My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 667 - 225: Departure, Husband and Wife Reunion

Du Xixi’s words carried too much weight. Chen Yin and the others wanted to keep persuading but couldn’t find a reason strong enough to counter them. In the end, Chen Yin compromised, saying: "We still have a few days. Let’s search nationwide, and if we don’t find anyone, then we’ll let you go."

Chen Yin, after all, was reluctant to let Du Xixi go on this adventure. This temporary compromise was just an excuse. They could definitely make more efforts in the coming days, maybe find another more suitable candidate, or perhaps... Chen Yin gritted his teeth, temporarily train someone for the role, it was worth a try.

But after this moment’s excuse, seven days later, when the candidate had to be finalized, Chen Yin and the others suddenly realized that only Du Xixi was left for them to choose.

The military personnel had excellent skills and qualities, and Chen Yin and the others found several soldiers with better skills than Du Xixi, but all their talents seemed to be focused on their constitution, and like Ke Lian, culinary talent was extremely scarce.

There was no other way, so everyone gathered again in Du Xixi’s ward. In these few days, Du Xixi recovered astonishingly fast, her body and constitution not only returned to peak condition but she even anticipated and prepared a series of injections to solve her breastfeeding issues.

When Chen Yin and the Minister of the Military stopped trying to speak, Du Xixi laughed and said, "I’m ready to set off anytime."

"Xixi, are you sure?" Chen Yin took a deep breath. Even with the arrow on the string, he hadn’t fully decided to let Du Xixi, this "arrow," go. Time travel indeed carried tremendous risks; whether Ke Lian and Du Xixi can come back was almost fifty-fifty chance, all depending on fate.

Du Xixi slightly lowered her eyes, gently stroking the little head of Sansi in her arms. This child hadn’t even been born for half a month, but in a few days’ time, she would leave him, and possibly... leave him forever.

"If I don’t come back, I’m relying on you to take care of the children." Du Xixi sighed softly, but the smile on her face didn’t fade in the least. After a long time, under everyone’s somewhat heavy gaze, Du Xixi sent a gigantic file stored in her Light Computer for several days to Chen Yin.

Du Xixi whispered, "These are all the recipes I could remember, along with some experiences and small tips. Brother, help me spread them."

Du Xixi rubbed her thumb over the knuckle of her index finger. If possible, she truly hoped to personally pass on these experiences to everyone. But facing such a life-threatening journey, where odds of survival were slim, even with confidence, Du Xixi could only leave these things behind.

At the very least, she couldn’t let the hope for Blue Star’s culinary revival, which was so hard to regain, vanish after her departure.

"Xixi..."

Chen Yin looked at Du Xixi, his sister who had always been stubborn. Though usually appearing gentle and weak, once she made up her mind, she wouldn’t listen to anyone’s persuasion.

Chen Yin struggled internally for a long time, but he knew he could not hold Du Xixi back. So despite his reluctance, all he could do now was lightly pat Du Xixi’s head, affectionately promising as he used to: "Xixi, I promise you, even if you and Ke Xing don’t come back, Yiyi, Sansi, and the others will be like my own children. No matter what happens in the future, I won’t let them be harmed."

"I make this promise to you in my capacity as Blue Star Empire’s Your Majesty!" This was the most precious promise Chen Yin had made in his life, and he meant it from the heart.

Du Xixi smiled slightly, feeling somewhat more relieved about her future. Chen Yin’s promise undoubtedly laid a heavy stone down in her heart.

When it came to who she trusted most, besides Ke Lian, it might be Chen Yin. Although she also trusted Miao Miao and Ke Xing, Chen Yin was special to her, he was the brother she had relied on heavily since her time on Blue Star...

Opening a temporary portal required a large amount of energy. Thankfully, the relationship between the Iron-eating Beast Empire and Blue Star Empire was good. Upon hearing this news, Iron-eating Beast Empire immediately found several Energy Stone Veins for Blue Star Empire, more than enough to support the opening of the temporary portal.

However, the energy depletion took time, and after one opening, the next would require at least ten days of waiting. Therefore, if Du Xixi went to that world, she had to stay there with Ke Lian for at least ten days.
