quickly.

Just as Lin Yueyue was lost in thought, a series of ringing phone calls came from her pocket.

Lin Yueyue subconsciously took out her phone and glanced at the caller ID on the screen.

The phone number that called Lin Yueyue was not displayed; instead, the words "Unknown Caller" were displayed in large, monotonous letters.

"Huh? This is..." Lin Yueyue frowned. She answered the phone and called out to the person on the other end, "Hello? May I ask..."

"Hello." A clear, serious male voice, but tinged with a hint of helplessness, came from the other end of the phone. "Is this Ms. Lin Yueyue?"

"?" Lin Yueyue was taken aback. "Yes, I am."

"That's good." A helpless voice continued from the other end of the phone. Just by listening to the voice, Lin Yueyue could imagine the man on the other end of the phone holding his phone, shaking his head with a wry smile while holding his forehead. "Hello, Ms. Lin Yueyue, I am the person introduced by Xiaobaimei... cough cough, I am the person introduced by Admiral Lu Lin to help you arrange your appointment as admiral."

"Huh??" Lin Yueyue's eyes widened in surprise. She abruptly looked up in the direction Xiaobai had gone. "So fast??"

Lin Yueyue thought that even if Xiaobai had arranged her appointment as admiral, it would be a few weeks or even months later. She never expected that no sooner had Xiaobai left than she received a call about her appointment as admiral.

This efficiency... even a phone bill notification isn't this fast.

Lin Yueyue took a closer look at the incoming call.

Could it be... that this person is actually a very powerful leader?

Lin Yueyue's heart jumped into her throat.

Chapter 1738 Goddaughter

"Ms. Lin Yueyue, I know you're quite upset right now. Admiral Lu Lin has just told me the whole story." The male voice on the other end of the phone said, "First of all, I want to apologize for Admiral Lu Lin's sudden request earlier... I'm sorry, that person has always been so capricious..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yueyue immediately realized that Xiaobai's identity was indeed extraordinary.

Xiaobai is truly no ordinary admiral.

Soon, Lin Yueyue's burning passion calmed down a little.

really……

Lu Lin's mother's desire to become an admiral clearly presented a challenge for the person on the phone...

makes sense.

The position of admiral is so prestigious... how could I possibly become one just based on a few words from someone else...?

Although my mother had been very kind to me, I still had some expectations about the outcome of this matter, so my mindset wasn't right...

Lin Yueyue sighed.

The flame in my heart has burned out, leaving only a pile of dejected ashes.

"Ah! No, no! I'm fine!" Lin Yueyue lowered her head, carefully holding the phone, and said into the microphone, "I...I know, it's definitely against the rules to just let an ordinary person become an admiral...I understand, I get it...I'm sorry for causing you trouble..."

but.

What Lin Yueyue heard next on the phone stunned her.

"Hmm?" The man on the phone hummed softly. "Ms. Lin Yueyue, what did you suddenly understand? Did you misunderstand something just now?"

"……Misunderstand?"

"Well... the reason I apologize to you, Ms. Lin Yueyue, is simply because I feel that person's impulsive and capricious behavior may have caused you some trouble..." The man's voice came through the microphone, "Actually, what I was about to say next was that you should report to the Admiral's branch in Kyoto this afternoon, Ms. Lin Yueyue."

"Report...report?" Lin Yueyue's eyes widened. "Huh? You mean...?"

"Sigh..." A long sigh came from the other end of the phone, "After all, it's that person's request... Even the little ancestor has spoken, how dare I, as his subordinate, disobey..."

"Uh, sorry..." Lin Yueyue lowered her head awkwardly.

"Oh, Ms. Lin Yueyue, you don't need to apologize at all. Although I said that, I'm actually quite happy that you've become an admiral." The man on the other end of the phone chuckled twice. "Ms. Lin Yueyue, you're the second leader of the Obsidian Mercenary Group, right? Hmm, young and promising, and the number of ship girls around you is comparable to that of a high-ranking admiral in Chapter Seven. A girl with such potential joining us can even skip the newbie stage and directly become a large-scale naval base with combat capabilities. I should be very happy about that."

"Really?!"

"Well... consider this an excuse."

"..." Lin Yueyue said.

"However, there is one more thing, regarding Ms. Lin Yueyue's admiral network..." The man's voice rose again.

Lin Yueyue looked at her phone with increasing nervousness.

"Actually, according to the rules, if your admiral network were exposed, both the admiral who gave your father the nerve agent and your father who received it should be punished to some extent. However... now that you're about to become an admiral, it's only natural for an excellent admiral to have a powerful admiral network, so you don't need to worry about your network being exposed causing trouble." The man said with a smile, "I guess that little devil thought of this too, which is why he recommended you to become an admiral, to help you eliminate future troubles."

"Thank you so much..." Lin Yueyue gripped her phone tightly, deeply moved.

"Okay." The man's voice on the other end of the phone was extremely gentle. "Then it's settled. Remember to report to the Admiral's Headquarters in Kyoto before this afternoon. I will have my subordinates arrange your appointment as Admiral."

"Okay! Thank you!" Lin Yueyue, holding her phone, bowed several times to the air in front of her.

"Hahaha... You're welcome, you're welcome, it's my pleasure..." The man chuckled for a while, paused slightly, and then casually asked, "Oh, by the way, Ms. Lin Yueyue, speaking of which, I have a question I'd like to ask you."

"what is the problem?"

"Suppose you're in a special battle where you need to sacrifice one hundred people to save one thousand, what would you do?" The man's voice was calm, as if he were chatting casually.

"...Sacrifice one hundred people to save one thousand?" Lin Yueyue tilted her head and frowned.

"Hmm, what would you do?"

"...I will..." Lin Yueyue gripped her phone tightly, pondered for a moment, then raised her eyebrows, a serious expression appearing on her face, her eyes shining brightly, "I will find the person who set the questions, and then give them a good beating!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

The man on the phone was silent for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Eh? Ah... I'm sorry... I, I was rude..." Lin Yueyue then realized that she had just been talking to someone of extraordinary status. She awkwardly shrank her neck and apologized to the person on the other end of the phone, "I was really..."

"It's alright, Ms. Lin Yueyue, your answer was excellent, well done!" The man on the phone said with a laugh, his tone becoming more serious. "Ms. Lin Yueyue, in short, welcome to join us."

"thanks, thanks……"

"I have other things to attend to. Let's talk about the rest after you become the admiral," the man on the phone said.

"Okay!" Lin Yueyue nodded, then bowed and asked cautiously, "Then... may I ask how I should address you..."

"You can just call me Mu Yu."

"Lord Mu Yu!"

"Okay, then that's settled."

The phone clicked off.

Holding the phone, Lin Yueyue turned her gaze to the sky, still savoring the moment.

"Wow...it was all true..."

I... am really going to become an admiral...

It feels like a dream.

Lin Yueyue stared blankly at the sky for a long time before suddenly snapping out of it. Then, she picked up her phone and dialed a number.

The call was answered after two beeps.

"Hello?" A steady and weathered male voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Dad!" Lin Yueyue called out to the man on the phone.

"Oh! It's Yueyue!" The man on the phone gave a loud voice, then began to ramble on, his tone incongruous with his own. "What's wrong, Yueyue? How are you doing in Kyoto? Sigh... I understand you're young, hot-blooded and can't swallow your anger, but it's been twenty years. That officer who tricked our mercenary group back then wasn't low-ranking; he's connected to all sorts of people. Let's just let it go. We're all adults. These grudges are for our generation; you, the younger generation, should just give up quickly..."

The male voice was rambling on and on, going from saying "suffering a loss is a blessing" and "learn from your mistakes" to "Kyoto is not our territory" and "your safety is more important." If it weren't for the sense of vicissitude in the voice, one would have thought that the person holding the phone was a talkative old woman.

"..." Lin Yueyue held the microphone with a helpless expression, "Dad... actually, the person who tricked us before has already been sent to prison by me and my friends here."

"Sigh, what good will sending them to jail do? The bad guys will still get away with it, and we won't get anything out of it, so... um? Wait, what did you say?" The man seemed to still be in lecturing mode. As he spoke, he suddenly realized that something his daughter had just said was a bit off. "What did you say? You sent the bad guys to jail?!"

"Yes, it's been sent in."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Well done! My daughter!" There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by the old man's cheers, "Damn! I've had my eye on that bastard for ages, this time he'll eat his fill in jail! Go all out! Brilliant trip to Kyoto! She's truly my daughter! Hahahaha!!"

Adult conversations are always so realistic.

"..." Lin Yueyue held her phone, looked up at the sky, and thought for a while, "Um... Dad, there's one more thing."

"Hmm? What's up? Is it good news? Tell me so your dad can be happy!" The old man on the other end of the phone was overjoyed.

"...I think I've become an admiral," Lin Yueyue said, blinking.

"..."

The other end of the phone went silent, as if a pause button had been pressed.

"..."

"Admiral?"

"Ah."

"really?"

"Have I lied to you?"

"...Wh...what happened?"

"I'm not really sure... It seems like I met a very kind person here... and I told her a lot about myself, and then she found someone to make me an admiral," Lin Yueyue said honestly.

"Him?" A questioning voice came from the other end of the phone. "Who is he?"

"She's such a kind person... She's the one who helped me catch those bad guys and put them in the police station. She even built a repair pool for our mercenary group, saying that we'd just be responsible for managing it for her, and our mercenary group could use it freely..."

"What? A repair pool?" the man exclaimed in shock. "Why would he help you for no reason?"

"I don't know either...maybe...maybe because...she sees me as her goddaughter?" Lin Yueyue said, a satisfied and happy smile appearing on her face. "Hehe..."

“God-daughter…” But Lin Yueyue’s laughter, coming through the receiver, stunned the man on the other end of the line. “God-daughter…”

Her own daughter... took the ship girl and ran away to Kyoto alone, where she met a man with extraordinary abilities and even became his goddaughter...

This plot... it sounds so familiar...

This goddaughter... could it be the kind of goddaughter I often see in those lewd books?

No way? !

"No! Daughter! You're out there, you can't see into people's hearts! Those who help you aren't just doing it out of pure kindness, they might have other motives!" the man said in a panic.

"But she's really good to me... She came to see me right before dawn this morning, and I even invited her into my tent to sit for a while. We chatted for a long time... Just as she was leaving, she touched my hand, leaned close to my ear, and gently told me that I will definitely become an excellent admiral in the future!" Lin Yueyue said to the phone, feeling very moved.

Pfft!

After listening to Lin Yueyue's words.

On the other end of the phone.

Then came the sound of Lin Yueyue's father falling off the bed.

Chapter 1739 Patting someone's head is the best way to increase their favorability.

Xiao Bai, who had left the factory area, was unaware of the series of friendly interactions between Lin Yueyue and her elderly father.

Creating a repair pool for the female hearth goddess was the last thing Xiaobai had to do in Kyoto. Now that the matter had been resolved in a few words, Xiaobai was free of worries and hurried back to the Yubari family before noon.

A few hours later, Shiro returned to the Yubari family home from the factory area.

Pushing open the door, one could hear the lively sounds of firelighting the stove and the clatter of pots and pans coming from the Yubari family's kitchen. Xiaobai walked to the kitchen entrance and looked inside. There she saw Changchun, wearing an apron and with her hair tied in a high ponytail, standing in front of several large woks, skillfully tossing and stir-frying bright green vegetables. The glossy, agate-like vegetables tumbled and rolled in the air as Changchun tossed them in the woks.

"Admiral? You're back!" Changchun, who was cooking, felt Xiaobai's gaze. She turned her head and smiled at Xiaobai, who was standing at the kitchen entrance. "Have you taken care of the things you needed to do when you went out?"

"Yes, it's all taken care of." Xiaobai nodded and said to Changchun in the kitchen, "I can spend more time with you guys from now on."

"Thank you, Admiral." Changchun smiled shyly and happily. "Then Admiral, please go sit in the living room for a while. Lunch will be ready in a little while. We'll have mixed vegetable stir-fried noodles for lunch today."

When Xiaobai left Lin Yueyue's place, it was around nine or ten in the morning. It takes about three hours to travel from the Kyoto factory area to downtown Kyoto. Although Xiaobai had a vague memory of having just eaten at Lin Yueyue's house and not having digested her food yet, judging from the time, it was indeed lunchtime.

However, seeing Changchun's bright smile, Xiaobai really couldn't bring himself to say that he had eaten outside.

—And I haven't had noodles in a long time, I'm really craving them.

"Okay." Xiaobai nodded, left the kitchen, and walked into the living room.

The Yubari family's living room was no longer as cold and deserted as it used to be. Shiro walked into the living room, where the TV was playing a midday drama. The sofa was full of people. Shin-Jessie was sleeping on the sofa with her white neck tilted back. Next to her, the Kitchen Goddess and Mutsu were sitting side by side, eating popcorn and watching the TV screen intently. Yubari, wearing red-rimmed glasses, leaned against the sofa base, holding a fountain pen and writing something in a notebook.
