My mobile game wife came knocking.

Forget it, I won't think about it too much. I'll make time to go home and visit tomorrow.

Chapter 82 The First Night with the Company

Because the company claimed that its culinary skills were passed down from the goddess of the kitchen, one can imagine how its employees behaved once they entered the kitchen.

In the end, Ye Ming cooked the dinner all by himself.

Because Ye Ming had already appeased Fu Hua by promising to buy her a ring at a jewelry store the next day, and because of the company's understanding, the three of them had a very pleasant dinner together.

After dinner, after clearing away the dishes, Ye Ming, under the pretext of wanting to spend some time with Lafite since they hadn't seen each other in a long time, openly pulled Qiye into his bedroom.

In the bedroom, Enterprise sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Laffey's peaceful and lovely sleeping face, and said with some emotion: "I remember that when the Commander first disappeared, Laffey was very sad. She couldn't even sleep well. Her little face would be all scrunched up when she fell asleep, and she was often awakened by nightmares."

Enterprise gazed at Laffey's peaceful sleeping face and gently stroked her hair: "Indeed, only where the Commander is is everyone's true haven, and only by the Commander's side can everyone truly feel at ease."

Hearing what the company said, Ye Ming, who was sitting next to the company, was silent for a moment before smiling wryly and saying, "To be honest, company, hearing you say that puts a lot of pressure on me."

How should I put it?

"I was born into an ordinary family, had an ordinary birth, an ordinary upbringing, an ordinary graduation, and then an ordinary job. I wasn't rich, but I wasn't poor either. If nothing unexpected happens, this will be my whole life."

"But because of the sudden appearance of the girl in the game, my ordinary life has gone astray."

To be honest, when Ye Ming first met Raffi and confirmed Raffi's identity, he felt Raffi's affection for him. Besides being moved and shocked, he was also secretly pleased.

After being taken advantage of by Keqing, it's unrealistic to say that he immediately developed a deep and unforgettable love. To be honest, the reason he accepted Keqing so quickly, besides his sense of responsibility in the game, was also because he was lusting after the girl's body.

As time went by and they spent more time together, Ye Ming gradually sensed Ke Qing's feelings for him, who was willing to abandon her reserve and try to please him. He also saw Fu Hua, who had compromised and changed a lot in order to stay by his side, and he felt the ship girls' unreserved trust and dependence on him...

Such feelings are something no one would want to betray.

Can……

"The Royal Navy's ship girls, the Sakura Empire's girls, the Eagle Union's girls, the Iron Blood's girls..."

"In the world of Azur Lane, there are over five hundred ship girls..."

"When I think about how many girls might come into this world in the future, come to my side, trust me without reservation, and rely on me, I can't help but wonder, can I take care of them all? Can I bring happiness to everyone?"

"Enterprise, you should know about the game, right? Reality is not a game. People's energy is limited. I don't know if I can still fulfill everyone's wishes and bring happiness to everyone in reality, just like in the game."

Upon hearing this, Enterprise turned her head and looked at Ye Ming as if he were a fool, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about, Commander? Even in the game, the Commander hasn't been able to fulfill everyone's wishes."

The company counted on its fingers one by one: "Yorktown doesn't have a ring, Saratoga doesn't have a ring, Bumblebee doesn't have a ring, Cheshire doesn't have a ring, Pinghai doesn't have a ring, Noshiro doesn't have a ring, and Yukikaze doesn't have a ring either..."

"There are many ship girls who want to get the Commander's Ring, and even more ship girls who like the Commander, but out of all these ship girls, very few can actually get the ring."

Ye Ming remained silent. In Azur Lane, rings require real money; marrying over 500 ship girls means needing over 500 rings, and he certainly wasn't willing to spend that much.

"There are many ship girls in the port who can sortie, but there are also many ship girls who rarely or never have the opportunity to sortie. Some ship girls have neither the opportunity to sortie nor the opportunity to exercise, nor have they ever served as secretary ships. Commander, can you say that you will grant their wishes?"

"..."

Ye Ming was speechless.

Enterprise gently held Ye Ming's hands: "But Commander, even so, Enterprise can tell you with certainty that even if we don't get the ring, even if our wish isn't fulfilled, as long as the Commander is still in the port, as long as we stay in the port where the Commander is, we can feel at ease, and we can be happy."

"Whether it's incomprehensible or absurd, ship girls are inherently unreasonable beings. As long as they aren't disliked by their commanders, they don't care about the opinions of others."

"Why don't I have a ring? When can I become the commander's secretary ship? When will I have a chance to sortie? These thoughts don't necessarily mean that everyone wants to have something happen with the commander. Of course, if the commander wants it, he certainly won't refuse. What everyone really wants is to gain the commander's recognition and to be looked at by the commander more."

"This kind of trouble is because the commander is in the port, because I can see the commander, so I have expectations, so I feel at ease. It's a happy trouble."

"But if one day the Commander starts appearing in the port less and less, the end of the ship girls will come. Suspicion, unease, panic, and even fear will arise. When the Commander finally disappears completely and never appears again, the port will lose its backbone and fall apart instantly. The ship girls' happiness, troubles, and wishes will all become meaningless."

"So, Commander, don't worry about whether you can bring happiness to everyone, because for everyone, the Commander himself means happiness."

"If the commander feels guilty, if the commander feels sorry, then when a new ship girl comes to him, there is no need to apologize. Just cheer up and give the ship girl a hug, make a promise that you will not suddenly disappear and that you will always keep her by your side. That is the best promise you can make to the ship girl and will bring her happiness."

"..."

After listening to the company's words, Ye Ming remained silent for a long time, so long that the company began to wonder if Ye Ming had fallen asleep, when Ye Ming suddenly moved.

He stretched out his arms and pulled the company into his embrace, holding it tightly. After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice, "Company, I'm sorry, but this time, I will never leave again."

"Ah."

The woman's voice trembled slightly. She opened her eyes wide, trying hard to hold back her tears, and after a long while, she said softly, "Then, let's say hello again."

"The second Yorktown-class ship, Enterprise, reporting."

"Commander, I've finally found you!"

Chapter 83 Let's Transform the Enterprise into the Shape of a Commander

Ye Ming hugged the company, and the two talked for a while. Ye Ming, who had been busy for the past two days and had exhausted a lot of energy, was a little sleepy and couldn't help but yawn.

"Commander, are you tired? If you are, go to sleep."

The company noticed Ye Ming's tired appearance and spoke up.

"Ah."

There was no need to put on a brave face in front of his own wedding ship. Ye Ming nodded and said, "I've been a bit busy these past few days and I am indeed a little sleepy."

Ye Ming paused for a moment, then asked, "Can the company sleep with me tonight?"

"Ah."

The company nodded, looking at Ye Ming, but remained motionless for a long time.

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment before he remembered that the company hadn't brought any luggage when they arrived, so naturally, they didn't have any pajamas either.

Although he really wanted to pretend he knew nothing and admire Enterprise's adorable appearance without pajamas, he couldn't actually do anything in front of the little girl with Laffey around. He would only suffer in silence. So, after thinking for a moment, Ye Ming considerately said, "Enterprise didn't bring pajamas, did she? Can you wear Keqing's for now? I just bought them a while ago, and I haven't worn them yet after washing them."

"Ah."

Enterprise nodded, watching Ye Ming open the wardrobe and rummage through it, then asked knowingly, "Who is Keqing? Is she, like Fu Hua, also the Commander's newlywed wife?"

"Well, I guess so, but to be honest, Keqing and Fu Hua are a bit different."

Ye Ming pulled out his pajamas, closed the closet door, and handed them to Enterprise: "Fu Hua and I are ordinary people born and raised in this world. Ke Qing is a bit like you; she's a girl from the game who only recently came to our door."

Is Fu Hua an ordinary person?

Upon hearing Ye Ming's words, the company looked at him strangely, opened its mouth to speak, but after thinking for a moment, it ultimately said nothing.

Ye Ming, who was changing clothes, didn't notice Enterprise's strange gaze. As he took off his coat, he asked Enterprise, "Speaking of which, Enterprise, don't you have any luggage? How did you find me?"

"My luggage is still with my friend."

Enterprise looked at Ye Ming, who was changing clothes, and replied, "I accidentally spotted Laffey during the day when I was conducting reconnaissance with carrier-based aircraft. I guessed that the commander might be with Laffey, so I rushed over. Because I was in a hurry, I didn't have time to bring any luggage."

Because they didn't want Ye Ming to worry, the company didn't mention the blood-red spear that had suddenly appeared at the end of the sky.

"Speaking of which, I also know a girl named Keqing. I wonder if she is the same Keqing that the Commander knows."

Although they said that, the company had already confirmed Ke Qing's identity. Because they were husband and wife, they had intimate contact, which explained why Ye Ming's scent was on Ke Qing.

However, the company still has some doubts. Since Keqing is a girl in the game, are Ganyu and Hutao, who know Keqing and seem to have a close relationship with her, also girls in the game, like Keqing?

The company vaguely remembered that Gan Yu once said that Liyue International's ultimate goal was to find someone who had suddenly disappeared.

Could this person be the commander?

Furthermore, why would Hu Tao secretly follow Ke Qing on her own, without telling Gan Yu?

The relationship between the three is quite delicate. They seem as close as sisters, but each of them seems to have their own hidden agenda. The company thinks this is likely related to Ye Ming, but it doesn't understand why Ke Qing and the other two are like this.

"You also know a girl named Keqing?"

Upon hearing what the company said, Ye Ming, who was changing clothes, paused for a moment and smiled, "That's perfect. Ke Qing should be back tomorrow. Once you see her, you'll know if she's the Ke Qing you know."

Ye Ming felt a little guilty as he said this.

"Alright."

The company agreed, thought for a moment, and did not tell Ye Ming about Ke Qing, Gan Yu, and Hu Tao.

After all, interfering in other people's business is a very annoying thing. The company didn't know what the situation was with the three of them, so it simply let them do whatever they wanted, as long as they didn't harm the commander.

Well, despite thinking that way, the company still felt it wasn't good to keep Ye Ming in the dark, especially considering the blood-red spear that shot down from the end of the sky during the day. The mysterious person behind it, who possessed such terrifying long-range sniping skills, posed a huge threat to Ye Ming, who was just an ordinary person, if they had malicious intentions.

The company believes that, given the lack of other partners in the port area and their limited resources, it must unite all forces that can be united in order to cope with the unknown threats.

After all, the commander's safety is the most important thing.

"Commander, can you bring Laffey with you tomorrow to help me move my luggage to my friend's place?"

All carrier-based aircraft were deployed for high-altitude reconnaissance, while the carrier itself and Laffey provided escort, thus protecting the commander's safety in case of danger.

After careful consideration, the company finally made this request.

Ye Ming naturally wouldn't refuse such a request.

"Okay, I'll go with you first thing tomorrow morning."

As they spoke, Ye Ming, who had already changed into his pajamas, nodded in agreement and casually turned off the lamp. "Alright, Qigong, you should change your clothes and rest too."

"Ah."

Although the lights were off, the bedroom wasn't completely dark. At least, the company could see Ye Ming lying on the bed, his gaze fixed on her.

Despite being a married ship, Enterprise had never experienced anything like this before in the port. She felt a little shy under the man's gaze, but since it was the commander's gaze, she hesitated for a moment and said nothing. She simply raised her hand and tucked a few strands of her long hair behind her ear. Then, under Ye Ming's gaze, she took off her outer clothes, quietly changed into her pajamas, lay down on the bed, and lay down next to Ye Ming.

"Aren't the pajamas a little small?"

Ye Ming noticed the way the company pulled at its chest when it lay down.

"Ah."

The company admitted, blushing. Pajamas are supposed to be loose, comfortable, and relaxing, but Keqing's pajamas were indeed a bit too tight for the company.

"Company, may I hug you?"

Ye Ming asked again.

"Ah."

In this situation, in this atmosphere, and upon hearing these demands, the company suddenly felt tense.

Ye Ming turned to the side, hugged the company's warm and soft body, smelled the faint fragrance emanating from the company, and took a deep breath.

Holding Ye Ming like this, Qigong felt nervous, shy, and somewhat expectant. Suddenly, she recalled a scene where she saw Taifeng talking to herself alone in the commander's office, and she remembered what Taifeng had said.
