Chapter 100: Discussing and Deciding

Several shipgirls watched Qin Ge hug his just‑obtained notebook, as if he had found a treasure, walking up to the second floor, and they couldn't help but smile slightly, but soon everyone turned their gaze to Ou Gen Qin Wang.

"Is it really as you said, Ou Gen Qin Wang?" Weineituo said to Ou Gen Qin Wang.

"Of course, my judgment should not be wrong. I think that Guanghui surely has feelings for our commander; after all, although our commander himself doesn't know how outstanding he is, we shipgirls are very clear about that." Ou Gen Qin Wang said confidently.

Ou Gen Qin Wang said confidently, "Although I was only summoned by the commander a few days ago, I'm sure you three definitely have a say."

"Hmm, the commander is really good—self‑disciplined, rigorous, knowledgeable, and also eager to help; aside from occasionally having some strange problems, he is simply a very, very excellent commander." Banrenma said with a smile.

"The master is indeed a very excellent master." Belfast also smiled.

Although Nengdai didn't speak, her expression showed that she still trusted Qin Ge very much.

"So, how could there be no Free Shipgirls wanting to join our fleet with such an excellent commander? Moreover, especially Guanghui‑type shipgirls, having seen many commanders, can clearly tell which one is excellent." Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"If that Guanghui senior were to join our fleet, that would also be a very good thing." Banrenma said to Ou Gen Qin Wang. "That way our fleet's strength could greatly increase, and with his guidance, our proficiency could rise very quickly."

Ou Gen Qin Wang glanced at Banrenma, "Too naive."

Belfast smiled and said, "I roughly understand Miss Ou Gen's meaning."

Ou Gen Qin Wang turned his head toward Belfast, "Oh, as expected, you're not bad at reading people's expressions, Head Maid—you figured out what I wanted to say so quickly."

"What exactly is it? Can't you just speak plainly? Always beating around the bush makes people feel headache." Weineituo said to the two of them.

"Ou Gen Qin Wang means that if Miss Guanghui joins our fleet, her position in the fleet will be very high—one reason is proficiency, another is her own experience, and finally her patient and gentle personality."

Belfast smiled and said, "The master's eyes can only see so much, but Miss Guanghui's radiance is too dazzling; she will surely occupy a large part of it."

"Heh, truly deserving of the title of the Royal's most perfect Head Maid, admirable." Ou Gen Qin Wang said to Belfast.

"What should we do then?" Banrenma also understood; after getting along for so long, she herself had just developed a fondness for Qin Ge.

Ou Gen Qin Wang said, "What else can we do? You people who like the commander, put in more effort." He continued, "You just said that, if Guanghui joins our fleet, it will bring our fleet stronger strength growth."

Considering the fleet's interests, letting her join our fleet is the best choice. But considering our own position, if she joins the fleet it will affect our status.

Ou Gen Qin Wang said, "So the best way now is for you to fill the commander's eyes with your own radiance, so he has no room left to see other shipgirls."

"Ah, but the commander's personality…" Banrenma said dejectedly.

"It's simple—just tell him directly, I like you, isn't that enough?" Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"Ah…" Banrenma's face instantly turned red, while Weineituo fell into thought; as for Belfast, she wore a full‑face smile, and Nengdai and Ling Bo remained expressionless.

"That's just how the commander's personality is; if you don't speak clearly, he will absolutely not take your feelings seriously. Because from my observation, he is basically clueless about matters of the heart." Ou Gen Qin Wang declared.

"You're right, if the master insists on pointing out a flaw, it's this aspect—it counts as his shortcoming. Although we've been together for a long time, his growth has always been very limited." Belfast said with a smile.

Saying this, Banrenma unconsciously nodded in agreement.

"So then?" Ou Gen Qin Wang looked toward Belfast, and she clearly heard the implication in Belfast's words.

"This heavy responsibility will be left to Miss Ou Gen to accomplish, after all, among us you're the only one suitable." Belfast said.

Belfast's saying this also, Nengdai and Ling Bo are first ruled out—one reason is that Nengdai herself is about the same level as Qin Ge in matters of feeling; second, they both are basically expressionless types, looking very stern.

As for Banrenma, she is more of the shy type; she can like someone, but directly confessing to him is something Banrenma could never do.

As for Weineituo, no need to say—her ideal is to let the Sardinian Empire's glory shine over the whole world, but she's not very adept at emotional matters either.

Belfast herself, although relatively capable, has always placed herself in the position of a maid; such an overstep she would still not do.

After looking around, only Ou Gen Qin Wang remains—she is not only resourceful and good at reading people's minds; having become familiar with Qin Ge in just two days, she would come up with such a straightforward approach.

"Huh?" Ou Gen smiled, "Putting such an important matter off onto someone who just joined the fleet two days—is that okay?"

"Actually, Miss Ou Gen is also very interested in the master, right? You can see the master's gaze can't escape me—that's a gaze of exploration and conquest." Belfast said.

"Indeed, you're quite sharp, Belfast." Ou Gen Qin Wang said, "I'm afraid that if you hadn't always kept yourself at the maid's level, the commander would probably have already been taken by you."

"That's hard to say for sure." Belfast gave a faint smile.

Ou Gen Qin Wang raised his head and looked at the stairs to the second floor, his eyes slightly narrowed, his finger touching his lips, his teeth unconsciously biting his own finger.

"Heh, you've successfully sparked my interest, so I don't mind becoming the fleet commander's emotional teacher, but ultimately how far the commander can learn depends on his own fate."

Listening to Ou Gen Qin Wang's words, Belfast smiled and performed a maid's salute to her, while Banrenma and Weineituo nearby looked impressed.

Nengdai remained as calm and unbothered as ever, while Ling Bo nearby tilted her head, looking at everyone with a hint of incomprehension.
