Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1162
“Married men are different. You cook for yourself, but I’m cooking for me and my wife. It’s sheer happiness to watch my wife eat
my food. It’s the type of happiness you single people will not understand.
“Even a nice lobster won’t taste as good as when you’re having a meal alone. The simplest food tastes delicious when I eat with
my wife. It’s just not comparable.”
Duncan replied, “That’s a new way of looking at men who cook. You’re talking as if those who never cooked a day in their lives
will never find happiness. I can’t cook like you, but I can find a wife who does. The results are still the same.”
Zachary said, “Are you looking for a wife or a cook?”
Stumped, Duncan changed the topic. “Make me one too.”
“Do it yourself. You should practice and gain experience. I can guarantee your future wife will be happy if you cook her a steak.
It’s romancing her.”
Duncan pursed her lips. “Zachary, I’m a guest in your home.”
“An uninvited guest who won’t leave is not a guest. You can ask the chefs if you don’t want to do it yourself. They can start on
your breakfast once I’m done.”
While Zachary was hogging the kitchen, the chefs were chatting away with the gardeners in the yard.
“Fine, fine. I’ll do it myself. Do you think I can’t cook? I’ve learned a lot being out there in the world, you know.”
Duncan started from the bottom back when he was on the other side of the law. It was common for the henchman to be on
kitchen duty to serve the boss.
After making his wife a sumptuous and nutritious breakfast, Zachary went into the garden to cut a bunch of blooming roses. He
trimmed the edges and wrapped the red roses into a bouquet.
He put the bouquet on Serenity’s seat before going upstairs to wake her.
Watching everything Zachary did for Serenity, Duncan secretly snapped a photo and sent it to their mutual best friend, Josh.
Duncan even attached a message: [Take notes, boy.]

Josh was quick to reply: [Shouldn’t you watch and learn? I’m a natural when it comes to romance. Zachary is taking notes from
me. I’m his love guru.]
Duncan grinned. “Oh, right. Josh has the highest EQ.”
Josh and Jasmine’s love life had been smooth sailing without any turbulence.
“Duncan, why are you at Zachary’s place?” Josh sent a voice note.
“I’m here to take cover.”
Josh sent a LOL emoji.
Needless to say, the pressure from Duncan’s mother for him to get married forced him to seek refuge at Zachary’s home.
Duncan was speechless.
Slipping the phone back into his pocket, Duncan began eating his steak.
Hmm... It tasted fine.
Duncan had no problem eating alone.
He could not experience the happiness Zachary was talking about. Nevertheless, Zachary and his wife soon opened Duncan’s
eyes to the joy of married life.
With Zachary and Serenity flaunting their love during breakfast, Duncan lost his appetite.
He wanted to get a taste of Zachary’s steak as Serenity ate with great gusto.
From then on, Duncan decided never to have breakfast with the couple. They enjoyed a great feast, but he did not-oh wait, all he
had was an unwelcome visual feast.
The couple went out hand-in-hand for a stroll after breakfast.
Zachary used to get to the office first thing in the morning.
Now, he was no longer in a rush to leave.

Holding a mug of coffee, Duncan stood at the door and watched as the young couple held hands and shared laughter and talk,
roaming a distance away. For once, loneliness was getting to Duncan.
Should he consider entering the next big phase of his life?
