while she leaned back on the sofa and watched his back.

Su Wuli heard the sound of him opening the cabinet door.

She could see his profile from the kitchen doorway by turning her head to the side.

The man stood in front of the kitchen counter, holding brown sugar in his hand.

He looked down at the pot beside him, his brows furrowing slightly.

Then I picked up the tablet and swiped a few times, looking down at the screen.

Su Wuli looked at his obviously awkward movements and suddenly felt like laughing.

The cold-faced regent, whom no one dared to offend, was now standing in her small kitchen, using a tablet to look up how to make brown sugar water.

Suddenly, something soft and tender welled up inside me, and I felt a lump in my throat.

Su Wuli couldn't resist picking up her phone and opening the camera.

Yu Chen was opening the pot lid and pouring water into it.

His movements were a little clumsy, and some water splashed out, but he glanced down at it and didn't pay any attention.

He saved the photos and continued.

When he turned on the gas stove and the flame shot up, he paused for a moment and stared at the ball of fire for two seconds.

Then he turned down the heat and put the lid on the pot.

Seeing this, Su Wuli couldn't help but take another picture.

Then I saw him turn around and get a bowl.

It took several tries to open the cupboard door, and the bowls inside clinked together with a crisp sound.

I put a bowl on the counter and then picked up a spoon.

Su Wuli looked down at the photos she had taken, and couldn't help but smile.

Yu Chen opened the bag of brown sugar and poured some into the bowl. After pouring, he looked at the tablet and poured a little more.

The water has boiled.

He lifted the lid and poured in the brown sugar.

The rising steam blurred his face.

Su Wuli looked at his unprepared expression, pursed her lips to suppress a laugh, but the next second she frowned and raised her hand to cover her stomach.

He slowly stirred the pot with a spoon.

Su Wuli calmed down a bit and simply put down her phone to look at him.

Until he came out of the kitchen carrying a bowl.

Yu Chen sat down next to her, holding the bowl of brown sugar water in his hand but not handing it to her.

"hot."

He took a spoonful, scooped it up, and blew on it.

Su Wuli was stunned by his action.

The spoon was brought to her lips, and she opened her mouth and drank it.

It's still a bit hot, but it's okay.

The brown sugar water slid down my throat, and I felt a little better.

But the burning sensation still made her eyes a little moist.

Yu Chen frowned slightly as he looked at her. "Did you get burned?"

Su Wuli shook her head.

But the man's eyes held a hint of inquiry, as if he were confirming her authenticity.

He then bent down, scooped up another spoonful, blew on it, and brought it to her lips.

Seeing that he was feeding her spoonful by spoonful rather slowly, Su Wuli reached out to take the spoonful herself.

However, he didn't let go. "Don't move."

She paused upon hearing this.

He said in a way that left no room for refusal, "You'll burn yourself again."
