2783 A Coincidence 3 (1/2)

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.

She liked the taste of congee. Although she no longer needed sustenance from food, she could not keep herself away from all the delicious food in the world. Very often, she would disguise herself and join the locals in tasting good food.

Di Hao watched as Gu Xijiu hesitantly looked at the wasted congee on the floor for a while before clearing the mess up. He shook his head in disapproval, for he knew that Fan Qianshi was indeed hoping for something more from his relationship with Gu Xijiu. Nonetheless, Gu Xijiu obviously did not feel the same way about him. Fan Qianshi was only a disciple in her eyes.

Did Fan Qianshi become evil in the end by turning his love into hatred? To find out, Di Hao had to continue.

The scent of the congee managed to trigger Gu Xijiu's appetite. She decided to disguise herself so that she could blend into the crowd at a famous restaurant in the Monster Kingdom. All she asked for was a bowl of red rice congee.

The place was rather crowded and filled with uproarious talk and laughter. However, Gu Xijiu did not request for an independent room. She enjoyed the hustle and bustle of life at times. The liveliness there certainly excited her.

The red rice congee from the restaurant tasted excellent, though it was a little expensive. A bowl of congee cost her 1,000 spiritual stones. Fortunately, Gu Xijiu had many spiritual stones with her, so the price did not bother her at all.
