Lu Chen's heart softened while watching every change of expression in Xiu Mei's face. He didn't even notice why Xiu Mei was reacting like that at his actions. His previous stiff and cold face was gone, only that gentle look and slight curve of his lips was left.
He stifled his laugh before lifting up a spoonful of the congee again and held it near her face.
"Another one." His tone was so gentle like a feather caressing one's skin.
Xiu Mei shook her head as she kept her hands on her mouth. She was too taken aback with what she was witnessing as she kept looking wide-eyed at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen didn't let her though as he kept the spoon in front of her face. She finally made her decision. She quickly grabbed the spoon from his grasp and held the other side of the bowl that Lu Chen was holding. Her hand pulling the bowl to her direction a bit forcefully, clearly expressing her desire to grab the bowl from him.
