Gu Xiaoer had been holed up at home these past few days, wholeheartedly preparing her design drafts. Time was already tight, and now she had to buckle down even more.
So, when Ai Le called and asked her to go out and clear her mind, she flatly refused.
Refused once... twice... thrice...
Forget it, Gu Xiaoer relented.
The man had disappeared for several days, and she had been fretting about it for just as long. It was a good idea to get out and clear her head, or she would really start to mold if she stayed cooped up at home any longer.
In a modest-sized coffee shop, Gu Xiaoer and Ai Le had only ordered two cups of coffee, but they had been sitting there for the entire afternoon.
Gu Xiaoer was half sprawled over the table, listless.

"Mistress, that makes the one hundred ninety-ninth sigh since you met me today. Got a big grudge with me, have you? Is it that painful to see me?"
Ai Le knocked on the table in front of Gu Xiaoer, frustrated.
