I, Azure Commander!

This is really not a punishment!

Although he knew that Amajo-chan had no strange intentions and was only trying to dispel his worries and bring them closer, and he also understood that the so-called marriage ship was actually just a deeper connection between the commander and the ship girl, and did not necessarily represent a certain relationship, but facing such a cute child, it was still a little difficult to calm down.

It’s not that I have any bad thoughts, but I just have a feeling of “can I really get close to this child?”

To put it bluntly, Lin Xiao, who has been an ordinary person for twenty years, is a little unconfident and seems a little inferior in front of such a cute little angel.

"Lord?"

Xiao Tiancheng looked at Lin Xiao with some confusion. He didn't know why he stayed in the same place again. He poked his waist. She felt that her master seemed to be a little strange.

In the past, the master would often poke and prod her all over, always muttering things like wanting to lift her up high or use her as a pillow. It's just taking a nap together, there's nothing wrong with that, right?

It turns out that we have been apart for too long, and we have become a little estranged?

Little Tiancheng thought so and nodded to himself. Well, that must be the case. If that’s the case, Tiancheng should work harder to make the relationship between the master and her better again!

The little guy tugged at Lin Xiao's sleeve and looked at him eagerly.

"Okay, okay..."

Lin Xiao really couldn't stand the tearful look in the child's eyes, so he immediately raised his hands in surrender.

Lifting the quilt, Xiao Tiancheng wrapped himself in it, patted the mattress beside him, and looked at him expectantly.

Lin Xiao had no choice but to take off his sweaty clothes, went into the bathroom to take a quick shower, then changed into the pajamas that the captain had just sent him, and got into bed.

Xiao Tiancheng immediately came up to him, hugged his waist, buried his little head in his chest, and curled up into a ball with a contented look on his face. He felt the unprecedented sense of security in the past three years, and the sleepiness that was not obvious suddenly came over him. After a while, he closed his eyes and his breathing became even.

The air from the air conditioner blew gently, gradually dispelling the scorching summer heat. The temperature in the room became comfortable and pleasant. The cute child next to me had a faint scent of milk, and his soft body was like marshmallow, soft and a little warm.

Everything was so comfortable. The fatigue accumulated from not getting enough rest last night gradually overcame the complicated thoughts in his mind, as if all the troubles were cleared from his brain at this moment. Soon, Lin Xiao slowly closed his eyes and his consciousness fell into a drowsiness.

He had a dream.

It was as if traveling through the space and time of the universe. It was a long journey. I couldn't tell the direction or the time. At one moment, I finally woke up and opened my eyes. What I saw was a dim starry curtain. Hundreds of dim stars were arranged near or far on the dark blue curtain. The only twinkling star was very close. I could reach out to touch it, or even hold it in my palm.

He held the shining "star" in his hands and magically felt the kindness it emanated, as if they were resonating with each other.

Trust, worship, be close to, like...

They were all beautiful feelings, warming his heart which had become almost numb after a long journey.

Finally, the twinkling stars slowly disappeared into his palm, as if they had merged into his body. The next moment, it was as if a corner of some kind of atlas suddenly lit up. It was not conspicuous on the dim curtain in his heart, but it seemed particularly shining because it was in the darkness.

It was like the haze had faded away and the sun was shining. Lin Xiao felt a warm feeling all over his body. He felt comfortable and at ease, just like a stray cat that had been abandoned for a long time and finally found a place to stay. He greedily licked the dried fish he had not seen for a long time.

I don’t know how long I slept. When Lin Xiao opened his eyes drowsily, the sky had already turned dim. Outside the window was a dark red sunset. The sunset on the sea was an exceptionally beautiful sight, perfect for savoring in a trance.

Xiao Tiancheng seemed to have just woken up, and was rubbing his sleepy eyes drowsily. His originally neat hair became a little messy, which made him even more cute.

Lin Xiao's gaze shifted from the sunset to Xiao Tiancheng, and he miraculously discovered some kind of telepathic understanding between them.

Although it was only a vague feeling, it was undoubtedly an undeniable connection.

He remembered his dream.

Was it a dream? Who knows...

Although such a nap is obviously not healthy, Lin Xiao felt that he was in better condition than ever before. He got up from bed, threw off the quilt, put on new clothes, stood in front of the mirror, and felt that his energy and spirit were particularly good. Even his already handsome face seemed to be more handsome.

Little Tiancheng, who had just woken up, seemed still a little dazed. He climbed out of bed slowly, nodded his head from time to time, changed his clothes, and waited until he got a glass of water to rinse his mouth before he finally perked up. He stood on tiptoes skillfully, picked up the comb and simply combed his hair.

"My Lord, did you sleep well?"

After getting dressed, the little Miss Fox had a peaceful smile on her face, but this perfect smile was immediately broken by a discordant sound.

"Gululu~"

Xiao Tiancheng's face suddenly turned red, he covered his belly, his eyes widened, and his cute look of a little panic made people shout that there were not enough blood packs.

Chapter 15 Your Uncle Dotes on His Dad

"Gululu~"

Miss Fox, who had a reserved look and elegant manners, did not seem to expect that her stomach would suddenly betray her. Seeing her master's expression becoming a little embarrassed, her face suddenly turned red and she covered her face with her hands, as if she was afraid to see people.

However, a big hand quickly covered her head and rubbed Xiao Tiancheng's head. Lin Xiao looked at the sky outside the window and said, "I accidentally overslept. It's so late. Let's go eat something first. I haven't eaten anything since this morning."

After coming back, he was already exhausted, so even though he was very hungry, Lin Xiao just ate some bread or snacks to fill his stomach and then went to bed quickly.

Now that I've woken up, I feel more energetic, and my stomach is also full of life, starting to twitch in protest.

"Ok!"

Hearing Lin Xiao say this, Xiao Tiancheng's embarrassment seemed to be alleviated a lot. There seemed to be light in his beautiful violet pupils, and he was obviously looking forward to the meal.

Speaking of which, in the setting of the previous life, because of his poor health, little Tiancheng received meticulous care and attention from a group of older sisters. The child grew up healthily, but it seemed that he also developed some kind of gluttonous attribute, and he couldn't stop eating when he saw delicious food.

More than half a day has passed since she returned from the sortie. As a ship girl, not eating for such a long time will not cause any problems to her body, but for a foodie, not being able to eat is undoubtedly a very painful thing.

The little guy pulled Lin Xiao's clothes, took the lead and walked in front, leading him towards the restaurant on the passenger ship.

This passenger ship is obviously of high quality. It is more like a luxury cruise ship than a passenger ship. The decorations everywhere are very luxurious, including the cafeteria. The dark yellow lights create a different atmosphere. As soon as you walk in, you can smell the aroma of various foods. The evenly fat and lean meat steaks make a sizzling sound under the roasting flames. The two people who were already extremely hungry began to drool.

There were all kinds of fried, stir-fried and stir-fried food, and the dazzling array of delicacies made people dizzy. Because it was on the sea, all kinds of seafood were laid out at random, as if they were free of charge. As a child who grew up in the inland, he didn't recognize many of the seafood, and he looked at them with envy.

The food in this cafeteria is quite good, and some of it is like a high-end buffet.

It’s a pity that this is not a buffet after all. If you want to eat, you have to pay.

Lin Xiao suddenly thought of this question and subconsciously touched his trouser pocket, and as expected, it was empty.

"My Lord, what would you like to eat?"

Xiao Tiancheng looked up at the dazzling array of delicious food in front of him, poking his lower lip with his finger, and he couldn't wait any longer.

"this......"

Lin Xiao rubbed his hands guiltily, leaned over to Xiao Tiancheng, and whispered, "Well, Xiao Tiancheng, you see, I was stranded on that deserted island by accident, right?"

"Um......."

Xiao Tiancheng nodded with a bit of confusion on his face, not understanding why the master mentioned this.

“So, I don’t have any money…”

Lin Xiao looked extremely embarrassed. As a commander, it was really lame to say such words to his own ship girl.

Xiao Tiancheng's expression became even more confused.

"how could be?"

She looked at the master in front of her with some confusion, then fumbled around in her body, pulled out a crystal card and handed it over.

"Although Tiancheng doesn't really like running commissions, if you want to buy snacks, you need money, so I still have some."

Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. Although he knew that Xiaotiancheng should be rich, he had never asked before, so he was still unsure.

"Then I'll have to ask Xiao Tiancheng to treat me to this meal~"

He then said half-jokingly.

Xiao Tiancheng just tilted his head, with a big question mark in his little brain, "Why? This is all the master's money."

Seeing Lin Xiao's stunned expression, Xiao Tiancheng said logically, "Shouldn't the money earned by the shipgirls from doing commissions belong to the commander?"

"?"

No, it seems to make sense, but there is something wrong.

If it is a normal port, the commander assigns tasks and the ship girls go out to run commissions, and the money they earn seems to belong to the port, and in a sense belongs to the commander, but the money is essentially the common property of the port. It is said that it is taken from the people and used for the people, and ultimately it is used to develop the port, not for the commander to pursue his own personal interests.

Although it was just a meal and not as serious as seeking personal gain, we still have to treat each matter separately.

"That's not right."

He rubbed Xiao Tiancheng's head and said, "This is the money that Xiao Tiancheng worked hard to find and earned from completing the commission. It should belong to Xiao Tiancheng. The commander has no money now, so I have to ask Xiao Tiancheng to take care of the commander who is down and out."

"But... okay."

Xiao Tiancheng seemed to want to say something, but she rolled her eyes and changed the subject immediately. She nodded and said, "Then Tiancheng will treat the master to a meal. What does the master want to eat? Just order whatever you want~!"

Xiao Tiancheng doesn't care about such things. For her, she doesn't care who the money belongs to, so she doesn't want to dwell on this issue. Since the master said so, he must have his reasons. As a ship girl, she just needs to listen.

For her, it doesn't matter whether the master has money or ability. Even if he is a complete loser who has no intention of rebuilding the port area, Xiao Tiancheng will not say anything. At most, she can persuade him with a few words. If it doesn't work, then forget it. It's not easy.

The most important thing for her was that her master would not disappear suddenly again. After all, she was really scared after having experienced the confusion of being helpless and wandering around. As for other things, she would just follow his wishes.

Some people say that commanders should pamper their shipgirls. This is true, but everything is relative. If these shipgirls don't pamper their commanders, who will do it for them? If they don't pamper the commanders, who else can they pamper?

Seeing that his words had made sense, Lin Xiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The ideological education of children cannot be sloppy. Now that the problem has been solved, it is time to consider the issue of what to eat...

"Oh, it's you guys. What a coincidence. Are you coming to eat too?"

Lin Xiao was struggling when he suddenly heard a familiar voice in front of him. He looked up and saw that it was Du Ming and his ship girl. Beside him was his junior Fang Kang.

Chapter 16: Three years, the commander spent three million on me

"What a coincidence, you guys are coming to eat too?"

"Yes."

Although the other party was a senior, there were not so many rules between commanders. They were all colleagues, and there was no need to distinguish between superiors and subordinates. Lin Xiao just nodded as a greeting, "There are too many foods in this restaurant. I'm struggling with what to order."

"Well, you've finally asked the right person!"

Du Ming was immediately alert when he heard this, and said enthusiastically: "I, Du Ming, have been on dozens of similar passenger ships. I wouldn't say I'm very knowledgeable, but I do have some knowledge of the dishes on these passenger ships..."

"First of all, don't eat too much greasy food. Although the passenger ship is sailing very smoothly, it is still inevitable that there will be bumps. If you eat too much greasy food, even people who have been drifting on the sea for many years will feel nauseous to some extent. Especially for a newbie like you, don't eat those greasy things. It's also best not to eat too heavy food. It's not good for your health."

Lin Xiao nodded, agreeing with him. Although he didn't know why, he seemed to be particularly energetic after waking up. However, he had been staying on the boat for a long time. Not to mention seasickness, he was still a little uncomfortable. It would be better for him to eat light food.

"In addition, the seafood on these passenger ships is generally good. Most of them are killed and cooked by big guys along the way. They are very fresh and won't upset your stomach. Of course, you still have to eat in moderation and don't eat too much."

"Finally, remember to eat some vegetables and fruits. Although they are not as fresh as seafood, you still have to consider the issue of nutritional balance."

Du Ming was talking like an old mother. In fact, a lot of what he said were the course contents when he was studying at the Naval Academy.

As special beings who carry the emotions of ship girls, commanders are undoubtedly a very special group. However, commanders are still normal human beings after all. Therefore, the health of commanders has always been one of the focuses of the Maritime Administration.

After all, if a commander, especially a big commander who has many ship girls under his command, has any health problems or even an accident, the morale of the ship girls under his command will be unstable and the port will be disbanded on the spot, which would be a considerable loss.

It is difficult to become a commander. Ninety-nine percent of ten commanders are unlucky. A commander who is lucky and hardworking enough to eventually build a huge fleet is a true "treasure". However, such commanders often have poor health and are prone to "premature death". Therefore, health preservation is one of the compulsory courses for all commanders starting from entering the Commander Academy.

It would be fine if it was just one or two sentences, but if it was too much, Lin Xiao would feel a little overwhelmed. Fortunately, he got some useful suggestions. After all, he was not that picky about food, so he quickly found the target.

"correct......"

Du Ming also stopped his chattering with great tact, looked around, moved closer, and whispered, "Your financial situation... do you want me to advance the money for you?"

After all, they were not that familiar with each other, so he did not directly offer to treat her. His words were polite and cautious, for fear that Lin Xiao would misunderstand him.

"Thank you, but it's not necessary. Xiao Tiancheng said he would treat me to a meal."

Lin Xiao naturally declined politely with a smile.

When he smiled, the smile on Du Ming's face seemed to fade away.

Yes, Little Amagi...

These words seemed to remind him that the guy in front of him was his mortal enemy. He hadn't even embarked on the path of becoming a commander yet, but he had somehow managed to get a battlecruiser boat that was even rarer than a gold skin. Who knows how amazing this guy would be when he gets on the right track!

Damn it, why can't he ever encounter a plot like this where he goes out and meets a rich lolita beauty who saves the "hero" and even keeps him as his mistress?

Damn Europeans!

Thousands of words were condensed into this complaint. After a few polite words, he planned to go buy his own meal. However, he glanced at the crystal card in Lin Xiao's hand. He turned his head 180 degrees and asked in horror, "Where did you get that thing?"

"what?"

Du Ming's voice was quite loud due to his excessive surprise, which scared Lin Xiao. Following his gaze, he looked at the beautiful card in his hand. Lin Xiao said doubtfully, "Xiao Tiancheng gave it to me. Is there a problem?"

Any question?

Du Ming let out a long sigh. This problem was so fucking huge!

He said with a complicated look, "Do you know that the card in your hand is called a Rubik's Cube Crystal Card? As the name suggests, it is made entirely of a Rubik's Cube. Only fully broken Freedom Ship Girls above level 100 are eligible to apply to the Maritime Administration for limited issuance. When necessary, with this card alone, you can borrow eight-digit funds from relevant units."

"How many?"

Lin Xiao suspected that he had heard it wrongly.

"Eight figures, theoretically, the maximum amount of funds is nearly 100 million, but compared to the significance of this card, it is nothing."

Du Ming shook his head. Let’s not talk about the newbies. How could those big guys who have been commanders for many years and are doing well be short of money?

However, the ship girls who have reached level 100 and are fully broken are undoubtedly the real bosses. Even if they go to the front line of the battlefield, they are the core combat force and top thighs. They are "strategic weapons" that require countless frigates to ensure their safety.
