Shipgirls and Salted Fish Commander, Port Survival Guide

Standing next to Feiyun was Yixian, who was holding his forehead with his hand, looking helpless.

"Commander, save me, save Feiyun, sob sob."

As if seeing a lifeline, upon seeing Jing Su's arrival, Fei Yun rushed to Jing Su's side, grabbed Jing Su's thigh, and stood there motionless, crying and screaming wildly.

"?"

"Flying Clouds!!!"

Seeing Fei Yun's actions, Yi Xian was furious. Every day, first her best friend stole her husband, and then the younger generation caused trouble. Yi Xian said she was exhausted.

"What happened?" Jing Su asked, picking up Fei Yun.

After Yixian's concise explanation, Jingsu roughly understood what had happened.

It turns out that last night, after everyone had enjoyed themselves and the dust had settled, Feiyun was taken down from the pole. After all, they couldn't really leave her hanging in the sky all night; the purpose of hanging her up there was to prevent her from causing trouble and ruining the wedding that night.

However, since everyone had been drinking and it was a joyous occasion, no one used their abilities to counteract the effects of alcohol, so the supervision of Fei Yun was much lax. After letting Fei Yun go, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. At this time, Fei Yun started causing trouble.

She first sneaked into the restaurant, put something in the water dispenser, and then happily went to sleep. But then she felt unsatisfied, so after getting up in the morning, she went to the kitchen to put something in the kettle.

Unfortunately, the timing was off. Just as they were adding the ingredients, Yixian, who had rushed to the restaurant to prepare breakfast for Jingsu herself, caught them red-handed.

At first, Yi Xian was still immersed in the sorrow of her best friend stealing her husband, and did not notice what Fei Yun was doing. She thought Fei Yun had grown up and was about to praise him when she took a sip of water and was instantly shocked by the strange taste.

Then Jing Su heard Yi Xian's mournful cry.

"Ah, hehe, Commander, well, Feiyun-da, cough cough, I can explain."

Sensing Yixian's grief and indignation, Feiyun said awkwardly.

"You, sigh." After hearing this, Jing Su put Fei Yun down, sighed, but didn't say anything else, only showing a disappointed expression.

"Commander, I..." Fei Yun had originally thought she would be scolded by Jing Su. She had been caught and suffered the same fate before. She was prepared to be scolded and was even thinking about how to continue her adventure. Unexpectedly, after Jing Su put her down, there was no more talk.

Looking up, Feiyun saw Jingsu's disappointed eyes. Looking around, he saw Yixian's sorrowful expression. Behind Jingsu, Changchun's small head was peeking out.

These scenes transformed into a thousand sharp swords, piercing Fei Yun's heart, and a strange chill welled up within him.

Panic, worry, fear—Feiyun felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and her eyes began to glow with a faint light.

There's a saying: those who are favored are always fearless.

Feiyun has a penchant for pranks and has been caught quite a few times, but she never learns her lesson. This is largely because she is a junior member of the Donghuang faction, and no one cares about her much.

The saying "spare the rod and spoil the child" may be extreme, but it's precisely because someone cares about you that they get angry when you make a mistake and want to correct it.

Jing Su's situation was something Fei Yun had never experienced before. She was clever and mischievous, but she was still a child at heart and never thought about what it would be like if one day others didn't react at all to her pranks.

Only someone utterly disappointed in you would remain indifferent to your actions.

Feiyun remembered the explanation he had seen in a video.

As a ship girl, she could directly and clearly sense Jing Su's emotions from the commander's perspective. She knew that Jing Su was truly disappointed now.

"I don't want to be utterly disappointed, Feiyun! Please don't ignore Feiyun! I know I was wrong, sob sob, Commander, I know I was wrong, I'll never do it again."

The glistening tears gathered into beads, turning into a trickle of water.

Feiyun first sobbed softly, then burst into tears, squatting on the ground, her whole body trembling.

Seeing Feiyun crying, Yixian felt sorry for her and stepped forward to pick her up and comfort her, but Jingsu stopped her and mouthed, "I'll handle it."

After a while, Jing Su picked up Fei Yun, put her on a chair, and took out a tissue to wipe away her tears. "Fei Yun, I am very disappointed in your actions today. You know your sister Yi Xian's personality, but you made her so angry that she lost her composure. It is clear that what you did was quite excessive. I am really disappointed. You are a smart child, and I don't know why you have become like this."

Perhaps it was my fault; I was absent for a while and wasn't there for you during your growth. I apologize.

However, your attitude makes me feel relieved. I can tell that you really know you were wrong, which is a good thing. If your reaction just now was indifferent, then I would not only be disappointed, but desperate.

Feiyun, you are a child, playful and want company, which is understandable. But your happiness should not be built on the suffering of others. This is not the behavior of a good child. It's not that you can't joke, but your jokes should not make you angry.

Judging from Yixian's reaction, you are not only not a good child, but even your jokes are very low-level. In short, you still have a lot to learn.

Feiyun, do you believe me?

"Yes, Feiyun, always believe in the Commander." Feiyun's sobbing voice rang out.

"I hope Feiyun will always be happy, but I also hope Feiyun won't be so naughty. We can play together. When the older sisters are busy, Feiyun can leave them alone, okay?"

"Hmm~ Feiyun, Lord Feiyun, I promise you, pinky promise."

"Okay, let's pinky swear. Feiyun will be a good boy."

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Feeding

Fei Yun's farce quickly passed. The little girl cried her heart out. Yi Xian, who was soft-hearted, was about to say words of forgiveness when Jing Su stopped her.

Jing Su directly stated that forgiveness was possible, but the necessary punishment was still required. Therefore, Jing Su indicated that Fei Yun had to drink the entire jug of water with added ingredients, as well as everything in the water dispenser.

Upon hearing the proposal, Fei Yun's expression changed drastically. She clearly knew very well what the water tasted like after she added the ingredient. She was about to say something, but Jing Su's glare silenced her.

"Okay, okay~ Waaah."

Feiyun ran off to get her water cup, crying.

Jing Su has always had a keen sense of smell. As soon as the water was poured out of the kettle, she smelled a sour odor. The water was five-colored, but the smell was, well, quite memorable.

In the end, Feiyun wasn't allowed to drink all the water. The kettle and water dispenser together must have held at least three or four liters, which was unrealistic for a girl to finish.

After drinking three large bowls, Feiyun covered his mouth and ran out.

Jing Su and Yi Xian exchanged a smile, and the farce was over.

After all this commotion, the number of people in the restaurant gradually increased.

This is the time to prepare breakfast. Ship girls need resources to sortie, but they can also eat human food. Theoretically, ship girls can survive on resources, but that would be too wasteful. Besides, who wouldn't eat something delicious?

However, correspondingly, the appetites of the ship girls are truly—frightening!

If the ship girls were allowed to eat as much as they wanted, even the biggest eaters in the world would have to give in.

Because of their large appetite, the little yellow chicken is responsible for preparing all the food. Of course, if you don't like the food the little yellow chicken makes, you can cook it yourself.

Yixian is now running around in the kitchen because she wants to make breakfast herself and personally hand it to Jingsu to enjoy.

"Commander, I'm here!" A cheerful voice drew everyone's attention.

"Good morning, Sister Binjiang." Changchun peeked out from behind Jing Su and said softly.

"Hehe, Changchun, come here, I'll give you candy later." Seeing how close Changchun and Jing Su were, Binjiang raised an eyebrow, then seemed to think of something and said.

"No, no, the commander will give it to me." Changchun stuck out his tongue at Binjiang, pulled his head back, and even buried his head in Jing Su's back in front of Binjiang, rubbing against him.

Stunned by Changchun's actions, Binjiang helplessly mouthed to Jingsu, "Honey, think of something!"

"Alright, alright, let's eat. I'm starving after all this fuss this morning."

"Oh~"

At Jing Su's command, Changchun reluctantly stepped out from behind Jing Su and found a seat.

In fact, Changchun wanted to be by Jingsu's side like she was on the cruise ship, but unfortunately, on the cruise ship, she was second in status, but here, not to mention Binjiang who had just gotten married, Yixian, the leader of the faction, and many other ship girls who were above her in seniority.

Therefore, Changchun, with great self-awareness, went to a table and chatted and laughed with his former friends.

But by running off to Changchun, Jing Su was left out in the cold.

"Here, Commander, try this. Although it's made with little yellow chicken, it tastes pretty good. I originally wanted to cook a Cantonese-style breakfast for you myself. Commander, you grew up in Guangdong Province, right? Eat this first and reminisce."

Yixian pushed a breakfast in front of Jingsu.

"Old, cough, Commander, eat this. Yi Xian's tastes good, but the portion is too small. How can you be full? Come on, eat this. Commander, you went to university in Binjiang, right? Hehe, you went to university in Binjiang and now you've married Binjiang. Commander, you really know how to have fun. Come on, eat up."

After that, Binjiang also brought over a dish. Regardless of how it tasted, the portion was indeed large. The fried dough sticks were almost as long as Jing Su's arm when they were stood up.

"Commander, this is a standard red rice sausage. It's very crispy and tastes great. I remember you really like eating this."

Yixian pushed over a stack of rice noodle rolls, placing them on top of the breakfast box that Binjiang had given her.

"Commander, try the egg burger. I specifically told Little Yellow Chicken to add more eggs and more meat. You're too thin. Eat more and gain more weight. A man should be stronger."

Binjiang pushed over a box, piling it on top of the breakfast that Yixian had just handed over.

"Commander, try the chicken feet. They're very flavorful, tender, and have a great texture."

"Commander, here, these dumplings, with chive filling, will make things a bit more exciting tonight."

A last-minute winner! Binjiang sealed the victory.

Upon hearing Binjiang's explanation, Yixian was stunned, as if struck by lightning. Her body trembled slightly, and her eyes could be faintly seen to be slightly red.

"Commander, what else? I'll make you some goji berry tea later. It's your first time, so you need to nourish yourself a bit, hiss~"

Binjiang seemed oblivious to Yixian's expression, continuing to spew out his words, but before he could finish, he suddenly cried out in pain.

"Binjiang, what's wrong?" Now Jing Su finally had a chance to speak.

"No, it's nothing. I was just having too much fun and my toe hit the table leg." Binjiang grimaced, sweating profusely from the pain.

"Oh, is everything alright? Do you want me to take a look?" Jing Su asked, sounding a little worried.

"No, no need." Feeling the sudden increase in pressure from the delicate white fingers on her waist, Binjiang gritted her teeth and refused the offer that had been so tempting to her.

It turns out that Yi Xian, who had just been defeated, had used his special weapon against Binjiang—"I'll Chop Your Waist."

'Hmph, although you stole my position and took it first, today I'm going to show you who really calls the shots in the entire Eastern Empire camp!'

"Commander, I've finished eating..."

At the door, Changchun, who had quickly finished breakfast, skipped over. As soon as he entered, before he could even finish speaking, he sensed that something was wrong in the room. Seeing Jingsu's pleading expression, Yixian's murderous glare, and Binjiang's grimacing pain, Changchun silently closed the door and left.

Jing Susheng was left staring blankly at the breakfast stacked high in front of him, almost as tall as his head.

"Commander, eat up, don't waste any~" Yi Xian's gentle voice rang out.

"Spare me~" Jing Su cried out inwardly, tears streaming down her face as she began to eat her breakfast.

Why do we say "enjoy"?

Because Yixian didn't even give Jingsu a chance to get her own breakfast. After letting go of Binjiang, she took the initiative to pick up the breakfast, and with a smile and an expression that brooked no refusal, she handed the spoon to Jingsu.

Thus began Jing Su's painful yet pleasurable experience of being fed.

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Unleashing Oneself

Jing Su was helped out of the restaurant.

Jing Su felt as if her stomach had been hit by a thousand points of damage during what should have been a perfectly good breakfast.

"Commander, this won't do. You've eaten too little. There's still half a bowl of soy milk left. It's not good to waste food." Binjiang, who was following behind, put her hands behind her head, looked up at the sky, and complained.

'I lost, I'm not reconciled!'

"Heh, if you want me dead, just say so~" Jing Su was speechless. What could he do? The bowl that the good guy was using to serve soy milk was bigger than his head. With such a large portion, he was already risking his life if he could finish half of it.

"Hehe, Binjiang, it turns out that the Commander still prefers sweet tofu pudding. Eating too much salt for breakfast isn't good." Yixian smiled. Jing Su had already finished the breakfast she handed her, so she had finally won back a round.

“Heretics, utter heretics! Tofu pudding must be savory; eating any other flavor is heresy! Besides, the portion size of your dish is so small; how can it be enough for everyone? Commander, what do you say?” Binjiang gritted his teeth.

"Uh." Seeing the topic suddenly shift to her, Jing Su was taken aback. Facing two burning gazes, Jing Su immediately changed the subject, "Why don't we see what Changchun has to say? She's from the same place as you, Binjiang, and she has overseas experience, so she has more authority to speak on the matter."

"Ah~" Changchun sighed helplessly. How could he suffer even while watching a play? But when he met Yixian's meaningful gaze and Binjiang's fierce look, Changchun stammered, "Can I add, can I add spicy powder?"

"Boom!"

"Ugh, Sister Yixian, why did you hit me? And Sister Binjiang too. Waaah."

Changchun squatted down, head in his hands, tears welling in his eyes.

"Ha, so you're the biggest heretic after all."

"Indeed, the best way to end the sweet vs. savory debate is to find something more extreme. Hmm, but it seems like spicy tofu pudding. I've never tried it before. I'll have to try it sometime," Jing Su muttered to herself.

"Commander!" x2

"Ahem, just kidding!"

. . . . . .

After breakfast, the ship girls began to do their own things.

The Donghuang camp has a relatively small number of people. To manage such a large base, almost everyone has to take on multiple roles. The most direct reason why Binjiang snatched Yixian's wedding earlier was that Zhenhai, who was originally on duty, had other things to do and couldn't leave, so he asked Haitian to take his place.

Haitian is a literary girl who loves to read in various situations. When she doesn't have a book, she likes to daydream. Binjiang was a little worried about the situation, so he came to take a look and happened to come across this shocking news.
