It's time to give out the rings, Admiral!

"Darling, are you worried? Hehe, I sent Xiaofei a detailed telegram about what happened yesterday, right? Xiaofei should have already explained it to you, darling, right? Is there anything Xiaofei didn't mention?"

His wife's soft fingertips gently traced patterns on his palm, creating a ticklish sensation. Her beautiful face, so close to his, exuded a delicate fragrance, and her soft, aquamarine eyes sparkled with a beautiful starlight. Normally, faced with his wife's alluring expression and demeanor, the young man, whose lecherous nature had awakened since being led into adulthood by Glorious and his wife, would have been unable to resist becoming instantly aroused. However, at this moment, the young man's mind was completely occupied with the telegram sent by Lexington yesterday, which mentioned the discovery of a large area of ​​the sea covered by deep-sea miasma.

Although he was still quite inexperienced as a new admiral who had only recently become one, even though he had only been an apprentice admiral for a month, the young man knew that areas covered by deep-sea miasma would generate large quantities of deep-sea monsters. This was common knowledge in this world. Thinking back to yesterday when he was lying in bed enjoying the care of Phil and Unicorn, and even corrupting his own lovely younger sister, he was a little scared when his wife, Radiant, his cute sister-in-law, and Marani encountered such a thing at sea.

It's good that we passed through that area of ​​water smoothly. If we had been discovered by the deep sea and my wife and the others had to fight to protect me, or even get injured, I would have felt so guilty.

"Yes, of course I'm worried. Madam, you encountered so many deep-sea things at sea. What if you got injured? Of course I need to find out more about it and think of a solution. If I had known, I would have come back to pick up Xiaorou a little later. Xiaorou certainly wouldn't have minded waiting a little longer."

Her husband pouted slightly, looking a little aggrieved. His adorable little face made Lexington's heart, which was so soft it could only hold her husband, tremble. For two whole days, she hadn't been able to properly enjoy her beloved's warmth and scent while escorting ships at sea. The only time she saw him was when she received a telegram from Xiaofei saying that her beloved was sick with a fever. If it weren't for the need to maintain a certain image in front of her beloved, and the presence of so many annoying third wheels, she would have hugged him tightly and comforted him long ago.

A mature and gentle wife is good, but her gentleness and virtuousness are based on the premise that her beloved is by her side and she can feel his warmth at any time. Even a wife will become neurotic, irritable and easily angered if she cannot be with her beloved for a long time. What's more, she has only recently become his wife, who belongs to him alone. Two days is already long enough. If her beloved disappears again, she will definitely go crazy!

When she came to her senses, she realized that she had unconsciously kissed her husband's lips. Looking at her husband's slightly surprised expression, and with her beautiful crescent-shaped eyes curved, Lexington winked cutely at the boy.

"Hehe, there's nothing to worry about, darling. Although you might not remember, I have a lot of experience dealing with these kinds of things. In my opinion, this deep-sea impact will take at least another month to develop before it erupts. It's not too late to worry when we get back. Besides, I've already notified the maritime authorities in the nearby cities. Maybe by the time we get back, things will have been resolved?"

Volume 1, Chapter 449: What I Plan to Do

"Okay, honey, let's not dwell on this anymore. Even if it really was dangerous, after a whole night's sailing, we've left that dangerous area far behind. So let's not talk about these unpleasant things anymore. How about we talk about something else?"

Lexington's beautiful blue eyes shone with a soft, affectionate light. Looking at her husband's expression, she couldn't help but squeeze his fingers even tighter—fingers that gave her warmth, courage, and happiness.

The impact of the deep sea is indeed very dangerous. If not handled properly, it could cause significant damage to the coastal areas. However, Lexington did not want her beloved to worry about these things. She only wanted her beloved to be happy forever. As for what there was to worry about, she felt that she could handle everything for him. After all, she was Lexington, the most perfect wife in her beloved's eyes!

Moreover, even if she couldn't manage alone, she still had Yixian, her sister Guanghui, and everyone in the naval base. Even if everyone had their own ulterior motives towards her, their goal of protecting her and ensuring she could live a carefree life every day was still very unified. Of course, all of this was based on the premise that her beloved was still by her and everyone's side. Having already suffered once and lost her beloved for a whole year, she would absolutely not allow anything that could lead to her beloved leaving her side to happen again...

It has to be said that, as his most trusted secretary ship, whether it was Lexington's extremely gentle gaze or her gentle, water-like smile, listening to his wife's tender and clear voice, the young man unconsciously felt that many of his worries had dissipated.

He had no experience in handling such matters and didn't really want to waste time and effort thinking about something uncertain. Since his wife had said she could handle it well, he, a complete novice, should just leave everything to her. At worst, he could just be a mascot in the naval base...

!!!

Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?! Did I just think of something dangerous?!

"Well, alright then, what shall we talk about? By the way, where's Glorious? Why didn't Glorious come out with you, Madam?"

The most terrifying kind of change is the subtle, gradual one. The young man broke out in a cold sweat, realizing that he had unknowingly come up with the idea of ​​leaving all the troublesome matters to his wife and daughters. He felt a wave of fear wash over him.

He almost fell into the gentle embrace of his wife, Glorious, and his own girls; he almost missed his dream of becoming an excellent admiral. Wiping his forehead, which was not covered in sweat, the young man subconsciously straightened his back.

He thought he had overestimated the ability of his gentle wives to spoil the admiral, but he never expected that he had far underestimated their abilities, to the point that he almost prematurely entered the wonderful... no, terrifying life of a useless admiral.

"Hmm... Glorious should still be washing up in her room. She's been out at sea for two days, so she must be covered in dust. I took a shower before coming out to find you, darling. I just showered a little earlier than Glorious. She should come out to find us when she's done."

Lexington rested her soft, fragrant shoulder on the young man's shoulder. Amidst the envious gazes of countless fellow passengers behind her and facing the vast, azure sea, she seemed like a couple deeply in love. Lexington, somewhat intoxicated, rested her cheek on her husband's broad shoulder.

No, what do you mean by "like"? My darling and I are lovers! It's just that our relationship is much deeper than that of ordinary lovers. After all, I'm my darling's favorite wife! And my darling is my most important, most cherished, and most irreplaceable husband. Sigh, it's just a pity that I can't have my darling all to myself today. While I'm with Glorious Sister, I need to properly allocate the time I spend with my darling. I need to be generous, fair, and impartial, so that I can be the perfect secretary ship for my darling alone.

Her soft hair exuded a light and delicate fragrance. Hearing Lexington's sweet and languid voice, the young man noticed that his wife's beautifully textured hair still had a slight dampness, as if she had just finished taking a bath.

He looked intently at his wife's full, mature figure, encased in her beautiful dress, and then at the adoring look in her eyes as she gazed at him. Suddenly, he regretted listening to her and coming out for some fresh air alone. If he had stayed in the cabin, he might have been able to take a bath with his wife or Lasty first thing in the morning... cough...

"Hmm~ Darling, that look on your face means you're thinking about something naughty again! The bathtub on the ship is so small, we can't both go in together, or all the water will run out~ Besides, we shouldn't let you spend all this precious time on such things. How about we talk about our plans after we get to Tianshui and meet Xiaorou? What are you planning to do when we get there?"

With boundless affection, she pinched the boy's nose. Seeing through her husband's thoughts at a glance, Lexington playfully changed the subject. Although she also wanted to do more things with her beloved to strengthen their relationship, she knew that they were finally able to rest on the ship together. If they spent all their time doing *that* kind of thing, not only would her husband not be able to handle it, but he might also make his cold worse, which would break her heart!

"What happens after we return to Tianshui? We've already discussed it with everyone, so what else is there to say?"

"Don't be such a spoilsport. What we discussed before was something we'd all do together. What about you, darling? What do you want to do? Is there anything you particularly want to do?"

The young man paused for a moment. As for what to do after returning to Tianshui, he didn't seem to have thought about it carefully. The things he could think of on his own were just a few things. He really didn't know why his wife was so interested.

"As for what to do, after we get back, let Xiaorou meet her sisters-in-law first. After settling in, treat the neighbors and villagers to a meal to thank them for taking care of Xiaorou and me. After that, of course, we'll take you all to explore Tianshui properly. Although Tianshui isn't as developed as Jinchuan, it's still a bustling coastal city with plenty of attractions worth seeing..."

Volume 1, Chapter 450: The Distant View

"Didn't you all keep saying you wanted to see where I've lived this past year? Once we get there, I'll take my wife and you all on a proper tour."

"However, to be honest, I don't know much about Tianshui city, because I usually live in the town with Xiaorou. I'll probably have to ask Yuelin for help. Don't be fooled by how approachable and down-to-earth Yuelin is; she's a real heiress. I was even invited to her villa in the city before, and it was incredibly impressive."

The young man scratched his head. As for what would happen after arriving in Tianshui, there was no need to think too much about it. He would just take it one step at a time and let his wives have a good time in Tianshui. He would treat it as a vacation for them and make up for their hard work in searching for him over the past year.

After having had enough fun and stay here, we discussed selling the house. We'd take what we could and sell what we couldn't. Anyway, after taking Xiaorou to Jinchuan, we probably wouldn't have many opportunities to come back. Jinchuan is quite far from Tianshui, and we couldn't possibly keep going back and forth.

"Hehe, I'm really looking forward to it, darling~ Whew, it's been so long since we've had a vacation together like this~ The last time we had a vacation was when you asked me to get a makeover. When I came back after the makeover, you actually said I was back from maternity leave, even though I was still a virgin back then and you hadn't even given me a ring yet! You're so mean!"

Her bright eyes shimmered with tears, perhaps because the boy's words reminded her of those bittersweet memories that she cherished. Holding her husband's hand and linking arms with his, she pouted her moist, glistening lips. Seeing her beloved's cheeks visibly flush slightly, Lexington blinked, then smiled happily and gently curved her gentle, virtuous eyebrows.

"By the way, honey, how are you planning to tell Xiaorou about us? She'll be so surprised to hear that her brother has suddenly acquired such a large port and so many girls, right?"

The soft, sweet voice was almost cloying, especially since the words were coming from the noble and gentle Mrs. Lexington beside him. Listening to his wife's gentle words in his ear and feeling her soft body and warm temperature against him, the young man scratched his slightly embarrassed cheek and nodded.

Will Xiaorou be surprised? Of course she will! Putting aside Xiaorou, even I sometimes feel like I'm living in a beautiful dream I never want to wake up from, let alone Xiaorou who knows nothing about it! When we get to Tianshui and Xiaorou meets her beautiful and gentle sisters-in-law, she will be so surprised she won't be able to close her mouth! She might even be so shocked she won't be able to speak.

"I wonder if Little Rou will accept my existence and that of Guanghui and the others? Could it be that Little Rou wouldn't accept us strangers?"

"How could that be, Madam? You're overthinking it. Xiaorou will definitely like you all."

Upon hearing his wife's slightly worried words, the young man said, "Madam, you're overthinking it. Although Xiao Rou can be quite willful at times, leaving you helpless, she's mostly obedient and reasonable. Besides, with so many gentle, kind, beautiful, and capable sisters-in-law, she's overjoyed. How could she not accept them? And besides, Madam, you've already prepared so many gifts for Xiao Rou. Just give them all to her. Even if Xiao Rou is a little uncomfortable with having so many sisters-in-law, she'll definitely accept them happily."

Haha, speaking of Xiaorou, I do miss her a bit. I wonder if she ate and slept well during the month I was away. What if, when I get back, she really did find herself a brother-in-law like the joke I made with her before I left? ... Haha, how could that be? Xiaorou isn't that kind of girl.

As for myself, I might even cause Xiaorou to worry about how I am doing in Jinchuan all the time. Although I have indeed lived with Xiaorou for more than a year as her older brother, I am not a very good brother in some aspects. Take the most basic ability to earn money to support the family, for example. Although I can do tutoring or something with the knowledge I learned in school, if it weren't for Miss Zhuo's help, I probably wouldn't be able to earn much money in a poor coastal fishing village.

On the other hand, Xiao Rou is a renowned tailor in the town. Her handiwork is truly admirable. Unfortunately, Xiao Rou doesn't seem to intend to make it her main profession. She uses the money she earns from making clothes for others to buy herself new clothes or new items. The clothes I wore when I went to Jinchuan were all bought for me by Xiao Rou.

Having such a gentle and capable younger sister, I, as her older brother, really have no other desires. I just want to take good care of Xiaorou and let her live a happy life from now on. Putting everything else aside, just looking at the help and care Xiaorou has given me this year, I must do my best to fulfill that wish.

However, I can't take care of Xiaorou forever. She has her own life and her own choices. Xiaorou is so beautiful, a real little beauty in the making. When she grows up and becomes a graceful and beautiful woman, she will definitely meet a man she likes or who truly loves her. She will also inevitably encounter some scumbags who want to deceive her. I just need to help her screen which boys are truly trustworthy and which ones just want to play with her. When that time comes, she may not need her brother's care anymore.

Of course, there's also the issue of dowry. As her younger sister, even if she gets married, she should have a grand and dignified wedding. Now that she's not short of money, with such a large port area and girls as her support, she can guarantee that Xiao Rou will have no worries about food and clothing in the future. So, the groom doesn't ask for any dowry, and it doesn't matter if his family isn't well-off. His only requirement is that he treats Xiao Rou sincerely.

Volume 1, Chapter 451: Reasons for Disliking

Ha, this is nothing. Why am I thinking so much? What will happen to Xiaorou is her own choice in the future. What we need to do now is to let Xiaorou meet her beautiful sisters-in-law after we get to Tianshui, and then bring her to Jinchuan so that she won't have to worry about the livelihood of her brother and sister every day like she does now.

The sea breeze gently caressed the boy's clothes, causing him to unconsciously scratch the back of his head as he snapped out of his reverie. After thinking so much about Xiaorou, he finally understood the feelings of an old father. He had inadvertently let his thoughts wander so far, not only considering Xiaorou's future but also causing his wife to watch him in a daze for so long, which was truly inexcusable.

"It's alright, madam, I believe Xiaorou will like you."

The young man turned his head to face his wife, who was still as beautiful and charming as ever. He said with such certainty that he simply couldn't imagine Xiao Rou rejecting such a beautiful sister-in-law. After all, what sister-in-law wouldn't like a sister-in-law as beautiful and gentle as his wife and Lasty, who could consider everything for him?

With soft, gentle fingers, she straightened her husband's collar and smoothed down a tuft of hair that was sticking up on the boy's head. Holding her husband's arm tightly, she drew warmth from her beloved husband, the warmth that her dearest wife relied on for survival. With her eyes wide open, Lexington couldn't help but pout at her beloved husband, then sighed with a mixture of exasperation and amusement.

Of course, I wasn't worried that Xiaorou wouldn't accept me, because that was for sure, with so many rivals suddenly appearing... cough cough... I just wanted to subtly hint at it to my poor Xiaorou, to help her slow-witted brain finally catch on. Not only Xiaorou herself, but I, Guanghui, even Xiaofei and the girls at the naval base could all see that Xiaorou harbored feelings for me that weren't exactly sibling affection, okay? Only you, you little idiot, were still completely oblivious.

Sigh... I'm clearly just your secretary ship, right? Why do I even have to consider your feelings for my future sister-in-law? If I wasn't worried about upsetting you, you silly girl, I would have told you directly a long time ago. Why am I still having this headache?

"Sigh...you silly girl, what should I say to you? I mean, darling, have you ever thought about another possibility, like, little Rou might not like us because of you?"

For no reason, his wife playfully pinched the tip of his nose, and his face was warmed by her sweet breath. The young man scratched his head, feeling a little confused.

She dislikes you, Madam, because of me? That's impossible. Xiaorou isn't that kind of unreasonable girl. Although she can be quite stubborn when she's anxious, I really can't think of any reason why she would dislike you, Madam. However, since you've said so, perhaps there's something I haven't considered? If you said that, then you must have your reasons…

"However, Madam, I really can't think of any reason why Xiaorou wouldn't like you. You're so gentle and beautiful, and you take such good care of people, how could Xiaorou not like you?"

The young woman was puzzled, but looking at her husband's confused face, a hint of helplessness crept onto her lips, which were full of love and tenderness. She gently poked his forehead and turned her face away to think for a moment. She wanted her beloved to understand her good intentions, but she couldn't let him worry about the reality that was about to happen. This was really a difficult task. Hmm... it seems that she could only resort to a little drastic measures. Yes, that's what she would do.

"Hmm... Since you still don't understand, just imagine what it would be like if Xiaorou had someone she liked? Imagine Xiaorou having a lover, imagine Xiaorou revolving around that person all day long, and then imagine Xiaorou getting married and having children, and even inviting you to their wedding~"

Lexington's stunning face held a hint of cunning and a captivating allure. After listening to his wife's words, the young man pondered for a moment and then calmly began to imagine what his wife had suggested.

First, imagine that after returning to Tianshui, Xiaorou really finds someone from somewhere and claims to be her boyfriend, and then seems to have forgotten about her brother, spending all her time around that person, while she can only watch helplessly from the sidelines.

He watched them become lovers, watched them set a wedding date, watched himself be invited to Xiaorou's wedding, watched Xiaorou put on a pure and beautiful wedding dress and become a beautiful bride, and finally saw Xiaorou lying in the hospital with a newborn baby in her arms. The person standing in front of her was not him, but Xiaorou's brother-in-law whom she had found from somewhere. Suddenly, the young man felt his blood pressure rise.

"Have you figured it out? How is it? What are your thoughts, darling?"

"Boyfriend my foot! Break his legs and make him crawl out of here!"

His brows furrowed deeply, and the boy gritted his teeth in anger. Thinking about the scenes he had just imagined, he felt like he almost had a heart attack! His Xiaorou was so kind and lovely. If anyone dared to corrupt Xiaorou and turn her into the kind of person he had just imagined, he would find the culprit, break their legs, and throw them into the sea to feed the sharks!

The woman beside him smiled as she gently patted the young man's chest, which was pounding with anger. After taking a couple of deep breaths, the young man was able to calm his feverish mind.

Although it was just his own imagination, he had just experienced firsthand what it felt like for fathers who were about to marry off their daughters. However, if he thought about it more closely, he felt that it didn't quite feel right. Why did he feel so angry when he thought about Xiao Rou marrying someone else? Why did he feel so angry when Xiao Rou gave birth to her baby and the person standing next to her wasn't him? He didn't quite understand.

"Hehe, how about that? Now you know why Little Rou doesn't like us, right?"

Volume 1, Chapter 452: A Beautiful Day

"Hehe, how about that? Now you know why Little Rou doesn't like us, right?"

The beautiful wife blinked gently, her gaze fixed on her beloved husband's face, which seemed to have suddenly come to a realization. Her bright, watery eyes revealed a gentle smile and a heart-stirring affection and dependence. Lexington then gently rubbed her smooth, rounded chin against the boy's shoulder.

Judging from your expression, you've probably experienced the same feeling as Xiaorou. Although you always act like a serious, caring older brother when talking about Xiaorou, after being taken care of by her for over a year, I don't believe that my fickle friend really only wants to be Xiaorou's cheap older brother.

Now that my dear can get angry and jealous, it means that my dear definitely has some feelings for Xiaorou. If that's the case, then when we get to Tianshui, there will be a lot more room for maneuver. Whether we let Xiaorou handle it herself, or we and others fan the flames from behind, as long as it can be resolved peacefully, that's all that matters.

Scratching his head helplessly, the somewhat troubled young man nodded to his lovely wife beside him. After going through so many layers of imagination, he finally understood why his wife was so worried.

Just as he was angry that Xiaorou had inexplicably brought him a brother-in-law, he would probably feel the same way if Xiaorou knew he had also brought home a group of sisters-in-law. If it was just because she was uncomfortable with so many beautiful sisters-in-law, that would be fine. But if Xiaorou was worried that having so many sisters-in-law would take away her brother's affection and make her hostile towards his wife and the others, then that would be a real problem.

"Hmm... I understand, Madam, but that makes things a bit difficult. What if Xiaorou really doesn't want to accept you?"

The young man frowned in distress. If his wife hadn't reminded him in time, he probably wouldn't have remembered all the intricacies of the situation even after arriving in Tianshui. Thinking about how Xiaorou's relationship with his daughters might not be harmonious after they returned, he, as her brother, husband, and admiral, would be caught in the middle, carefully managing the relationship between his sister-in-law and his brother-in-law, suffering from both sides. He suddenly felt a sense of despondency and despair.

The boy's pitiful expression was reflected in his wife's beautiful eyes, stimulating Lexington's overflowing maternal love and doting affection, which she felt even when facing her beloved husband. She couldn't help but want to hold her darling close to her chest and comfort him. With a pout, Lexington stroked his head and couldn't help but say coquettishly, "Hmm~ Don't worry so much, darling, you still have me! It's okay, I'll handle our relationship with Xiaorou, darling, don't worry."

Lexington smiled gently as she ran her fingertips across her husband's forehead. As her husband's perfect secretary and his beloved Mrs. Lexington, she had plenty of ways to manage the relationship between Little Rou and them. Didn't Little Rou also like her husband? That would be easy, wouldn't it? Just follow the rules of the naval base and share some of her husband's affections with Little Rou. She had already figured out how to talk to Little Rou and how to get along with her after she met her.

As for whether Xiaorou would be unwilling, that was not within her consideration. If reasoning with Xiaorou and using special methods still didn't work, it meant that Xiaorou's feelings for her beloved weren't that strong. It wouldn't be a bad thing if it didn't work out. Otherwise, if Xiaorou hurt her beloved, it would be too late to take action then.

"Really, madam?! You have a way to handle this?"

The young man's eyes widened in surprise. If his wife said she could handle it, then it must be a sure thing! Every time he encountered something difficult to solve, his wife would easily resolve it for him. He had instinctively trusted his wife and the girls in his family, and he was almost used to the feeling of having someone to rely on and not having to use his own brain to think.

"Hmm~ Don't worry, darling, your wife has already come up with a plan."

Her incredibly soft breasts pressed against her beloved husband's arm without any obstruction. Feeling the reassuring warmth and scent emanating from him, Lexington playfully lifted her face and gently kissed the unsuspecting earlobe of the young man beside her. Her curvaceous and shapely body leaned tightly against her husband. Gazing at the undulating waves in the distance, she narrowed her gentle and charming light blue eyes, and suddenly waved playfully at the sky not far away.

Lexington waved gently, but the sudden gesture confused the young man. Looking in the direction his wife was gazing, he saw only a clear blue sky with a few white clouds drifting by and an endless sea. Puzzled, he scratched his head and asked his wife, "Madam, who are you waving to? Is there something over there?"

"Hehe, um, it's Jiajia's carrier-based aircraft, darling. I guess they sent it to spy on what I and her beloved brother-in-law are doing~"

She had long noticed a small, dark figure observing her from beside the clouds on the horizon. Hearing her husband's question, Lexington smiled and nodded at the boy. Seeing her husband's enlightened expression, she slightly curved her lips, as if she had thought of something. Suddenly, she raised her arms and wrapped her snow-white arms around the boy's neck, then directly pressed her luscious red lips to her husband's lips.

The passionate kiss was so beautiful that the passengers watching this enviable couple felt so full they couldn't eat anything else. Lexington reluctantly released the boy, who was caught off guard by her sudden kiss.

She gently licked her moist, glistening lips, watching the carrier-based aircraft belonging to Gaga sway unsteadily in mid-air not far away, as if its pilot had suffered some unimaginable shock. She swallowed the saliva she had just snatched from her husband's mouth, and Lexington felt that today would truly be an incredibly wonderful and pleasant day.

And coincidentally, behind the boy and Lexington, accompanied by the soft clatter of high heels on the deck, another gentle and equally melodious voice rang out.

"Admiral, Sister Lexington, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Volume 1, Chapter 453: Days of Rest

"Admiral, Sister Lexington, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

A soft, clear voice gently sounded from behind. The young man, still somewhat dazed from his wife's sudden kiss, turned around along with Lexington, who was in a good mood after teasing Jiajia.

Her soft, smooth, silver-white hair was elegant and noble, her flawless white face was radiant and bright, and her snow-white dress was so beautiful and alluring. Her clear, ethereal blue eyes were fixed on her beloved admiral and respected sister Lexington. She had somehow appeared on the deck, and the noble woman in front of him, who seemed like a goddess, gave the somewhat surprised boy a captivating and graceful smile.

If Lexington's beauty is delicate and gentle, like a gentle breeze in March, then Illustrious's beauty, as my first true ship girl and lover since coming into this world, is elegant and noble, like a pearl emerging from the water, beautiful and moving.

The passengers on deck were once again stunned. They had already been so surprised by the arrival of such a beautiful woman, and now another woman, equally noble and beautiful, had arrived. All that remained in their hearts was envy and incomprehension.
