a/n: Here's a quick update! Been busy lately but I'll try to update as much as possible. Enjoy! 


 "Lisa, you don't need to cover for Jennie. Do you think I don't know her? It's fine if it's not edible. It's not like I will dislike you. I'm your mother. But I am sorry that you are marrying someone who can't even cook." Mother Kim felt bad for Lisa and looked kindly at her, as if he's really suffering from a lot of hardships.

Lisa didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Mother-in-Law was acting like a buffoon and this was giving her, the Daughter-in-law, a lot of pressure! Didn't she notice the cold glares Jennie was already sending his way?

"Mother, you're joking. Jennie is really good at cooking. Plus, I also like to cook so whether Jennie knows how to cook or not doesn't matter. It is getting late, I think we should start cooking as Leo will be hungry soon." Lisa knew that Mother Kim was mostly joking, but she still wanted to explain. she felt incredibly blessed to be able to be with Jennie. How would she think this was tiring?

"Ok, ok. I'll stop teasing you guys. You're quite an honest person. You won't even allow me to joke about Jennie. You'll be bullied by Jennie like this. And you're still standing there laughing foolishly. Aren't you quite a slow person?" Although it felt like Mother Kim was joking, in reality, this was the truth. Ever since he'd married her daughter three years ago, Mother Kim had already started to investigate everything about Lisa- his personality, abilities, and his feelings for her daughter. Otherwise, why would people say that only parents cared about their sons/daughters? Despite how much freedom she gave her children, she still cared and looked after them!

It was because of this concern that Mother Kim held a favorable impression of Lisa. But at that time, it seemed like Jennie didn't like her that much. As a mother, she didn't interfere with their relationship. But she thought it was a pity. Now, seeing their strong relationship, she was at last comforted.

Mother Kim had taken into account the fact that her Daughter-in-law was good to her daughter. She was happy in her heart. Naturally, she treated her Daughter-in-law like her own son and couldn't help thinking that she was always being bullied by her daughter. She felt sympathetic towards her.

"I don't bully her." Jennie calmly clarified. When had she bullied her? At most, she would just tease her. This wasn't bullying. This should be the way of love! Speaking of bullying, mother would always bully father!

"Jennie doesn't bully me." Lisa said this at the same time as Jennie. After they had spoken, they looked at each other. They felt they were good at reading each other's minds. They smiled.

"I suddenly feel like I'm a light bulb!" After witnessing their exchange, Mother Kim voiced her realization.

"Mother, stop acting like a clown. Go and cook."

There was a warm and joyful atmosphere in the kitchen. When Mother Kim saw Jennie making two exquisite dishes, she had a strange look. After all, one could tell she wasn't that skilled in the kitchen. However, it seemed like her daughter really knew how to cook!

"Is it edible?" Mother Kim asked, eagerly. However, this question held ambiguity. They didn't know whether she was asking if she could eat it now or if it was edible.

Jennie brought the dishes to the dining table, dismissing her mother's teasing. She'd especially picked two main dishes to make. The presentation of the dishes was very important too. She couldn't let her mother secretly eat this.

"Try my cooking." Jennie proudly declared to the already seated Kim family.

Fine. She liked the feeling of cooking food for people she liked. Especially when she saw everyone's shocked and eager looks. This gave her a sense of pride.
