Shipgirls and Salted Fish Commander, Port Survival Guide

"Okay, okay, I'm coming right away~"

Upon hearing Jing Su's instructions, Guanghui immediately grabbed several bags of glucose water, rushed to Jing Su's side, and tore one open. However, he used too much force and the bag was torn in two, spilling glucose water everywhere and wetting the bed sheet.

Seeing this scene, Guanghui stood there dumbfounded, at a loss for what to do.

"Slow down, take your time, don't rush. I'm fine, just a little low blood sugar."

Seeing this, Jing Su knew that she had to calm Guang Hui down first, otherwise, if she wasn't careful, she might suffer the consequences even if nothing happened.

Although she didn't know what was wrong with her, to put it mildly, Jing Su was somewhat grateful for her chronic stomach problems. She could say that she had low blood sugar, which perfectly matched the symptoms she had just experienced. She could easily recover by replenishing her sugar levels, which was the best excuse.

"Good~"

"Whoo~"

Guanghui took a deep breath, trying to calm his turbulent heart. Hearing that it was low blood sugar, Guanghui's anxious heart calmed down a little, and he picked up the second packet of glucose solution.

This time, Guanghui was much more careful. In a corner, he gently tore open a small hole, but then froze. Without a straw, how could he feed Jingsu?

His mind was a complete mess, and he didn't have time to think of any other methods. He just took a deep breath through the gap and then, under Jing Su's astonished gaze, he...

Lips to lips, mouth to mouth~

"Cough cough~" Whether it was because she was startled or because Guanghui used too much force, Jing Su choked a little.

"Commander, how are you feeling now?" Jing Su choked and tears streamed down her face after gulping down a bag of glucose solution. Guanghui picked up the third bag, ready to tear it open, but still asked worriedly.

"Phew~ Let me catch my breath first. After all, I just drank it, so it needs some time to digest and absorb it." Whether it was psychological comfort or something else, Jing Su felt much more energetic after drinking this bag of glucose solution.

"Uh-huh."

Seeing that Jing Su's complexion was much better than before, Guang Hui was overjoyed. Without saying a word, he tore open the third bag and prepared to do the same thing to Jing Su.

"Wait!" Jing Su quickly stopped him upon seeing this.

"Gulu!"

Upon hearing the sound, Guanghui nearly spat out the glucose water in his mouth. It took a lot of effort to swallow it down. Then, Guanghui looked at Jingsu with a puzzled expression.

"It's not good to drink too much of this stuff at once. How about this, I'll take a sip, hold it in my mouth, and then spit it out. That way, I can absorb it the fastest."

"Mm." Glorious nodded.

And so, their lips met once again.

"Pfft~"

Once she felt she had had enough, Jing Su, with Guang Hui's help, spat the glucose water in her mouth into the pool.

"Commander, how are you feeling now?"

As he lay back down on the bed, Guanghui's anxious voice rang out again.

"Much better. It seems that it was indeed a very serious case of hypoglycemia," Jing Su reassured her.

Actually, Jing Su couldn't make a definitive conclusion about whether it was hypoglycemia. After all, if it were really so severe that she couldn't even stand up, she would be completely weak and unable to speak. But just now, she wasn't completely powerless. Although her mind was foggy, her judgment was still intact. In short, she might need to undergo more tests to make a definitive conclusion.

"I'll go get a few more bags of glucose water." Hearing Jing Su's words, Guanghui was overjoyed. The weight in his heart was finally lifted, and he was excited and calm. He planned to go get some more glucose water, but as soon as his feet touched the ground, his body suddenly went limp and he almost fell to the ground.

Only then did Guanghui realize that he was covered in sweat and felt completely weak. The feeling of surviving a close call had drained all his strength.

"You were worried about me, but you're exhausted too. Come on, lie down on the bed for a bit, you need to rest too~" Jing Su smiled helplessly, moved her body, and gestured for Guang Hui to come over as well, so that they could all rest together.

"Okay~" Guanghui, who had just come to her senses, blushed slightly. Without saying anything else, she silently climbed into bed and lay down next to Jing Su, her eyes fixed on Jing Su.

"Commander, what's wrong with you?"

Perhaps it was because Jing Su was no longer in serious condition, or perhaps it was because Jing Su had a unique ability to soothe her, in any case, after lying down for a while, Guanghui recovered from her anxious state and the intelligent and lively Guanghui returned.

"I don't know either. I was like this as soon as I woke up. But judging from my condition, it's like my body has been completely drained."

"Squeeze, squeeze dry?" Guanghui was stunned.

"It's not the kind of 'squeezing dry' you're thinking of. To put it more scientifically, it's more like all the nutrients in the body have been depleted," Jing Su said after a moment's thought.

"So, it's that experiment from last night? The air-to-air bomb attack?"

Once the radiance calmed down, it was already quite agile, and it quickly realized what Jing Su was saying.

"It's most likely. I thought it might be a gastrointestinal issue, but after such a long period of recuperation, my stomach problems have become rare. I even ate quite a lot last night, so I ruled that out."

After eliminating all other options, that one remains—that's the only possibility.

"So, Commander, you can let us launch airstrikes, but the price is that it will consume your nutrient reserves?"

"Most likely." Jing Su nodded, recalling a certain American superhero TV series. The protagonist's ability was to run fast, but correspondingly, it consumed a lot of energy, and he would often lose consciousness while running.

If I were in the same situation, I would be really lucky. If I hadn't eaten something to replenish myself before going to bed, I might have passed out in the state I was in when I woke up.

"Thank goodness." Jing Su breathed a sigh of relief, still shaken.

"commander?"

Jing Su's unusual behavior made Guang Hui worry again.

"I..." Jing Su wanted to continue comforting him, but felt that simple words wouldn't ease the tension. Then, her eyes darted around, and she said, "Guanghui, you could have just given me the glucose water directly. What's the meaning of this mouth-to-mouth feeding?"

"Eeya, Commander~"

Guanghui realized what was happening, her pretty face flushed red, and she said angrily~

Chapter 136 The Dull Little Yellow Chick

After confirming that Jing Su was alright, Guanghui returned to his room and changed his clothes.

Last night was a lot of fun, so Guanghui didn't change his clothes. Later on, Jingsu even tore them to shreds.

Oh dear, how embarrassing!

Standing in the room, leaning against the door, Guanghui's calves suddenly slammed into the ground. At this moment, she realized that she had just lost her composure.

Is this what they call "concern leads to confusion"?

Holding the clothes in one hand, she started to let her mind wander.

'If the commander is right, then the nature of this airstrike needs to be carefully examined.'

Is it worth sacrificing physical strength for greater combat power?

If the aftereffects are like the exhaustion we just experienced, how long will it take for these aftereffects to appear? The sample size is too small; to know for sure, we'd need to conduct another experiment.

Absolutely not. A commander like that is terrifying. It's just maintaining combat effectiveness while empty of ammunition, right? That kind of thing is fine even without it. If it's the commander's body that suffers, it's better to never use it at all.

"Guanghui, are you done yet? I cooked you some noodles, come and eat quickly, they'll get cold soon."

After an unknown amount of time, Jing Su's voice rang out.

"Okay, come right away."

After regaining his senses, Guanghui grabbed a few pieces of clothing, quickly put them on, and went outside.

"Wow, it smells so good."

As soon as he stepped outside, the aroma of noodle soup filled the air, and it was then that Guanghui realized he was hungry.

"That portion on the table is yours."

You saw how I looked just now; I was really starving. So I ate something first. The seasoning was leftover barbecue broth from last night, and I had some salt left over, so I cooked a bowl of plain noodles. It tasted alright; give it a try!

Jing Su was seen holding a porcelain bowl, slurping as she spoke.

"Hmm~"

She tucked the ends of her hair behind her ear, walked gracefully to the chair, leaned against Jing Su, and sat down together.

Whether it was her lover beside her or the scalding hot soup, Guanghui's pretty face was flushed.

"What's wrong? Is it hot? You didn't burn yourself, did you?"

Jing Su quickly noticed the unusual appearance of the light. She put down the porcelain bowl, leaned closer to the light, and asked worriedly.

"I'm fine."

She shrank back slightly, smiled broadly, picked up the porcelain bowl, and began to enjoy the breakfast that Jing Su had personally prepared for her.

Is this what a mundane married life is like?

It's actually quite comfortable~

I wish things could stay like this forever.

As is customary, Jing Su placed chopsticks on the porcelain bowl. Guang Hui had clearly learned how to use them, and he was quite skilled at it.

A few days ago, when Jing Su was eating at a restaurant, she paid special attention to how the royal ladies ate. Most of them used knives and forks, and chopsticks were also used, but very few people used them.

However, the food prepared by the royal camp was mostly bacon and steak, which was more convenient to eat with a knife and fork. Moreover, Jing Su was not a forceful person and would not impose his own cultural habits on others. He was already quite surprised that the girls from other camps could speak the Eastern Huang language.

It seems that, according to Yixian, in the entire port area, apart from their own faction's language, every ship girl can speak the Eastern language. Perhaps a few ship girls may have some accents when they speak, but they can all understand the meaning. Of course, the premise is that the conversation does not involve specific allusions or idioms.

As someone who considers herself the perfect wife, Radiant naturally learned how to use traditional cultural items like chopsticks. To master these skills, Radiant even went to the Eastern Empire's camp for further study and spent a Spring Festival there.

The wonderful atmosphere during the Spring Festival in Donghuang at that time made her feel very novel. At first, she went to learn about Donghuang culture specifically for Jing Su. Later, she discovered the wonder of Donghuang culture and gradually fell in love with it. Guanghui even had a very beautiful cheongsam.

It's a pity the cheongsam was kept inside the castle, not in the secret bathhouse base; otherwise, wearing it last night might have created a more atmospheric ambiance.

However, it's not the same. Glorious really likes that cheongsam. It's said to have been hand-sewn by a skillful ship girl from the Eastern Empire faction. You can't buy it outside. She wore it out last night, and if Jing Su had torn it, she would have been heartbroken.

"I'm full, Commander, it was delicious."

While thinking, she ate, and before she knew it, Guanghui had finished all the noodles in the pot. When she tried to scoop them out, she found that there were none left. Her pretty face flushed slightly, and she put down the porcelain bowl, pretending to be calm.

"Ah~"

Jing Su leaned forward and exclaimed in surprise, "No, this is a whole pot!"

"Ahem, Commander, isn't it because your cooking is too delicious? That's why I couldn't help myself."

Guanghui was very embarrassed, and she thought to herself that something was wrong, as the ladylike image she had always cultivated seemed to have been shattered.

For ship girls, the resources needed for sorties can actually be extracted from ordinary food, but the efficiency is very low and the quantity required is very large.

Therefore, when the ship girls eat, they usually only satisfy their own appetite and do not specifically convert the energy in the food to replenish their sortie resources.

Ultimately, however, the ship girls can convert food into resources. In other words, all the ship girls are big eaters and can eat as much as they want without worrying about gaining weight.

The ship girls can eat their fill. Without resource conversion, they are just human-sized with not much room in their stomachs. But after conversion, they can eat for days and nights without any problem.

Just now, Glorious got distracted while eating, his thoughts wandering off somewhere. Since he was already in a state of having few resources, he subconsciously started converting the food.

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay. I'm glad you like it. I was worried you wouldn't like it." Seeing Guanghui's embarrassed look, Jing Su laughed heartily, leaned in front of Guanghui, and gave him a 'kiss', not caring about the oil on his lips.

After spending time together, Jing Su has come to understand that Glorious has two faces, one in public and one in private. In front of other ship girls, Glorious is a golden armored aircraft carrier, a port veteran, a secretary ship, and a marriage ship. In short, she has a distinguished status, and seriousness and dignity are synonymous with Glorious.

Those who know Glorious well might know that she is a hidden schemer. Her stern demeanor is only to maintain the stability of the port. If you accidentally offend her, Glorious may not say anything, but she will definitely play a trick on you with a smile in some way.

On Jing Su's side, Guanghui is a bit silly and cute. She loves to act spoiled, doesn't care about her clothes, and will snuggle into her arms whenever she gets the chance. She's a big girl who can't be coaxed no matter what, and a reliable wife.

That face is a true radiance, Jing Su doesn't know, but every radiance has a different charm. To this, Jing Su said, no matter what kind of radiance, she is my wife!

"Commander~" Seeing Jing Su's mischievous smile, Illustrious slammed her foot on the ground, causing the bridge to shake violently. Illustrious was now able to naturally display her physical charm.

"Haha~ Glorious, you are so cute~ I like you so much~ It's so good to have you in my life."

Jing Su scraped Guanghui's nose and then started shoveling his noodles back into his bowl.

"Me too~ My favorite commander."

Hearing Jing Su's words, Guang Hui breathed a sigh of relief, sat down in the chair, rested his head on Jing Su's shoulder, and murmured.

'You've got me completely under your thumb for life~'

After eating and drinking their fill, Guanghui started the little yellow chicken to clean up the scene.

The commotion last night was quite significant. While the scene wasn't exactly a complete mess, it was certainly an eyesore. As someone with mild mysophobia, Guanghui naturally couldn't tolerate the chaos any longer after realizing what had happened.

It's a secret base that I've carefully prepared, and I might need it in the future, so I definitely need to keep it tidy.

Jing Su went into the room and began choosing clothes.

We originally planned to take a bath at the bathhouse last night and then do laundry, since there's a dryer in the room. But unfortunately, Guanghui was too vigorous last night, and Jingsu's clothes were gloriously sacrificed.

It must be admitted that Guanghui's technique was extremely advanced. In one swift motion, he tore Jing Su's clothes from top to bottom into two even halves, not even sparing his underwear.

Inside the room, Jing Su could still fasten her pants with a belt, but how could she wear this out when she was about to go out? The girls would definitely make a huge fuss if they saw her like this.

However, since this is a girl's room, finding a piece of men's clothing here is rather difficult.
