Chapter 372: Chapter 372
Ling Momo secretly bit down on her teeth, still waiting for him to understand. Her fingers couldn’t help but start to pick at her teeth. Seeing that Li Qingshen hadn’t reacted yet, she spoke up again to remind him, "It’s, it’s, the trouble all women have every month..."
After saying this, Ling Momo’s face instantly flushed red.
She had been direct enough, hadn’t she?
If he still didn’t get it, she would really have to close her eyes and blurt out that her period had come!
The trouble all women have every month... Li Qingshen blinked, and then, a second later, he finally realized what she meant. His originally fair complexion instantly turned a slight shade of red as he quietly asked, "Then, are you okay?"
When Ling Momo heard Li Qingshen ask this, her face became so hot it was as if it had caught fire. Her eyes darted left and right, "It’s okay... just, just don’t have the thing..."
Ling Momo thought to herself that if it took Li Qingshen so long to respond to her mentioning her period, then replacing "that thing" with a sanitary pad would probably take him just as long to understand. So, she bit down on her teeth, about to speak, when Li Qingshen beat her to it, saying, "It’s okay, I’ll figure something out for you. You go back to the tent first, it’s cold outside."

Only then did Ling Momo stand up and follow Li Qingshen back to the tent. He turned and walked out and, after a while, came back with his hands full of toilet paper, which he handed to Ling Momo, "We don’t have sanitary pads, so I brought all the toilet paper I could find. Do you think this will be enough?"
Ling Momo’s face was still red. She nodded hastily, took the toilet paper, and quickly replied, "It’s enough."
Then, without another glance at Li Qingshen, she lay down again.
Li Qingshen watched the silent Ling Momo for a while, then turned off the flashlight and also lay down, maintaining a distance between them.
They were in the mountains; the harsh environment made even a cold-resistant tent somewhat uncomfortable. Ling Momo was prone to painful periods, and this time her menstrual cycle had been delayed for quite some time. Lying there, it wasn’t half an hour before she felt waves of pain in her lower abdomen.
At first, it wasn’t particularly painful. Ling Momo silently prayed that it wouldn’t turn into a heart-wrenching agony, but it seemed like fate was playing a cruel joke on her. Not only did the pain not subside, but it actually started to get worse.
Ling Momo couldn’t help but toss and turn. Li Qingshen hadn’t slept well to begin with. To be exact, ever since they started sharing a tent, he hadn’t had a good night’s sleep.
Now, with her moving around, it was making him restless too. Li Qingshen forced himself to ignore it, lying still as if he were dead.
After a while, Ling Momo finally stopped moving. Li Qingshen’s mind gradually settled down, and he slowly closed his eyes, counting numbers in his head. He didn’t know how long he counted for when sleepiness hit him, and his consciousness gradually slipped into a state of drowsiness.
However, before Li Qingshen fell completely asleep, he began to hear faint, soft moaning sounds. He immediately became a bit more alert, pricking up his ears. After a short while, he heard the moaning again, coming from not far off, from Ling Momo. Li Qingshen immediately sat up.
