The cooking and eating utensils need to be washed before use, so dinner will take a bit longer today,” KO glances at his wristwatch, “I’m going to play online. It’ll be ready in two hours.”
MoZhaHim decides to take a nap instead as he watches KO’s back disappear into the kitchen. Maybe KO will be gone when he wakes up again; and this is all a dream.
Although it feels like he’s dreaming, when two hours have passed, MoZhaHim shows up at the dining table and is drooling over the cooked dishes that seem to have magically appeared.
Fish in fiery sauce, stir fried horsehair crab with rice cakes, steamed chicken wings in salted egg yolk sauce, stir fried green peppers with shredded potatoes, and fried eggplant pockets……they are all his favorite dishes! MoZhaHim is about to pounce for the food without any dignity when KO comes out wearing an apron holding two bowls of rice and says, “Wash your hands.”
MoZhaHim leaves reluctantly to go wash his hands. He rinses them quickly and comes back. He takes a seat at the table and has already gobbled down two wings in a blink of an eye. KO asks, “Is it good?”
“Goad! Thay’re quite goad!” MoZhaHim mumbles with his mouth full. He reaches for half a horsehair crab, “KO, you’re too virtuous. I can’t believe you know how to cook.”
“Before working at the company, I worked as a cook.”
MoZhaHim freezes in the middle of biting a piece of the crab leg and looks at him puzzled.
A cook? He suddenly remembers that the person in front of him was once a top hacker. Does this mean that he was a cook during the day and a hacker at night?!
Does he have to be so legendary?!
MoZhaHim’s once almighty self-pride has been hurt seriously again ever since meeting Xiao Nai, “Wh-Which university did you graduate from?”
Damn it! He has no choice but to find his self-pride back in the education area. There can’t be another University that is rated higher than University A.
“Nine years of compulsory education.”
Huh?
KO glances at MoZhaHim’s confused expression and says calmly, “When I was fourteen, there was nobody left in the family. I didn’t have money, so I couldn’t continue school.”
MoZhaHim feels bad for asking something that he shouldn’t have. He wants to console him, but he’s really not good at it, so he says sincerely, “You’re very good now. You’re even better than the rest of us who have graduated from brand named universities. Although you’ve lost to Third Brother before, it’s definitely not because you don’t have the skills to beat him, it’s because you’ve got a better character ==”
KO looks at him in silence for a while and then says, “I know.”
MoZhaHim==is dumbstruck. Seriously, I’m just being nice, so there’s really no need for you to be all serious about it!
Half an hour later, all the dishes are empty. MoZhaHim caresses his big full stomach leaning on the back of the chair. He burps in satisfaction.
“I’ve decided to live here,” says KO who is sitting across the table.
“Huh? Buuuuuurp~~~” MoZhaHim’s concentration is on his stomach, so his brain clearly doesn’t know how to react.
“I’ll cook.”
“……”
“I’ll wash the dishes.”
“……”
“I’ll mop the floor.”
“……”
“I’ll do the laundry.”
“……”
“I’ll do anything.”
KO glances at a certain someone who is in a daze, and then asks purposely, “Do you want me to live here?”
MoZhaHim cries, “Yes.”
The first round of negotiation ends! KO nods and goes to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Not long later on one night, MoZhaHim is pressed down on his bed, stripped naked, and is devoured by someone. When he scorns while rubbing his bottom afterwards, Brother KO inhales his cigarette calmly and says, “I told you the first day I came, and you didn’t object to it.”
MoZhaHim says angrily, “When did you say it?!”
KO asks, “Do you remember the first thing I said that day?”
“Who the hell would remember……” although he denies it, as a top student of University A, his brain is not just for show, so when MoZhaHim quickly recalls what happened that day, he remembers.
He remembers when he opened the door, he asked, “What are you doing here?”
KO………
seems to have answered, “I’m here to use the backdoor.”
Holy!!!
“You remember now?” KO stubs the cigarette into the ashtray by his bedside, “I said it again afterwards.”
MoZhaHim really can’t recall another time, “When did you say it again?”
“I said~ cooking, mopping, laundry……I’ll do anything,” KO says slowly while staring at him with his eyes that seem like they are burning with black flames.
MoZhaHim’s body is stiff from his stare, and he immediately become outraged, “What’s wrong with that sentence?!!!”
KO, whose expression is completely the opposite of his, says serenely, “I’ll do anything, including you.”
“……”
MoZhaHim tightens his bottom and his face is full of tears.
