Marius's cooking was remarkable. I tried a few dishes and they all tasted good.
"I didn't expect you to be such a good cook. Anyone who marries you will be very happy."
"I think so too." He was still narcissistic as always, the smile on his face bright. "There are two of you now so you need to eat more."
I looked up at him. I did not notice it before but now it looked like Marius had lost a lot of weight. I grabbed a piece of meat and put it in his bowl. "You’ve lost weight recently, eat more."
"Did you just notice?" He said while chewing on the meat he had put into his mouth.
I looked down and just smiled. "Take care of yourself."
"By the way, I was looking at the entrance just now. You didn't drive here, did you take a taxi?" Marius changed the subject abruptly.
I nodded. "Yeah."
"Then I'll take you back after we’re done eating."
I did not refuse him and continued eating in silence.
After dinner, we clean up everything and left the apartment together. I got into his car and there was the smell of perfume permeating the air inside. I smiled, "Looks like there's a girl in here recently."
Marius was stunned for a while, then seemed to understand what I meant, and let out a chuckle, "I met a girl, but we haven’t gotten to first base yet."
"I know you’re a good man. If you feel good about her just get together."
Marius started the engine and turned to look at me when he heard what I said. “Do you really want me to have a girlfriend that bad, Sis Wan?"
