Chapter 542: Chapter 542: Could It Be Menstrual Pain?
 

Li Shengxiao’s thin lips barely brushed together as his dark eyes cast a worried glance towards the big bed not far away, his voice husky as he began to speak, “You wanted to invest in that Krea project, I can let you in!”

“Damn, how did you suddenly come around?” Cui Jiangjing instantly sobered up, climbing out of bed and switching on the bedside lamp, “Didn’t you say before that you planned it to be a commercial area there and didn’t intend to include a hospital?”

Li Group had invested tens of billions in Krea, creating a brand-new commercial center. Once this center was completed, it would undoubtedly be a top-tier presence surpassing all current commercial areas in Krea. At that time, there would be endless business opportunities, equivalent to a new money printing machine for Li Group.

He had wanted to take up a position in the commercial area by building a hospital there in advance.

However, Shengxiao had ruthlessly rejected him, with the straightforward reason that adding a hospital didn’t fit his planning blueprint.

He was still not ready to give up at dinner tonight, wanting to try again for a negotiation when Siyuan, that girl, suddenly interjected, ruining the good atmosphere.

So, why in the middle of the night, did Shengxiao suddenly give him a call about this?

“Hiss, don’t tell me your brain got attacked by aliens mid-night and you’ll tell me in the morning you’ve forgotten all about it?”

If that were the case, he’d rather hang up right now and go to sleep!

“No, have your people bring your proposal to my office tomorrow. I’ll take a look first, and if there’s nothing wrong with your proposal, then we can sign the contract.”

His words were rational and clear, not like someone whose brain had been attacked by aliens. Although Cui Jiangjing found it incredible, he still silently shut his mouth and caught the pie falling from the sky, “OK, I’ll come to find you tomorrow morning. It’s late now, so you should rest early too. That old headache problem of yours, it’s really not good to stay up late!”

After happily issuing his advice, he was about to hang up the call.

Who would have known that at that moment, Li Shengxiao suddenly stopped him, “Wait.”

“Uh, is there anything else?” Cui Jiangjing was puzzled.

The man standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window looked towards the bulge on the big bed, his handsome face slightly stern as he spoke, “Rong Yan says her stomach hurts, and there’s blood on the bed.”

Stomach pain, blood on the bed … Cui Jiangjing’s brain nearly didn’t keep up with what he was saying, it was too sudden a topic jump. They were just discussing investment, and suddenly he switched to Rong Yan, “Why would there be blood…”

After all, he was a doctor, even if not a gynecologist, he still understood far more about human anatomy than the average person! He quickly grasped it, “Do you mean she’s having menstrual pain?”

“Menstrual pain?”

Good grief, Cui Jiangjing could tell from his reaction that he didn’t know what menstrual pain was, and resigned himself to temporarily play the role of a half-baked gynecologist, “It’s the period, you know what that is, right. Women all have them. But some women, for various reasons, experience stomach pains when they get their period; this is called menstrual pain. She must still be asleep, not awake yet, right?”

If she had been awake, Little Yan Rong probably wouldn’t have let Shengxiao come to him with this.

As expected.

“Mhm?”

“That’s right, it’s menstrual pain! If it were something else, and she was in so much pain that it caused bleeding, she would’ve woken up already. It’s only during menstrual pain that this happens. It’s not a big problem. Get her a hot water bag or something to place on her stomach. Or make her some brown sugar ginger tea to drink, then help her massage her stomach, and she should feel better soon.”
