My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 640 - 216: Lamb Offal Soup (Part 1)

But the mechanical soldiers have almost finished moving the luggage, so Du Xixi didn’t mention the space button. Instead, she noticed Chen Yin sitting very close to Miao Miao and joked, "Since when did my brother become so clingy? It’s winter so at least you’re not afraid of the heat, but if it was summer, wouldn’t you melt all over my Miao Miao?"

As she spoke, Du Xixi’s gaze casually swept over Chen Yin’s slowly moving large hand, her smile slightly playful.

Chen Yin was stealthily trying to reach out and hold Miao Miao’s hand. It wasn’t that he feared Du Xixi and Ke Xing seeing it, but he hadn’t been with Miao Miao for long, and these affectionate, intimate gestures made him feel a bit bashful inside.

He felt embarrassed and feared Miao Miao felt the same.

Chen Yin’s hand was almost touching Miao Miao’s small hand placed beside her when Du Xixi spoke, scaring him to withdraw his hand instantly, even moving his body a little away from being nearly pressed against Miao Miao.

Chen Yin’s reaction was drastic, but once he collected himself, he raised a brow, sat back down directly, wrapped Miao Miao in his arms, and entwined the hands he had been trying to hold with tightly interlocked fingers.

Chen Yin said, "Miao Miao is my girlfriend; who else would I cling to if not her? Moreover, I used to be quite clingy, but if I clung to you, your Ke Lian would probably beat me to death..." 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

The few words Chen Yin said afterward were in a lower voice, almost whispered, but undoubtedly exaggerated. No matter how mad Ke Lian is, he’d at most give him a good punch, not enough to "beat him to death."

Du Xixi "was forced" to scatter some dog food, not understanding why the teasing person suddenly shifted from Chen Yin to herself. She puffed her left cheek, turned her head away from Chen Yin, but suddenly laughed, saying to Miao Miao who was seated front-left of her, "Sweet Miao Miao, come sit with your sister, okay?"

Du Xixi occupied a double-seat sofa all by herself. When Ke Lian was home, the couple always sat on that sofa. Now with Ke Lian out, only Du Xixi sat there, others usually wouldn’t take a seat there. Even Yiyi and Er Er often sat cleanly on the carpeted floor instead.

Miao Miao, always obedient to Du Xixi, was bright enough to know Du Xixi was "getting back" at Chen Yin. Despite hesitating briefly, lightly biting her lower lip, she chose Du Xixi and gently freed herself from Chen Yin’s large hand before settling next to Du Xixi in a few steps.

Du Xixi raised an eyebrow, somewhat provocatively and boastfully said to Chen Yin, "Oh dear, excuse me, I’m quite clingy too, especially today; I’m extra clingy to Miao Miao. Brother, you love me so much, surely you wouldn’t be mad, would you?"

Everyone: ...

Ke Xing: Is this scheming woman really my daughter-in-law?

Miao Miao: Is this scheming woman really my lady?

Chen Yin: Is this scheming woman really my sweet sister?

For the first time, Du Xixi exuded a calculative aura, believing she still had room to improve. But she didn’t plan to be calculating again, as she leaned against Miao Miao, whose delicate and soft demeanor bore a faint, unidentifiable fragrance, prompting Du Xixi to take a deep breath.

Chen Yin: ... Thanks for the invite, unsure whether to clench my fists or not.

One’s his sister, one’s his girlfriend, Chen Yin couldn’t provoke either, hugging himself a little woefully, choosing to pick up Yiyi who had run to his side, pulling him into his arms: "Yiyi’s the best, let me hold Yiyi instead."

Yiyi: ... Uncle, can you let me go?

Everyone played around, the atmosphere remained harmonious. After lunch, Miao Miao was about to go upstairs to tidy up the room. Initially, Chen Yin wanted to follow, but he had accumulated quite a bit of official business, being pulled away one step at a time reluctantly by Rob.

In response, Miao Miao simply waved her hand at the doorway, agreeing to accompany Chen Yin to the Imperial Palace tomorrow, instantly brightening Chen Yin’s mood. From afar, you could hear him seemingly shouting something out of the hovercar’s window.

Then...

Du Xixi and others watched coldly, seeing Rob pat Chen Yin’s head with one hand, stuffing his head back inside after he stuck it halfway out of the hovercar, showing no mercy.

Everyone couldn’t help but laugh, feeling fortunate Chen Yin had created Rob as an assistant. With Rob urging him day and night at Chen Yin’s side, it sometimes indeed allowed Chen Yin to have a schedule, not delayed by anything.
