I, Azure Commander!

"Uh-huh……!"

The little cutie Nuremberg also nodded, grabbed the corner of Peter Strasser's clothes and tugged gently to keep him.

Peter Strasser was a little conflicted. To be honest, if it wasn't for avoiding suspicion, she really didn't want to drive a long way home on a cold winter night.

It really doesn't matter, right?

She frowned, pursed her lips and thought, obviously a little shaken.

"Relax."

Heinrich patted her shoulder and said, "The commander won't attack you at night. He has so many wedding ships to accompany him. He can't defeat them all every time. He doesn't have that much energy to commit crimes..."

"No, what do you mean?"

Lin Xiao was speechless. If you want to keep him, just keep him. Why are you slandering your own commander?

Although it is true that he cannot win, you can't tell anyone about it!

Besides, even someone with his physique is no match for her, so he really doesn't believe that any commander can beat the KanColle.

"Hey, Commander, don't be angry..." Heinrich blinked and gave Lin Xiao a look that he couldn't understand.

"I'm not that angry."

Lin Xiao shrugged helplessly, "Forget it, let's not talk about it... Anyway, this matter is Peter's own decision, you guys shouldn't get involved too much, let him do whatever he wants."

"Good~"

Prince Heinrich stuck out her tongue playfully. She still listened to the commander's words and said nothing more. She just looked at Peter Strasser and acted cute with her eyes.

"Alright alright……"

Peter Strasser finally shook his head helplessly. "Then I'll listen to you. I'll stay if you want to. Just don't tell anyone by mistake..."

"Don't worry, it won't happen."

Lin Xiao shrugged. He could still guarantee this, and he obviously had no reason to do so.

Chapter 92: Because you can’t win?

"Oh, today is really tiring..."

At night, in the room, Lin Xiao, who had just finished taking a shower, was lying on the bed and said with some emotion.

"Commander, are you tired?"

At the side, Tianying, who was blowing his hair with a hair dryer, asked with concern.

"A little bit, mainly because I have to take care of children all the time. To be honest, taking care of children is not a job for humans, and there are so many children. Although they are all very cute, they are still naughty kids at this age. It's a headache when they get naughty."

"Ha ha……"

Tianying smiled softly, "Commander still likes children as always. What's that called... Lolita control?"

Lin Xiao did not refute, but admitted it openly, "What's wrong with lolita control? Aren't lolis meant to be controlled? Controlling means cherishing and protecting! It's aboveboard and I have a clear conscience. I'm doing good things."

"Okay, okay~" Tianying did not refute him, but just looked at Lin Xiao with a doting and warm gaze, making Lin Xiao feel that he was also treated as a child.

"So tonight, Commander, would you like to rest early?"

Although it was a question, the tentative meaning was already quite obvious. Because of his previous trip to Sakura Empire, Tianying had not spent a good night with the Commander for a long time.

Not to mention that even when the Commander was in the port, because she was not proactive enough and was not particularly liked by the Commander like Noshiro, there were not many nights that Sky Eagle could sleep with the Commander.

As the saying goes, a long absence is better than a new marriage. Tianying really missed the commander a little after not seeing him for a long time, mixed with longing and a slight desire.

"Well..."

After hearing this, Lin Xiao fell into hesitation. It didn't seem like a question that needed to be thought about, but he really had to think about it carefully now.

Because he is really tired today, his performance will probably be affected to a certain extent in this state.

"How about we rest early today?"

So he said tentatively.

Tianying's expression obviously became a little gloomy and a little lost. She didn't want to miss this opportunity after all the hard work. However, if the commander himself really didn't want to do so, she couldn't force him.

After thinking about it carefully, I was unwilling to give up just like that, so I mustered up all my courage and used the method of provoking him: "Because you can't beat him?"

Lin Xiao turned around in surprise and looked at this girl who was always gentle and generous. He didn't expect that Tianying would tease him like this...

Although it was a bit unexpected, since she said so, it would be really unreasonable for Lin Xiao to still give in.

"Whether you can beat him or not, we have to try to find out, right?"

Tianying smiled, let down his hair that he had originally planned to tie up, walked forward slowly, bent down, and looked at Lin Xiao who was lying on the bed.

"Then... please start proving yourself, my dear commander."

Things had come to this point, how could Lin Xiao bear it any longer? He immediately stood up, pulled Tianying into his arms, leaned over and shut her chattering mouth. What followed was, of course, a night of love in the warm hibiscus tent.

The long-lost Sky Eagle was particularly enthusiastic, and Lin Xiao, who had been stubborn just now, soon couldn't stand it. He called the ship girl a completely foul creature and swore that he would never be fooled again.

Of course, that’s what he said, but he was the one who said it today. Tomorrow night…that’s another matter entirely.

Does what he says today have anything to do with who he will be tomorrow? No, so this makes perfect sense.

After a night, the next day is the official New Year.

Early in the morning, Tianying quietly slipped away from Lin Xiao's room. Sure enough, not long after she left, the children at home couldn't help but knock on the commander's door.

"Commander, Commander... red envelopes are being distributed!"

"Commander, I want a red envelope."

"I want it too, I want it too..."

"I want a red envelope with candy..."

"Then it's not called a red envelope. I already said this isn't Halloween."

"But I want to eat candy~"

"You can use the money to buy candy. You can buy a lot of it!"

"So many, so many, how much is it..."

Craven, who was obviously not very smart, counted on her fingers, trying to figure it out. Her grades were the worst among her friends, especially math, which she could not figure out no matter how hard she tried.

"That depends on how much money the commander gives..."

The noisy sound quickly woke Lin Xiao up from his sleep, although he had not slept for long. If it was seven o'clock now, it would be almost two hours?

But considering his current physical condition, this is enough.

Even though the child knocked on the door again and again, Lin Xiao still didn't want to get up. He stayed in bed for a long time before he stretched and sat up.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Tiancheng's scolding from outside: "Didn't I tell you? You can't knock on the master's door in the morning!"

Should we say that this is indeed the Heavenly City? Even during the New Year, they are not willing to relax at all...

Maybe it was because it was the first day of the new year and he knew the children would come, so he came over to help Lin Xiao out?

No matter what, I did get up and give red envelopes to the children at home.

Lin Xiao stood up and took out the red envelopes that he had prepared earlier from the drawer. Every child received the same red envelope, so he had to be fair to everyone in this regard.

Of course, although the port area is not short of money now, there is no need to give so much money to the children. One hundred Donghuang coins per person is not a lot, but it is a huge sum of money for the children, enough to buy hundreds of lollipops.

What does it mean to have hundreds of lollipops? You can’t finish them even if you eat them for a week or ten days. For children, that is the ultimate happiness.

Lin Xiao simply washed his face, brushed his teeth, hurriedly placed the cup on the sink, and rushed to the door and opened it.

At this time, Tiancheng was still reprimanding the children. A group of little girls lowered their heads, stood in line and listened to Sister Tiancheng's scolding.

In this family, there is no child who is not afraid of Tiancheng. They are afraid and respect her, respect and fear her. The children will listen to whatever Sister Tiancheng says. If Sister Tiancheng says not to do something... they will never do it in front of her.

Of course, this is only true when in front of her.

Children are obedient and listen with one ear and out the other. They listen carefully at first and make promises, but then turn around and play for a while and forget everything. Take what happened this morning for example... Tiancheng has reminded them more than once not to knock on the commander's door in the morning, because even if they knocked, the commander would not open it.

Isn't that right? There are usually more than one person inside at this time. If the door is opened and someone comes out, the children will start to spread rumors, and the rumors will become more and more outrageous. If there is any misunderstanding in the end, it will be troublesome again...

Chapter 93: Tricking Little Lolita into Kissing

"What are you arguing about so early in the morning?"

Just when the children were lowering their heads with depressed expressions, Lin Xiao finally finished washing up, pushed open the door, and appeared as a hero.

"It's the Commander!"

I don't know which naughty kid cheered, and then no one listened to what Tiancheng said anymore. All the little girls' attention was immediately attracted by their favorite commander.

"..."

Tiancheng was speechless for a moment, and was also surprised that Lin Xiao would just push the door open like that. He glanced inside the door, and it didn't seem like there was anyone else there.

So that's how it is. He left early in the morning?

Of course Amagi would not think that no one was in the commander's room last night. He had been out for such a long time and had only returned a few days ago. Those who had already taken over the marriage ships would definitely not let him go. In fact, Amagi often saw the people from the St. Louis Skyhawk, who pulled Noshiro Helena and the others to discuss "scheduling" matters. Of course, Sirius could not be called. That stupid maid only had the master in her mind. She would say whatever the master asked, and she would definitely let the cat out of the bag if she was told.

In fact, they had also come to Tiancheng, after all, Tiancheng was also a wedding ship, but Tiancheng had not yet been in power, and had not found a suitable opportunity to discuss this matter with the master, so after careful consideration, he politely declined them and did not get involved.

I don't know who it was last night... The day before yesterday it seemed to be Noshiro, so last night it should be Tianying? Or maybe it was Sirius's stupid maid who got there first. As long as she was not rejected when she asked for service that day, it was basically her turn.

Although Tiancheng shouldn't care about these things, he still can't help but care about them occasionally. When he thinks about it carefully, maybe his heart is also restless?

Although this was not a mistake, Tiancheng, who always had high expectations of others and even higher expectations of himself, always felt that such things should not be actively asked for. If the master needed something, as a subordinate, he should offer everything. However, if the master did not ask, no one on the other side could be sure of his intention. If he acted rashly, he might offend someone...

The previous example of Akagi and Kaga is a lesson for us. The lord is kind-hearted and does not pursue the matter, but this cannot be an excuse for his subordinates to continue making mistakes.

Since the master was not disturbed and would not be troubled, Tiancheng naturally nodded, bowed slightly and left.

Lin Xiao exchanged grateful looks with the reliable and intelligent big fox, then he showed a gentle smile and looked at the children in front of him. He picked up a little girl who raised her hands and came to him. At first glance, it was his little wife Xuefeng.

Master Xuefeng's face was flushed at this time, and his cute ears were shaking slightly. Lin Xiao deliberately acted mischievously, opened his "bloody mouth" and pretended to eat Master Xuefeng's ears in one bite.

"Ouch! Commander is so dirty!"

Xuefeng immediately stretched out her little hand with a look of disgust, pushing away the big face that was so close, but how could the little girl in her arms resist the commander's power? Lin Xiao finally held Xuefeng's little ear in his mouth and exhaled. Master Xuefeng trembled all over and exclaimed "Ah--" with watery eyes. His tail was wrapped around Lin Xiao's arm, and he curled up into a ball, lying in Lin Xiao's arms and unable to get up.

Mr. Yukikaze is so cute!

If there weren't so many children present and he couldn't be too partial to one over the other, Lin Xiao really wanted to pet this cute white-haired kitten.

Sure enough, a little girl nearby immediately showed an envious look, biting her fingers as she looked at Xuefeng who was held in Lin Xiao's arms. She looked so eager that she almost said directly that she also wanted to be hugged by the commander.

There were so many little lolis, it was impossible to hug them all at once, so Lin Xiao could only put Prince Snow down and pat her head.

"Commander... Commander, where is the red envelope?"

The little Lolita, who was more concerned about the red envelope, finally couldn't help but ask.

"Red envelope?" Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows and pretended to be ignorant.

"Yes, yes, the commander said he would give us red envelopes!"

"That's right, Commander, you won't forget the red envelope, right?"

"So bad~"

"That's what I mean. Commander, you lied to a kid. How lame~"

Such precise sarcasm naturally came from the two sisters, the Thunder and Lightning. As the sarcasm officers of the port area, they would occasionally sarcastically criticize the Commander. However, the two sisters, Red and Blue, were really cute and good kids at heart. The Commander certainly didn't care about this little thing. He rubbed the sisters' hair and said, "As for the red envelopes, of course there are."

"Great!"

"The Commander is the best. I love him the most!"

"You can buy some candy now..."

"I want to buy potato chips, the biggest bag, which is more than enough for several people to finish."

Seeing the little girls cheering, Lin showed a "sinister" smile on his face, and then changed the subject -

"Of course there are red envelopes, but haven't you heard other sisters tell you that red envelopes are not something you can get for free?"

The little girls looked at each other, and finally the honest Hatsuharu raised her hand and said honestly, "Well... I heard from Noshiro-sister that you have to say New Year's greetings before receiving red envelopes during the Spring Festival."

"Happy New Year? How do I do that?..."

This confused the children again. It seemed like this was the first time they spent the Spring Festival together.

Although the commander was from Donghuang, he never seemed to celebrate the holidays with them before. Well... he seemed to buy clothes occasionally, but only some of the ship girls had them. He would also decorate the dormitory a little bit. They all knew that it was the Spring Festival, but that was all.

Even though it was a holiday, the commander stayed in the office the whole day and refused to come out, let alone take them out to play or give them red envelopes.
