Chapter 721: Then Please Love Me a Little More

Commander, actually you can take a break; the whole banquet is dancing; this kind of money will make us feel heartache.

When it was Guanghui's turn, she said to Qin Ge, feeling a bit heartache.

Although he understood that Qin Ge didn't want to disappoint everyone, this was somewhat difficult for him.

Qin Ge smiled and said, "It's fine; just a few dances are no problem for me, and compared to your fighting on the battlefield, this is much easier for me."

Seeing that Qin Ge had made up his mind, Guanghui stopped trying to dissuade him and threw herself wholeheartedly into the dance; she didn't want Qin Ge's efforts to go to waste, so she wanted tonight to become a beautiful memory.

However, no matter how wonderful the night, it must end; at midnight, the Victory Banquet concluded smoothly and perfectly.

Although many ship girls hadn't danced with Qin Ge at the banquet, he promised them that if they ever attended another banquet, he would invite them first, giving everyone a share.

This reassured the others and made them look forward to the next banquet.

When it was one or two in the morning, the lights of the residents in the Royal Reception Hotel gradually faded, and the whole building fell silent.

Just then, the door of the room next to Qin Ge's quietly opened, and a figure stepped out.

After reaching the hallway and looking left and right, seeing that it was dim and empty, she felt at ease and walked to Qin Ge's door.

She didn't knock; instead, she turned the handle, and with a soft click of the lock, the figure gently opened Qin Ge's door a crack.

Seeing her familiar technique, it was clear she had done this more than once. After pushing the door open, a dim light spilled from the doorway; quickly, the figure slipped into Qin Ge's room and gently closed the door.

Since Qin Ge's room light was still on, the figure easily spotted him leaning against the bed.

Just as the figure looked at Qin Ge, he turned his head toward her and chuckled, "I say, Guanghui, you can actually open the door and come in openly; you don't have to sneak around like that every time."

"You are my lawfully wedded marriage ship; we're not having an affair, so is there any need to be so cautious?"

Guanghui heard Qin Ge's teasing, smiled, and approached, saying, "Commander should know that my specialty is night raids, no matter the meaning."

But why aren't you asleep yet? After dancing for so long, you should be tired, right?

Qin Ge chuckled, pointing to his legs sticking out from under the blanket, "Hey, it's not just because I danced for so long; my legs are a bit sore, so I wanted to massage them, but while doing so my waist started to ache."

Guanghui sat on the edge of the bed, feeling concerned, and touched Qin Ge's legs, asking, "Is it serious? If not, I'll go get a doctor."

Qin Ge quickly shook his head and told Guanghui, "It's just some muscle strain in the legs; no need to worry. Earlier, when I returned, I had Belfast get me some slow-release pills; now I just need to rub them in so I can walk tomorrow."

Upon hearing Qin Ge say that, Guanghui felt relieved and quickly said, "Then Commander, don't sit; take off your clothes, lie face down on the bed, and let me give you a massage."

Qin Ge smiled and said, "It's fine; I already massaged myself for a while before you came, so there's no need to bother you."

"What's the fuss about trouble or not trouble? The Commander becoming like this is also for our sake. Efforts are mutually proportional; since the Commander has done so much, how could giving him a massage be troublesome?" Guanghui said with a smile.

"All right." Qin Ge, who was also quite tired, didn't refuse further, and given his relationship with Guanghui, there was nothing to refuse about.

Thus, with Guanghui's help, Qin Ge took off his clothes, lay face down on the pillow, and began to enjoy her massage.

"Commander, after attending the Royal Victory Banquet tonight, what do you plan to do tomorrow?" Guanghui asked while massaging him, turning her head to speak.

"Tomorrow?" Qin Ge paused and said, "I plan to go to Mingshi for a trip, and then get some Oath Rings."

"Oh?" Guanghui chuckled and said, "So Commander, are you finally preparing to open a harem?"

Qin Ge's face turned red, but since he wasn't facing Guanghui, he quickly recovered.

"Cough, how could you say that? I'm merely responding to their feelings, giving their hearts something to rely on."

"And you know that, as of now, only you and I have had a relationship." Qin Ge said embarrassedly.

Guanghui's lips curled up and she said, "Oh, although the Commander spends most of his time sleeping with me now, for a long time before he slept with Xinong; didn't the two of you have something happen?"

Qin Ge turned his head, saw Guanghui's teasing smile, rolled his eyes, and said, "Between me and Xinong it's pure... well, at most I just held her while sleeping; I didn't do anything else."

Guanghui lightly laughed and said, "I never said the Commander did anything, so he doesn't need to be nervous; and even if he did, I have no objections."

"You..." Qin Ge shook his head, lay back down, and said, "Sorry, Guanghui. To find a true friend is a great fortune; to have a virtuous and worthy wife is a luxury, yet I now find myself craving even more."

Saying this, the response Qin Ge received was Guanghui's smile: "Commander, you brought up this issue long ago; I already gave you my clear answer then, but after all this time it seems you still hold it in your heart."

"Hmm... although you said that before, and I now accept your view, I still feel indebted to you in my heart." Qin Ge whispered.

"Hehe, it seems that in outsiders' eyes the brave and battle-savvy Commander occasionally has a childish side." Guanghui chuckled, though her hands didn't stop moving, "If the Commander truly feels unable to get past this, then in the future he can love me a little more in his feelings, and that would be enough."

"This..." Qin Ge couldn't help but laugh, "So this is your little scheme?"

"Hehe, the Commander is indeed very clever." Guanghui smiled and said, "While I am a ship girl, I am also a little woman."

Qin Ge turned his head to look at Guanghui's pouting expression, his heart eased, and he said, "I understand; no matter how many marriage ships I have in the future, you are the one I like best."

"I've noticed the Commander's sweet talk is getting better and better; indeed, this matter lies in practice, but I'll remember this line." Guanghui chuckled.

"Good."
