I, Azure Commander!

Hao's voice was obviously filled with surprise, but he calmed down a little and said suspiciously: "But why do I feel like the commander is fooling me?"

The girl blinked in distress. "Just like George V's sister said, I'm easy to fool. The commander will believe me if I tell him so easily..."

"how could be?"

Lin Xiao looked at her with a mixture of laughter and tears, "Don't think too much. In fact, I have always liked you... When you started making cookies for me every day, I was very moved. It's just that I feel that it's not good to develop too fast. I think we should give each other more time to spend together, so... In short, I can assure you that Little Biscuit is definitely my favorite ship girl!"

"Most...most favorite?"

Hao was frightened for a moment, his expression gradually changed to surprise, and it took him a long time to react. He curled his lips and asked again: "Then who can replace me, Commander?"

"Um... She's also my favorite ship girl."

"Where's Skyhawk? Where's Sirius? And where's St. Louis and Helena?"

"Well... everyone is my favorite ship girl, there's nothing wrong with that, right?"

"Humph~"

Hao snorted coquettishly and rolled his eyes at him. Although he knew it was just sweet talk, he could still sense some sincerity in his words. He was obviously not as worried as before.

"stare--"

However, the two people who were showing off their affection had obviously forgotten about a certain cat-headed spectator beside them. Cheshire looked like an iconic emoticon at this moment, with a roaring cat-like look on his face. It was not very intimidating, but it made Lin Xiao laugh out loud...

Chapter 21: Chicken Soup is Here

After comforting Hao for a long time, Lin Xiao almost forgot that there was a cat next to him. Looking at Cheshire's expression that could be called an emoticon, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Such a cat naturally looks a little pitiful, but unlike Hao, this cat does not have so many worries or complicated thoughts, it just simply wants to be close to the commander.

So even if Lin Xiao wanted to comfort the cat a little, he didn't know how to start for a moment, so he simply rubbed the cat's hair. The cat, who was easily fooled, immediately tilted its neck, squinted its eyes, and showed a happy expression.

"Commander, the food is almost ready. We have a private restaurant specially built for this event. Come and eat."

After calming the cat down, Tianying knocked on the door and walked in. Lin Xiao nodded, then led the ship girls in the office and followed Tianying to the restaurant.

It seems that this floor was designed as a private residence. The private dining room is very large and has a long white dining table. It looks like a European mansion. The overall layout of this floor is also relatively gorgeous, and there are many rooms, which are very suitable for living.

It seems that the accommodation arrangements mentioned earlier probably refer to this place.

After Skyhawk sat down on the main seat, Sirius immediately stood by and carefully served him tea.

As for why she was so cautious? She actually wanted to help in the kitchen, but she broke several plates soon after entering. Then, she was dragged out by Sheffield, who looked disgusted, while apologizing.

The clumsy maid was very distressed by this, but it seemed like this was her nature. No matter how serious and careful she was, she would always fail to consider many aspects when doing things and would easily mess things up.

The clumsy maid obviously would not tell her master such an embarrassing thing, otherwise Lin Xiao would have to comfort her again. After all, this kind of "character setting"-like characteristics is really unreasonable. It is the same in real life. Some people are careful, while others are careless. This is not a fact that can be changed by the latter being careful when doing things.

Although carelessness would make a maid seem a little unqualified, Lin Xiao obviously doesn't care about these things. After all, although she is a maid, Sirius is also his wife and girlfriend in his heart. From this perspective, sometimes such a personality will appear more adorable.

Of course, it would be better if she could change her problem of speaking too bluntly...

It didn't take long to wait. Less than three minutes after Lin Xiao sat down, the ship girls began to bring steaming hot dishes to this side one after another.

The first person that caught my eye was Haiqi. This cute little girl carefully carried two plates of food on each side of the table and placed them on the table. She finally breathed a sigh of relief and seemed to notice that the commander was looking at her. She greeted him energetically and shyly, then turned around and trotted back to the kitchen.

A very cute child, and also the first Donghuang child Lin Xiao met since coming to this world.

If you think about it carefully, Donghuang actually has more children. Not to mention the Four King Kongs, Shuanghai is also a little loli. Yingrui and Zhaohe can be considered girls, and Haiqi is also a child...

This may be due to some historical reasons. Lin Xiao actually wants to meet these Donghuang children. After all, both Shuanghai and Yixian are quite cute. There are also the Four King Kongs, the strict and serious Anshan, the timid and weird Changchun, the energetic and occasionally mischievous Fushun, and the timid and quiet little sister Taiyuan.

Each one of them is super cute. I really want to hold them in my arms and rub them. Looking at their rosy little faces, my heart must be full of happiness.

As for Zhaohe and sister Yingrui... ahem, those two are wives, the shy and impatient eldest wife Zhaohe, and the super cute, gentle but a little bit scheming younger wife Yingrui.

Imagine two girls with ancient style standing by your side, one on each side, like ancient maids, or sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at you shyly...

hiss--!

I always feel that my thoughts are dangerous... No, what's dangerous about them?

Lin Xiao quickly shook his head and got rid of the thought.

Are you kidding? Those two were his wives. Is there anything wrong with being lewd to his wives? There is no problem at all. Even the military police can't do anything about it.

The topic seemed to have gone too far, so Lin Xiao retracted those messy thoughts and focused on the dishes in front of him.

I didn't feel anything because I was daydreaming before, but now that I take a closer look, the dishes are truly exquisite. The appearance alone is enough to make one's eyes light up. Combined with the environment they are in now, it actually gives people the feeling of being in a star restaurant.

Coupled with the tempting aroma, Lin Xiao's saliva began to be secreted crazily. His eyes were fixed on the plate of delicious food. He didn't feel very hungry at first, but now his appetite was greatly opened and he couldn't wait to eat.

But it's obviously not the time yet...

The dishes were still being served one by one. Because there were so many people and it didn't matter if the ship girls ate more, Hai Tian was not afraid of not finishing the food and wasting it, and he seemed to be showing off his cooking skills.

Soon, the table was filled with more than ten dishes, and each one looked very delicate and distinctive, refreshing.

In fact, Lin Xiao remembered that he seemed to have seen several of these dishes on TV before. They were all Donghuang’s famous dishes, but they were complicated and not easy to make.

But now it seems that these dishes are obviously a piece of cake for Haitian. Not only can he make them, but he can even make them very well, unexpectedly well.

"Commander, how about this? Are these dishes enough?"

Lin Xiao was amazed at the richness and exquisiteness of the dishes in front of him. The chef in charge of tonight's dinner also came out of the kitchen, untying the tie of his apron and asking with a smile.

"Enough! Of course it's enough!"

Lin Xiao nodded repeatedly, "Haitian, your cooking skills are really good. This table of dishes gave me a lot of surprises..."

"As long as the commander likes it."

Hai Tian nodded slightly, with a shy smile on the corner of her mouth, fully demonstrating the virtue of Donghuang ship girl's humility and low-keyness.

"All the dishes are served, what are you all still standing there for? Come and eat."

Lin Xiao watched Hai Tian and several other chefs take their seats, and immediately called them to eat. Judging from their performance, this dinner was perfect in appearance, and everyone was looking forward to it...

"This one……"

However, at this moment, Hai Tian spoke with some embarrassment, "Commander, actually, there is another dish..."

"More? But..."

Lin Xiao looked over with some surprise, but wasn't the chef already sitting here?

"Actually, it was Miss Sheffield who insisted on cooking a dish for the Commander, so..."

"Sheffield?!"

Lin Xiao began to have a bad feeling.

"So, what is she going to cook?"

"chicken soup……"

"Send soup?"

Lin Xiao felt increasingly uneasy. There seemed to be a chill in his heart. He even wanted to take out a pen and paper to start planning his final affairs.

Can Sheffield cook?

There was nothing wrong with her cleaning skills, she was also very good at making tea, and although she wasn't good at making pastries, she was still able to do it. But cooking? And Donghuang cuisine?

To be honest, it's not that Lin Xiao doesn't trust her, Sheffield is the ship girl of the Royal Navy! How can you make him feel at ease?

However, the die was cast, and Haitian's notice apparently came too late, because Sheffield had apparently already prepared the dish, and walked out of the kitchen holding a small pot of soup, walking straight towards Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao's forehead began to sweat involuntarily. She looked at Sheffield who was approaching step by step as if she was facing a great enemy - or more precisely, at the pot of chicken soup in her hand.

Don’t come closer, ahhh——! ! !

——However, it was impossible for him to say such words. After all, this was a dish that Sheffield had worked hard to make for him...

Hmm? Wait, something doesn't feel right?

Lin Xiao looked at Sheffield, who had a calm face. On the surface, there seemed to be no flaws, but... was this girl deliberately taking revenge on him?

Lin Xiao was a little unsure, but Sheffield remained calm and placed the chicken soup in front of him.

"Hehe, Commander, here comes the chicken soup~"

"I'm coming?"

"I don't know why I want to use this tone... It's really weird, isn't it?"

Sheffield said this, but his expression remained unchanged. He stared at Lin Xiao like an emotionless machine.

"..."

The pressure came like a tide.

Lin Xiao's breathing slowly became longer, and he forced a smile, looking at Sheffield with "surprise", "Sheffield, this chicken soup?"

"Sheffield made this specially for the Commander. Drink it while it's hot... Strange, I think I suddenly wanted to say this?"

The delicate girl who looked like a doll tilted her neck, but her eyes never left Lin Xiao. Because they had been together for a long time, Lin Xiao could easily read the expectation in her eyes.

Since this soup is made with great effort, of course you would want to let your most caring owner taste it, right?

This is a normal thing in human nature, and it should be a kind of enjoyment, but at this moment Lin Xiao felt somewhat reluctant to do so.

But even if he was unwilling, what did it matter? As a commander, there were so many exciting things to do, and why would he refuse to make the occasional sacrifice?

Even if this chicken soup was just a parcel of soup, even if it was terrible, just because Sheffield had taken care of her the same way every day since they met again, Lin Xiao would not choose to shake his head at this moment.

Be brave, my commander, even if this chicken soup is a rainbow...

For some reason, a strange BGM started playing in his brain, and an extremely crude picture suddenly flashed in his mind. Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and opened the lid of the pot.

"hiss--!"

It wasn't just one person's voice. The sharp-eyed ship girls who saw this also took a breath of cold air, then retracted their necks, shuddered all over, and then looked at Lin Xiao with extremely sympathetic eyes.

Lin Xiao looked at the pot of chicken soup in front of him and fell into a long silence.

No, we really don't even act at all, right? Even if this tsundere little maid wants to take revenge on her master who abandoned her after having sex with her, can you at least make her look more attractive and deceptive?

Is this...really a rainbow?

Lin Xiao looked at the colorful soup with mixed feelings.

"Sheffield, tell me honestly, what did you put in this chicken soup?" Lin Xiao swallowed hard and asked in a trembling voice.

"I don't know... probably something good for the body, so it's okay. I don't remember the details, um, let me think... yeah, it's love."

"like?"

"Yes, it is the pure admiration and liking of a girl, it is my 'expression of love' for you."

So has your love deteriorated? Or has your loyalty as a maid deteriorated?

Lin Xiao secretly complained in his heart, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He looked at the surrounding ship girls, as if hoping that they could save him, but they didn't...

The ship girls who caught his gaze dodged the commander's sight without hesitation at the fastest speed in their lives - although under normal circumstances, no one would be willing to do so.

It seems that he is dead today...

At this point, Lin Xiao's heart suddenly calmed down. He had to drink this chicken soup. If he didn't drink it, not only would he feel guilty... but if the little maid really had any objections, he might not be better off afterwards.

Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well die quickly and accept my punishment.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao made up his mind, gritted his teeth, and summoned up the greatest courage of his life... or should be the greatest courage of the past two lives. He picked up the spoon beside him and gently scooped up a little soup, not much, just half a spoonful of the small spoon. However, seeing the spoon in his hand quickly change color under the immersion of the soup, Lin Xiao's pupils also contracted. But he had no way to retreat. He could only close his eyes, open his mouth, and put the spoonful of soup into his mouth.

"Plop——!"

"commander!"

"Commander, are you okay?"

"Commander, wake up..."

A gradually blurred voice calling from beside him came faintly. At this moment, Lin Xiao's eyes were filled with tears, and a white light appeared in front of his eyes. It seemed that he saw an angel...

However, that was not the case. He was not in a coma. He just had a brief interruption in consciousness, which did not last long, only a few minutes.

Lin Xiao slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly felt that the world before him was more wonderful than ever before. The wife beside him was even more beautiful than usual, and everything was so beautiful...

It’s great to be still alive!

Commander Lin, whose throat felt like it was about to smoke, collapsed into Little Biscuit's arms, and felt that his tongue was still numb.

From now on, Sheffield must never be allowed into the kitchen again...

Chapter 22: The Maid's Service

Sheffield’s chicken soup was a somewhat unexpected episode. Tonight’s main meal was naturally the feast carefully prepared by Haitian.
