At first Qin Yaozhi ignored Gu Mang and played her game silently.

After a few moments passed she said carelessly, Because of the medicine I took.

What medicine? Gu Mang drawled languidly, as though they were talking about the weather.

Progesterone. Immediately after saying that, Qin Yaozhi said again, Hurry and come save me. The other party keeps attacking me.

In the game Gu Mang headed in a different direction towards Qin Yaozhi. When was the last time you had your period?

Qin Yaozhi thought for a moment. About half a year ago, I think. I dont really remember. Ive taken progesterone shots and taken medicine but it wont come.

The girls period was late. The medicine she got from the hospital was either oral progesterone or injected progesterone. It was detrimental to her body.

Normally, after taking the medicine for more than half a week, ones appetite would start to decline. The symptoms varied from person to person, but most patients stated that they felt nauseous after eating, were unable to swallow their food, had low energy, and often experienced absent-mindedness.

Their visage would also be affected as would their appearance.

However, it was rare for Qin Yaozhis period to be delayed for so long despite taking so much medicine. Gu Mang looked up at her. There were prominent dark circles around her eyes and the eyes themselves were extremely bloodshot.

Her gaze returned to the phone screen. When did your insomnia start?

Half a year ago. Qin Yaozhi and Gu Mang killed two people from the other party and the former smiled. Youre awesome.

Gu Mang raised an eyebrow as she chased after another player. She continued talking about her illness. Stress, impatience, staying up late, insomnia, irregular work and rest times. Are you feeling any other discomfort?

Upon hearing this, a stunned Qin Yaozhi looked at her. How did you know?

She had only said that she takes progesterone, yet Gu Mang could list all her symptoms.

Gu Mang said nothing and continued to play the game indifferently. Qin Yaozhi was also silent.

A regular period indicated that a girls body was healthy. Her emotions had started to become increasingly chaotic half a year ago. She got angry easily, was impatient, and stayed up so late that she could only sleep after the sun rose. Her work and rest times were irregular and her period had stopped.

Her results plummeted and in the end her brother had no choice but to help her apply for a leave of absence from school. She had gone to the doctor after realizing her period had not come in two months. She took so much progesterone that she felt like vomiting at the mere sight of food and her entire body felt unwell.

She had taken so much medicine but her period simply wouldnt come. It had stopped for half a year and during that time period she had seen countless doctors who could do nothing for her. There was no knowing how health- threatening such a condition was, so everyone in the family was extremely worried.

After a few moments of silence, Qin Yaozhis lips twitched and she said, My mom thinks that I have been pretending to be sick because I dont want to go to school. But can I really pretend to not have a period? She keeps judging me.

This was what her mom thought. Whenever Qin Yaozhi said that she felt unwell, her mother thought that she simply didnt want to go to school.

Gu Mangs fingers moved rapidly, changing her equipment in between moves. Have you been eating junk food?

Yeah. I eat anything that is very oily or spicy. Ill eat it if its bad for my body. Qin Yaozhi looked up and smiled. Arent I a very disobedient person? Im deliberately torturing my mother.

Gu Mang raised a eyebrow. How does she treat you?

The smirk on Qin Yaozhis face deflated.

Everyone knew that she was deliberately sulking at her mother and even she herself admitted it openly. In the end, everyone simply blamed her for being immature and unfilial.

Gu Mang was the first to ask Qin Yaozhi what her mother did to her to make her lash out. No child liked to fight with their parents, yet there were so many parents who liked to control their childrens freedom and wanted to raise them as though they were their puppets.

They constantly went back on their word and only let the child do things that they thought were beneficial to them. They did not care about the childs opinions and aspirations.
