"She said she would accompany me, that there would never be a shortage of topics, and that the stories would never end..."
"Then wouldn't a common interest mean... loving this world?"
Zeppelin breathed a sigh of relief. "Aren't you... a domineering person? Why did you change to this type...?"
"There are gentle and caring protagonists in novels. I'm not a good actor, but I'm sincere to you~"
"...Where did you learn that?"
"Hehe... lines from novels about the entertainment industry."
"You have a good memory, which is amazing...Kiss me?"
"I can't kiss you. You can't do a wall-bang here unless you squat down."
Zeppelin reached out and pulled the man into his arms, lifting him up with his feet off the ground.
She lowered her head awkwardly and ended up bumping into the tip of the other person's nose. Feeling a little frustrated, she had to turn her head and suck hard.
"Then, I'll take you back."
"Have the roles been reversed? Thank you, Mr. Qi. Remember to video call me every day. Otherwise, I will be sad..."
"...Hmph~ It depends on my mood.
Chapter 1141: Freshness all over the body (close)
Su Xin hopes that little Qi Peilin will not focus his life on herself.
Since we are going to fall in love and even take vows of marriage, both parties should at least reach the level of "1+1≥2", right?
If this bond not only does not make the person concerned happy, but instead only adds to his worries, isn't that putting the cart before the horse?
She felt that little Zeppelin was thinking too much and there was no need to regard her as his savior or even let his whole heart be concerned about her.
Marriage and love relationships should be equal. If you have any questions or needs, just raise them directly.
Whether you agree or not can be discussed later, but there is really no need to make a preconceived assumption that the future will be miserable.
However, Su Xin reflected on herself that night and decided to change her personality of "not interacting with people who don't come to her".
It is true that she doesn't like socializing, and it is also true that she rarely uses chat software.
It’s just that we are all in the port area, so it’s very convenient to meet each other, so there’s no need to stay in the dormitory like this.
Even if you have nothing to do, you can go to someone else's house and take a nap. It's not like the KanColles are unwelcome.
This has caused a lot of trouble for the ships of all sizes who have nothing to do during the long grass season.
And putting aside the intention of preparing for a rainy day, it’s actually not a bad thing to cultivate common interests.
So she got up early the next morning, reached for her phone and dazedly sent a message to little Zeppelin.
Su Xin: [Let’s go for a morning run later, do you want to come?]
Guessing that the other party hadn't woken up so early, the little commander turned off the screen, peeled off the rabbit paws stuck on his body and got out of bed.
Wearing slippers, he bent his arms and raised them horizontally like an old man, and twisted his stiff waist.
"cluck cluck cluck"
My bones crackled a few times, a side effect of maintaining the same position all night.
After all, the upper body has to be held sideways in the rabbit, while the lower body is pressed and entangled by the other person's legs. It's bound to be stiff when the upper and lower parts are dislocated for several hours.
As for the body temperature, it no longer bothered her.
The weather in early October should have been a little hot, but the wind has been quite strong in recent days, and the temperature has dropped a lot.
As long as the window is opened at night, it's like using a small electric fan and the air is blowing non-stop.
Because it is not the season yet, Su Xin and Lafei are still covering themselves with air-conditioning quilts.
The cold wind outside is offset by the warmth inside the bed, making it comfortable.
The young commander squinted his eyes and turned to look at the light outside the window. It was bright, but not very sunny.
The city where the port area is located always has rain in October, sometimes light and sometimes heavy, and this year seems to be no exception.
She yawned and quietly went to the bathroom to clean herself up.
After I finished washing up, I came out to change clothes and put on shoes. After I was ready, my phone vibrated at the right time.
Su Xin thought that Xiao Qi Peilin had replied to the message, but when she clicked on it, she found that it was not him.
"Yellow Typhoon Warning... Hmm?"
It's not surprising, just a little unexpected.
She thought that this year it would just be rainy and thundery and then pass, but she didn't expect it to happen suddenly like this.
"Well... I have to remind the barbarians to pay attention to the waterproofing of the construction site."
"...What's up?"
Su Xin looked back and saw the fuzzy bunny with messy hair. "Oh, it's just that there might be strong winds in the next few days, so there will be no classes."
As soon as he finished speaking, Rafi, who had wanted to struggle to get up, immediately lay back in bed.
"...Good night…"
"......morning."
According to her usual habit, Su Xin would drink some water and then go directly to the royal dormitory.
But she reflected on herself last night, and she must not skimp on today. She must first fill little Zeppelin's helplessness.
She stopped and thought for a while, and seeing that it was still early, she simply changed direction and went to the Tiexue dormitory.
It was early in the morning and the Iron Blood Dormitory had just opened. The hardworking Nimi was preparing to eat before going to class.
Unexpectedly, while I was leaning down to hold onto the door frame, the commander came over.
Z23 rarely saw each other in the early morning, especially in his own yard, so he felt a little strange.
"Good morning, Commander. Who are you looking for?"
"Good morning, Nimi-chan." Su Xin walked to the side of the destroyer and helped to straighten his collar. "Are you ready to go to school?"
"Yes."
Z23 was not used to the commander suddenly adjusting her clothes, but she still answered seriously:
"But you have to go to the cafeteria first, and bring Javelin some breakfast. If you don't call her, she'll always be more... well, punctual."
Su Xin smiled, "Ah, then you may have to send it directly to her bedroom today."
"Huh? Why? Today is... yes, it's a workday."
"The weather forecast says there's a typhoon. Should we skip classes for the next two days and continue after the warning is over?"
Z23 was stunned. It was the first time she heard that a ship girl was afraid of strong winds on land. She was more likely to be afraid of Taihou.
It is true that the waves in the water are fierce, and one wave after another can easily capsize the ship.
But with their tonnage, if they stand on the ground, unless they are a rare super hurricane in the world, the small ship girls with stable chassis probably won’t care much.
She had seen the news this morning that it was just a yellow alert and there was nothing wrong with the buildings in the port area, so she didn't take it seriously.
Now that the commander reminded him, Z23 thought about it and decided not to refuse.
After all, the girls' attention will be diverted if there is any disturbance. The teaching quality will not be very ideal if they attend classes in the rain.
"Well, I'll notify the class group and let's have a day off today."
"There are also class groups?"
Z23 gave her a strange look, "Um... yes, Commander, do you want to come in?"
Su Xin waved her hands and said, "I'm just asking. I won't join the group, so that they won't feel awkward when you announce the results."
Teacher Nimi didn't expect that this parent would care so much about the child. She was so touched that she sold the Lafite immediately.
"It is still necessary not to sleep in class. The course content is relatively basic, involving some physics knowledge and mathematical calculations, mainly force analysis and falling point calculation."
“Lafite… is very smart, but he just doesn’t focus on studying.
Su Xin subconsciously touched her ears, feeling quite ashamed. Then she thought, this is not right. She is not the rabbit's guardian, so why should she feel ashamed?
And that sentence is also very familiar, I have even heard it more than once
When she was young, she was always chosen as a student representative at parent meetings to share her learning experiences.
While waiting, she often heard the head teacher say this to a classmate's parents.
[XXX in our family is very smart, but he doesn’t put enough effort into studying, so his grades are not very good. If he works hard, he will be able to improve quickly...]
As a student, she didn’t feel anything at the time, but now as a parent, Su Xin finds herself quite stressed.
Z23 came back to her senses and explained with a bit of embarrassment: "Commander, I'm sorry, I just do it out of habit..."
Su Xin was also embarrassed, "Uh, is being a teacher too stressful? Speaking of which, I didn't give you a summer vacation, how about giving you both winter and summer vacations?"
"Eh? No, no need. Aren't we going to participate in summer activities during the summer vacation? Just take it as a rest. No need to give me extra vacation time."
"That's also work, right? You've been busy for so long..."
"Really, really no need..."
The two of them pushed each other away with red faces for a long time, and were finally caught and questioned by Eugen who was passing by.
"...What are you doing so early in the morning?" The heavy cruiser leaned against the door holding a beer can. "Little Zeppelin will be coming downstairs soon, why don't you hide yourself?"
Z23 glanced at the commander who was covering his nose, frowned and said, "Sister Eugen, why are you drinking again? Didn't Ms. Frederick say -
"So I drink a little more before she gets up." Eugen answered confidently.
Z23 shook his head and wanted to bring breakfast to Javelin, but he was worried about leaving the commander here alone, so he had to wait with him.
It wasn't until the little aircraft carrier walked down the escalator that she breathed a sigh of relief and waved at him.
"Xiao Qi... uh, Sister Zeppelin... Count Zeppelin, the commander is here!"
Little Zeppelin, whose body and soul were not in harmony, was also stunned. He couldn't tell what he felt, after all, they seldom communicated with each other in normal times.
But if you say that the preference is still biased towards the worse, then it is naturally good.
She walked quickly with a wonderful feeling in her heart, stepped forward to take a sniff, and immediately pulled the commander two steps away.
Z23 took the opportunity to say goodbye, "I'm going to bring breakfast to Javelin, and by the way, I'll go see Ayanami, that... Count Zeppelin...?"
"...Just call him Zeppelin." The aircraft carrier turned away and whispered.
Z23 would not care too much about this and continued, "Then Zeppelin, I'll leave the command to you. Sister Eugen, it's better to drink it at room temperature in the morning."
"Well, the ice is refreshing, thank God you don't complain to Frederick the Great."
Eugen looked at the commander again, "...Really, please say a few good words for me. I really don't want to listen to her singing..."
Su Xin nodded helplessly, planning to find an opportunity to talk to the Emperor's mother about it, so as to help Eugen escape from the sea of suffering.
At this point, the four people split into three groups, some eating breakfast, some jogging in the morning, and some going back to the room to catch up on sleep, and each went about their own business.
"Well, I'm wearing sneakers and casual clothes."
"...I'm not stupid."
"Since you're coming out, why don't you reply to my message? Luckily I came all the way to invite you, otherwise you would have missed it."
Little Zeppelin didn't say anything. In fact, she hadn't decided whether she should go or not.
Before, she envied Kewei very much, because she could run with the commander every day and spend a happy morning time.
But when it really comes to my turn, I’m afraid of disrupting the normal communication between the two of them.
Little Zeppelin thinks lowly of himself and thinks too highly of Su Xin, who saved him, which causes him to be hesitant and indecisive in everything he does.
The reason I didn’t reply was that I was thinking of going downstairs and waiting.
If he came, she would participate and add some luster to their "old married" life. If he didn't come, she would be glad that she didn't reply and go upstairs to sleep.
"I didn't expect you to come..."
Little Zeppelin followed behind Su Xin, lowered his eyes to look at the pair of slender legs that were moving slowly in front of him. It was a novelty just to look at them.
"What are you looking at?"
