Kim Junghyun considered himself to be a man with moderate self-control. However, when he smelled the familiar scent of Soohyun's instant noodles, he couldn't control himself.

Subconsciously, he found his legs dragging himself towards the direction of the kitchen, and standing at the door, he watched Soohyun cook.

Although they haven't been talking, Junghyun always found his eyes wandering off to her, and they observed every single action of hers. Her emotions affected him, and Junghyun did not like how he was able to do such a thing.

His eyes gazed upon Soohyun as she cooked whilst wearing a wide smile upon her face, and he found himself unable to move his eyes off of her. More than the scent of the food, it was her who was attracting his attention this time around.

Junghyun found himself panicking when her eyes fell upon him, and he felt as if he was caught stealing something. His cheeks burned at that instant, and he wanted to run away.

However, Soohyun's words stopped him. His want to be with Soohyun, coupled with his desire to eat the instant noodles she cooked, he decided to agree along with her offer.

Noticing the smiling expression on her face, Junghyun felt guilty stab him. He was almost about to hurt her last time around, and the thought of that made him feel nauseous.

Even though she was Minhyun's wife, he did not want to hurt her, and his hand trembled. He was afraid that he will be hurting her this time around. The last time was enough to make him be cautious around her.

"You seem to be happy at the mention of that," Soohyun vocalised, "I'll add some more noodles, and bring it over in ten minutes. You should just go and sit at your place."

Kim Junghyun wanted to say something, but he did not know what to say. His emotions were a mess at this moment, and he was afraid of spilling out his emotions the moment he opened his mouth.

He simply nodded before turning his back towards Soohyun and walking over to the table. Just this one meal— After that, he could go back to avoiding her. After all, he himself was not sure when he might attack Soohyun again.

"It's done!" Soohyun exclaimed whilst she stepped towards the dining table with a tray holding two bowls of instant noodles.

Walking over to Kim Junghyun, she placed his bowl of instant noodles in front of him and handed him his chopsticks. Silently, Junghyun stared down at the bowl of noodles.

Whilst wearing a smile on her face, Soohyun walked over to her place— which was opposite to Junghyun— and sat down upon it. Picking up her chopsticks, she was ready to eat the food in front of her.

As she picked up some noodles with her chopsticks, Soohyun blew upon it for it to become colder before placing it inside her mouth.

While she ate the noodles, she noticed how Junghyun devoured the noodles hungrily, and seeing how he was relis.h.i.+ng the food, she felt satisfaction within her.

Nevertheless, as he continued to eat, she did not receive any words from him. Although she wasn't expecting a thank you from Kim Junghyun, she half expected him to insult her.

There was no such words that left his mouth, and Soohyun found herself feeling annoyed at him at this point. It should be her being angry at him and not the other way around.

Letting out a scoff, Soohyun decided to concentrate on eating. Since he wasn't interested in holding a conversation with her, she had no whatsoever desire to force him into it.

After all, she wasn't desperate to talk to him in the first place.

After Soohyun put in the last strand of noodles inside her mouth, she raised her head to look towards Kim Junghyun and was taken aback when she noticed that he was staring at her.

He had already finished eating his bowl of noodles yet he continued to sit down at his chair and watched her eat. Soohyun raised her eyebrows at him.

"If you are done eating, give me your bowl; I'll be was.h.i.+ng it," Kim Junghyun vocalised.

His words made Soohyun widen her eyes, and being shocked by his words, she choked on the noodles. Coughing, she grabbed the gla.s.s of water from beside her and drank down its content.

As tears were visible at the corner of her eyes, she looked up to stare at Kim Junghyun and exclaimed, "W-What?!"

"Stop yelling, Loud Lady!" Junghyun vocalised.

This was the first time Junghyun had offered to do the dishes, and judging by how he was, she was completely astounded by his words.

Not wanting to lose this opportunity, Soohyun smiled at him and said, "Thank you for doing the dishes. Then, I will be taking my leave now! Have a fun time doing the dishes."

After saying that, Lee Soohyun pushed back her chair and stood up. Before Junghyun could change his mind and call her back, she decided to make a run for it.

As she rushed towards the other way, Junghyun had his eyes on her back, and seeing her run away from him did not leave a pleasant feeling within him.

Soohyun, on the other hand, was happy on this opportunity. Now that Junghyun had offered to do the dishes, she could begin her exploring early. In her opinion, Kim Junghyun had finally learned to be grateful.

"Now, that I have decided to start my exploring, where do I start with— attic or cellar? Should I take Kim Junghyun along with me? No, Soohyun, you can not do that or else your plans will be ruined," She mumbled to herself.

"Han Minhyun, I am sorry for creating any trouble in advance, but it's your fault for leaving me here without any warning or guard. After all, you had clearly mentioned how I am a five year old mentally, and five year olds create trouble."
