Chapter 608: Promise and Suggestion

After finally pulling the clinging Chai Jun off himself, Qin Ge felt rather helpless.

Upon meeting a girl who likes him, as a man he would naturally be happy, and moreover the key point is that this girl is very proactive, has an excellent figure, and a very good personality.

So Qin Ge essentially does not dislike Chai Jun, or rather he quite likes her. However, her overly cheerful personality and somewhat bold actions make Qin Ge feel a bit awkward.

Just by observing the reactions of the surrounding crowd, that slightly teasing gaze truly leaves Qin Ge somewhat speechless.

After finally calming Chai Jun down, Qin Ge brought her to the crowd and said to the several leaders, 'Everyone has finished summoning; next, you take your respective factions' research shipgirls and arrange their dormitories.'

Then arrange for someone to take them around the port area for a brief tour, and in the evening we will all go to the banquet hall to attend the banquet.

'Understood, Commander.' Enterprise smiled, 'You've been busy all day, Commander; if you have nothing else to do, you should rest now, otherwise you might not make it through tonight's banquet.'

Qin Ge's mouth twitched slightly, 'Why do I feel like even you, Enterprise, are taking a bit of schadenfreude?'

'No, how could I possibly be gloating? Commander, you must have misread me; I'm just concerned about you.' Enterprise said solemnly, then without giving Qin Ge any time to respond, she brought a curious-looking Seattle and left the office area.

'This...' Qin Ge watched Enterprise walk away, involuntarily opening his mouth.

'Hehe, Commander, I think Enterprise is right, so I'll take this opportunity to rest; I'll first take Auguste to the dormitory, then we'll meet tonight.' Prince Ou Gen Qin Wang said with a meaningful tone, then smiled and left with Auguste.

'Tsk.' Qin Ge clicked his tongue helplessly, looked at the others, and said, 'Then you all head back as well; we'll see each other tonight.'

'Yes, Commander.'

Except for Tiancheng, who is the secretary ship, everyone else quickly left the office area without exception. Of course, when Chai Jun left, her habit of taking three steps back while looking over her shoulder made Qin Ge find it somewhat amusing.

'Hehe, my lord, it's obvious that Chai Jun likes you; does this count as love at first sight?' After the others had walked away, Tiancheng said with a smiling gaze.

Qin Ge sighed, 'Someone likes me, I'm naturally happy, but Chai Jun is too enthusiastic; her enthusiasm is so overwhelming I don't know how to respond.'

'Hehe, then my lord, how do you compare Chai Jun with Akagi?' Tiancheng asked with a smile.

Qin Ge quickly shook his head, 'They are fundamentally not the same type, and each one, individually, is a type I find rather difficult to deal with.'

'Oh, then what type does my lord prefer?' Tiancheng asked, quite interested.

'Well, like Guanghui and Tiancheng—gentler, more considerate types.' Qin Ge said with a laugh, 'Cough, actually deep down I am still a rather traditional Donghuang man.'

'My lord saying that, does it count as praise for Tiancheng?' Tiancheng smiled even more happily.

'Of course, how could it not be.' Qin Ge said while walking toward the office with Tiancheng, 'Tiancheng is so gentle and understanding, and she helps me greatly, just like a capable wife.'

'A woman of this type, any normal man could not possibly ignore.'

'Hehe, with my lord's praise like this, Tiancheng will still feel proud.' Tiancheng said with a smiling gaze, the joy in her heart fully reflected in her expression.

Qin Ge chuckled, reached out and took Tiancheng's hand, 'Actually, to be frank, my personality has been changed too much by you all and Guanghui; if it were back in my earlier days, I actually had hardly any pursuit of love.'

'Before I came to this world, my greatest wish was to devote my life to my homeland's national defense cause. Back then, love seemed to me like an extremely extravagant desire.'

'After arriving in this world, although I have been accompanied by you lovely girls, I have actually focused more on how to return home or on daily battles.'

'But gradually, influenced by your actions and changed by the surrounding environment, I seem to have gradually abandoned my original dream, becoming attentive to my surroundings and to you.'

'My lord's changes, Tiancheng has actually been monitoring them all along. Moreover, Tiancheng is also changing together with my lord; now her body has improved greatly, all thanks to my lord's constant reminders.'

Qin Ge pinched Tiancheng's hand; the soft touch made him especially fond, saying, 'You must always pay attention to your health—you are my most important left and right arm. Once your health is restored, I will personally place that oath ring in the office onto your hand.'

Tiancheng's eyes widened in surprise, then she somewhat excitedly said, 'So this is my lord's promise to me?'

Qin Ge nodded, gave a self-deprecating laugh, and said, 'As long as you don't mind my being fickle, that's fine.'

Upon hearing Qin Ge's words, Tiancheng couldn't help but chuckle, 'Hehe, my lord is joking; actually Tiancheng doesn't mind my lord being fickle at all, and sometimes even wishes my lord were more fickle.'

'Ah?' Qin Ge opened his mouth wide in the corridor, looking at Tiancheng in astonishment.

Tiancheng smiled, 'The meaning represented by the oath ring, and the emotional changes toward my lord after accepting the oath, are actually highly beneficial to the development of our port area.'

'Therefore, my lord, Tiancheng would like to make a simple request here: if you like a shipgirl from the port area, give her the oath ring.'

'If the port area's supplies are insufficient to purchase it, then my lord can simply have whoever wants the oath ring gather the needed red points themselves.'

'Then, by expanding the surrounding sea area and obtaining technology from the Siren outposts, our chances will greatly increase. This will allow our port area's strength to develop more quickly, and it will be easy to open sea lanes in all directions.'

Qin Ge was left speechless, 'Well, no wonder it's Tiancheng; even something like the oath ceremony can be calculated by you so "clearly".'

Tiancheng smiled, 'So my lord, what do you think of these?'

'Well, it's good, but I still need to think about it further.' Qin Ge hurriedly said.

'Hehe, no rush; after all, we are currently in this Siren tide. Once we safely get through it, my lord can make a final decision later, and that's fine.' Tiancheng said with a smiling gaze.

Qin Ge opened his mouth but said nothing, then brought Tiancheng to the office to continue the unfinished work from this morning.

When the work was finished, the sky had gradually darkened. Thus the two left the office, returned to the dormitory, and prepared for the upcoming banquet.
