Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything
Chapter 495 - Why Does It Taste So Salty!?Even though their small kitchen looked like a broken ship, the atmosphere was warm and filled with laughter. Today, Lisa is really tired and all she wants is sleep. Fortunately, Vira's presence on that day made her laugh and forget the problems she had to face tomorrow.
Not long after, Vira turned around and brought a large bowl of steaming vegetable soup. The smell of the soup made Lisa's stomach vibrate even more. Even though Lisa herself wasn't sure about the taste of her friend's cooking, the feeling of hunger blinded her senses!
"Wait! Wait!" Vira exclaimed before Lisa could reach the bowl. "This is mine. I cooked you another bowl."
Lisa is now having trouble swallowing her saliva. The soup that seemed to sparkle in the light starved her even more. Not to mention the rich aroma permeating, filling every corner of their small kitchen.
"Oh okay, hurry up! I'm so hungry!"
Vira chuckled, "But this is my first dish, so don't expect it to taste good like restaurant food!"
The woman then turned her body and took two plates containing various kinds of dishes. Omelette mixed with corned beef, slightly burnt fried chicken, and potato fritters. All the complementary dishes are suitable to be eaten with the still steaming soup.
Since this was Vira's apartment, the woman brought Lisa a plate filled with warm rice. Vira then slightly lowered her head, put her left hand on her back, and said in a tone so polite that Lisa couldn't help but laugh. "Please enjoy the dish."
After taking the plate from Vira's hands, Lisa chuckled again. The woman tied her long hair back and replied, "Thank you, it's nice to be able to taste your cooking though I'm not sure what it tastes like!"
Hearing that made Vira open her mouth wide. She hit Lisa's back while pursing her lips, "You're so mean!"
Vira pulled the chair right across from Lisa and took the vegetable soup with her. To be honest, she wasn't sure about the taste of the food herself. But the delicious aroma that fills the small kitchen makes her confident!
"Try to taste my cooking, sister. Give me honest feedback later! Who knows if I can be a chef someday!" Vira said while looking at Lisa who was cutting the corned beef omelette.
Lisa just cleared her throat and couldn't wait to fill her empty stomach. Without blowing first, she immediately put the corned beef omelette in her mouth. And, at that moment, she was afraid that high blood pressure would come to her in the near future!
Why does this one taste so salty!? It's so salty that she felt she isn't eating an omelet, but a teaspoon of salt!
Vira watched Lisa eat with a face full of high expectations. It must have tasted so good that Lisa couldn't even express her feelings!
"How is it?" Vira asked curiously.
Lisa couldn't answer her question at all. Her tongue was still in shock with the strong salty taste. How could she tell Vira how she felt now? She'll only hurt her and make her feel guilty.
At the same second, Lisa immediately remembered the taste of Oscar's cooking that William had previously told her about. The boy must have felt what she was feeling right now. If Vira and Oscar took part in a cooking competition, Lisa did not know who would be insulted more. Oscar with his bland taste of food, or Vira with her salty dishes.
Since Lisa didn't know how to answer, she gave Vira a small smile. "Try to improve your cooking."
"Wow! It must taste really good!" Vira said with a tone full of confidence.
She immediately cut the omelette, took potato cakes, and devoured them at the same time. Not long after, Vira immediately vomited all the food that tasted so salty!
Seeing that made Lisa feel sorry and amused at the same time. She grabbed a glass that was already filled with water and shoved it into Vira's hand. She patted her hand, trying to encourage her.
"I think the taste of your cooking is still pretty good. Yes, I mean it's pretty good for people who are still learning to cook."
Vira put the glass on the table and then looked at Lisa with reddened eyes. She shouldn't let Lisa eat the food before she tasted it first!
The messy kitchen, along with the wasted cooking ingredients, made Vira feel really embarrassed. "Sis, I swear I have no intention of cooking this salty! Duh, let's just order food online! My stomach and your stomach will hurt from eating my cooking..."
Vira got up from her chair and started to clean up the bowls and plates that filled the mini bar while muttering, "It seems that I really don't have the talent to cook..."
"Hey, I don't think there is anyone who can be good at it on their first day of learning. So don't be discouraged! You can still learn to cook again tomorrow, the next day, or whenever you want," Lisa said, trying to encourage her.
Despite listening to Lisa's encouraging words, Vira still felt disappointed. Not only disappointed, but the feeling of shame gnawed at her even more! She just humiliated herself in front of Lisa, her senior who's now her roommate.
Finally, after cleaning up their messy kitchen, Lisa ordered fast food which was located not far from Vira's apartment. Now, the two women were sitting side by side on the sofa in the living room. While waiting for their food to arrive, Lisa is busy in front of her laptop screen while Vira plays an online game that she played with William the other day.
"Damn it!" Vira grumbled without taking her eyes off the phone screen. "Sis, when will Willian play here again? My rank in this game is getting worse and worse!"
"Hmm, I don't know." Lisa's reply was short. Her rumbling stomach coupled with her tired brain from thinking about the big project made her mood somewhat bad.
Perhaps Vira realized what happened to Lisa as soon as she heard the woman's cold tone. She raised her eyebrows and glanced at Lisa for a moment. Instead of being scolded by her teammates, the woman chose to leave the game.
Then she asked carefully, "Sis, why do you look so melancholic?"
