In fact, if the Prince of Wales truly fell into the deep sea, everyone present would know what the right choice was. Especially after they had the Admiral, even if they found it hard to act against their former companion who had already fallen into a Deep Sea Shipgirl, they would not hesitate to take action if that person posed a threat to the Naval Base and the Admiral's safety.
However, before it reached that point, none of them could bring themselves to reach that conclusion. Veneto was different; beneath her Loli appearance lay a mature and meticulous heart. She would consider all possible variables for the future and make the most correct choice.
On the other hand, after Chuyang asked that question, Veneto would openly express her thoughts, which was also a way of showing her feelings to Chuyang!
Despite Veneto repeatedly calling Chuyang useless and somewhat disregarding her as an Admiral, it still meant something that after four years apart, she would not hesitate to call out "Admiral" upon seeing Chuyang for the first time. It indicated that she still regarded Chuyang as her Admiral and acknowledged her as such.
Thus, her candid remarks were simply a way of telling Chuyang what kind of person she was, even if it might temporarily lead to misunderstandings or even resentment from the Admiral. But in the future? With this experience as a foundation, the Admiral would completely understand what kind of person she was, allowing her to avoid greater misunderstandings when making decisions later on.
To put it simply, Veneto wanted to present her truest self in front of the Admiral so that Chuyang could fully understand her and prevent too many misunderstandings and troubles in their future lives.
When Chuyang listened to Richelieu's reminder and finally smiled again,
Although Veneto claimed not to care about others' or even the Admiral's opinions of her, she felt a little touched inside. Following an Admiral who understood her was certainly better than being with one who looked down on her!
Thinking this way, Veneto's previously tense little face relaxed slightly as she stirred her freshly brewed cup of coffee with a spoon and handed it to Chuyang.
"Um!"
After taking a light sip of coffee, an incredibly bitter taste suddenly burst in Chuyang's mouth, causing her brows to furrow involuntarily.
"This is so bitter."
Whether in his past life or this one, Chuyang has never been fond of coffee. He would rather spend that money on a few good tea leaves and brew a nice pot of tea to enjoy. So, in places where he had no choice but to drink coffee, he usually added a lot of milk and sugar. This was the first time he had ever tasted pure bitter coffee.
"Bitter? I don't think so. Black coffee itself combines the aroma, sweetness, acidity, and bitterness of coffee; it's raw yet robust, deep and intriguing. However, Admiral, if you really can't get used to it, there's no need to force yourself. After all, everyone has different preferences and tastes."
As she spoke, Veneto pushed the milk and coffee toward Chuyang.
Although she was used to drinking black coffee, she occasionally liked to change things up. Therefore, milk and white sugar were two staples in her special coffee equipment set, allowing her to enjoy coffee that suited her taste anytime and anywhere.
After this casual exchange, the atmosphere in the living room returned to its previous calmness, resembling a family sitting together and chatting, filled with a gentle warmth.
"Under those circumstances, to be honest, I didn't have high hopes for Bismarck's actions because, in my judgment, something must have gone wrong. Therefore, all of Bismarck's efforts were in vain."
"But I couldn't stop her; everyone has their own convictions. However, I couldn't agree to Prince of Wales following Bismarck. She's already in that state; she's almost become a Deep Sea Shipgirl. If it turns out to be all for nothing in the end, how will she cope? Will she fall into becoming a Deep Sea Shipgirl? Or will she open the sea valve and end her life?"
"Wait a minute, Veneto, when did you become so concerned about Prince of Wales? But I seem to remember that you have quite a deep grudge against her," Chuyang teased.
Since coming to terms with things, any lingering fear Chuyang had toward Veneto had completely vanished. On the contrary, looking at Veneto's loli appearance while she often acted maturely made Chuyang want to joke with her even more. He also wanted to pull Veneto into his arms and pinch her cheeks.
There was no helping it; this contrast was just too cute for anyone to resist.
"Admiral, that's just history. Alright! Back when we were at Naval Base, I had a small conflict with Prince of Wales, but that's all in the past now. Can we not bring it up?"
It was difficult; Veneto, who always maintained a poker face, surprisingly showed a hint of displeasure.
"Truly a pair that loves and hates each other," Chuyang thought to himself, looking at Veneto with shining eyes.
White-Haired Loli was already quite adorable, and with her inherent contrast in cuteness, now puffing her small lips in anger, she looked just as cute as a firefly. He really wanted to take her home and raise her as his daughter.
"Well, don't mention it; you continue."
"…After Bismarck left, Prince of Wales became increasingly silent. Worried that she might do something foolish, I decided to have Kayo move in with Prince of Wales to help take care of her daily life..."
"I remember when we were at the Naval Base, we would hold grand celebrations during festivals. So, to alleviate Prince of Wales's inner pressure, I thought it would be nice to cheer her up! Every time during Duanwu, Mid-Autumn, and Spring Festival, I would organize people to plan festive activities. However, I really didn't know much about the customs of Yuhua. For this reason, I even specially invited some local Chinese descendants for assistance... Our experiences over the past four years have been roughly like this. Admiral, it's time to talk about your situation."
"About a month ago! I encountered the firefly in Rongcheng... At that time, Lexington didn't even recognize me... As for why the Naval Base disappeared out of nowhere and why everyone scattered across the world, I truly don't know..."
……
"Admiral, are you saying that not only did you marry Richelieu, but you also married Lexington and Saratoga? Let me give you two words: scumbag."
Veneto looked at Chuyang with disdain, then as if recalling something, she directly said, "Since you already have three Wedding Ships, I suppose you wouldn't mind having one more!"
