She's acting... spoiled?

With that sad, pitiful expression on her face, she was no different from an invincible killing machine! And as for her target, Lisa...

Lisa's heart had already melted into a puddle. Although completely flustered, she suddenly wanted nothing more than to bring her all the delicious food in the world!

"Why don't you eat the cake first, I'll go cook something for you. Wait here, it won't take long," she mustered before fleeing into the kitchen.

As she laid out the ingredients, she couldn't help but start to quietly grumble about Jisoo.

Why send a message saying that the cake was too sweet? Couldn't he have sent something more useful? Lisa complained that if Jisoo had told her Jennie didn't eat at the party instead, she would've had dinner prepared already. Then her heart wouldn't be aching like this from seeing her pitiful expression!

Back inside the living room, Jennie's eyes slowly regained their clarity, and her lips curved into a small smirk. She picked up the heart-shaped cake on the table and happily bit into it. The confection was creamy with just the right amount of sweetness added to it, suiting her tastes perfectly. Just as she thought, the food Lisa made was the best.

As soon as she finished eating, the man returned to the living room carrying a bowl of seafood noodles. Jennie unceremoniously took the bowl from her and dug in. Seeing her eagerness, she felt both heartache and amusement at the same time.

"From now on, tell me whenever you miss a meal so I can make something in advance," Lisa said as she handed her a tissue, acting just like an extremely virtuous wife.

"Mhm." She couldn't bear to stop eating and look up, so she continued eating as she agreed. She also felt that she had miscalculated, mainly because she hadn't expected the food at the party to taste so bad. Henceforth, she definitely would not let herself go hungry like that again.

Realizing that she had no intention of taking the tissue from her hand, and plus there was a smudge of food at the corner of her lips, Lisa hesitated before carefully leaning in to wipe her mouth for her.

Although she was the most concerned about her food, she noticed his action nonetheless. For a second, she was stunned. Then she stiffly grabbed the tissue, carelessly wiped her mouth with it, and continued eating.

How many years had passed since someone last took such meticulous care of her? Many, many years. When she became old enough to understand certain things, she was given the responsibility of taking care of herself.

When Lisa helped her wipe her mouth just now, it had felt even more intimate than when she kissed her during their date. Her emotions spun slightly out of her control as she savored the wonderful but complicated warmth. Such a small action was making her feel so much, prompting her to realize that living with another person could bring about a myriad of feelings, and she would slowly experience them one by one.

"001, does Lisa's virtuousness count toward the Mission?"

【Dear Master, no. Everyone knows that Mr. Master is very virtuous. 】001 responded with a tone that seemed to say, "you just realized?" Jennie curled her lips.

"Are you full? Do you want more?" Lisa asked thoughtfully when he saw that she had finished.

"No, I'm full." She started to shake her head but stopped when a wave of dizziness washed over her, a consequence of all the wine she'd drunk. Reaching up, she rubbed her forehead.

"What's wrong? Is your head aching? I'll massage your temples for you?" Lisa noticed her action and immediately became anxious, ignoring the bowl and chopsticks she had to clear away as he hurried to her side.
