What to do if you become the female lead's best friend?

Chapter 11

In her past life, Gu Jin often heard her female friends lamenting the pain of menstrual cramps.

“When it hurts, it’s like the end of the world, so painful you wish you were dead…”

“It feels like a burly man is punching you in the stomach with all his might…”

“The pain is like a dull knife repeatedly slicing through your flesh…”

Every time she heard these complaints, Gu Jin thought they were exaggerating. She only experienced a slight soreness in her lower abdomen and waist a couple of days before her period, and once those days passed, it felt like nothing had happened. She couldn’t understand their pain.

Now, she had the chance to experience it herself!

Gu Jin furrowed her brow tightly, her teeth chattering, her face flushing and then paling. A thin layer of cold sweat formed on her delicate nose, and the veins on her fingers bulged. Her legs, pressed against the man’s thighs, began to twitch uncontrollably.

Wave after wave of pain crashed against Gu Jin’s sensitive nerves, making her head spin and nearly causing her to faint.

She had underestimated the situation.

Gu Jin, originally a calm person who didn’t like to exercise, had a far worse physical constitution compared to her previous body, and her periods had always been irregular. Even in the summer, she relied on heat packs and hot water bottles during her period. Sometimes, when the pain was severe, she needed to take a few painkillers.

This was her first experience of this kind since becoming Gu Jin, and she felt like she was losing half of her life.

If possible, she really wanted to apologize to those friends for her previous lack of understanding.

Mu Mingcheng gently brushed the stray hairs from Gu Jin’s ear, smiling contentedly as he enjoyed the softness in his arms.

From their first meeting, he knew she was attractive and had a good figure. Her personality, however, was not as dull and boring as described in the files. After all, someone as perceptive as her, who could immediately recognize his dangerous nature, was definitely not ordinary.

Her fitted cheongsam was still on, her snow-capped peaks towering, her slender waist nearly insubstantial, and her long thighs brushing against each other through the slit in the dress.

The extreme contrast between softness and hardness made Mu Mingcheng somewhat restless.

His gaze darkened, and his breath became heated. The situation seemed to be slipping out of his control.

But Mu Mingcheng had never been one to suffer in silence. He had chosen business over military service due to psychological reasons and had never had a woman by his side.

Now that he had encountered an interesting woman, he was determined to take his chance.

Feeling tempted, he reached out and pinched the girl’s milky white earlobe.

Under the light, the delicate earlobe seemed to be bathed in the sunset’s glow, rosy and enchanting.

Seeing this, he swallowed hard, his mouth dry, and he really wanted to taste it.

But he was destined to be disappointed.

Mu Mingcheng had initially admired Gu Jin’s awareness as her resistance lessened. However, it seemed the situation wasn’t as he had thought. When he leaned in, the girl’s tremors intensified, and she was ice-cold to the touch.

Her originally smooth, pink lips had turned pale, making her look pitiful.

Feeling a sudden chill, Mu Mingcheng found it hard to accept.
