My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 511 - 173: Rivals in Love Meet

"Chen Yin": Xixi, where are you?

Du Xixi smiled slightly, feeling that her plan had succeeded, but her words remained calm, as if she was not influenced by Chen Yin’s excitent.

"Du Xixi": I’m at Blue Star University, brother, why are you so excited?

"Du Xixi": You agree I have a good eye, right? Handso guys and beautiful girls, they’re the easiest to make people fantasize about.

Du Xixi looked up just as Miao Miao and Sun Mulin swapped positions, allowing her to better introduce political economics. Du Xixi quickly took another photo.

In the photo, Sun Mulin and Miao Miao brushed past each other, with the wind lifting Miao Miao’s long hair, brushing across Sun Mulin’s profile. They inadvertently exchanged glances, making even the wind seem gentle.

Ah yes, another perfect misdirected shot.

Click, send.

"Chen Yin": Xixi!

"Du Xixi": No need to thank , it’s just a small favor.

Du Xixi sent her final ssage, decisively shutting off her Light Computer, while Chen Yin, clearly lacking Du Xixi’s calmness, kept sending her ssages, causing the sound-muted Light Computer to buzz nonstop.

Du Xixi smiled slightly, she didn’t have to guess to know that Chen Yin was certainly "complaining" about how Sun Mulin and Miao Miao don’t match, they’re standing too close, Miao Miao is too young...

Although Chen Yin hadn’t experienced this before, so Du Xixi had no real-world evidence for reference, she knew Chen Yin well enough to accurately predict what he would say and do.

If things go as expected, Chen Yin will visit the Ke Family today to et Sun Mulin, this "rival in love."

As expected, when Sun Mulin’s nearly eight-hour promotional live broadcast ended, Du Xixi and Sun Mulin said goodbye to Miao Miao and returned to the Ke Family, where they found Chen Yin standing in the yard, hands on his hips, looking up at the sky with a worried expression.

"Xixi..." Chen Yin turned his head gloomily, offering a pale smile to Du Xixi and Sun Mulin as they walked through the door, his gaze gradually shifting to Sun Mulin, "This must be Mr. Sun Mulin? Quite handso indeed."

Du Xixi: ...

Sun Mulin: ...

Sorry, I’m suddenly feeling a bit creepy.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Despite his usual laid-back deanor, Sun Mulin showed respect to the unfamiliar Empire’s Your Majesty, standing upright and bowing slightly, "Thank you for the complint, Your Majesty."

Chen Yin grinned, though his smile did not reach his eyes: "No need to be polite."

Du Xixi blinked and offered a sympathetic glance at Sun Mulin, who was being targeted by Chen Yin. She slightly twisted her loose long sleeves that had crept up and said, "I’m going in first."

"Then I..." Sun Mulin, here today purely for a free al, naturally intended to follow Du Xixi inside. But just as he uttered three words, he was stopped by the "friendly" Chen Yin.

Chen Yin wore a broad smile and spoke warmly: "No rush, Mr. Sun. We’ve crossed paths a few tis before but never had the chance to chat. The weather is nice today, why don’t we take a walk in the garden together?"

Chen Yin would occasionally visit the Ke Family to find Du Xixi, and Sun Mulin would sotis co for food and drink, so they had seen each other a few tis. But with different personalities and statuses, even though both were easygoing, neither took the initiative to start a conversation, so naturally they weren’t familiar.

Today, Chen Yin was so "enthusiastic" toward Sun Mulin, but Sun Mulin didn’t feel flattered. Instead, he felt sothing was odd, especially noticing Du Xixi’s quick steps leaving, which gave him a sense of... schadenfreude?

Unable to refuse, Sun Mulin could only nod and start strolling and chatting in the vast garden with Chen Yin, but... why did the conversation topics keep getting stranger?

"I heard you’re in the entertainnt industry? Lots of fans, right?"

"Well... just call by my na." Sun Mulin usually played around, but he unconsciously restrained himself with Chen Yin around, looking sowhat uneasily at the flowers beside him, "I have a decent number of fans, mostly accumulated over ti since I’ve been active for a while."

That was Sun Mulin being modest. A newly debuted, all-star famous actor, how could the number of fans be "decent"? Chen Yin, having investigated Sun Mulin’s background beforehand, didn’t believe it at all, internally scoffing while remaining more courteous outwardly: "There are many beautiful actresses in the entertainnt circle, hasn’t Mr. Sun found a beauty that caught your eye?"
