Ling Chuxia involuntarily shivered and clenched her teeth, blurting out in her urgency, "No!"
Due to her rush, Ling Chuxia spoke a bit loudly. Shi Che's hand paused involuntarily, his handsome face lifted, and his dark eyes fell upon her countenance, narrowing slightly, "No?"
His voice was neither heavy nor light, yet it made Ling Chuxia involuntarily swallow hard. Thinking quickly, it seemed that the most credible excuse was her menstrual cycle.
She dared not meet Shi Che's eyes, slightly averting her gaze and restraining her feelings of guilt, she slowly began, "I... I got my period today."
However, contrary to what she expected, Shi Che did not let her go. Instead, he frowned slightly, the light in his eyes deepening as he stared at Ling Chuxia's face. His lips parted slightly, "Isn't your cycle not due for these couple of days?"
