Commander, you smell so good.

As for Jiang Zheng's little action, Littorio naturally cooperated with his performance, but the performance was always a performance, and the next situation still had to be faced realistically.

For example, after Littorio finished speaking, Zara came over with her sister Pola, and after noticing the two of them holding hands, she sat down next to Jiang Zheng and asked in a friendly tone:

"Commander, can I sit here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze, which had been gradually moving away, stopped on Jiang Zheng again, and his gaze, which had already been fixed on him, became even more intense.

Feeling the gazes coming from all directions, Jiang Zheng said with an awkward but polite expression:

"Sit, you can sit anywhere, sit wherever you want"

"That's great, Paula, let's sit down."

"..."

Hearing Zara's sister Jiang Zheng's intimacy and his impatient look, Pola frowned and realized that things were not simple, but still sat down obediently, switching her eyes back and forth between Zara, Jiang Zheng and Littorio.

His eyes were filled with curiosity and exploration.

"Commander, you won't blame me, will you?"

Although she knew that her actions had caused Jiang Zheng a little trouble, Zara smiled even more, with a hint of amusement in her eyes as bright as golden chrysanthemums.

"It's okay, I just..."

"If Zara is still to blame, then I'll have to compensate the Commander when the time comes~"

Zara smiled, reached out and held his left hand, rubbed it on her thigh, and at the same time pressed his left hand and slowly stroked it up and down.

Feeling the smooth skin and the texture of the stockings Zara was wearing, Jiang Zheng originally wanted to say that it was okay, but now, he had to blame Zara.

Pola, who was standing by, watched the direct interaction between the two with wide eyes and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

When did Sister Zara become so bold as to hook up with Littorio's lover? Isn't she afraid of being criticized?

Bola complained in her heart, but didn't say anything. This was her sister Zara's choice, and as a younger sister all she could do was support her.

At this time, Zara cast a coquettish glance at Jiang Zheng, and then began to introduce her good sister.

"By the way, Commander, we'll talk about compensation later. This is my sister, Pola."

"Pola, say hello to the commander~"

"Eh?! Hello, Jiang, Jiang Zheng, Commander..."

Faced with the sudden matchmaking, Bola was slightly stunned, then returned to her normal posture and greeted somewhat awkwardly.

"It's okay, Bora, you can just call me Jiang Zheng. As for Zara... we have a good relationship, and she is happy to call you that, so you don't have to call her that."

Noticing Pola's discomfort, Jiang Zheng spoke as if nothing had happened, while also looking at Pola a few times.

Well, I can only say that they are of the same lineage, with the same stockings and fleshy thighs.

As for their appearance, the ship girls are all top-notch, naturally beautiful and graceful like lotus flowers emerging from water.

Compared to Zara’s charming look, Pola has a more seductive look.

After stopping his gaze, Jiang Zheng shifted his gaze, causing Pola, who had been smiling, to frown and complain in her heart about his straightforwardness.

But at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little happy. After all, the fact that he could stare at her meant that she was quite charming, at least she could compete with her sister Zara.

Zara took in the actions of the two and sighed in her heart.

Although Bora had some small movements in her heart, she did not seem disgusted and could even go further.

As for Jiang Zheng, there is no need to say more. Zara has already understood that he is a stubborn person who is always looking at the pot while having his fill, and he wants to have both.

So in the row where Jiang Zheng was sitting, the four people all had different ideas, but not surprisingly, they were all caused by Jiang Zheng, who was in the center. At the same time, it also made many ship girls' eyes stay on him more.

More than that, I was curious about him.

"Sorry, I'm late"

While everyone was thinking about this tacitly, Veneto finally arrived at the restaurant where they had been waiting for a while.

Just as he passed by, Veneto reminded Jiang Zheng who looked up at him.

"By the way, Jiang Zheng, don't forget to come see me in the afternoon."

As soon as these words were spoken, they caused a great sensation and attention among the ship girls.

Chapter 25 VV

After breakfast, Jiang Zheng couldn't stand the looks from the ship girls anymore, so he had to follow Veneto to the office, and their steps gradually became synchronized.

But thinking back to what just happened, Veneto realized belatedly that something was wrong. With a slightly red face, he apologized to Jiang Zheng:

"Sorry, did I cause you any trouble just now? Jiang Zheng"

"It's okay, it's not really anything surprising. It's just a date between the two of us. Dating has different meanings. Apparently, they tend to go beyond friendship. Dating..."

"Then... Jiang Zheng, what kind of date do you think we'll have?"

He stopped and turned to look at Veneto. Seeing the expectant look in her eyes, waiting for the answer he wanted, Jiang Zheng wanted to tease the cute Veneto in front of him.

"Well, Veneto, what kind of date do you think we'll have?"

"...Jiang Zheng, you should know that as a gentleman, you cannot answer questions with questions."

"That's a pity, because I'm not a gentleman."

Veneto showed a slightly disappointed look, very dissatisfied with such an answer. Who would answer a question with a question?

Just thinking about what was going to happen next, Veneto became happy again. Thinking that it was still related to him, the expression on her face changed from smiling to depressed, which made Jiang Zheng, who had been paying attention to her reaction, a little puzzled.

Veneto seemed to be acting strangely.

Fortunately, on the way there, the two began to talk again, and they both skipped over the previous topic until they met the dragoons who were guarding their posts.

"Greetings, Dragoon"

"Greetings! Lord Veneto! Commander!"

Seeing the two walking side by side, the dragoon saluted them. Veneto was slightly stunned, but quickly recovered. Jiang Zhengze was already familiar with the enthusiasm of the Sardinian ship girls, and did not care much about her address.

"Good morning, Dragoon. Are you here to take up guard duty so soon?"

Jiang Zheng thought for a moment, then gave up the idea of touching her head. He was surprised and admired that she came here to stand guard so quickly, but when he considered her identity, he felt it was natural.

"Yes! This is my job, I should take it seriously."

"Really? Then you better do your best, Dragoon."

Jiang Zheng encouraged the hard-working little guy with a smile on his face, which made the dragoon look very happy.

After entering the office, Jiang Zheng, who was about to start work, noticed Veneto with her arms folded, lost in thought. Jiang Zheng did not want to disturb her, but waited for her to finish thinking.

"Jiang Zheng, that..."

"It's okay, just tell me, Veneto."

"Why did that kid suddenly call you Commander? I'm curious."

Veneto put down her hands that were propped up on her chest and looked at Jiang Zheng in confusion. As far as she knew, this was Jiang Zheng's third day in Sardinia, and many of his Sardinian compatriots did not take the initiative to communicate with him out of observation.

But judging from what just happened, there's no doubt that their relationship seems to be even better than mine, is that right?

After hearing Veneto's confusion, Jiang Zheng wanted to explain that this was only the second time they met, but when he saw the resentful look in Veneto's eyes, he understood it in an instant.

After sorting out his thoughts, Jiang Zheng slowly explained to Veneto:

"Just like what you heard in the restaurant earlier, they probably mistook it for the real Commander. Out of basic respect, this is perfectly normal."

"Although I would like to find a time to explain it privately, but I can't see her except when I'm on duty, so this is it."

"But, Veneto, do you care?"

Jiang Zheng came up to her and saw her getting increasingly panicked and blushing, and couldn't help but teasing her.

"Hmm... well, I thought the two of us would be closer, but it seems the child is closer to you."

"So, can I call you commander too? Like Littorio, the dragoon?"

Veneto hesitated for a moment, and although he was a little shy, he still expressed his envy of the intimacy between the two of them.

"Okay, you can call me whatever you want, Jiang Zheng, or Commander, it's all fine."

"But forget about it outside. After all, I'm not real. If I really had to give any instructions, it would be embarrassing."

Jiang Zheng held Veneto's hand and spoke seriously.

After all, there is no real material. If we really want to make some tactical plans, we can probably only make the ship's gun rotate 5 centimeters to the left.

After that, there was no doubt that with 800,000 versus 600,000, the advantage was in my hands ().

Then I skipped the third subject on the spot.

"Really? It's okay, then it's settled. Command, officer~"

Feeling Jiang Zheng holding his hand, Veneto blinked and blushed slightly, but then he shouted the name he had always wanted to call him.

As for the real stuff, Veneto is going to prepare a big learning package for him.

"Of course, VV, get to work."

"VV...Vittorio Veneto? I like it very much."

After some emotional exchanges, Veneto and Jiang Zheng sat down at their workstations, but they were surprised to find that there was very little work to do today, and it actually took less than an hour to finish.

Seeing the surprise and disbelief on Jiang Zheng's face, Veneto couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.

Isn't it normal to have less work? Isn't it even more normal to have more time to rest? Why do you look so shocked?

"So, nothing will happen next?"

"If I must say one more thing, it's about the communication from Iron Blood."

Looking at Jiang Zheng who had nothing to do, Veneto thought for a moment and took out a document with a stamp on it, on which was Tiexue's secret communication number.

Then Veneto continued:

"I've already spoken with the Senate. After some debate, they finally decided to communicate with Iron Blood."

"...This is bad news."

"Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, it is estimated that the Iron Blood side wants to make a big move, and during this period, we need the cooperation of the Sardinian Empire Fleet."

Veneto supported his chin with both hands. If he wore glasses at this moment, he would look more like a commander.

"Commander, do you have any unique insights on this?"

There was a hint of importance in her beautiful eyes, and she wanted to get his opinion, which was different from that of the Senate, if possible.

After all, no matter what, he is the one he calls the commander.

Chapter 26 You win, win, win, but in the end you lose everything

"No, is that what I can say?"

When Jiang Zheng heard Veneto say that he wanted his own unique insights, he couldn't help but want to wipe the non-existent shame from his forehead.

However, Veneto smiled slightly, narrowed his eyes, and refuted his words:

"Of course, although I may not necessarily adopt them, most of the time, I am also willing to listen to the suggestions of my colleagues."

"As the flagship commanding the Sardinian Empire Navy, I naturally cannot ignore the opinions and recommendations of those around me. Besides..."

As she said that, Veneto moved her hips, getting closer and closer to him, until their arms were touching. Veneto took the initiative to reach out and hold his hand, interlocking their fingers.

Her charming eyes were filled with trust and recognition for him, and she spoke into his ear in a slightly seductive tone:

"In order to carry forward the glory of the Sardinian Empire, each of us must work hard."

"Commander, you should also do your best, hehe~"

Jiang Zheng slowly turned his head and saw Veneto with a bright smile on her face. Feeling her teasing him and her delicate little hands holding his, Jiang Zheng had no choice but to face her with an expression of "I really can't do anything with you".
