Chapter 67: C67 Menstrual Arrival!
When Wu Wenjing received a call from Jian Yun, she was lying on the lounge, taking a nap from the long day she had. Her lunch break still wasn't over yet, and she used the little minutes she had to properly clear her mind from everything that had happened. However, it seemed that her reflection period was about to be cut short. Sitting up, she glanced at her screen.
"Hey, do you think you can buy me a pair of new underwear? And get a plastic bag from the second drawer of my desk. Please!" Jian Yun immediately hung up with a squeak, ignoring her line of questioning. Seeing as her friend sounded urgent, Wu Wenjing immediately went off to do as she said before taking them to the 28th floor. Her heels tapped against the glass tiles in anticipation as she waited for the elevator to arrive.
It was actually her first time stepping into the CEO's office on the 28th floor. Despite this, she wasn't in the mood to look around. Instead, she was too preoccupied with wondering why her friend needed a new pair of underwear. What was Jian Yun even doing in the CEO's office in the first place? And lastly, why was she so anxious on the phone? Suddenly, she stopped as a thought occurred to her.
Today, she had seen Attorney Zhou and Jian Yun sitting at the executive table for lunch–right in front of Huo Liancheng himself! Could President Huo be stirred with jealousy and called her directly into his office to bed her? To claim her as his?
Her underwear must've been torn open during the process. Otherwise, why would Jian Yun call and ask her for another pair?
Wu Wenjing suppressed the urge to giggle at this possibility.
Huo Liancheng was practically the god of men, and the blessings that came from just being with him were endless! Wu Wenjing may not have the chance to snag him, but it seemed that her friend already had. For her, the situation was practically the same! Besides, if Jian Yun were to move up in life, she would certainly not leave her two friends behind!
Excited, she knocked on his office.
"Come in." Huo Liancheng's voice sounded.
Wu Wenjing stepped into the office, and she could see Huo Liancheng perched against the glass doorframe near the lounge. He had already taken off his jacket and was wearing only a white long-sleeved shirt and black trousers. His sleeves were rolled up, and his collars were unbuttoned–showcasing his detailed collarbone and muscled arms. He turned to look at her. Although he looked casual, there was something about his candidness that made it seem as if he was posing for a magazine cover. She took a deep breath and her fingers twitched towards her pockets.
'If only I could take a picture of him with my phone!'
"President Huo?" She brushed the back of her hand against the corners of her lips, making sure that there wasn't any drool. "Where's Yun?"
He didn't say anything. Instead, he pointed at the direction of the restroom.
She was about to go over there when she suddenly had a thought. If Jian Yun really did had sex with Huo Liancheng, wouldn't she be embarrassed if Wu Wenjing walked right in? Besides, after an afternoon of intimacy, it would be weird for her to just barge in without any reason at all. And seeing as Huo Liancheng was still standing right in front of her...
Stopping, she quickly handed the bag in his hands. "President Huo, I actually still have a lot of work to do," she quickly said, excusing herself. "I'll just head back down now. Please give this to Jian Yun."
Without another word, she ran off like the wind. A smile slipped into her lips as she stood inside the elevator. It seemed that Jian Yun was going to do a whole lot of talking when she returned.
Huo Liancheng stared at the bag in his hand before glancing at the woman's retreating figure. It seemed that Cheng Muze was right. Wu Wenjing really was discerning.
"How long are you going to stay in there?" He headed towards the bathroom with her stuff and knocked on the door.
"You're annoying!" Jian Yun sat on the toilet. Her voice quivered uncontrollably, sounding like she was just about to cry.
"Says the person who just made an utter fool of herself," Huo Liancheng teased, pinching his nose as he tried his best to conceal the laughter in his voice. However, it was to no avail. He chuckled. "I'm already trying to help you out here, and all you're doing is calling me names. Maybe I should just walk away and leave you here."
"Stop talking, okay?" Jian Yun shrieked at the far end of the bathroom. Her face was flushed red as she ducked her head, wishing that the entire building would just crash and blow. Maybe then, it would knock her out unconscious for the rest of her humiliating days.
When she had been arguing with Huo Liancheng, her period came. She remembered being so infuriated with him that she didn't even realize that her underwear and skirt were already stained with blood. By the time she wanted to walk out of the office, the stain was already so recognizable that even a blind man could spot it from a mile away!
Not only did she snap at him when he tried to point it out, but she had also turned her back on him! God! Jian Yun clenched her jaw. What the hell was wrong with her?
"Alright, alright!" Huo Liancheng conceded. "I won't say anything anymore. Do you still want me to give you the thing Wu Wenjing sent over?"
"Yes," Jian Yun called out. On her first day of period pains, she'd usually lose high amounts of blood, making her dizzy and meek. It was a condition she had ever since she was young, and the pain would usually double if she were under a lot of stress. That was the reason why her stockings were ruined in such a short amount of time. As she was sitting on the toilet, she couldn't help but shudder from the continued sting from her stomach. Although it wasn't that cold, the entire situation still made her feel entirely uncomfortable.
There was a pause. "How can I give it to you if you won't open the door?"
"Where's Wu Wenjing?" She clutched her stomach, and another wave of nausea crashed onto her. "She can come in."
"She said she was busy and ran off," Huo Liancheng said, tugging at the underwear in his hands. His eyes twinkled with amusement as the lacy fabric wrapped around his fingertips.
"Wu Wenjing!" Jian Yun screamed, feeling as if she was on the verge of losing her cool, but just as she was about to scream another round of curses, a warm current suddenly rushed through her. "Ow!"
She whimpered, doubling over.
"Are you okay?" Concerned, Huo Liancheng inched towards the door. "What's wrong?"
"My stomach–it hurts," Jian Yun stuttered out. It was as if someone had pulled out a knife and twisted it in her lower abdomen. Every move she made and every word she uttered caused a pulse of agony to shoot through her veins. She leaned her head against the wall, breaking into a cold sweat. If she had any other choice, she would've stayed there the entire day and let him be done with it! After all, if it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have embarrassed herself like this!
"Hurry up, you've been there for more than twenty minutes. Aren't your legs growing numb?" He glanced at his watch.
"Well, I can't get up!" She gritted her teeth.
"Do you want me to come in then?" Hearing her voice tremble, worry flashed in his eyes. His hand quickly went to the doorknob as he waited for her response.
Immediately, Jian Yun straightened her back despite her aching body. She was naked! If she let Huo Liancheng walk right in and see her in this state, not only would she be at a huge disadvantage given her vulnerability, but she'd be humiliated! She gripped the sink and slowly brought herself to stand. "There's no need!"
"Can you get yourself up?"
Although she didn't say anything else, he could hear rustling sounds coming from the inside followed by her yelps and cries of pain.
Huo Liancheng frowned. "Is it still painful?"
"Agh, what the hell do you think?" Jian Yun leaned against the wall as she stomped her foot onto the tiled floors. Her legs felt like they were being crawled over by millions of ants, making her grimace. This was the first time her period pains had grown this bad before. Clutching her thighs, she struggled to hold herself together despite the feeling that everything around her was falling apart. "Fuck, my legs are numb!"
Seeing that the bathroom door was slightly ajar, he resisted the urge to laugh and slid the underwear and the sanitary pads through the opening. She didn't waste any time in taking them and shutting the door behind her.
Just as he was about to walk away, she suddenly screamed, "Wu Wenjing, you bitch!" Suddenly, a soft ruffle came from the other end and a light groan echoed across the room. "God, it hurts so much."
Jian Yun sat on the toilet, dangling the transparent underwear in front of her. She blinked and resisted the urge to curse the woman to the ends of the earth. All she had asked her to do was buy her a clean pair of underwear! Why the hell did Wu Wenjing decide to buy her the raciest one from the rack?
And Huo Liancheng had just handed it to her! Picturing him holding the lacy underwear in his fingertips, she buried her face deeper into her hands, murmuring curse words as she did. How the hell was she going to face him now? She kicked her legs up in the air, stifling a groan. Maybe it was better to just lock herself in this room and never come out.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
"What?" Jian Yun asked weakly.
"Can you still wear your clothes?"
Fuck! That was another thing she had forgotten. Staring at her soiled dress, Jian Yun clutched her phone. When she had called Wu Wenjing just now, she had only asked her for some underwear–failing to recall that her stockings were completely ruined from the bloodstains. As her fingers clenched around the fabric, she had the sudden urge to bang her head onto the wall.
"I–I can't wear it anymore," she stuttered out, wanting to cry all over again. It wasn't as if she could leave the room barefooted dressed in a skirt that was already drenched in her blood! It was like a remake of Carrie, and everyone knew how that movie had ended! Going out there would be like signing in her resignation papers. It would be game over for her.
"I have a set of women's clothes for you." Huo Liancheng knocked again. "You can try it out to see if it fits you."
