Oh no! My yandere school beauty is so clingy!

Shen Yu watched Lin Anran enter the bathroom before turning around to tidy up the living room.

He threw the clothes into the washing machine, and only after doing all that did he lean against the sofa, pick up a book, and concentrate on reading.

After a long while, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped. Lin Anran, wearing long-sleeved pajamas, walked to the mirror in front of the sink, picked up a comb, and combed the ends of her hair.

Just then, Lin Anran suddenly hissed, her brows furrowed slightly, and she instinctively covered her lower abdomen with one hand...

After a while, Lin Anran came out of the bathroom, her face looking a little pale. Shen Yu put down his book and didn't notice Lin Anran's expression.

"Finished washing? I'm going to wash now."

"Mmm," Lin Anran mumbled a low reply.

Shen Yu didn't pay much attention and took her pajamas into the bathroom.

Shen Yu quickly took a shower, dried herself off, and changed into comfortable pajamas.

When he opened the bathroom door and came out drying his hair with a towel, he found the living room unusually quiet.

He looked up and saw that Lin Anran was not curled up on the sofa reading or playing on her phone as usual while waiting for him, but was instead huddled in a corner of the sofa.

Her body was slightly hunched, and her fair feet, which always liked to swing around, were now tightly pressed together, her toes unconsciously curling up and pressing against each other.

She was clutching a soft pillow tightly in her arms, her entire upper body almost pressed against it, and the pillow was pressed firmly against her lower abdomen.

Even just looking at their backs, one can sense a suppressed unease.

Shen Yu paused in the act of drying her hair.

He put down the towel, walked quickly over, and went around to the front of the sofa.

Lin Anran's face was buried in the gap between the cushion and the sofa back, with only half of her profile showing.

Her brows were furrowed, her face was no longer as rosy as before, but rather looked somewhat pale, and her lips were slightly pursed.

Shen Yu's heart tightened. He squatted down, leaned closer to her, and unconsciously softened his voice, revealing obvious worry:

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Anran heard his voice, her eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes.

She looked at Shen Yu's concerned face, which was so close to her, and her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she found it difficult to speak.

"No...it's nothing serious...it's just that I got my period..."

"Ah..." Shen Yu realized what was going on; it turned out Lin Anran had gotten her period...

My stomach started hurting so suddenly, it just came on like that.

"Does your stomach hurt a lot?"

Lin Anran nodded, her brows still slightly furrowed, her voice tinged with weariness:

"Hmm... It's okay. It hurts every time, but I'm used to it. It was just a bit worse the first couple of days, but it got much better after that... It's alright, just bear with it and it will pass."

She spoke casually, but Shen Yu, looking at her pale face, the cold sweat on her forehead, and her tightly curled-up body, knew that it was definitely not as easy as she made it out to be.

Shen Yu frowned even more. He knew that girls often felt uncomfortable during their periods, and menstrual cramps were quite common.

But seeing Lin Anran in such pain with my own eyes, I felt a pang in my heart, a bit stifled, but mostly heartbroken.

"Go back to bed and rest."

Without saying much, he stood up, bent down, and put his arms under Lin Anran's legs and back, lifting her up steadily from her curled-up position.

"Hmm..." Lin Anran subconsciously grabbed his shirt collar and instinctively wanted to shrink into his arms.

Shen Yu carried her into the bedroom and gently placed her on the bed.

I pulled the blanket over her carefully, tucking the corners in.

Lin Anran looked at him longingly, wanting a hug to comfort her.

After covering her with the blanket, Shen Yu straightened up, said "You lie down first," and then turned around and walked out of the bedroom, closing the door behind him.

The bedroom fell silent instantly, leaving her alone.

The dull, stabbing pain in her lower abdomen returned, coming in waves and disturbing her peace of mind.

Lin Anran bit her lower lip, pulled the blanket up to cover half her face, and felt a little empty inside...

She endured the discomfort, not knowing how much time had passed—perhaps only a few minutes, but for someone in pain, it felt incredibly long.

The bedroom door was gently pushed open.

Shen Yu walked in, carrying a steaming mug in one hand and two fluffy, bulging hot water bottles in the other.

He walked to the bedside and placed the mug on the bedside table. It contained freshly poured hot water, which was steaming.

Then, he picked up one of the hot water bottles, pressed the back of his hand against the surface of the velvet cover to test the temperature, and then touched the other one.

"Perfect." He murmured to himself, then lifted a corner of the blanket at Lin Anran's feet, carefully stuffed one of the hot water bottles inside, and gently placed it at her feet.

"Hey, step on this with your feet, and once your feet are warm, it will feel much better."

In an instant, Lin Anran felt a warm and soothing sensation on the soles of her feet. The warmth slowly spread up her feet, dispelling some of the chill that had crept into her limbs.

Next, Shen Yu lifted the blanket over her stomach area, placed another hot water bottle on it, and adjusted its position so that it could fit more snugly on her lower abdomen.

"Place this on your stomach."

The hot water bottle, heavy and with just the right amount of heat, pressed steadily against the painful area through the fabric of my pajamas.

Lin Anran could even feel the spasmodic pain gradually subsiding...

She sighed contentedly, and her furrowed brows finally relaxed a little.

She blinked, looking at Shen Yu with some surprise, her voice slightly stronger as the pain subsided:

"This hot water bottle..."

Is it new?

Shen Yu was bending over to adjust the position of the hot water bottle on her stomach when he heard this. He paused, straightened up, and looked at her.

He nodded, picked up the glass of hot water from the bedside table, tested the temperature, and, finding it suitable, handed it to her.

"Yes, it's new, it was prepared just for you."

"Prepared for me...?"

Lin Anran took the water glass, the warmth passing through the glass to her palm. She looked at Shen Yu, her eyes filled with surprise and disbelief.

"Otherwise what?" Shen Yu sat down beside her bed, his tone carrying a matter-of-fact composure:

"Since you have a girlfriend, you definitely need to consider that she will have her period and feel uncomfortable. Of course, you need to prepare in advance. Although I don't have much experience and don't know the best way to do it, at least I can do something so that I won't be helpless when you are in pain."

"I didn't know exactly when your period was, so I prepared well in advance."
