I clearly remember every instance of bullying Li Qingyao subjected me to, so I easily found the scene of her bullying today.

Just as I hid in a corner, I saw Li Qingyao and her two followers, Feng Yuan and Lin Tian, blocking a girl.

The girl was thin and pale.

Her name was Zhou Chiruo.

The past me, the present Lu Qinan.

"Yaoyao?" Zhou Chiruo called out joyfully.

But Li Qingyao's face twisted, and she glared at Zhou Chiruo with a fierce voice, "Who allowed you to call me that? What kind of thing are you? Do you think you don't have to drink ice water anymore just because you're trying to please me?"

Li Qingyao raised her chin at Feng Yuan beside her, and Feng Yuan immediately restrained Zhou Chiruo. Lin Tian opened a bottle of ice water and poured it into Zhou Chiruo's mouth.

"What... are... you... doing..."

The more Zhou Chiruo resisted, the stronger Feng Yuan's control became. Feng Yuan was an athlete and had extraordinary strength.

Seeing Zhou Chiruo's painful expression, Li Qingyao smiled with satisfaction.

Before leaving, she patted Zhou Chiruo's face and spoke softly but maliciously, "If you dare to call me that again, I'll add another bottle of ice water. Got it? You poor wretch."

Zhou Chiruo stared in shock at the direction Li Qingyao left, but in the next moment, she suddenly clutched her stomach, a pained expression on her face.

I watched this scene coldly, but my nails dug into my palm.

Drinking ice water during menstruation was one of Li Qingyao's essential means of bullying me.

For every month of the semester, I would drink ice water as many times as there were months, to the point where my dysmenorrhea became more severe than the average person's.

However, I never expected that this shadow of pain would reemerge after meeting Lu Qinan.

Zhou Chiruo went to the school clinic, and the school nurse gave her a few painkillers before leaving. I took the opportunity to enter.

I grabbed Zhou Chiruo's hand as she was about to take the medicine and asked, "Lu Qinan, is dysmenorrhea easy to endure?"

"Ruo Ruo..." Lu Qinan smiled bitterly. "So, it really is so unbearable for girls during their periods."

"Do you know? Throughout high school, whenever I had my period at school, I would drink your sister Qingmei's ice water every month! And you can't endure it after just one drink?"

After a pause, I suddenly smiled faintly. "I think you're right. I should learn what it means to sense, sympathize, share, and suffer."

I suppressed my smile and took the medicine from her hand, coldly saying, "Don't take the medicine, endure it."

Lu Qinan's expression froze, and his eyes widened.

I knew he remembered.

He remembered what he had done to me.

It was my first day of menstruation, and Li Qingyao brought a cup of Frappuccino to the office, saying she wanted me to drink it.

I refused, and she looked at Lu Qinan with a pitiful and helpless expression, saying, "I know Chiruo worked late last night to help me revise the proposal, so I bought her a Frappuccino to express my gratitude. Brother Qinan, did I do something wrong?"

Lu Qinan patted her head and spoke gently, "You did nothing wrong."

Then he turned to look at me, his expression cold. "If Yaoyao kindly offers you a drink, then drink it."

I bit my pale lips. "I'm having my period."

Lu Qinan knew I had dysmenorrhea. Every time I had my period, he would lovingly hold me, rub my stomach, and comfort me. He would even personally cook brown sugar water for me.

Even after my period ended, he wouldn't allow me to drink cold beverages.

But now, he just pursed his lips and ordered me, "Drink!"

I shook my head, and his coldness deepened. "If you don't drink it, don'tblame me for being heartless."

My eyes teared up, and I hesitated for a moment before taking the cup from Li Qingyao's hand and drinking it.

The next moment, I felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen, as if a knife was stabbing me repeatedly.

My face turned pale, and I clutched my stomach, unable to stand up straight.

Li Qingyao and Lu Qinan looked at me coldly, without a trace of concern.

That was the first time I realized that love could be so cruel.

Now, the tables had turned.

Lu Qinan looked at me, shock and guilt evident in his eyes.

I smiled sarcastically, my voice filled with bitterness. "Lu Qinan, you said it yourself. If Yaoyao kindly offers you a drink, then drink it."

I turned and left the clinic, leaving behind a dumbfounded Lu Qinan and a bewildered Zhou Chiruo.

From that day on, I decided to make Lu Qinan pay for everything he had done to me. I would make him taste the pain and suffering he had inflicted on me.

And I would start with Zhou Chiruo, the girl he cared about so much.

After all, revenge was a dish best served cold.
