"Are you sure this is because it’s the first time, so..." The voice behind was too low for Sheng Sheng to hear clearly.

Maimai’s voice was also low, and he couldn’t hear it either.

After two full minutes, Maimai’s voice rose again: "What did you say? Is this... is this menstruation?"

Sheng Sheng’s heart skipped a beat.

He only heard the voice continue: "Your hymen is intact, so there shouldn’t be a problem. This is the first menstruation, it’s normal for girls to have it at this age. Didn’t your mother tell you about some of the signs of puberty in girls?"

The doctor saw Maimai’s completely confused expression and couldn’t help but gently reprimand, "Your mother should have taught you this."

"I don’t have a mom." Maimai puffed her cheeks.

At home, there were only two dads and a brother. Who would teach her these things? Of course, she had heard about menstruation, and people said women hate it the most, but she didn’t expect that menstruation meant bleeding continuously from below.

Maimai touched her stomach and said, feeling wronged, "My stomach hurts too, are you sure this is menstruation?"

The little girl bit her lower lip, showing a complex expression of surprise mixed with extreme depression—is menstruation really this painful? It comes once a month, so does that mean she has to suffer and die from pain every month?

So terrifying!

She suddenly didn’t want to be a woman! 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"Sorry, I didn’t mean it." The doctor thought the little girl said she didn’t have a mom because the mom had passed away or was divorced. No wonder the little girl didn’t understand. This little girl seemed to be about the same age as his daughter, instantly arousing the doctor’s motherly instinct, and she even sat beside her to earnestly teach her some knowledge about puberty for women.

"Young man, go buy a pack of sanitary pads for your sister. I’ll talk to the hotel to see if they can cook her a bowl of egg and brown sugar water to relieve her symptoms." The doctor called Sheng Sheng into the room and mentioned a brand of sanitary pads in front of him.

Sheng Sheng had already heard most of their conversation, feeling secretly relieved. So, girls bleed during their menstrual period? Luckily, he didn’t break her!

He was thinking that girls aren’t that easily harmed, being around this little girl, he would end up mentally disturbed sooner or later!

Because he was eavesdropping, he also learned some things about girls’ menstrual periods.

It was very refreshing to hear!

"What are san-i-ta-ry pads?" Sheng Sheng didn’t understand, never seen or heard of them, growing up in a training camp, he was as pure as can be, completely untouched and uninformed about such things.

The doctor said, "You can go to a nearby supermarket or small shop. They usually have them. Just tell the clerk the brand of sanitary pads, and buy a pack to bring back."

"Okay!" Sheng Sheng replied readily. If it were some other guy, they would have freaked out long before, because hearing those three words would make them uneasy, but Sheng Sheng didn’t understand, didn’t know that buying such things would be embarrassing for boys, so he didn’t feel embarrassed at all.

In fact, he was in a very good mood, feeling the sunshine was so bright and sunny, and he was glad he had not done anything sordid!

But, from now on, he must never hug her to sleep again, not for one second, it’s too scary!

Little did he know, when he reached the small supermarket near the hotel, while he was paying, the woman in line behind him scolded, "A guy buying sanitary pads, must be a pervert!"

Sheng Sheng was baffled, turned around, squinted and said, "What did you say?"
