My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 564 - 190: The Feeling of Liking Someone3

"Mm, then I must trouble you, miss." Miao Miao smiled, not really looking forward to seeing Chen Yin, but considering the feelings Chen Yin had invested in her, both emotionally and logically, Miao Miao felt she needed to give herself ti to have a thorough conversation with him.

No one knows what the future holds, but now... Miao Miao touched her chest, wondering if the heart hidden inside would beat for Chen Yin at this mont.

After saying goodbye to Miao Miao, Du Xixi returned to her office in high spirits. After ungracefully plopping herself onto the couch and wrapping herself in a large, soft, and light blanket, the slight chill from the breeze dissipated quickly, and she humd a little tuneless song with a rather smug feeling.

Look at that, as soon as she took charge, she secured a chance for Chen Yin to have a chat. Although Miao Miao showed no signs of being moved today, Du Xixi noticed with a keen eye that Miao Miao had clearly wavered more than before.

Not being able to completely persuade Miao Miao made Du Xixi feel a bit regretful, but knowing Miao Miao’s resolute character, even though she seed soft and frail on the outside, even Du Xixi found it difficult to change her mind. The fact that Miao Miao showed so signs of wavering was already a significant improvent.

Du Xixi opened her Light Computer, eager to share this good news with Chen Yin, but hesitated when choosing a video call, opting instead to open a chat box and send a teasing ssage to puff his curiosity.

"Du Xixi": Brother, I have good news to tell you. It’s related to Miao Miao, do you want to know?

Du Xixi wasn’t just teasing him to provoke interest; she considered that Chen Yin was a busy person, and if she called him out of the blue, she might disrupt his workflow. A ssage wouldn’t cause such trouble, and a gentle notification sound was far less disruptive than a continuous ringing.

On Chen Yin’s side, he didn’t seem busy as he replied to Du Xixi’s ssage almost instantly with one word.

"Chen Yin": Yes.

Du Xixi raised an eyebrow, thinking that perhaps her brother’s recent "retreat for contemplation" was helping him gradually let go of Miao Miao, trying not to be heartbroken over her again. Yet, when it ca to matters concerning Miao Miao, he couldn’t control himself.

Chen Yin then called for a video chat, and when Du Xixi opened it, she saw a haggard Chen Yin with disheveled hair on the screen, and behind him, piles of docunts ford small mountains, causing Du Xixi’s eyelids to twitch.

"Brother, are you so busy?" Du Xixi used to think that Chen Yin’s long stay in the Imperial Palace without stepping out was a way to numb his heart with work, not wanting to think of Miao Miao, but now it seed it might really be due to the increase in official duties?

Du Xixi blinked and saw that Chen Yin wiped his unkempt face. His voice was a bit hoarse: "No, these are tasks I asked Rob to find for , significantly more than my usual workload."

"You’re crazy!" Du Xixi was shocked. Chen Yin was already busy enough before; many people familiar with the Empire’s internal affairs worried about him being overworked to death. Yet, he actually added more to his workload.

Could it be that the emotional pain was so great that, as Your Majesty, he couldn’t end his life to avoid causing scandal for the Blue Star Empire, so he planned to work himself to death instead?

Your Majesty, being crushed by the heavy workload and fighting on the desk till his last breath wouldn’t be a good death for the Blue Star Empire, making it seem like being the ruler was a misery.

Chen Yin didn’t know the wild thoughts running through Du Xixi’s mind. He had just finished handling a pile of docunts, and this video chat with Du Xixi was a brief mont of rest. He leaned back casually and yawned, saying, "I keep myself busy so I won’t have the Kung Fu to think about Miao Miao."

Du Xixi was silent for a mont, seeing Chen Yin clearly on the verge of madness from thinking about Miao Miao yet actively trying not to think about her, she was at a loss whether to mock his foolishness or pity his infatuation.

She hesitated for a mont, then directly shared what was, to Chen Yin, good news: "Miao Miao said she wants to visit you this afternoon to have a chat, so I ca to ask if you’re available."

"Really!" There was a loud crash from the chair Chen Yin was sitting on. Du Xixi looked up to see Chen Yin, disheveled and being supported by Rob, as the chair he was leaning on had already fallen.

Chen Yin had been too excited and accidentally knocked over the chair while standing up, and he himself got tangled with the chair leg. If it weren’t for Rob’s quick reaction, the already exhausted Chen Yin might have directly fallen flat on his back on the ground.

Given how tired he was, even speaking was labored, and if he fell to the ground, he might need a while to gather himself before being able to get up on his own.
