Chapter 99: Ou Gen Qin Wang's Intuition

Oh, Guanghui is the bodyguard that the Prince of Wales Dean found for us, and she is also a shipgirl who returned from the front line, possessing very rich combat experience.

Qin Ge saw Ou Gen Qin Wang asking, so he explained to her.

Oh, a shipgirl who returned from the front line? And she was personally recommended by the Prince of Wales? Ou Gen Qin Wang looked at Guanghui with interest and said.

Iron Blood's Ou Gen Qin Wang? Greetings. Guanghui was not at all angered by Ou Gen Qin Wang's tone, but spoke very calmly.

Tsk. Ou Gen Qin Wang clicked her tongue lightly; facing Guanghui's calm attitude, she found it hard to say anything else, so she said, "Hello."

At that moment, Belfast also saw Guanghui, smiled, and gave her a maid's salute, saying, "Greetings, Miss Guanghui."

Hello, Belfast. Guanghui said with a smile.

After all, both of them are shipgirls of the Royal system, so their greeting is still quite friendly.

However, when it came to Banrenma, she was obviously a bit shy, so she lightly ran to Qin Ge's side.

"Commander, could you also introduce me to that senior Guanghui?" Banrenma whispered in Qin Ge's ear.

After hearing that, Qin Ge felt a bit doubtful, and Banrenma seemed to notice his doubt, saying to him again, "I see the senior here, but I lack the courage to go up and greet her."

Qin Ge smiled faintly; Banrenma, who usually seemed very lively and cheerful, unexpectedly had this side as well.

However, I hadn't noticed before, because every time it was him bringing the shipgirls over to introduce themselves to Banrenma.

So he took Banrenma's hand and said to Guanghui, "Guanghui, let me introduce you: this is my current fleet's light aircraft carrier, Banrenma. She is also a member of your Royal side, just born a bit later."

Upon hearing Qin Ge's introduction, Guanghui immediately understood Banrenma's situation, and she smiled at Banrenma, saying, "Hello, Banrenma."

"Hello, senior Guanghui." Banrenma replied quickly, though her manner seemed a bit hurried.

Qin Ge smiled and said, "Don't be nervous; Guanghui's personality is still very gentle."

"Thank you, Commander." Banrenma said.

As for the remaining Ling Bo and Nengdai, both aren't very talkative, so they simply nodded at Guanghui, which counted as a greeting.

After Guanghui had greeted everyone, she said to Qin Ge, "Commander Qin Ge, I've already gotten to know your fleet, and today we've also chatted a lot, so it's about time for me to take my leave."

"Huh..." Qin Ge said to Guanghui, "Why the rush to leave? What are you doing? I still have many questions I'd like to ask you."

Guanghui smiled and said, "We still have a long time ahead to cooperate, so why not leave these for later on our journey?"

"Yeah, that's true, I'm really bothering you." Qin Ge said to Guanghui.

"It's fine." After saying that, Guanghui smiled and nodded at the others, then headed toward the door.

Seeing this, Qin Ge hurriedly followed, saw Guanghui to the front of her house, said goodbye, and then returned.

Just after Qin Ge returned to his room, several people gathered around him, but the ones with the strongest reaction were Weineituo and Ou Gen Qin Wang.

"Commander, do you know why the Prince of Wales sent Guanghui to protect you?" Ou Gen Qin Wang asked.

"Didn't I tell you that yesterday?" Qin Ge asked doubtfully.

"No, you said yesterday that the Prince of Wales would send someone to protect you, but you didn't say it would be Guanghui." Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"What's wrong with Guanghui? Does she have a problem?" Qin Ge wondered.

"No, but my intuition tells me that Guanghui's purpose isn't just to protect you so simply." Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

"Ah?" Qin Ge became even more puzzled, "Not just protecting me—what else could I have? Could she be trying to siphon off mission commission rewards from me? After all, she's a frontline shipgirl, so she shouldn't be lacking in resources, right?"

"And even if she wanted those mission resources, it wouldn't be a problem for me, since I'm not relying on commissions to accumulate resources; the most important thing is to accumulate combat experience."

Ou Gen Qin Wang smiled faintly; she felt that as a commander she could be shrewd and intimidating at times, but on certain issues she turned out to be remarkably blunt.

Just like when she lectured on the importance of battlefield movement in today's tactics class, that strong confidence and grand vision made Ou Gen Qin Wang herself deeply agree.

But now, when faced with the issue of Guanghui, her commander suddenly seemed a bit dense.

"What I mean is, Guanghui should be a free shipgirl, right? And if she really knows the Prince of Wales, then her proficiency must be very high, possibly even reaching level 100."

"Such a high-proficiency shipgirl usually maintains a rather aloof attitude. Even though Guanghui's temperament is gentle, when meeting a commander for the first time, she should also keep a corresponding distance, right?"

"But when we were coming back, seeing you, the commander, chatting so happily with her, it made people re-estimate why she's here and what her purpose is."

Ou Gen Qin Wang narrowed her eyes, pointed a finger at her own lips, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, perhaps this Guanghui has feelings for you, Commander."

"Huh?!" Qin Ge stared in shock at Ou Gen Qin Wang before him, recalling Guanghui's earlier figure, and involuntarily swallowed, "You say Guanghui has feelings for me—what kind of feelings?"

Ou Gen Qin Wang couldn't help but lift a hand to her forehead; this commander of hers is truly a gem. The few shipgirls nearby also understood what Ou Gen Qin Wang meant, but hearing Qin Ge's response, they couldn't help but laugh.

"What I mean is, it's possible that Guanghui, upon seeing how outstanding you are as commander, would want to become your shipgirl." Ou Gen Qin Wang said, looking at Qin Ge.

"Huh?!" Qin Ge grew even more doubtful, "No way, you must have miscalculated. Aside from lecturing tactics a bit better, I have no strengths whatsoever."

"As a fully proficient shipgirl who has long been stationed on the front line, having seen so many outstanding commanders, how could she take a liking to someone like me, a mere novice commander?"

Ou Gen Qin Wang finally understood why Qin Ge had been so doubtful earlier; it turned out that this commander of hers wasn't just blunt in some aspects, but completely clueless in others.

"It seems we need to put the commander's emotional intelligence training on the schedule." Ou Gen Qin Wang said to the somewhat puzzled Qin Ge, though the look in her eyes was clearly teasing.
