Elder brother's garrison

—But now Duan Shuiliu is saying that she knew my secret through Mu Yu??

Is it a metaphor for wood?

It was that traitor!

This statement is truly shocking for a novice.

Make sense.

Although this statement is very unfair to Mu Yu, I still have to say it.

Although Xiaobai had always disliked Mu Yu, the lazy governor who always tried to curry favor with her, after the matter of Chairman Er Gou settled down and Xiaobai returned from the Mu family, she was still willing to believe that although Mu Yu and Mu Xi were siblings, he was different from her sister and was actually a person she could trust and rely on.

Ok.

Simply put, Xiaobai thinks Muyu is quite reliable.

So almost from the very beginning, Xiaobai subconsciously ignored the possibility that Mu Yu had leaked information.

Look.

What a profound trust this is.

However, the cold reality dealt Xiaobai a severe blow.

This time, it really was Mu Yu who betrayed Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai's trust was trampled on.

Xiao Bai's heart is scarred.

Xiaobai cried bitterly.

Mu Yu! ! !

You, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes!

Little Whitey on the stool stomped her feet, clenched her two little fists, and looked heartbroken.

Under Duan Shuiliu's gaze, Xiao Bai's face changed color after hearing Duan Shuiliu's answer, turning from black to green, until finally she was filled with barely suppressed anger and slammed her hands on the workbench to vent her frustration.

"Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!"

Even Xiaobai herself was angry for the first time. She pursed her lips, puffed out her face, and snorted softly.

Even after being slapped several times, the newbie didn't seem to feel any relief.

"Wood……"

"Mu Yu!!!"

"You!! You bastard, beep ...

Xiao Bai, his face flushed with anger, tried using foul language.

However, after racking his brains, Xiaobai couldn't think of many words to curse, so he manually muted himself and made a series of "bibibi" sounds.

Don't tell me.

That actually felt pretty satisfying.

Xiao Bai was satisfied.

However, the water flow by the stove seemed a bit sluggish, and it couldn't quite keep up with the novice's actions.

Finally, having vented his anger, Xiaobai gradually calmed down.

After calming down, Xiaobai naturally remembered the important matter at hand.

Xiao Bai raised his head and looked at Duan Shuiliu by the stove.

"Sister Duan, when did Mu Yu tell you about this?"

About half a year ago.

"Huh?? So early??" Xiaobai exclaimed in surprise again. "Wait a minute...wasn't it just half a year ago..."

"When you first received the ship equipment."

"So—early—betrayal!" Xiaobai gritted her teeth, picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a cheese-stuffed fried pork chop, and stuffed it into her mouth.

While shocked by the traitor's extraordinary skills, Xiaobai turned his grief into appetite.

Pork chops make my throat ache.

Fried pork cutlet is so delicious...

Duan Shuiliu watched as Xiaobai crunched on the pork chop, his face shifting between anger at being betrayed and tears of emotion, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Xiao Bai is probably in a daze due to the shocking reality, to the point that his actions and speech are somewhat out of control.

Simply put, it's like a very introverted child who has been bullied and has nowhere to vent their anger, so they start to want to cause trouble.

—He really looks furious.

Duan Shuiliu silently watched Xiaobai.

Think of this.

A burnt smell wafted from the oil pan.

Duan Shuiliu turned around and realized that while he was getting angry at Xiaobai, the pork chop that had been deep-fried in the oil had turned completely black.

Duan Shuiliu reached out and turned off the oil pan.

Then they took out the charred pork chop and put it aside.

"That was the first time I met Mu Yu, and he was the one who brought it up with me." Duan Shuiliu wiped his hands on his apron as he spoke to Xiaobai and walked towards her.

"Huh?" Upon hearing Duan Shuiliu's words, Xiao Bai, who was chewing on a fried pork chop, paused and turned her head.

I just turned my head.

Duan Shuiliu slowly squatted down beside Xiaobai, took out a few pieces of paper from his apron pocket, and gently wiped Xiaobai's greasy lips.

"Eat slowly."

"..." Xiaobai blinked, then blushed and let go of the plate of fried pork cutlet. She quickly took the tissue from her mouth and wiped her mouth with her head down. "I...I can do it myself...No, I'm sorry..."

After Xiaobai took the toilet paper from Duan Shuiliu's hand, she didn't stand up. She quietly maintained her delicate squatting posture, staring at Xiaobai from bottom to top.

"...Um, why did Mu Yu take the initiative to tell you, Sister Duan..."

“I am the captain of the military police. If I know about this, it will be much easier to protect you.”

“…Ah.” Xiao Bai, who was wiping her mouth, was startled and looked at Duan Shuiliu with some surprise.

After making eye contact with Xiaobai, Duan Shuiliu, who was squatting on the ground, showed a caring smile on his fair face.

His black, tousled hair was damp with sweat, each strand slightly bent.

Beneath her fair and delicate neck, the collar of her white shirt, damp with sweat, was slightly open.

The Duan Shuiliu before Xiaobai's eyes now resembled a hazy oil painting.

There's an inexplicable maternal aura about her.

"Yes, I'm a good person."

Duan Shuiliu smiled gently.

It felt like the sky had cleared up.

Chapter 1104 Insignificant Efforts

As we all know, there are quite a few ship girls in the newbie naval base.

Without exception, ship girls are all exceptionally beautiful, judging by their appearance alone. They are like naturally beautiful young ladies with built-in beauty filters and facial enhancement systems. Even the destroyers among the ship girls who haven't fully matured are all little angels who surpass ordinary three-dimensional beings.

Surrounding Xiaobai are many stunning beauties, such as Saratoga and Missouri, who are among the top-tier ship girls in terms of looks. As a result, Xiaobai, as the admiral, has become accustomed to seeing the appearances of these ship girls while living in the naval base, and his aesthetic standards have unknowingly improved considerably.

If you count carefully on your fingers, among all the living human women that Xiaobai has met so far, only Governor Ringo and the well-dressed President Er Gou have the looks to stand up to even a femme fatale like Missouri.

Furthermore, even among these two individuals, the only one on the list, President Er Gou, is a human who possesses ship equipment.

Although Xiaobai wasn't sure if Ergou's wasted figure and beauty were due to the ship equipment, if Ergou was temporarily removed from the list because of the ship equipment, then Governor Ringo would be the last remaining face of human women.

Throughout human society.

The woman Xiaobai met.

It turns out that only Governor Ringo is a capable fighter.

It's really quite tragic.

When Xiaobai first met Duan Shuiliu, she had observed his appearance because she had a pretty good first impression of him.

Duan Shuiliu has a well-proportioned figure, fair skin, and beautiful appearance. Even with a stern face, she would be considered a rare beauty in human society. However, if the aesthetic standard were raised to the level of ship girls, even a woman of Duan Shuiliu's status would inevitably blend into the crowd.

So when Xiaobai first met Duan Shuiliu, her impression of Duan Shuiliu was just that she was a "pretty human girl", and she did not see her as a super beauty of ship girl level.

In fact, Xiaobai has never made a mistake in judging appearances.

however.

until now.

Xiaobai made a mistake.

because.

When Duan Shuiliu, who has an "ordinary appearance," smiles.

Wow, he's super handsome.

In a trance.

Stunned by Duan Shuiliu's stunning good looks, Xiao Bai felt an overwhelming sense of emotion, as if she had returned home, seen her mother, and been embraced by her mother.

Some people's beauty is like a rose facing the sun, stunning at all times.

Others are like flower buds waiting to bloom.

Normally, they are low-key and reserved, hiding deep beneath the grass.

Only in that one moment of blossoming.

It makes all the flowers pale in comparison.

Duan Shuiliu... perhaps that's her type.

Speaking of which, when Xiaobai first arrived at the newbie naval base, Tirpitz seemed to have similarly refreshed Xiaobai's aesthetic sense.

Tirpitz and Duan Shuiliu might have a lot to talk about.

I was in a daze for a moment.

Xiao Bai snapped out of his daze.

After regaining my senses, my vision cleared.

Duan Shuiliu was still squatting in front of Xiaobai, but unlike before, the loving smile on his face had disappeared, and his expression had returned to its previous bored look.

Xiao Bai looked at Duan Shuiliu with pity.

Xiao Bai and Duan Shuiliu looked at each other.

It was as if everything that had just happened was a dream that Xiaobai had.

"Sister Duan...did you just smile?"

"Hmm?" Duan Shuiliu tilted his head.

"Sister Duan just smiled like that, it was so beautiful!" Xiaobai gestured as she explained to Duan Shuiliu. "Sister Duan, why don't you smile more often? You look so beautiful when you smile!"

Duan Shuiliu looked at Xiaobai, seemingly not quite understanding.

"Sister Duan, smile again!" Xiaobai stretched out her hands to Duan Shuiliu.

"..." Duan Shuiliu.

"Smile again! Just once!" Xiaobai looked at Duan Shuiliu expectantly, coaxing him gently.

"..."

Duan Shuiliu's eyebrows twitched, and she forced a stiff smile.

"...This is a sneer, isn't it...? It's not like that..."
