My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 553 - 187 The Old Father

Du Xixi and Sun Mulin were oblivious to the storm of attention they had on the Star Network. The afternoon sun was very warm, and Du Xixi, wrapped in a blanket, felt extrely comfortable, while Sun Mulin, having played in the sandbox for a long ti, felt that his outfit was hindering his movent, so he took off his jacket and continued playing in the sandbox wearing just a shirt.

The warm breeze brushed by as Du Xixi took a deep breath, but she was startled by a pair of hands suddenly wrapping around her from behind. Before she could cry out, she realized that the aura surrounding her was very familiar. A slight turn of her head confird it was indeed Ke Lian dressed in military attire, with a gentle expression.

"You’re back?" Du Xixi’s voice was so tender it could drip water. Hearing this familiar inquiry from his wife, Ke Lian nodded slightly, then sat down on the swing, pulling Du Xixi onto his lap, resting his head on her shoulder, and closing his eyes slightly without saying a word.

"Tired?" Du Xixi raised her hand to smooth Ke Lian’s slightly furrowed brow. "Sun Mulin will probably play for a while longer, why don’t you go in and rest for a bit?"

Living and eating with Ke Lian every day, Du Xixi naturally knew he seed to have sothing urgent to deal with lately. Although he never complained to her, she could clearly see his slightly weary expression today.

Her heart ached for Ke Lian.

"No need, sitting with you for a while is rest enough for ." Ke Lian shook his head with a light laugh. With Du Xixi, he always felt a soothing relaxation. "Besides, the whole network is abuzz because of you and Sun Mulin, saying it’s entirely like a mother with her son. As his father, shouldn’t I see how my family’s sandbox has been turned into a disaster?"

Usually, Ke Lian would feel a pang of jealousy when Du Xixi was with anyone else, but today, rushing ho after work, he saw the overwhelming news about Du Xixi and Sun Mulin on the Star Network. His heart was just about to tighten when the flood of "motherly love" s swept him away.

Now, looking at Sun Mulin nestled in the sandbox, he didn’t feel like he was seeing a "love rival" at all. It was totally like seeing a big, brainless son!

Thinking this, Ke Lian’s smile broadened, especially when Sun Mulin heard the commotion and looked over, waving at Ke Lian. Almost visibly, Ke Lian’s gaze beca more affectionate.

Sun Mulin: ...

Sohow, it all felt a bit odd.

Sun Mulin didn’t know what was strange about Ke Lian, but the livestream audience did. They were the only ones with a "God’s eye view" from the mont Ke Lian walked in.

[——Wow! This light embrace from behind, it’s perfect! Love it~

——Hehe, let see how wide everyone’s smiles are?

——Welco to this episode of "Idol’s Day," also known as "Daily Affection of the Imperial Marshal and Empress."

——Hahaha, I’m in stitches. When the adults cuddle together, Old Sun, who only knows how to dig and bury himself, looks even more silly.

——Did anyone notice! When he held his wife on his lap, he used one hand around her waist, and the other supporting her arm! Full of security!

...

——That look in his eyes, tsk...

——Is it just , or does that loving father’s gaze on his big son look exactly like how my dad looks at !

——Poor Old Sun, still standing in the sandbox, completely unaware that his position has dropped from a brother to a son!

...]

The sun was setting, and Sun Mulin finally erged from the sandbox. But it wasn’t because he had played enough, nor because he was tired, but because Ke Lian really couldn’t watch any longer and pulled him out from the deep sandbox.

Ke Lian looked at the pit-filled, completely unlevel sandbox with so disdain, clicked his tongue, then kicked the now steady-standing Sun Mulin and said speechlessly, "This sandbox was made for my Yiyi and Er Er, and they haven’t even played in it yet. You went ahead and experienced it for them."

"Hehe, isn’t it just too much fun?" Sun Mulin scratched his head sheepishly, covered from head to toe in sand, whether he scratched or not. "When I was a kid, as you know, there were no sandboxes to play in anywhere."

Sun Mulin was considered to have a very happy family life. His parents were both present, his family was thriving, and except for having no siblings, he had almost nothing to regret.
