Su Luo’s face instantly turned red. Oh My God, Brother Huo, he’s just too good with his words. Wouldn’t she die of happiness if she gets to be in a relationship with such a gentleman! Would she be rejected if she confessed now? In the novel, didn’t the male supporting character always like the female lead? Why doesn’t she confess…No, no, no. She had just broken off the engagement with Chu Dongfeng, confessing to Huo Chen now? Would Huo Chen think that she was a woman who didn’t cherish her feelings? Wait a little longer, wait a little longer…

After dinner, Huo Chen drove Su Luo home. Su Luo suddenly felt that her stomach wasn’t feeling well on the way back. It was hurting again and again as if she was going to have her period.

Huo Chen saw that Su Luo’s expression wasn’t right, so he asked anxiously, “Luoluo, what’s wrong?”

Su Luo wanted to endure it a little longer. It was too embarrassing to tell a man that she would have her period, but her stomach was hurting more and more. She bent over and held her stomach. “Brother, Brother Huo, my stomach hurts…”

Huo Chen looked around. “I just came back, and I’m not familiar with the place. This is a development area, so I can’t find the pharmacy…”

Just as Huo Chen was panicking, Su Luo endured the pain in her stomach. She suddenly thought this was an excellent time to get closer to Huo Chen, so she waved her hand weakly. “Brother Huo, find a place to park.”

Huo Chen did as she said.

Su Luo pleaded, “Heat the seat and turn on the warm air. I may have drunk too much iced fruit juice during dinner to have a stomachache. Normally, it would be much better if I had a hot water bag to apply to my stomach, but the situation doesn’t allow it…” Su Luo pouted and looked at Huo Chen pitifully.

Huo Chen’s gaze fell on Su Luo’s stomach. After a moment of silence, he said, “Excuse me.” After he said that, he rubbed his palms together and warmed his palms. Then, he tentatively placed his hands on Su Luo’s stomach. When he saw that Su Luo accepted him, a hint of a smile flashed across Huo Chen’s eyes.

Huo Chen’s palms were huge and hot. When he placed his palms on Su Luo’s stomach, it was as if he was a warm pocket. Su Luo felt that the pain in her stomach had alleviated a lot. Because he had to put his palms on Su Luo’s stomach, most of Huo Chen’s body leaned on Su Luo’s side. The two of them were very close to each other, so close that Su Luo could easily smell the pleasant mint scent on Huo Chen’s body.

Su Luo looked down uneasily. Her gaze fell on Huo Chen’s hand. His knuckles were well-defined, and his nails were neatly trimmed and clean. It suited him, and it was very comfortable.

At this moment, the two of them were alone in the quiet car. Huo Chen placed his hand on Su Luo’s lower abdomen and gently rubbed it. Their relationship had become closer at this moment. Su Luo felt a little regretful. If it weren’t for her menstruation, she might have been able to take Huo Chen down now and do some ‘strenuous exercise’ with him.

“Brother Huo…” Su Luo’s voice was a little hoarse. “I heard that foreign girls are passionate and bold. Haven’t you met someone you like?”

Huo Chen’s hand froze. After a moment, he slowly shook his head and smiled gently. “It’s not that easy to meet someone you like, and…”

Before he could finish his sentence, her phone rang. Mother Su called to ask why Su Luo wasn’t home yet. When Huo Chen saw that Su Luo looked much better, he slowly retracted his hand. After Su Luo hung up the phone, he asked with concern, “Are you feeling better? Do you need to go to the hospital before you go home?”

Su Luo touched her stomach. After Huo Chen’s warm compress, the pain in her stomach eased. She was afraid that it would start to hurt if she delayed any longer. Therefore, she shook her head. “There’s no need. I have prepared painkillers at home. Brother Huo, can you send me home?”

The car arrived at the Lin family’s villa. Just as Su Luo was about to get out of the car, she felt a surge of pain in her lower body. She sat back in the car seat, feeling a little annoyed. Huo Chen asked when he saw this, “What’s wrong?”

Su Luo put on a bitter face. “I think I’ve dirtied your car.”

Huo Chen paused for a long time before understanding what dirtying his car meant. He couldn’t help but pat Su Luo on the head. “It’s okay. Hurry home. I’ll take care of the car.”

Su Luo didn’t insist otherwise. After saying goodbye to brother Huo in a low voice, she quickly ran to her house’s entrance.

After Huo Chen had watched her leave, he returned to the car and tilted his head to look at the red mark on the passenger seat. He placed his hand on his forehead and suddenly chuckled. It seemed that he had made the right decision to return to the country this time. His little girl seemed to have matured…

After Su Luo returned to her bedroom, the robotic voice sounded again. [ Mission progress: 30% ]

The progress that had not increased for a long time suddenly increased…Su Luo swiveled her eyes. Could this strange mission have something to do with Brother Huo?

Su Luo’s menstrual cramps weren’t severe. She could return to work the next day as usual as her studio was considered to have become famous. She received many orders every single day. Sometimes, she would need to sleep in the studio when busy.

On a particular day, she was measuring a regular customer when Huo Chen pushed the door open and came in. Seeing that Su Luo was working hard and didn’t notice him, he didn’t go up to disturb her. Instead, he stood quietly near a bookshelf and read.
