When Gu Xiaomo woke up, it was already midnight. The sky outside was very dark, and she struggled to get up and walk to the balcony to look outside.
Her room faced the back garden of the hospital.
There were many tall, towering trees.
Since it was winter, all the leaves had fallen off, and only the branches stretched out horizontally on each tree.
They looked a lot like skewers.
Someone came up behind her and draped a piece of clothing over her shoulders.
She didn't need to look to know who it was.
Gu Xiaomo said, "I want to eat skewers!"
"..." Qiao Yu said, "I've made congee for you. Have some congee!"
"I want skewers!"
"Momo! You have a fever! Yet you still want skewers! How about some congee?"
"What's so good about congee?"
"I put shredded meat in it! It's delicious!" Qiao Yu said, "It's cold outside. Come inside and have some congee!"
"Why are you so stingy? If you won't give me skewers, I'll go buy some myself!" Gu Xiaomo said as she was about to head out.
