A Coincidence (3)

Before he could finish his sentence, the bowl of congee was already splashed right across the floor. Gu Xijiu had pushed the bowl off the table.

"Go away!" She sternly said as soon as the bowl shattered on the floor.

Fan Qianshi was utterly surprised by Gu Xijiu's sudden reaction. His fingers immediately started to tremble uncontrollably under his sleeves. Before he could explain himself further, Gu Xijiu was already shouting at him. "I know myself better than you do, so there is no need for you to worry about me. Stay away for a month and don't show up again."

Fan Qianshi clenched his fists. "Yes," he finally agreed after a long pause. He exited her room slowly.

The room fell into complete silence after his departure. The congee was still warm on the floor, infusing the air with its delicious scent. Gu Xijiu sighed while looking at the wasted food. The scent of the delicious congee was still tempting her.
