What does the word ‘daddy’ mean?
It’s not just a change in address, nor is it just a change in identity from a boy to a man. It represents a responsibility, the responsibility of a family, the responsibility of a pillar.
Of course, at this moment, the young man with ice-blue pupils did not know the meaning symbolized by this address. He just simply wanted to hear his beautiful girl good brother call him ‘daddy.’
But soon, he would have to face his first responsibility.
A responsibility as the master of a female pet.
If you ask, what is the consequence of eating raw marinated food with iced wine? It’s not just the delicious taste, but also the burden on the stomach, and…
“Get up, Ah Le. We have an 8 a.m. class this morning.”
“Old Lin and Old Li have already gone for breakfast.”
Qin Liang, who had finished washing up, looked at the high mound of the quilt on the lower bunk, reached out and patted it, trying to wake him up.
“Can you get me a sick leave? My stomach hurts, and I feel really bad.”
A weak reply came from under the quilt.
Qin Liang frowned, sensing that something was wrong. He reached into the quilt, and his palm instantly touched a hot mass. He then lifted a corner of the quilt, and a large, glaring patch of blood suddenly came into view, making him freeze on the spot.
A cold wind blew into the quilt. Tang Yunle opened her eyes in a daze. “Wuwu~ Ah Liang, what are you doing?”
She was curled up like a shrimp, and she felt as if countless daggers were stirring in her stomach. The pain spread from her lower abdomen to her thighs and lower back, so painful that she went numb.
She didn’t know if she had eaten something bad. Her stomach had been acting up since the middle of the night. At first, it was just a slight pain, but now it was simply unbearable.
She opened her dazed eyes and looked down. The next moment, a pig-slaughtering-like cry and panic almost overturned the entire ceiling.
“Ahhhhhhh!!!”
“Ah Liang, I’m injured!!”
“Quick, call an ambulance!!”
“With so much blood, I’m going to die, I’m going to die!!”
“No, I haven’t lived enough yet. I haven’t even had a girlfriend!!”
The pink bedsheet was stained with a glaring dark red, like the set of a horror slasher film. Under the huge mental shock, Tang Yunle’s tears came out, and she spoke without thinking, saying everything that was on her mind.
By the bedside, Qin Liang reached out again and placed his hand on the girl’s hot forehead. Looking at Tang Yunle, whose eyes were red and tears were about to fall, he said in a gentle and comforting voice, “Don’t panic. You have a fever and your period.”
“My period?”
Tang Yunle was stunned.
As someone who had been single for almost twenty years, she had some understanding of this term, but she had never thought that she would experience it firsthand.
“Yes, your period plus a fever.”
Qin Liang pointed to the blood-stained bedsheet. “Didn’t you use a sanitary napkin?”
“What’s that?”
Qin Liang was at a loss for words.
He almost forgot that this good brother and roommate of his had only been a girl for a short time. How could he possibly know about this?
He only knew because of Tang Yunle’s gender transformation, he had secretly read a few good-brother-turns-into-a-wife novels.
But he couldn’t just let Tang Yunle continue to have a fever.
Qin Liang made a decisive decision. He picked her up and placed her on his own bed, quickly tore off the blood-stained bedsheet and threw it into the trash can, and then took out a spare bedsheet from his suitcase and laid it out.
Recalling the male protagonist’s actions after discovering the female protagonist’s period in a romance novel, Qin Liang learned and applied it.
After settling Tang Yunle, he looked at the small, flushed head peeking out from under the quilt, took out his phone, and flipped to the relevant plot in the novel.
Next was… brown sugar water, sanitary napkins, and a loving kiss from her boyfriend.
Uh… he crossed out the last one. He had a girlfriend, and he couldn’t do anything to betray Kele.
“You lie down first. I’ll go buy some brown sugar water and sanitary napkins,” he said softly.
Tang Yunle, who was in a daze from the fever, nodded with difficulty.
He ran all the way from the eighth-floor dorm to the supermarket next to the cafeteria and successfully bought the brown sugar water. But he was at a loss in front of the sanitary napkin shelf.
He stared at the dense model descriptions on the packaging, completely unaware of which model Tang Yunle used.
The woman behind the cash register was about thirty years old. She was obviously not a student, but a college staff member.
“What’s wrong? Haven’t you chosen yet?”
Seeing that Qin Liang was taking a long time to pay, she couldn’t help but urge him.
“A man buying sanitary napkins. He must be buying them for his female pet at home, right?”
“It’s taking him so long to choose. Don’t tell me he doesn’t even know his own female pet’s model?”
“Sigh, the atmosphere in the federation is really bad these days. Rich people can just buy female pets without checking their character. Although female pets aren’t considered human, they’re still a life.”
“You don’t even know your own female pet’s model. You’re really an incompetent master. The world is going downhill. Anyone can be a master now.”
Qin Liang opened his mouth, wanting to explain, to refute, to argue.
He only saw Tang Yunle as a friend, a roommate, a good brother, not a female pet.
But the words on the tip of his tongue were pale and powerless. He saw Tang Yunle as a friend, but in the eyes of the public in this world, they didn’t think so. You bought Tang Yunle, so you are her master, and she belongs to you.
And since you “own” her, you should take on the corresponding responsibilities.
Otherwise, you’d be no different from those couples in the original world who only gave birth but didn’t raise their children.
In the end, Qin Liang returned to dorm room 812 with a full bag of different models of sanitary napkins.
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Yunle’s consciousness gradually cleared. She only felt someone feeding her warm, sweet water, one spoonful at a time.
She opened her dazed eyes and saw the young man with ice-blue pupils sitting by the bed, bringing a cup of brown sugar water to her lips.
Seeing her wake up, Qin Liang asked, “How are you? Are you feeling better?”
“Much better.”
Tang Yunle propped herself up and looked around. Only the two of them were in the dorm.
“It’s eleven o’clock now. Old Li and Old Lin are still in class.”
Qin Liang saw through her confusion at a glance and took the initiative to explain. At the same time, he stuffed a few packs of sanitary napkins into her arms. “I didn’t know your model, so I bought a pack of each. You can try them later to see which one fits.”
The girl nodded blankly. “Did I make you miss your 8 a.m. class?”
“I don’t need those few credits.”
“Here, drink this cup of brown sugar water first.”
Qin Liang handed her the cup full of brown sugar water. Tang Yunle took it and drank it all in one go.
When she was returning the cup, she suddenly noticed the sweat on the young man’s forehead and his sweat-soaked t-shirt. She couldn’t help but be stunned. “Ah Liang, have you been taking care of me all morning?”
“Yes.”
“It was a little tiring, but I also learned something,” Qin Liang said with a smile, wiping his sweat.
“Ah Le, you know what? All my life, I’ve been taken care of by nurses, doctors, my parents, and my big brother. I never thought that I would be able to take care of someone else now.”
