There is a saying: "Character determines destiny, and details determine success or failure."
If Saratoga were sitting in the passenger seat, she would be nervously asking whether Richelieu's sword had actually struck. Although this question might seem a bit silly, it is the most normal reaction.
But what about Prince Will? Her focus is on the detail of Richelieu drawing his sword against Admiral, and she considers this to be a very audacious act.
From this, it is not hard to see that Prince of Wales's emotional intelligence can be quite low at times. The two of them are out for a chat to relax and deepen their understanding of each other, with some dating implications as well. The atmosphere should be warm with a hint of romance; if not that, then joy and humor would suffice, even a simple and plain interaction would be better than the current tense situation.
So at times, it is not that Chuyang does not want to get close to Prince of Wales, but rather that he simply cannot muster any feelings of closeness.
Despite having lived in this world for three years and becoming an elite Admiral, deep down, he is still the ordinary person from his previous life who had no significant achievements and enjoyed playing games and reading novels in his spare time.
And what is Prince of Wales? She resembles a strong businesswoman, and a very assertive one at that.
You might ask if an ordinary person like Chuyang could feel close to such a cold and serious business elite like Prince of Wales. Even if she were beautiful, Chuyang would likely remain respectful yet distant.
There’s no other reason; they simply do not belong to the same world.
As for Lexington, wasn’t she also an elite in the business world? But it’s important to note that even though Lexington may appear strong in front of others, she does not show that side when she is with Chuyang.
In their daily interactions, she is like a wife—gentle, considerate, willing to chat with Chuyang, discuss gossip about others, act cute, and be playful.
And what about Prince of Wales? Ever since meeting Admiral again, although she feels happy inside, she does not show it outwardly; she remains as cold and serious as ever, and at times even says some "hard truths" to Chuyang.
Given this comparison, it’s no wonder that after returning to the Naval Base, Chuyang chose to ignore Prince of Wales.
Of course, Chuyang also knew that his subconscious behavior was very inappropriate. He could feel that the Prince of Wales was not giving him any less than Lexington.
So, after Lexington said those words, he agreed without a second thought, simply because he wanted to make their relationship a bit closer.
"Ahem, ahem. Prince of Wales, that's not the point. Don't you think it's disgraceful for Richelieu to obtain the ring in such a way?"
The personalities of the Fleet Girls were generally hard to change, so Chuyang had long stopped expecting the Prince of Wales to become more gentle and could only adapt to her.
"Admiral, did Richelieu really pressure you?" The Prince of Wales asked incisively.
In the two days since returning to the Naval Base, the Prince of Wales had noticed some signs.
Three Wedding Ships, three different ways of interacting. When the Admiral was with Lexington, they gave off a very natural feeling, full of mutual understanding. With Saratoga, it felt like a couple in love, filled with affection. As for Richelieu, how should one put it? It was a kind of heartfelt pampering.
If before this, the Admiral had no feelings for Richelieu at all, he would never have shown such behavior.
"Uh!" Chuyang was momentarily at a loss for words.
Now that the Prince of Wales mentioned it, it seemed that it wasn't quite like that. At that time, Richelieu had been icy and had pointed her sword at him. If he had truly been scared, he wouldn't have acted like that; he should have jumped up and hidden behind Lexington. But he didn't; instead, he pulled at the tip of her sword and even teased Richelieu with words. Perhaps at that moment, he had already developed feelings for Richelieu, just like with Lexington—love at first sight.
Seeing Chuyang hesitate a bit, the Prince of Wales knew she was right but felt increasingly melancholic inside. Among the four Wedding Ships, the other three had close relationships with the Admiral, while she felt like an outsider.
Although the Prince of Wales understood what caused this situation primarily, she couldn't learn to be gentle like Lexington or passionate like Saratoga or romantic like Richelieu. If she did that, she wouldn't be herself anymore.
On the way afterward, the Prince of Wales rarely spoke and quietly listened as Chuyang recounted bits and pieces from before his trip to Europe.
Although it seemed that the two had not discussed their relationship, by the time Chuyang drove to the Gendarmerie office in Nanan County, their relationship appeared to have become much closer, at least no longer as distant as before.
The Naval Headquarters, as the nominal leadership organization for Fleet Girls worldwide, is divided into several departments based on their functions. For example, there is the Combat Group responsible for battles, the Special Investigation Agency for intelligence gathering, and the Logistics Department for supply support, among others.
The Naval Military Police Department under the Naval Headquarters primarily handles conflicts between various Naval Bases and local governments, as well as monitoring whether Admirals and Fleet Girls engage in illegal or improper conduct. Entities like the Loli Complex are certainly subjects of special attention.
For this reason, in coastal cities or places where Fleet Girls gather, the Naval Headquarters establishes Garrison Branches or offices. In smaller cities like Nanan County, there is naturally no need for a Garrison Branch, so the sign that Chuyang saw read:
"Naval Headquarters Naval Military Police Department Asian Division Mingcheng Branch Office in Nanan County."
By the way, that name is quite long.
As a government agency of sorts, the Nanan County office does not appear lavish; instead, it resembles an old factory area.
Apart from a somewhat worn two-story building directly across from the entrance, the entire factory area enclosed by red bricks features two rows of tall factories used as warehouses for storing supplies.
After getting out of the car at the office's entrance, Chuyang habitually shook his arm. If he were accompanied by any one of Lexington, Saratoga, or Richelieu, they would definitely walk up to him and hug his arm.
Unfortunately, he was with the Prince of Wales this time, so in the end, Chuyang had no choice but to take her hand himself.
"Heartbreaker, who is she? What about Richelieu?"
