Elder brother's garrison

Then, seeing Xie Yun and Xiao Bai stop at the warehouse entrance, and looking behind the wedding rings in the glass cabinet by the door, she nodded knowingly.

"Hey kid, Admiral Lu Lin's ship girls seem a bit strange." Cleveland said to Nia, looking at Fubuki and the others' expressions.

“Ah, well, how should I put it, it’s roughly like this.” Nia nodded, looking at Cleveland.

“By the way, Cleveland, do you want a wedding ring?” Nia asked.

“Me?” Cleveland didn’t expect Nia to say that. She pointed to herself and pondered for a moment. “Hmm… buying a gift is a good idea. I don’t dislike it.”

Cleveland genuinely considered Nia family, without any ulterior motives.

“Then I’ll buy you a wedding ring when I make money in the future,” Nia said to Cleveland.

Cleveland reached out and ruffled Nia's hair. "Okay, thank you."

On this side, Xiaobai and Xie Yun stood in front of the glass display case, looking at the sparkling rings inside.

Since the rings aren't used in combat, they're quite cheap—10,000 merit points each.

However, although this item is cheap, it carries great significance, and admirals will not buy it unless they establish a relationship with the ship girl, so sales are not high.

"Rings..." Xiaobai murmured, looking at the rings sparkling behind the glass case.

Although Xiaobai is clueless about love, that doesn't stop her from liking jewelry like rings with precious diamonds.

Which girl doesn't dream of wearing a wedding dress?

"Miss Lu, if you like, you can pick it up and try it on." Xie Yun pushed the glass cabinet open, gesturing for Xiaobai to make his choice.

Xiao Bai thanked Xie Yun with delight, then reached out and took out a ring, putting it on the ring finger of her left hand.

Ice and cold.

Xiao Bai raised her hand and looked at the ring on her ring finger, then suddenly burst out laughing.

Selling rings and trying them on herself—does that mean she's going to marry herself?

Xiaobai finally took off the ring and turned to look at her ship girl.

Strangely enough, the moment Xiaobai turned around, the murderous aura emanating from the ship girls vanished instantly, as if they had seen the sun.

"Veneto," Little White called to Veneto, "Can you come here for a second?"

Veneto looked at Little White.

Her calm face remained expressionless as she nodded slightly and walked up to Xiaobai.

"Veneto, thank you for coming here with me," Xiaobai said gratefully.

"Yes. You're welcome, Admiral," Veneto said casually.

“Veneto, this ring is a gift from me. May I ask if you will accept it?” Xiaobai presented the ring to Veneto. “It doesn’t mean anything by it. I just want to thank you as the admiral for your help.”

Veneto looked at the ring on Xiaobai's hand.

"Ahem." Veneto nodded. "Yes, I think so too."

Veneto felt very conflicted.

But for some reason, I felt a sense of relief.

Veneto smiled easily, extended her hand, and placed it on Shiro's hand with her fingers slightly spread: "Admiral, even if you are a girl, you still have to pay attention to the rules when giving a ship girl a wedding ring."

"what do you mean?"

With a smile, Veneto said to Little White, "The Admiral doesn't even know which finger a ring should be worn on, does he?"

"Oh!" Xiaobai understood what Veneto meant, picked up the ring in her palm, and gently put the wedding ring on Veneto's small hand.

"Thank you, Veneto," Xiaobai said softly.

“Trivial ceremonies mean nothing; the time spent with you has already proven everything.” Veneto finished speaking with his head down, then raised it again. “However, thank you, Admiral. I will cherish it.”

Xiaobai smiled as she watched Veneto lower the hand that had put on the ring, and silently walked back to the very back of the ship girls.

"Admiral! Admiral!" Fubuki came over at this moment, her eyes pleading. "Admiral, Fubuki wants some too."

"Yes, yes, you won't be left out." Xiaobai reached out and tapped Chuixue's nose.

Fubuki is Shiro's favorite destroyer, so how could we forget her ring?

Veneto walked to the very back of the ship girls.

"Big sister!" Roma looked at Veneto excitedly, "Big sister Veneto! The Admiral gave you the ring!"

"A ring?" The Empire looked at Rome and murmured to itself, "True love?"

"Oh! Empire, you know a lot!" Rome looked at Empire with sparkling eyes. "That's right! This is proof that the Admiral has fallen in love with Sister Veneto! Even the Admiral has ultimately succumbed to Sister Veneto's heroic charm!"

“Charm…” The Empire looked down at Veneto.

"As expected of our Italian champion! Veneto is awesome!" Roma was so excited he was practically a ghost, practically waving his cheerleading cap and cheering Veneto on.

Did you see it? Did you see it?

This is our Italian flagship, the first ship of the Veneto class, the embodiment of elegance and power!

Even a male admiral couldn't resist her charm and presented her with a wedding ring!

Rome now idolizes Veneto immensely.

"Hmph." Veneto crossed his arms, gave Rome a cold glance, and walked away.

Amidst the cheers of Rome, Veneto walked to a secluded corner.

Veneto looked around to see if anyone was there.

After confirming that it was safe around him, Veneto covered his face and slowly squatted down on the ground.

The sparkling diamond ring on her finger contrasted with the blood-red blush on her snow-white cheeks.

Chapter 269 A Story Written for Someone

Veneto was not as calm as he appeared.

As the leading ship of the Italian Veneto class, the Veneto had her own pride, but what she pursued was a peaceful and tranquil life.

Veneto's dream was to stay in the naval base, spending 80% of his life slacking off, and then, when a fight was needed, to unleash his inner warrior with an Italian cannon before returning to his leisurely life.

After all, life is only about 20,000 days long, so we should cherish each day as it comes.

Receiving the admiral's wedding ring was quite important to Veneto, as it affected her future life.

As for why, you can go to the naval base and take a look at the ship girls who were married by the former admirals. Apart from the destroyers, none of them are idle; they are all fulfilling their duties in the core of the naval base.

Even now, I'm extremely busy.

In short, although Veneto's dream was to be a leisurely battleship, that dream seemed to drift further and further away after she became the "third wife".

Especially after she obtained the White Ring, Veneto was basically completely trapped in the vortex called White, and it was difficult for her to extricate herself.

But even so, Veneto could have refused Baifern's wedding ring.

Even if it carries the strongest moral significance, a wedding ring is still a wedding ring, a ring of vows. Ship girls have the right to refuse something so weighty.

Veneto covered his face and squatted in the corner.

Unfortunately, Veneto did not refuse Bai Jingting's wedding ring.

Xiaobai slowly pushed the Oath Ring onto the ring finger of Fubuki's right hand.

Xiaobai let go of her hand.

Fubuki raised her hands and looked at the backs of her hands.

The ring on her left ring finger is the wedding ring of the former admiral, and the ring on her right ring finger is the wedding ring of the current admiral. Both rings are gifts from the person Fubuki loves most.

Fubuki was overjoyed.

"Hahaha! Fubuki is the happiest person in the world right now!" Fubuki twirled around, laughing carefree.

Fubuki's three younger sisters gathered around her, staring at her hands as if they were witnessing a miracle.

Wow! Sister is amazing!

"My sister has captured the hearts of two people!"

"My sister is the first person in the garrison to possess two rings, the Qi II Sanling and the Jiu Qi San Si!"

The three younger sisters gathered around and started blowing snow.

Fubuki cupped her face in her hands, two rings sparkling on her ring fingers: "Ah, Fubuki married two men, Fubuki is a sinful woman—"

Xiaobai looked at Chuixue, smiled, and shook her head.

Perhaps her brother gave her the wedding ring because he wanted to see her so happy.

Turning to Xie Yun, he said, "Thank you, Sister Xie Yun. I'll buy these two."

"Why don't you buy more? I can tell the other ship girls like you a lot too. Miss Lu, they won't refuse if you give them wedding rings," Xie Yun asked.

"Hmm... now's not the time," Xiaobai said.

Xiao Bai was born to be liked by destroyers and had a good relationship with Veneto. Rome and the Empire wouldn't have any bad thoughts about her because of Veneto. As for Sukhbaatar, she was a typical ship girl who was obsessed with money. How could she not like such a big diamond on her wedding ring? So if Xiao Bai really wanted to give everyone present a wedding ring, it wouldn't be an impossible task.

But it's a wedding ring, after all. Fubuki and Veneto are Shiro's favorite ship girls and the ship girls who take the best care of Shiro among those present, so their bond is always a bit deeper.

Even if Xiaobai is a girl, you can't just give her a ring so casually.

"Xie Yun understands." Xie Yun closed the glass cabinet.

Xiao Bai handed the Admiral's Certificate to Xie Yun.

Xie Yun lowered her head and accepted the money, then went to the staff to pay the bill.

At this moment, Nia and Cleveland also returned.

"Xiaobai, you bought a ring?" Nia asked, looking at Xiaobai.

"kindness."

"Who did they all go to?"

"Veneto and Fubuki".

"Fubuki? Doesn't she already have a ring?"

"Ah... well, let's just say it's like Yilin III gave me another ring," Xiaobai said.

"Oh~" Nia smiled as she looked at Xiaobai, "Girls are just so great."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"You've married a destroyer, and twice at that. If you were male, you'd probably be under investigation by the military police in a few days."

Xiao Bai looked at Nia and smiled helplessly.

"How are you feeling in Cleveland?"

"I'm not sure, but it should be much better now," Cleveland said to Xiaobai.

"That's good." Xiaobai turned to look at her ship girls.

The four Fubuki sisters were still basking in the memory of their eldest sister marrying the admiral again. Sukhbaatar stood between Rome and the Empire, gazing at the two rings on Fubuki's hand with admiration, while Pachina pressed her finger to her lips, looking on with envy.
