CHAPTER 197: CHAPTER 68: VARIETY SHOW ENDS, VISIT OF THE IRON-EATING BEAST_2

Moreover, to Du Xixi’s surprise, her original plan of "promoting cuisine" was not carried out because the villa did not have a finished kitchen. However, since she was pregnant, many viewers who had watched the "2X" livestream recalled 2X’s pregnancy belly and casually mentioned it in the chat.

When someone mentioned it, naturally, others would watch, and as soon as they did, they immediately decided to watch "We Are Husband and Wife" along with 2X’s previous livestream videos.

Du Xixi learned about this news on her way home, as numerous fans were persistently sending her private messages on her livestream channel.

Some were happy for her due to the increasing attention brought by "Marshal’s Wife"; others advised her to be cautious, fearing she might be accused of trying to gain popularity off it; and still, others encouraged her to take good care of her pregnancy, assuring her that she would definitely have a child as well-behaved as "the Marshal’s baby."

Seeing the flood of messages, Du Xixi couldn’t go through them carefully, so she skimmed through them briefly. Most of the private messages were blessings, which made Du Xixi feel quite comforted, even choosing to ignore the negative ones from some haters.

Anyway, a waste of effort and words from others, should she care? They’re unworthy!

Ke Lian was sitting beside Du Xixi and seeing her arrogantly skipping the negative comments without giving them a glance, he revealed a doting smile.

He liked watching Du Xixi show her little temper in front of him because it meant she considered him as her own, someone she could fully trust.

As for Sun Mulin... though he was watching Ke Lian and Du Xixi’s silent interaction intently through the rearview mirror, even though the hovercar was on autopilot, he believed he was driving earnestly.

When Sun Mulin dropped Du Xixi and Ke Lian off at the Ke Family residence, he didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he quite naturally parked the hovercar in the courtyard and followed them inside.

To Sun Mulin, the Ke Family home was like another family. The shoe cabinet held the slippers he wore a few days ago, and the largest cushion on the sofa had been used by Sun Mulin as a pillow for several naps.

But none of this was the real reason for Sun Mulin lying on the sofa; when night fell and 2569 skillfully served the meal, the shameless Sun Mulin flipped over from the sofa and headed to the dining table under the amused gazes of Du Xixi and Ke Lian.

As someone who spends most of the year rushing between appointments, Sun Mulin had long gotten used to staying wherever possible, having many brothers, and thus many brothers’ homes which, roughly speaking, meant he had many places to stay.

If he stayed at the Ke Family to rest, he didn’t have to, as Ke Lian might very well dislike him being a third wheel and chase him out at any moment. He could find another place to stay, and he had quite a few properties under his name.

But if he stayed for food, it surely wouldn’t be surprising behavior from Sun Mulin.

Unlike other family members who loved literature and immersed themselves in the sea of knowledge, Sun Mulin cherished freedom and enjoyed chasing after things he desired.

Like the entertainment circle, like the cuisine at the Ke Family.

For staying at the Ke Family for a meal, Ke Lian really admired this brother of his. Thus, as Ke Lian helped Du Xixi sit down, he rolled his eyes at Sun Mulin without reservation and said, "No one is greedier than you!"

"Who said there isn’t! Fengzi is even greedier than me!" Sun Mulin retorted, then quickly smiled ingratiatingly under Ke Lian’s cold gaze, "Haha, wasn’t I conquered by sister-in-law’s skills! Although sister-in-law doesn’t cook much now, 2569 was taught by sister-in-law. I love eating 2569’s cooking because sister-in-law is amazing, right?"

Du Xixi had no idea that the two brothers’ bantering could drag her into it, so she raised her eyebrows in surprise, turning to look at Sun Mulin sitting sloppily in the chair, "What did you say?"

Sun Mulin appeasingly waved at Du Xixi, while earlier, in an attempt to "defend" himself, he had unwittingly used his sister-in-law as a shield. But while he dared to spout nonsense to Ke Lian, he somehow dared not be evasive when facing Du Xixi.
