CHAPTER 328: CHAPTER 112: UNSTOPPABLE TEARS FLOWING FROM THE CORNER OF THE MOUTH

"Oh? My sister is still thinking about me after all." Chen Yin’s previously low spirits lifted. He raised his eyebrows, thinking it’s alright if Ke Lian isn’t with him, at least the wife he cares about has him in her heart!

The Rob ship capturing Chen Yin’s smug expression: ...Sir, aren’t you afraid Marshal might beat you to death for this?

All the Majesties nearby eavesdropping: ...What’s this, vying for favor with his brother-in-law?

All the viewers watching this scene through the live broadcast: Hmm, His Majesty Chen Yin’s foolishness has finally been exposed to the entire interstellar community.

Chen Yin didn’t care whether his persona could be maintained or not. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he opened the tightly packaged box, revealing over a dozen neatly arranged pieces of ’rolling donkey’ to everyone.

"It’s ’rolling donkey’!" Others might not recognize it, but Chen Yin was very familiar with it. His eyes shone as he thought everything lonely and lonesome could never compare to this box of ’rolling donkey’ Du Xixi sent through 2569. "Xixi’s ’rolling donkey’ is the most authentic; she really put in some effort back then!"

Chen Yin witnessed Du Xixi’s growth on Blue Star, knowing the effort she put into every dish. Back when Du Xixi perfected this ’rolling donkey’, Chen Yin was traveling globally on a pretext, but Du Xixi still managed to get his address and sent freshly made ’rolling donkey’ for him to eat.

He still remembers that under the starry night, tired from being chased by a pack of hounds, he finally shook them off and sat down on the grass, pulling out the ’rolling donkey’ he had traveled far to retrieve from the town.

The now cold ’rolling donkey’, even after the journey, remained intact. Taking a bite, the sweetness of the bean paste combined with the chewy glutinous rice dough made Chen Yin feel that all his fatigue had been blown away by the fresh breeze.

That was the best ’rolling donkey’ Chen Yin ever had. Even though every subsequent ’rolling donkey’ made by Du Xixi was delicious enough to make him salivate, the taste in his memory was the most delicious.

He put on the disposable gloves handed over by Rob, and without concern for his image, he picked up a piece of ’rolling donkey’ and started eating. The familiar taste and texture made his nose tingle, but he held it back, showing a nostalgic smile as he continued to eat.

What he was eating was a symbol of Du Xixi’s care for him, and a beautiful memory of his time on Blue Star.

Many Majesties on-site secretly followed Chen Yin with their eyes, initially thinking that his behavior was inappropriate for the interstellar court’s atmosphere, so they mocked his upbringing from a distance.

But little did they know, those ’rolling donkey’ Chen Yin was eating were truly delicious. The sweet fragrance of red beans combined with the tempting color of soybean flour made those with good senses of smell and sight almost drool while mocking him.

But having already mocked him so much, not to mention that Chen Yin himself might hear, all those live stream viewers were watching too. If anyone couldn’t resist and went to ask for a taste of the ’rolling donkey’, wouldn’t that be a slap in the face? And it would be them slapping themselves, no less.

So it formed a stalemate on the scene—on one side, Chen Yin was happily enjoying the thoughtful gift from his sister, on the other side, everyone was enviously watching Chen Yin, wishing they could snatch the ’rolling donkey’ from his mouth and hands, and gobble it down.

The one who broke the deadlock first was the Chief Judge who had just returned from a break and had a fairly good relationship with Chen Yin. Acting as if he hadn’t noticed the awkward situation, he walked over with a smile and curiously asked, "Your Majesty Chen Yin, what is this? I don’t think I’ve ever seen it before."

"This is called ’rolling donkey’!" Chen Yin felt some goodwill towards the fair Chief Judge in front of him, and seeing him staring intently at the ’rolling donkey’, he smiled as he handed over a piece, "You should try it too. It was sent by my sister, thinking I’d be bored sitting here alone!"

The Chief Judge gave Chen Yin a meaningful glance and then took it smoothly, eagerly putting it into his mouth.

What Chen Yin said just now wasn’t simple at all. On the surface, it seemed like he was showing off Du Xixi’s care, but secretly, he was mocking the Majesties for deliberately isolating him. Clearly, such isolation behavior, in Chen Yin’s eyes, seemed extremely childish.

However, the Chief Judge didn’t intend to get involved in these grand battles between empires. The reason why the interstellar court hosts the grand conventions is naturally because the interstellar court is fair enough, with judgments based solely on the Interstellar Code.
