“You've eaten?” ask Rose, change the subject. “If not, I will cook for you.” Rose said.
Yuan was then seen letting out his spirit face. Although he had actually eaten, but for the sake of getting food from Rose's own cooking, Yuan was willing to lie.
“Not yet, I haven't eaten.” Yuan said.
Rose smiled at the man's enthusiasm. “Alright, then I will cook for you.” Rose said as she grabbed her shopping bag earlier. Then he seemed to take out some vegetables and other complete food ingredients.
“What do you want me to cook?” ask Rose who started wearing her appron.
“Successful, anything. As long as it's Rose's cooking, even if it contains rat poison or cyanide, I will definitely still eat.” Yuan said.
“Only if you talk.” said Rose while laughing. “If I give rat poison or real cyanide, are you serious about eating it? Don't joke that no-no.”.
“I'm serious, I'm not kidding. Don't you understand what I mean?” ask Yuan.
“What? What is your max?” Rose asked back.
“Ck, you're this. My grandfather, I was willing to die for you. Now do you understand how much I love you?” said Yuan who immediately made Rose's cheeks blush.
“Ehem.” heard the voice of someone deheman from inside Rose's room. “Rose, next time that Yuan wants to come to your apartment at least let me know, so I won't come here and be the mosquito repellent I am today.” Yana said from inside Rose's room.
“Oi, Yana. If you don't want to be a mosquito repellent, just go home. No one forbids you to leave here.” Yuan said slightly raising his tone.
“Yuan, what are you saying?! You realize no? Your words just confirmed that you were expelling him. Why are you recklessly driving Yana away? This is my place of residence anyway. Who lives and goes from here, I decide, not you. Even now if I want to, I can kick you out of my apartment.” said Rose who made Yuan instantly pursed his lips.
Yuan feels unfair because Rose always prefers to defend her best friend rather than herself who is the girl's lover.
“Iya, sorry. Next time I will pay attention to my words, will not speak anymore, and will not offend your te-man ba-ik again.” Yuan said by pressing the word 'good friend' so that Rose understands her who feels unfairly treated.
But Rose is still Rose who defends Yana more than Yuan. He paid no heed to the word emphasis Yuan referred to as the portes, Rose ignored it.
“Good, so next time please don't repeat again.” Rose said.
“Yana, you too, please forgive Yuan's words earlier yes. Please don't put it in your heart.” Rose said to Yana who was in her room.
“Ya of course, no problem.” replied Yana.
“Good.” says Rose.
“Rather than being busy defending your good friend, wouldn't you rather quickly cook food for me? I've been very hungry.” lamented Yuan.
“Iya, okay. I'll start cooking for you.” Rose said.
The girl then stepped towards the cook with the ingredients she had removed from the plastic bag.
Yuan calmly waited and noticed Rose who seemed to be focused on her kitchen utensils.
Under such circumstances, Yuan felt that Rose looked more charming and charmed her heart thousands of times than before.
While Rose was cooking like this, her maternal aura and warmth were so radiated clearly, that it seemed as if it was able to melt Yuan's soul which was already like being in a fantasy flower garden.
“She is very beautiful.” Yuan murmured.
Rose, who was focusing on cooking, overheard Yuan's murmur faintly, almost like the whisper of the night wind.
“What did you say? I can't hear it clearly.” Rose said without turning her head, the girl is currently seen rolling her egg.
“You are beautiful.” said Yuan without covering it up again.
“Don't tease me Yuan. I'm cooking, it bothers me so much.” Rose said with a blushing smile.
“I'm not teasing you let alone intending to disturb you. I just said the truth.” Yuan said.
“Ya it's up to you to give us what.” said Rose, he then seemed to put his rolled egg on the plate.
“Can I help you?” ask Yuan.
Rose turned to hear the offer of help from Yuan.
“Really? Do you want to help me?” asked Rose who was replied with a nod by Yuan.
“Then, can you cut this rolled egg? I want to finish my capcay.” Rose said.
“Ready to receive the order, princess Rose.” Yuan said as she moved closer to Rose and then grabbed a small knife to cut off the rolled egg that Rose had previously rolled.
“Do not joke, just quickly finish your task.” Rose said.
“Iya, yes.” said Yuan, the man was seen starting to cut the rolled egg.
As for Rose, the girl seemed to be stirring her almost perfectly mature capcay.
A few minutes they clashed at their respective tasks. Yuan looks finished first. The man then put his work on the table.
“Have you cut everything?” ask Rose.
“Hm, already.” replied Yuan.
Rose turned her head, seeing the rolled egg she had made was now cut into pieces by Yuan.
“Good also your work.” praise Rose while turning off the stove, then he seemed to reach for a plate shaped somewhat concave to be a container of capcay that he cooked.
Finished moving the capcay into the concave plate, Rose immediately put the dish on the table, adjacent to her rolled egg.
“You forgot yes? I am also good at cooking.” Yuan said in his arrogant tone.
“Yes, you are indeed an all-rounder.” said Rose.
“Ah yes, I will call Yana for a moment, I will take her to dinner with us.” Rose said, after which she immediately left in front of Yuan.
“Ck, his friend was indeed very disturbing, if only there was no him, me and Rose would definitely have a romantic dinner together.” Yuan murmured.
Ray is seen staring at Ana who is reading a popular magazine this week. The middle-aged man seemed to want to say something. But he seemed hesitant to tell his wife.
Ana, who realized her husband's behavior, for a while she just kept quiet, pretending not to know the husband's actions. But over time, Ana was also caught off guard by Ray who kept looking at her with a strange expression.
“If there's something you want to tell me, just say it. There's no need to doubt that. Your expression of doubt makes me very uncomfortable.” Ana said without taking her eyes off the magazine she was reading.
“How do you know if there's something I want to talk to you about?” asked Ray, feeling confused and astonished by Ana's correct and accurate guess.
Though Ana guessed also because she had realized Ray's attitude from the middle-aged woman's tail. Ray had been seen opening his mouth, like he wanted to talk, but then he was always puffed out.
“I'm just guessing. If that's true, great. So you don't have to hold it anymore, because I've asked you to say what you want to tell me.” Ana replied.
Ray then seemed to sigh for a while, before he finally seemed to start wanting to discuss the topic he wanted to talk to his wife.
“This, this is about Yuan.” said Ray, starting his discussion.
Hearing her son's name mentioned by her husband, Ana also felt that this would lead to serious things, so Ana immediately closed her magazine and now looks focused on staring at Ray.
“Yuan? What's wrong with him?” ask Ana.
“Eng, that, have you ever heard the news that Yuan has a lover?” ask Ray.
“Ke—lover?” Ana feels that something is wrong with the direction of this conversation, the assumption that first crossed her head is— did Ray already know that Yuan had a girlfriend?
“What Yuan has a lover?” Ana throws the question back to Ray, he can not rashly answer the question from Ray earlier. At least, Ana must first make sure, Ray asked like that because he already knows or indeed just asked to find out?
By throwing such a question back, Ana was able to judge him.
“Why ask back? I'm gonna be asking you. But from your attitude, Yuan must have no lover, right?” said Ray who immediately came to his own conclusions.
“Ii—ya, yes it might be like that.” said Ana.
Thankfully, I think Ray already knew about Yuan and Rose's relationship. It turns out he was just asking. But— why would Ray suddenly want to discuss a problem that looks not too important like this? Is he— no, there is no way Ray is discussing this because he wants to match Yuan. No, that can't happen.
“Ana.” Call Ray.
“Hm? What's up?” ask Ana.
“Me and chairman Barack, we agreed to match Yuan with Rue.”, Ray said without hesitation.
The direct statement from Ray made Ana widen her eyes in disbelief, the middle-aged woman immediately felt like there was a flash of lightning that wanted to grab her son.
“You crazy?!” that was the first word that came out of Ana's mouth. A question containing the swearing that he threw for the husband.
“I can explain it.” said Ray, starting to try to convince his wife.
“No, no. I disagree and also do not want to listen to any explanation from you.” Ana said.
“Honey, at least listen to my explanation first. Why do you answer like that? I haven't said anything yet. Besides, why did you suddenly without a second thought immediately say no? Don't you like Rue?” ask Ray.
Ana sighed, she seemed to be massaging her forehead which felt pulsating for a moment.
“Not a problem like the person or not. I just don't like to curb Yuan's future. Why should there be a match? Why should we choose her life partner if our child can find and choose her own?” said Ana.
Ray is seen gently rubbing Ana's shoulders, giving peace to the wife.
“Darling, doesn't Yuan currently have no partner? Therefore, from now on we bring him closer to Rue, let them know each other. Later also over time they are getting closer and who knows later they can fall in love with each other.” said Ray, according to his mindset.
“Do not be silly. You think it's only because they're always together, so they're gonna love each other? Your mindset is too old-fashioned.” Ana said.
“Love should not always come from habit. What if one of them already had someone in his heart? If so, they may be able to love each other, there is only one of them who has that feeling. You want to make one of them hurt because his love just becomes one-sided love?” keep Ana.
Ray seemed silent for a moment, feeling that what his wife said was true as well.
“But none of them have someone in their heart. Rue was also from what Barack had told me, the girl had already fallen for Yuan. Only Yuan left that we need to encourage to open his heart.” said Ray.
Ana felt that her husband was too selfish in imposing his will. He himself was already furious with all of Ray's words tonight.
Ray really does not understand how to understand the feelings of others, especially his own son. Although Ray did not know that Yuan already had someone to love, but at least Ray had to think about it.
Even if she had not known about Yuan and Rose's relationship, she would not have agreed to any matchmaking. Because Ana knows, marrying by force isn't always beautiful.
Not every matchmaking story ends happily like her and Ray. Because everyone has their own destiny.
“You better get out of here. I can't stand to see you anymore. Before I was really upset and could have slapped you, come out.” Ana said as she took her eyes off Ray.
“Sayang. Why do you have to get angry like this?” ask Ray.
“Why should I be angry? Of course I'll be angry. Which mother likes to see her child will suffer because of this crazy matchmaking.” Ana said.
“After all, did you never think, even though Yuan doesn't have a lover though, how about he have someone he loves? Why don't you think long before deciding?! Why?!” continued.
“Did you like to see your only son suffer because of the actions of you who wanted to match him for the sake of the company? You think I don't know why you're setting Yuan up? You're so outrageous, Ray, I don't know what to say to you. Come out. Get out! Tonight we sleep apart.” Ana said as she pushed Ray who was trying to get close to her.
“Darling, not like that. Don't misunderstand me first. Why are you so sensitive? I bet on Yuan not only for the sake of the company, but also for the good of our son's future.” Ray said.
Ana looked at Ray with her mysterious look. “I really don't understand the way you think. You are still evasive, but indirectly say that it is for the sake of the company.” he said.
“Ana, baby. Understand well my words. This is also for the good of Yuan.”'s future Ray said.
“Customs the future of Yuan? Yeah, of course you are. But his future is bleak and sad.” reply Ana.
“Not like that— ”
“It's enough, I don't want to discuss it anymore. The point is I'll never agree. You better go out and sleep in the other room now. I really don't want to be with you tonight. I'm really sick of seeing you.” Ana said.
