Back When I Was the Female Top Dog - Chapter 6

However, Instructor Liu didn’t hit me or do anything to me. Instead, he threw down a 50 yuan note.

I didn’t understand why Instructor Liu gave me this money. After all, in the three years he spent raising me, he would only pay for the food in the canteen in advance and would only occasionally give me a few yuan as pocket money.

I had never seen him give away 50 yuan in one go.

“What are you looking at, jinx? Take the money and go find Liu Tao and bring him home. Remember, if you don’t bring back Liu Tao, don’t bother coming back,” Instructor Liu looked at my shocked expression and said impatiently.

“But… but I don’t know where Brother Liu Tao is?” I lowered my head and whispered.

“He’s on the 56th floor of Xianghe Residence. Go on, take a taxi. Don’t dawdle and get lost.”

After Instructor Liu gave me the address, I grabbed the money excitedly and ran out happily.

I was happy because I could finally see Liu Tao.

Soon, I took a taxi to Liu Tao’s place. When I arrived, I got out of the car. I looked at the towering building and suddenly remembered that Instructor Liu hadn’t told me which room Liu Tao was staying in.

I looked at the building in front of me anxiously, not knowing what to do. I could only squat by the side of the road and wait for Liu Tao to either enter or leave the building.

As I waited anxiously, the dark clouds in the sky gradually became thicker. It seemed that it was going to rain.

The more I waited, the more anxious I became. However, Liu Tao still did not show up. The rain in the sky arrived much earlier than Liu Tao.

I could only casually find a unit and walk in. At this moment, I felt that I couldn’t go home. It seemed that I could only sleep in this dim corridor.

This was nothing. After all, I had slept in the cowshed when I was young. However, I was so wet that I felt uncomfortable. Also, I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to see Liu Tao today. I couldn’t help but feel disappointed.

Perhaps I was lucky, but as the rain became heavier and as I started to get sleepy, I heard the door open upstairs.

Then, footsteps sounded.

As these footsteps got closer and closer, I knew that someone was walking down the stairs. Then, I moved my butt to the side to avoid delaying the other party from going down.

“Why are you here?” Liu Tao’s voice sounded from behind me.

Hearing his voice, I turned around in surprise and shouted, “Brother Liu Tao!”

Seeing that I was covered in dust, Liu Tao said, “Did my father ask you to come?”

I was somewhat shocked. Although we had lived together for a few years, Liu Tao had never called Instructor Liu his father. I only thought that Liu Tao was Instructor Liu’s relative, but I didn’t expect him to be his father.

I didn’t answer Liu Tao’s question. Instead, I stammered, “Instructor… Instructor Liu is your father?”

“Yeah, what’s wrong? But I don’t like him. I hate him,” Liu Tao said indifferently.

I couldn’t figure it out, but I was also not interested in their relationship. I only complained, “You two sure have an awkward relationship.”

Then, I hurriedly told him the reason why I came over. “Brother Liu Tao, Instructor Liu asked me to tell you to go home.”

Liu Tao didn’t care about what I said. Instead, he asked me mischievously, “Did you come to find me yourself or did he ask you to come?”

Seeing Liu Tao smile, I couldn’t help but blush. For a moment, I was speechless.

“Tell me. If you don’t answer, I won’t go back with you. At that time, you’ll have to go back yourself.”

Liu Tao looked at me thoughtfully.

“Instructor Liu asked me to come and find you. I also wanted to come and find you,” I hurriedly blurted out. I was afraid that Liu Tao wouldn’t go back. I only felt safe when he was at home.

“Do you really want me to go back?” Liu Tao asked me.

“That’s right, Brother Liu Tao. I want you to go home.”

As I spoke, I blushed again.

“Alright, I’ll go back with you,” Liu Tao said with a smile.

Suddenly, Liu Tao looked down at me in a daze, and his smile stopped.

“Why… why are you bleeding?”

When I heard Liu Tao say that I was bleeding, I hurriedly looked down and realized that I was really bleeding. The blood had already seeped out of my pants.

“What’s going on? Why am I bleeding?” I was flustered and at a loss.

“Think about where you’re injured. Does it hurt anywhere?” Liu Tao asked me anxiously.

I was also wondering where I was injured, but I remembered that I was clearly not injured anywhere.

“No, I didn’t do anything except wait for you. How could I be injured?” I said anxiously. Seeing the amount of blood, I knew that the wound would definitely be very large, but I really did not feel uncomfortable.

“Could it be that thing?” Liu Tao looked up and asked me.

“What? What thing?” I didn’t understand what he was talking about.

“You’re really stupid! You don’t even know that you have it. Wait here and don’t move!” Liu Tao said helplessly.

With that, he took off and ran out. I didn’t know what he was doing, but I knew that he wanted me to stay put. Thus, I stood rooted to the ground.

Although I stood there without moving, I was still very afraid. I didn’t know why I was bleeding for no reason. I felt like I was dying.

I also sort of regretted coming out empty-handed and not having the chance to write a suicide note or something. After all, I haven’t lived with my mother and I haven’t interacted with Liu Tao enough. I was somewhat unwilling to give up.

However, after realizing that I wouldn’t have to be bothered by Instructor Liu’s evil claws and my classmates’ daily humiliation, I suddenly feel less afraid of death.

Just as I was letting my thoughts run wild, the drenched Liu Tao ran back panting. He was even carrying a black plastic bag.

“Brother Liu Tao, am I going to die?” I couldn’t help but ask as soon as I saw him.

Hearing my words, Liu Tao was so furious that he flicked my head. I gritted my teeth in pain.

“What are you talking about? Is this all you think about every day? I really admire you. Why don’t you know anything? How did you live to this age?”

Liu Tao was speechless. However, I also learned that I didn’t have to die.

“Put this on and change into a new pair of underwear.”

Liu Tao handed me the plastic bag in his hand. I opened it and saw a paper-like thing. Later, I learned that this thing was called a sanitary pad. There were also new pink underpants in the bag.

“I… I don’t know how to use it,” I whispered.

“I’m speechless.” Although Liu Tao sounded annoyed, he still helped me open a sanitary pad and taught me how to use it.

Then, under Liu Tao’s cover, I put on my first sanitary pad in the corridor.

“You have to remember to drink more hot water when it arrives. You’re also not allowed to eat anything cold or spicy. Also, don’t take a bath. Just use the shower.” Liu Tao’s concerned look made me feel sweet.

“Um… what’s ‘it’?” I asked him curiously.
