Chapter 85: How Strange She Is
Chapter 85
"Rong Dai?"
Just as she started to move, she heard Huo Shao Ting knocking on the door. She immediately tensed up again, her gaze fixed steadily on the door handle, and said in a panicked, stuttering voice, "I...I\'m here."
"Can I come in?" He stood outside the door and asked, holding one of her panties in his hand, the sanitary pad on it looked a little crooked.
As soon as Rong Dai heard this, her mind went blank immediately.
Let him in?
But...what other choice did she have now? It was her own carelessness that she didn\'t calculate the timing of this matter well.
"Y-yes."
She reluctantly agreed through gritted teeth, subconsciously wrapping the bath towel tightly around herself, but the bath towel wasn\'t very big, and she was sitting on the toilet, her two long, straight, flawless legs exposed, very eye-catching.
Huo Shao Ting was also very nervous outside the door. Hearing her reply, his heart inexplicably started pounding rapidly.
He was very clear that after passing through this door, he would see what was happening.
That inexplicable tension made him break out into a hot sweat on his back and palms. He had to twist the door handle several times before opening it.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Rong Dai quickly turned her head to withdraw her gaze, lowering her half-wet hair to stare at the floor, this was so embarrassing!
Rong Dai only felt like half of her body was soaking in icy water while the other half was immersed in magma. What was meant by fire and ice, she was experiencing it firsthand now.
This feeling was practically soul-crushing!
"Put these on first."
Huo Shao Ting\'s ears were also blushing badly, and the things in his hands felt scalding hot.
"Th-thank you."
Rong Dai\'s whole face was bright red, seeing the panties he handed over, she practically snatched them!
"I...I\'ll go get you a bathrobe."
The atmosphere in the bathroom was very awkward and strange, even Huo Shao Ting felt like he was suffocating, stammering awkwardly before turning to leave.
Rong Dai wished she could find a crack in the floor to crawl into, she had never lost so much face before!
She felt like one of her ears was like a boiling kettle spewing steam while the other ear was soaking in lava. Her whole body alternated between chills and fevers, making her feel so embarrassed she was nearly dizzy.
"Ugh--"
The surging menstrual cramps were also against her. Huo Shao Ting had just walked to the door when he heard her painful gasp. He immediately turned back to look at her, wanting to ask if she was okay.
But with this turn of his head, the bath towel wrapped around Rong Dai happened to slip down quite a bit.
Her swan-like neck, beautiful shoulders, and ample bosom were half exposed.
So fair, delicate, full, with extremely beautiful contours.
Huo Shao Ting was stunned, even forgetting to breathe for a moment, only feeling his blood rushing to his head!
It was like a volcanic eruption, rushing straight to his crown!
Rong Dai was only thinking about quickly ending this extremely awkward and embarrassing interlude. She didn\'t notice the slipping of the bath towel either, it wasn\'t cold in the bathroom in August.
She thought Huo Shao Ting had already left, so she briskly lifted her leg to put on the panties with the sanitary pad already attached, in a practiced motion.
This scene was seen completely clearly by Huo Shao Ting, her two long legs were so fair they dazzled the eyes, as if they were illuminated by a soft light.
"Ah!"
After Rong Dai finished putting on her panties, she noticed the fallen bath towel. In order to avoid it falling into the toilet, she hurriedly reached to catch it, but when she raised her head she discovered Huo Shao Ting standing there stiff as a statue, frightening her into crying out loud!
Her heart was thumping wildly, she could even feel her internal organs shuddering along with it. Her whole body\'s blood was churning like boiling water, her face blazing hot, she was so mortified and tense she wanted to smash her head into a wall and pass out!
In her past life as an empress she had always been graceful and elegant, never losing composure like this before. Today she had lost all the face from two lifetimes!
Rong Dai was angry and annoyed at herself in her heart. If it wasn\'t for her own carelessness, how could such an embarrassing thing have happened?
Huo Shao Ting was brought back to his senses by her shriek. He hurriedly closed the door and walked out. But that scene had already etched itself into his mind, filling up his head like a huge mural.
Inside the bathroom, Rong Dai berated herself for her carelessness, and worried that Huo Shao Ting would overthink things. Her heart was in turmoil with no solid footing.
Thinking that he had gone to get a bathrobe, she hurriedly wrapped the bath towel tightly around herself. She had absentmindedly not even brought a change of clothes into the bathroom!
Vexed as she was, she still quickly flushed the toilet and let out the water from the bathtub.
When Huo Shao Ting came in with the bathrobe, the two looked at each other awkwardly. Still, he was the first to come over and put the bathrobe around her. "Go change first, I\'ll clean up the bathroom."
Rong Dai\'s face was burning red, not even daring to meet his eyes. She hurriedly nodded and escaped as if for her life.
After coming out, Rong Dai took a deep breath, seeing the several packages brought over by Huo Mei Shu from Huo Shao Ting. Going over for a look, she discovered one package was opened, with two failed experimental pads in the trash can, and two pairs of her panties on the sofa.
These panties were newly bought. Although she and the original owner had the same body, Rong Dai still didn\'t like sharing intimate articles with others. And when Huo Shao Ting had bought her clothes in the beginning, it was from the inside out, from head to toe.
Her face immediately turned crimson. She grabbed the panties on the sofa and the packs of pads, and went into the walk-in closet, not forgetting to bring her phone along.
Inside the walk-in closet, she hurriedly changed into loungewear, and frantically looked up information on her phone. Her heart finally relaxed quite a bit.
Looking at those exquisitely packaged pads, Rong Dai couldn\'t help but sigh inwardly that girls of this modern era were much more fortunate than ancient women like her, especially regarding feminine matters. Such convenient, sanitary and healthy products simply couldn\'t exist in her past life.
After all, cotton was an extremely important agricultural product in her past life. How could it possibly have been used for such things for women?
She had basically crammed all the knowledge about menstruation and pads, but the embarrassment in the bathroom was still fresh in her mind.
Just now...surely he didn\'t see everything clearly, right?
Thinking of this, Rong Dai\'s heart was in chaos. Worried yet vexed.
But the physical discomfort in her lower abdomen soon defeated her. The stabbing pains forced her to have to lie back down in bed.
Huo Shao Ting stood frozen in the bathroom, his whole being seemingly detached from his body. It wasn\'t until the water in the bathtub overflowed that he reacted, hurriedly cleaning everything up spotless.
The old Huo manor was very big, each person\'s room had an independent bathroom and study. The bathrooms were divided into wet and dry areas, the layout spacious.
As he passed by the sink, his footsteps paused for a moment as he looked towards the cabinet next to it. This cabinet usually stored some new bathroom supplies, and of course could also hold other things. He hadn\'t found what was needed in the bedroom just now, perhaps it was here.
Huo Shao Ting wasn\'t so far gone as to lose his reason because of the earlier scene. He was happy about his wife\'s changes, but some of her subtle oddities also made him feel doubtful.
He reached out and pulled open the drawer, seeing several packs of sanitary pads inside, as well as disposable panties for periods.
His gaze deepened. It seemed his wife had many things she was hiding from him.
