Chapter 122: No more Running



122 No more Running

Her feet stuck to the ground as her eyes met the figure by the adjacent room.

Since it was very quiet in the house, Liu Wei was woken up by her cries. He had wondered what was wrong with her, so he came over to check on her.

They both stood for almost thirty seconds staring at each other. Liling was thinking of the fastest lie to tell him, if he asks her what she was doing outside by that time.

She didn't occur to her that he had heard her whispers and had come out to check on her.

"What's wrong? Are you okay? "

" "

'What's wrong? Am I okay? '

Liling swallowed hard and coughed trying to find her voice.

"Yes.., I'm ..okay. I just..just...want to drink.. water."

Liling weakly replied. No matter how she wanted to sound fine, her tummy was saying otherwise.

Liu Wei stared at her with a concerned gaze. He knew that something was wrong but she didn't want him to know about it.

When Liling realized that he wasn't going to speak, she decided to continue her trip downstairs.

But the devil had other plans...

As she approached the stairs, she felt a very sharp pain on her lower abdomen and before she could stop herself, she had already screamed out loud and her hand immediately clutched her belly.

Liu Wei without thinking, darted to where she was. He turned her to face him and lifted her head which was bent low.

"Liling what's wrong with you? talk to me!! Liling, say something, please."

Liu Wei held her shoulder tenderly, his voice was extremely shaky. Liling who was slightly bent felt her legs giving way, she had to hold onto his shirt for support.

She didn't know how to explain it to Liu Wei. She just stayed there whimpering.

Liu Wei feeling that it was something serious, quickly suggested.

"Let's got to the hospital."

"No!" Liling abruptly rejected. Realizing her abruptness, she mellowed and repeated.

"No, I don't need ..to see a doctor, it's.. my.. period. "

It took Liu Wei some time to understand what she just said. After he had understood her, he bent and lifted her from the ground and carried her back to her room.

"Where were you going to? "

He asked as he covered her properly with the quilt.

"Ginger tea and a heat pad."

Liling replied weakly, her eyes were slightly closed. She didn't even remember that she had been avoiding him for the past few months, what she needed right now was his help.

Liu Wei returned after a while with what she had asked for. He sat her up on the bed and fed her the ginger tea slowly until she completely drank all of it.

When she was through, he helped her lie back on the bed. Taking the heat pad, he lifted her shirt upwards and placed it on her tummy, moving it around slowly.

"Is it like this every month? "

"No, it's not always like this, I didn't know my drugs had finished, that's why it's this severe."

Liling replied calmly. She was feeling a little better after taking the tea.

Liu Wei didn't say anything else. The room returned to it's usual quietness.

Liling didn't feel a bit sleepy, she just took her time staring at Liu Wei.

After sometime she said softly.
