In that instant, Luosang felt as red as a lobster. She felt flushed from her head to her toes, her cramps started to spread throughout her entire body, and she felt like she could collapse at any moment. She recalled that Nian Junting used to block certain people while posting on social media, but now, with the exception of Nian Xi, he did not even bother. Did he want the whole world to know that she was having her period?
She decided that she did not want to go to his company anymore. She would be too embarra.s.sed. She did not want to continue browsing through her social media anymore, so she switched off her smartphone.
…
In the Shengting Office.
At lunch, Nian Junting decided to call Luosang, but he was not able to get through. He was vexed. He remembered that Luosang had charged her phone fully the night before, so she could not have run out of battery. Left without a choice, he decided to call Yan Su. “I haven’t been able to get through to Luosang. Did anything happen?”
“No, I just had lunch with her.” Yan Su was curious. “Did you two have an argument?”
“No, she’s on her period and is a little moody. Help me keep an eye on her. If she starts feeling unwell, tell me immediately.” After Nian Junting hung up, he noticed that Lu Kang had entered the room carrying two huge boxes.
“Mr. Nian, these are sanitary pads sent by… Manager Shu and Manager Mao for your girlfriend. There are two boxes of them.” Lu Kang placed the boxes to the side. There were already a few stacked up in the corner. “Apparently, they’re imported from j.a.pan. They’re quite authentic.”
“So many of them, when will Luosang finish using them?” Nian Junting crossed his arms and frowned.
Lu Kang did not know what to say. “Who asked you to announce your girlfriend’s period on social media? Now all of the company executives who follow you on WeChat know about this. Including these two boxes, there are already a total of ten, and I’m sure there are more on the way.”
“Everybody only knows how to bootlick nowadays. They don’t do their jobs properly. Forget it, leave them there. Luosang will need them, anyway.” Nian Junting shook his head and started to work at his computer. After a while, he realized that Lu Kang had not budged. He looked as if he had something to say.
“Mr. Nian… I accidentally overheard your call earlier. Did Miss Xu reject your calls?”
Nian Junting’s face was downcast. “Watch what you say. She did not reject my calls, she just turned off her phone.”
Lu Kang thought that Luosang must have turned off her phone because of him. However, as his subordinate, he decided not to speak too much. “Mr. Nian, I think you might lose Miss Xu like this…”
As he finished his sentence, he saw Nian Junting looking at him with a piercing gaze. “Are you jealous of me because you don’t have a girlfriend?”
Lu Kang felt helpless. “Mr. Nian, I am jealous, but I’m speaking the truth. You probably don’t realize this, but to women, periods are extremely sensitive and private. Most women would get upset at you for posting about it all over your social media. I think Miss Xu turned off her phone out of anger at you.”
“Really?” Nian Junting suddenly became solemn. “Isn’t it just bleeding? What is so embarra.s.sing about that?”
“But it’s embarra.s.sing where they bleed from…” Lu Kang whispered. “You can ask Miss Nian if you don’t believe me.” He was genuinely worried about his boss’s low emotional quotient. After dating for so long, he thought that he would have improved tremendously, but evidently not.
Nian Junting considered his words for a while. Between his pride and losing his girlfriend, he decided to call Nian Xi. “Tell me, if Ji Chuan told everyone about your period, what would you do?”
