I'm Sorry (2)

On the afternoon of the fourth day of Qiao Anhao’s break, she could feel a slight discomfort in her stomach, a pain similar to period cramps. 

Ever since young, she had always experienced period cramps. It was also not regular and would skip a few months, but the doctors had assured her that everything was fine. She had taken Chinese medicine to correct the problem and for half a year, everything had become normal. But soon after, it returned back to the irregular pattern. Too much medication was bad after all, so she went to visit another doctor who assured her once again that everything was fine. 

Qiao Anhao had mild discomfort in her stomach, but later that afternoon, it was fine. 

After having dinner, Madam Chen asked, "Mrs. Lu, is Mr. Lu working overseas? Why hasn't he been back?" 

The question left Qiao Anhao startled, and after a while, she murmured an inaudible "Yea", then continued to eat her meal.
