KanColle does not allow me to work from nine to five

"So." Mikasa felt something. She raised her head and looked at Liu Cheng intently. "If my attitude towards you changes, will you treat me the same way you treat Hiei?"

Mikasa's eyes and tone were filled with an indescribable tenderness, which was the softening of her emotions. If he said something touching at this time, it would probably turn Mikasa into a soft and gentle woman. However, Liu Cheng still said truthfully: "It's hard to say. The first impression is very important. I guess I still can't help but make fun of you."

"..."

Mikasa's heart, which was originally rippled like water, twitched for a moment, and her emotions were complicated and difficult to describe, but in the end, she smiled with relief, "Then isn't this completely illogical?"

"That's right. There's no such thing as so much logic in human interactions."

Liu Cheng smiled and said frankly, "What I hope now is that you can immediately agree with my ideas, become a member of my fleet, and return to the unity of Azur Lane. If it is really logical, I should stick to it no matter how cold my butt is. Otherwise, I will be a domineering president. Those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish."

Mikasa also opened her heart and said: "If you are so utilitarian, then I will look down on you."

"So you think highly of me when I make fun of you, right? Then I will step up my game in the future."

Mikasa did not answer, but stretched out her right hand on the chessboard, clenched her slender white fingers, and blue veins could be seen on the white back of her hand.

Liu Cheng also stretched out his right hand and clenched his fist, pretending not to understand and asked, "Do you want to swear by fists? Is this a deal?"

"It's a strong fist that can make your nose bleed with one punch."

"Then I can only ask the enterprise to come to protect me."

The two said so, but smiled at each other, and gently bumped their fists. It was because of their open hearts that they understood each other better at this moment. Sincerity is always the best killer move.

Mikasa suppressed her smile, suddenly lowered her right hand and patted the chessboard, and asked seriously: "Then the question is, do you have any intentions towards Hiei and Azuma?"

"..."

Liu Cheng has always been a man of courageous character, but at this moment he was unusually conflicted. After glancing at the pretty faces of Hiei and Agatsuma, he still spoke truthfully.

"Have."

Chapter 141: Once you meet the commander, you will be ruined for life

"No, you've led me into a trap. You can't use the word 'attempt'."

Liu Cheng thought of the problem and quickly clarified, "A gentleman loves a beautiful lady. Hiei is gentle and beautiful, and my wife is a kind lady. You two are simply the ideal Yamato Nadeshiko. You can treat me, your opponent, gently. I think it is impossible for anyone not to have a good impression of you, right?"

"So, I can't use the word 'intention'. I should say that I want to become friends with the two ladies. I don't want to offend them. Even if I can't go further, at least I don't want them to hate me as a playboy who flirts with others."

"Of course not."

My wife couldn't help but say it out loud. She lowered her head shyly, then raised it bravely, her beautiful eyes full of tenderness and determination. "It is my wife's honor to be able to make friends with someone like Mr. Liu Cheng."

"It's the same for me." Hiei pursed his lips with a gentle smile on his face, "I did something so offensive, but you were still tolerant of me. In fact, I also like to get along with you."

"Azuma...Hiei..."

Liu Cheng read the names of the two ship girls, looking at their gentle and charming faces. They were gentle, kind, and considerate, and now they firmly said what he thought in his heart. Such beauties, whether it was friendship or just temporary affection, were so heartwarming. They were much better than a certain stubborn, slightly tsundere, backward, old-fashioned, and whimsical ship girl. They formed a sharp contrast. However, such a ship girl is the leader of the Sakura Empire. God is really blind.

Thinking of this, Liu Cheng couldn't help but smile. He was actually influenced by Mikasa. Even his thoughts were teasing Mikasa. In a sense, this could be considered a deep love, right?

Hiei blinked and said, "So if you treat us as friends, you don't need to pay so much attention to us all the time. You can make fun of us occasionally. My wife and I won't mind."

Liu Cheng opened his mouth, but still shook his head and said, "I can't do it for now."

"Why, because you're not familiar enough?"

"Maybe. I always feel like it would be a bit abrupt for you guys."

Mikasa interrupted with some displeasure and said, "Aren't you afraid of offending me?"

Liu Cheng didn't argue at all, but said confidently: "I just offended you, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing. Just be careful. I might push you into the water when we go to the hot spring later."

"If you have the guts, press it. Then I will take off your towel in the water and see you naked. I will see if you will marry me if your innocence is gone."

"Then I will kill you and then myself."

"Kill me! Then both Musashi and Shinano will become widows and dig up your grave."

The two seemed to be talking more and more excessively, staring at each other in a very tit-for-tat manner, but the atmosphere only seemed to be silent for a moment, and Liu Cheng and Mikasa both leaned back and burst into laughter. The friendship between people is really amazing. Even though they have not known each other for a long time, they can already make such excessive jokes in tacit understanding without getting angry at the other person.

Agatsuma and Hiei have also become accustomed to such scenes. They smiled softly with their hands covering their lips, feeling that nothing they had experienced since they were born was as interesting as the past few days of getting along with each other.

The only one who was feeling uneasy was Suruga. The muscles on her face were twitching a little. She tried her best not to show any strange emotions, but in fact, her heart was already in turmoil.

What? What’s this strange atmosphere?

Aren't you going to have a trial soon that will affect the future of the Sakura Empire and the situation of the Ship Girls? How come you get along so well as if you've been friends for decades?

I can see that you are full of affection, Azuma. Hiei, you are being more than just kind, right?

And we're going to take a hot spring bath soon?

Taking the initiative to take a hot spring bath with a man, are you all crazy?

I actually attended such a party. I must be crazy...

Suruga was like a puppet, no longer showing any edge. He watched mechanically and confusedly as the four people gathered together to watch the video on Liu Cheng's mobile phone, and then they played Landlord. After Liu Cheng lost, Hiei drew several funny expressions on his face.

"Suruga, do you want ice cream or seitan?"

"I don't want it...ah, my wife, please give me a bowl of Qingbuliang."

Suruga drank the clear soup brought by Azuma, and watched Ryu Seung-won draw a little turtle on Hiei's face, while Hiei was smiling so happily. Suruga felt that he absolutely could not stay any longer, otherwise he would become abnormal, and he had to find a reason to leave.

"It's already four o'clock..."

Mikasa stretched herself lazily. Every time she was with Liu Cheng, she would feel that time passed so quickly. Before she knew it, an entire afternoon had passed. "Let's go, our afternoon's must-do, a hot spring bath. Let's go together."

"Okay." Liu Cheng stood up and said, "Remember to push me into the water. I'm waiting to pull your towel off and see you naked."

"It's a beautiful thought."

"Think about what happened."

"Okay, let you think about it. Anyway, we have more people from the Sakura Empire. There are three of us, no, four of us." Mikasa said deliberately, "Suruga, you come too, to strengthen our Sakura Empire."

"what?"

Suruga clenched her sleeves. She had just wanted to take the opportunity to say goodbye, but what should she do? She couldn't really take a bath with a man, right?

Then Suruga followed them anyway, mechanically taking off her clothes along with Azuma and the others, wrapping her fair body in a clean white bath towel.

"We'll go in quietly and go to the old place, all of us together."

Suruga listened to Mikasa's words and became even more frightened. There was actually some secret place. Was there a deeper secret that he hadn't seen? What if he was seen naked? If he didn't commit seppuku, he would probably have to submit...

However, when they actually arrived at the small bathing pool in the lush forest, nothing special happened. They were still chatting in a relaxed manner, and Liu Cheng was also very well behaved and motionless. He seemed to be very unscrupulous, but in fact, he was just taking a bath in the hot spring. Moreover, Junhe couldn't help thinking that Liu Cheng's upper body muscle lines were quite nice...

There's no need to scare yourself.

Mikasa said, "Ryu Cheng."

"Ok?"

"I was worried that I had asked Hiei and Azuma to take the test with you, so I might have harmed them by coming into contact with you." Mikasa drew ripples on the water with her slender hands, stretched her arms forward, and breathed a sigh of relief. "It seems that I haven't done that now."

Liu Cheng smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. Once you meet me, you will ruin your life."

Mikasa didn't refute, she just picked up a few drops of water and splashed them on Liu Cheng's face, and said: "Whether you brag or not, it's really fun to be with you."

"So should we let this happiness continue forever?

, and passed it on to every Sakura Empire shipgirl?"

Liu Cheng looked at Mikasa with burning eyes, and Mikasa's heart was actually very shaken.

"Let me think about it...let me think about it again."

Chapter 142: Hot springs and training camps are both regular events

They were already soaking in the hot spring in the same pool. Although they were still wearing towels to cover the most important parts, their white wrists were covered with frost and snow, and the snow-capped hills were rippling with water. They looked more charming than being naked, and there was actually no difference from being naked.

This is also the advantage that Liu Cheng accidentally encountered.

Normally, the shipgirls usually wear light clothes. The port area is full of shipgirls and there are no humans. Naturally, there is no risk of exposure. So when they suddenly see Liu Cheng, a human male, they rarely react to the shame of women. By the time the shipgirls react, they have already developed a good impression of Liu Cheng. At this time, they will feel shy at most when he looks at their fair skin, which is harmless.

This is both a blessing and sometimes a pressure for Liu Cheng.

For example, now Liu Cheng is facing away from Hiei, asking her to help rub his back. He just said that they want to be good friends, so it is natural for him to make some requests, and now Liu Cheng is doing so.

With his chin supported by his hands and placed on the bluestone beside the bathtub, Liu Cheng swayed back and forth with Hiei's movements. He was obviously not thinking about anything. He just heard the breathing of Mikasa and the others, and the ripples caused by Hiei's body hitting the liquid. Liu Cheng's mind automatically filled in Hiei's rosy face, and the plump peaks that kept submerging and protruding from the water with the movement of her body. The turbid water droplets fell along the white ravines, leaving a moving wet mark.

It was clearly just imagination, but it was more exciting than seeing it in real life, so Liu Cheng now held his gun against the wall, constantly distracting himself in an attempt to calm down.

"By the way, would good friends normally do this to each other?"

Mikasa pulled the upper edge of the bath towel, leaving a slight mark on her plump snow-white mound. In fact, it felt weird to take a bath wrapped in a bath towel, but it was even more impossible to pull it down. She also didn't want to leave Liu Cheng and go to another bath, so she had to do it this way.

Of course not for friends between a man and a woman. This is definitely beyond the concept of ordinary friends. However, Mikasa didn't ask clearly, so Liu Cheng gave a vague answer.

"Yes, when I was in military school, my roommate and I often rubbed each other's backs."

After Liu Cheng finished speaking, he heaved a sigh of relief. He still missed the days when he and a group of muscular men were in the bathroom taking showers and bragging. There were also relatively long and short reserved segments. Every time, Liu Cheng was able to hold his head high and be far ahead. From Donghuang to Sardinia, he was simply too excited to win...

Alas, those days are gone forever. There will no longer be muscular men playing tug-of-war in the bathroom. There are only stunning beauties by your side, and the wedding ship and the little maid’s wholehearted service. Such pure friendship will never exist again.

Thinking of this, Liu Chengqing couldn't help but laugh out loud with regret.

Mikasa threw a handful of water onto Ryu Seung's back, "What are you laughing at?"

"The back rub was very comfortable. Hiei put in a lot of effort. I thank her... and what's wrong with me laughing?"

"I feel like you have bad intentions."

"Prejudice." Liu Cheng paused, then said, "How about I rub your back, and you'll know what I said is true."

"Haha, you wish for it. Sure enough, you have bad intentions."

In the end, Liu Cheng did not help Mikasa wipe her back, but looking at Azuma sticking to Mikasa's back, with their fair skin touching each other, like spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, and delicate flowers reflected in the water, Liu Cheng even felt that it was more exciting than doing it himself. If he didn't distract himself, he would probably have a nosebleed in this bathtub sooner or later.

"Suruga."

"Hmm? Ahem... Your Excellency, what do you want me to do?"

Although Suruga was somewhat envious of the way her companions and Liu Cheng got along, she was just envious. Now Suruga decided to defend her principle of not attracting attention to the death. She hugged her knees silently, soaked the part below her neck in the water and never made a sound. However, if you don't take the initiative, you can't control others from taking the initiative.

"Would you like me to scrub your back?"

"This, this has nothing to do with me, it was Hiei who helped you..."

"What does it matter? It's fate that we met... I'm the commander of New Jersey. Just consider it as the medical expenses for the beating she gave you this morning."

"Then I don't want it. Thank you!"

Suruga hugged her knees and silently moved in the opposite direction. Although her pretty face was cold, the blush from the heat enveloped her delicate and fair face. She didn't look cold at all, but rather cute, sensible yet lonely.

"You are actually quite pretty. If you smile more, you will be no worse than my wife."

Suruga stared at the water, counting the ripples, and absolutely refused to respond to Liu Cheng's words.

Seeing Suruga's reaction, Liu Cheng said a little too much: "It's just a little flat, not as big as Musashi."

Suruga still didn't say anything, but he couldn't help but complain in his heart.

[Nonsense, if not being as great as Musashi-sama is considered equal, then there are many ship girls who are as equal as me. ]

"Are the horns on your head goat horns or cow horns?"

"It's much bigger than Mikasa and Hiei's horns."

"It's so crooked, will it bump into my face every day when I wash it?"

"When you dry your hair, will you..."

"Mr. Liu Cheng!" Junhe finally couldn't stand Liu Cheng's bombardment of questions and burst out, "This side also

I'm not the only ship girl here. Senior Mikasa is a fleet leader like you, and Hiei and Azuma are gentle ladies who always respond to requests. You can go find them. Why do you always ask me questions? What good can you get from adding trouble to me like this? ! Really!"

After venting all his unhappiness, Suruga realized why he was so impulsive again. Not only Liu Cheng, but also Mikasa and the others were blinking and looking at him, making him even more eye-catching.

[Wow! Why am I… I really want to bury my head in the water… I really want to bury myself… I really want to commit seppuku…]

"Sorry, I was abrupt." Liu Cheng said, "But let's be honest, isn't it good to be straightforward like this? You are not a dull person."

"You don't know me, why are you talking to yourself..."

Suruga retracted his neck into the water, half of his cherry lips touched the hot water, and a few bubbles came out.

Liu Cheng smiled and said, "I don't really understand, but guess why Mikasa didn't say anything just now?"

"Well……"

Suruga looked in the direction of Mikasa, and indeed saw the smile of this senior. She said, "I always thought you were too serious, Suruga, and you couldn't let go at all. Although Liu Cheng is frivolous, he is really good at understanding people's hearts. I also hope you can enjoy this time."
