My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 515 - 174 Confession_2

Du Xixi: It’s so tough being pregnant.

"Tsk." Sun Mulin suddenly perked up a bit, sitting upright and looking at Du Xixi, then at Ke Lian, with a tone filled with admiration, "Back then, Ah Lan was the first among us brothers to get married and also the fastest to have kids. I never expected he would also be the first to have a second child."

"Really fast indeed." Sun Mulin, still a single guy, shook his head, "Maybe I should really find a girlfriend. Otherwise, when Yiyi and Er Er grow up, if I’m still not married, that’ll be pretty sad."

Upon hearing Sun Mulin say this, Chen Yin, who had been quietly competing with Ke Lian, suddenly jolted and looked at Sun Mulin: "I wonder what kind of girls Mr. Sun likes? Perhaps I can introduce someone."

Du Xixi and Ke Lian exchanged glances, both with a look of excitement as if waiting to watch a good show.

Sun Mulin cradled Yiyi in one arm while patting the restless one on the head, pondering for a bit before saying, "Speaking of the kind of girl I like..."

Chen Yin perked up his ears, leaning in a bit closer to listen closely.

"I like someone who’s more well-behaved, can sit and chat with me, watch TV, occasionally join me in activities—the kind of girl like Miao Miao." Sun Mulin was genuinely answering Chen Yin’s question, and mentioning Miao Miao at the end was simply because she matched his ideal partner type, with no other implications.

Unfortunately, while Sun Mulin had no other intention, Chen Yin misinterpreted it as having that implication, standing there stunned, staring at Sun Mulin, only snapping out of it after a while under Sun Mulin’s odd gaze.

"Cough, cough, I was just feeling a bit unwell today, sorry for scaring you, Mr. Sun." Chen Yin clutched his chest, forcing a smile at Sun Mulin before weakly sitting next to Du Xixi, attempting to rest his head on Du Xixi’s shoulder for a bit of comfort.

"Splat."

Chen Yin’s head didn’t land on Du Xixi’s shoulder as intended but was caught by Ke Lian’s hand instead. Ke Lian’s left hand looped around the back of Du Xixi’s head, adopting a protective stance, calmly placing Chen Yin’s head above Du Xixi’s shoulder.

"Want to lean on a shoulder? Why not go find a girlfriend first, Your Majesty, then lean on your own girlfriend’s shoulder when the time comes?" Ke Lian considered himself to have smiled quite kindly, but in Chen Yin’s eyes, it seemed more like a threatening smirk.

Yes, Ke Lian knew he liked Miao Miao, so this smirk was indeed the kind of threat from someone holding a leverage over him!

Chen Yin sniffed, moved his head back, then hugged himself sadly, let out a pretentious hum, and turned away to avoid looking at Ke Lian.

"I thought being urged to marry was only my issue..." Sun Mulin looked at Chen Yin, seemingly realizing something, with a sense of joy at meeting a fellow sufferer, "Turns out even Your Majesty gets urged to marry, huh?"

Du Xixi squinted her eyes, flashing a meaningful grin.

What’s this? I see you as a rival, but you see me as a kindred spirit?

Yeah, Chen Yin is truly unfortunate.

***

After his boastful behavior in front of Du Xixi yesterday, Chen Yin eventually headed to Blue Star University with the Rob the next day. He changed into a new outfit, shaved his not-yet-grown beard, and styled a handsome slicked-back hair, looking as if he were attending an All-Star level banquet.

Chen Yin’s appearance was very composed, maintaining the usual majestic image of Your Majesty, but in reality, his legs were trembling when he stepped out of the hovercar.

Rob subtly stood behind Chen Yin and supported him, allowing Chen Yin to take a deep breath and gradually regain his composure. It’s normal to feel slightly scared when confessing to someone you like for the first time, normal, normal...

The traffic in and out of Blue Star University wasn’t excessive, but there were many people passing by outside and moving around inside. When Chen Yin arrived, he did not disguise himself, almost immediately catching everyone’s attention, with the Imperial Guard sensibly maintaining order around him.

With Your Majesty visiting without prior notice, the university dean was unwell and couldn’t attend, but Lin You, the head of the administrative office, along with several vice-chancellors hurrying to the scene.

However, upon arriving at the university gate, they didn’t find Chen Yin; instead, they received news that Chen Yin, under the protection of Rob, had already headed to the political economy area.
