The structure of the kitchen was squarish and spacious.

The L-shaped dark-coloured kitchen counter had a refrigerator beside it, and a beige cabinet lodged on the top. The space looked more cramped than before because of the newly added electrical appliances.

Lisa went next to him and looked at the noodles that had started cooking in the pot. She was silent for a while before rolling up her sleeves, turned on the faucet and washed her hands. Then, she pointed at the things beside the pot.

"Then I'll put these back in the fridge?"

Jungkook glanced sideways, "Vegetables stay."

Lisa, "Okay."

She picked up the box of meatballs.

Jungkook suddenly said, "We're not eating meatballs?"

Lisa paused, "You can put some if you want to."

"Dumplings?"

"Just a few."

"Oh." Jungkook took the soy sauce next to it and said, "Give me two eggs."

"......" Lisa was speechless when he still wanted everything in this situation. She didn't want to waste food, she couldn't help but said, "Jungkook."

Jungkook, "What?"

Lisa calmly reminded, "You cooked a whole bag of noodles."

"......"

At the end.

Only some vegetables and mushrooms were added into the noodles, and the rest were put back into the refrigerator. She took two bowls, one big and one small, from the cabinet and handed him the bigger one.

Jungkook took it and filled the bowl with noodles.

Lisa stood next to him looking at the overflowing noodles in the pot. In this situation, her help would be useless if she only ate a little. However, she was worried that Jungkook would force her to eat one bowl after another.

He could really do that according to his personality after all.

Lisa suddenly said, "I may not be able to help you much."

Jungkook just finished filling up his bowl and reached out to hers, "What?"

Lisa gave him her bowl and tactfully said, "I'm not that hungry."

"......" Jungkook knew what she was thinking at a glance and said with a straight face, "I know."

The Chinese New Year Festival was still airing but there was nothing between the two to talk about.

They simply just went back to the living room.

The noodles that were just out of the pot were scalding hot, so Lisa placed the bowl on the coffee table.

At that moment, there was a sketch playing on the television and it seemed that more than half of it was already played. Lisa didn't watch the content before this, so she wasn't quite sure what it was talking about. She was puzzled.

She watched the show for a while, but she couldn't understand it, so she looked down and took a scoop of soup.

She stared hesitantly for a few seconds before drinking it slowly.

The taste was unexpectedly pleasing.

Lisa was relieved.

She happened to meet Jungkook's unpredictable eyes when she looked up.

"......" Lisa gulped down the soup and politely commented, "Your noodles are quite delicious."

"That expression of yours." Jungkook said slowly without moving his chopsticks, "I thought I had placed poison in the noodles."
