Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Lisa returned to the kitchen to prepare the simplest dinner; instant noodle with an egg. For a moment she thought, would the man want to eat this kind of commoners' food? Ah, was it just her overthinking about things? Moreover, when the man visited her mother's house, he always eagerly ate the simple dishes her mother made. 

Lisa brought two plates of instant noodles with eggs to the living room. Its fragrant aroma filled the room until it penetrated Oscar's sense of smell. "Please eat, sorry if the presentation is really bad. But at least it won't upset the stomach," Lisa said reluctantly.

Oscar ignored Lisa's words. His eyes were fixed on the appetizing fried egg. Not only that, but the pungent and distinctive aroma of instant noodles filled his nasal cavity immediately, making him even more curious about the taste. He grabbed a fork then took some noodles. Then he tasted it while frowning.

"So this is how commoners' instant noodles taste like!?" Oscar said spontaneously. 

"Seriously, have you never eaten instant noodles!?" Lisa asked with a surprised look. She almost fell from where she knelt.

"Yes, I have, but I have never tasted this one! The taste is different from instant noodles in Korea," Oscar replied, looking amazed by the local instant noodle brand.

"I see. I'm sorry I only have that. You know, we could've just ate out earlier," Lisa said, regretting her choice once again and lowering her head. 

"Hey, there's no need to be sad. How often do I eat commoner food like this? Sometimes I'm also tired of eating in expensive restaurants," Oscar replied casually.

The atmosphere in the living room was warm and welcoming. Lisa's memory went back to her past when the two of them ate together frequently. Now it felt like the beginning of their marriage, Lisa thought.

Knock... knock ...

Someone was in front of the gate. Lisa immediately opened the door and was surprised to find a plump woman she knew carrying grocery bags. It looked like the bag was very heavy.

"Andien! What are you doing here!?" Lisa asked in surprise.

"Hehe, sorry, but I just got paid so I want to cook shabu - shabu together with you. You have a portable stove right? Help me carry it, it's crazy heavy," Andien replied without feeling embarrassed at all.

Lisa immediately grabbed one of Andien's grocery bags and took it to the kitchen. When Andien took off her shoes and stepped inside, her eyes exchanged glances with Oscar's while the man was ladling his simple dinner.

Seeing Oscar at Lisa's boarding house made Andien both surprised and amazed. What was her boss doing at her best friend's boarding house? Not wanting to look impolite, Andien immediately lowered her head and said, "Good evening Mr. Oscar, sorry if I disturbed your visit..." 

The expression on Andien's face stiffened when she looked at the face of the man with European blood. Even that man didn't say a word other than lowering his head!

Andien immediately rushed to the kitchen and helped Lisa to get the food ready. After she looked back several times, she approached Lisa and said, "Lis! Why is Mr. Oscar here? Is he bothering you again?!"

"What the hell are you talking about! I'm trying to get better with him. We plan to reconcile after all," Lisa replied bluntly.

Hearing her short and concise explanation made Andien dumbfounded. For a moment, the plump woman was speechless. She just looked at Lisa with a blank face.

"Are you serious!?" Andien exclaimed in her shrill voice that echoed through the living room. Oscar turned his head towards the source of the sound.

"Stupid, don't be loud! It's not good if he heard it!" Lisa covered Andien's mouth then returned to preparing food ingredients.

"Sorry, sorry, but I was really surprised. I haven't seen you for a long time. It's been a long time since I talked to you. Anyway, how am I supposed to know that you were back with your ex-husband when I came here? I don't understand you, Lis. Are you crazy!?" Andien scolded as she prepared the portable stove.

"Shush! Let's save the story for later! It's better if we prepare dinner tonight quickly. I'm glad you came here. I have no other food besides instant noodles and egg!" Lisa said curtly.

"Ha ha! So you gave your ex-husband something to eat and it was Indiemie and a fried egg!? It's really bad, Lis! Hahahaha!" Andien sneered nosily. Her laughter echoed throughout the kitchen.

Lisa wiped Andien with the rag she held. "Noisy! You better bring that stove to the living room," she said with an irritated look.

Andien brought the portable stove into the living room and put it on the table. Putting down the stove, Andien said politely to Oscar, "I'm sorry Mr. Oscar, I didn't know that you were here so the food I brought might not be enough for the three of us. But I will still divide it evenly, Sir!"

"Don't worry, I just ate instant noodles, so I'll just eat a little," Oscar replied casually, raising his palm.

Andien returned to the kitchen to help Lisa cut the vegetables and prepare the soup for the shabu-shabu. In the midst of that, Andien's curiosity was so strong that she could not help asking, "Lis, how can you get back to my boss?" She whispered while looking back, making sure Oscar wasn't eavesdropping.

"Seriously, Ndien? You ask at the wrong time! He's in the living room and you want to gossip about him!?" Lisa replied, whispering loudly into Andien's ear.

"Well, Lis, I'm your best friend... Besides, we haven't talked for a long time like this. The problem is that you have moved on from your ex-husband. Hey, don't tell me he bribed you  by using his wealth again?" Andien added. Her elbow touched Lisa's arm.

"The hell you're talking about?! Is there such a thing as I, Lisa, being bought with money and wealth? Please help me, I want to listen to my life records," Lisa said, rolling her eyes. She was annoyed by Andien's nosy questions.

"I don't mean to hurt your heart or anything, it's just... Isn't it too hurry? Do you seriously want to go back to your ex-husband after he hurt you repeatedly?" Andien asked again. There was concern in her tone.

Hearing the question just now, Lisa fell silent. The woman stopped cutting and thought for a moment. What if Andien's words were true? But Lisa had seen enough evidence that her ex-husband wanted to change and improve their love relationship that was once destroyed. Lisa was not a woman who easily gave a second chance to men who have hurt her, so Oscar was actually very lucky to have been given a second chance by Lisa.

Without much thought, Lisa immediately took out her cellphone and turned on the music loudly so that Oscar didn't overhear the conversation between her and Andien.

"Ndien, watch your mouth and don't talk carelessly! First, he's your boss and he's in my boarding house now. Two, I'm not ready to tell you yet, so don't jump into conclusions based on your own assumptions. Three, you've never really fallen in love with a man, so don't ever match my feelings with you!" Lisa almost lost her temper. Although she knew Andien had no intention of offending her, the questions were asked at the most inappropriate time.

Andien immediately fell silent, staring at Lisa's face which was covered in anger. Her tongue was drained, her throat was burning dry and it was hard to reply with anything to her best friend.
