My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 687 - 231 Courting Death_3

The reason was simple, Mo Feng was once again courting disaster himself.

He saw Du Xixi heading over to 2569 to start preparing breakfast. His eyes shifted as he thought of Ke Lian and the others still asleep inside, so he went in and coughed loudly, waking these officers who were actually about to get up anyway.

"What’s going on?" Chen Dan, who was sleeping closest to the cave entrance, was pretty close to Mo Feng, so the moment Mo Feng coughed, he woke up almost immediately. He jumped up and asked Mo Feng, "Is there any danger?"

The word "danger" triggered everyone, whether awake or groggy, to spring up from the ground. They instinctively placed their hands on the sheaths by their legs, ready to defend themselves and counterattack with their knives if any threat approached.

Ke Lian stood up first, reaching for his knife with one hand and trying to help Du Xixi with the other. Surprisingly, his hand reached into empty air. Looking down, he found that Du Xixi was nowhere to be seen!

Could it be that the so-called "danger" had already taken Du Xixi away!?

For a split second, Ke Lian panicked, wanting to rush out of the cave to look for Du Xixi. Just as he lifted his foot, Mo Feng spoke again, "There’s no danger; I’m just here to wake you up. The sister-in-law is already outside preparing breakfast."

Ke Lian’s steps halted, relieved to know that Du Xixi was okay, but he still found it a bit strange.

Everyone’s wake-up time was punctual; they usually got up at that time, and Du Xixi knew it. Even if she prepared breakfast, she would keep it warm and wait for everyone to wake up. Why did she have Mo Feng wake them today? Does this breakfast need to be eaten earlier?

Ke Lian intuitively felt that the truth of the matter wasn’t that, so he looked at Mo Feng with a stern face, trying to ask something more thoroughly when he sensed something off. Frowning, he asked Mo Feng, "Did you have Xixi heal you?"

Ke Lian had personally participated in the "beating Mo Feng" session last night, being the most disgusted by Mo Feng’s actions; he undoubtedly hit the hardest. The most pronounced bruise on Mo Feng’s face was left deliberately for him to personally "brand."

Despite hitting him hard last night, when they went to sleep, the injury wasn’t obvious; Mo Feng’s face was just a bit swollen. But Ke Lian had fought enough people to know the state bruises would show after a night’s sleep. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Even if Ke Lian’s experience was off, it shouldn’t look like he hadn’t been injured at all, should it? The people present couldn’t have taken out the portable version of the healing device from the Space Button. Du Xixi didn’t have a healing device, and according to 2569, though they brought extra supplies, 2569 didn’t bring a healing device.

After eliminating the possibilities, the only thing in this world capable of healing Mo Feng’s injuries was Du Xixi’s Purification Talent.

Perhaps Mo Feng was "playing the victim" outside and happened to be seen by Du Xixi, who went out to prepare breakfast. Du Xixi, being soft-hearted, couldn’t bear to see Mo Feng look so pitiful and used a Spiritual Light Group to heal his bruises.

Ke Lian thought for a few seconds and guessed the truth, but Mo Feng wasn’t really "playing the victim" outside; he was genuinely in pain and genuinely upset.

"How could I dare trouble sister-in-law? She saw I was injured and insisted on healing me herself." Mo Feng had been injured like this before; during training, getting a few hits from the instructor was common. Therefore, he couldn’t really be angry about the marks his brothers left on his face; he felt more depression and sadness.

Mo Feng truly didn’t know what he had done wrong.

The group felt a bit of regret; they originally wanted to see what Mo Feng would look like with a face full of bruises. But since Du Xixi had already healed Mo Feng, they could only let it go with some regrets. They all stretched and prepared to go out to wash up and enjoy the delicious breakfast Du Xixi made herself.

But Mo Feng wasn’t "willing" to let everyone forget about this matter so easily. The dim-witted Mo Feng stood at the cave’s entrance, bragging, "Well, I was just feeling a little uncomfortable, and who knew sister-in-law would heal me. And she used a special Spiritual Light Group for it, too!"

Although the Spiritual Light Group Du Xixi used on Mo Feng could only be about knuckle-sized, Mo Feng was there to boast. It’s better to bury those things that would make everyone laugh at him deep in his heart.

Everyone paused, first looking at Ke Lian and then at Mo Feng. They were curious about what weird things Mo Feng would say next—or perhaps what sarcastic things.

Mo Feng never disappointed in this regard. Seeing everyone was watching him, he felt like he had the audience’s anticipation, cleared his throat, and seriously said, "Hmm, I must have become even more handsome overnight; that’s why sister-in-law is biased towards me!"

Everyone: ...

Speechless!

Outside, Du Xixi was simmering some porridge. After opening the pot and sprinkling a little salt, she suddenly heard a scream coming from inside the cave.

Du Xixi paused her hand, a hint of amused laughter in the corner of her eyes.

Sigh, poor Mo Feng...
