The foam from Nia's head dripped onto her eyelids. She reached up and rubbed them, realizing she wouldn't be able to open her eyes for a while.
I never expected to run into Nia here.
Xiao Bai watched with great interest as Nia sat alone in the same spot.
After thinking for a while, Xiaobai took her shampoo and walked behind Nia.
Xiaobai poured some shampoo into her hand and put it into Nia's hair.
Nia's shoulders twitched involuntarily: "Cleveland? You're back so soon?"
Ah, that's interesting.
Xiao Bai didn't say anything, but simply washed Nia's hair in the same way Cleveland had done before.
Nia felt that the texture of the shampoo was similar to that of the Cleveland shampoo before, so she didn't suspect anything.
"Seriously, you should have told me when you got back. It was so scary to suddenly reach out your hand like that."
"Hmph~ Hmph~ Hmph~~" Nia hummed a song, enjoying the pleasure of being served.
Nia's hair was much shorter than Xiaobai's; it only reached her chest. As for hair, the longer it grows, the more difficult it becomes to manage.
Xiaobai poured a basin of hot water on Nia's head.
Nia shook her head, picked up a towel to dry her face, and turned her head: "Thank you... Oops?"
Standing behind Nia wasn't the previous Cleveland, but rather Little White, his hands covered in foam, smiling at her: "Hehehe."
"Little White?" Nia's face instantly turned as red as if it could bleed. She looked at Little White and murmured in disbelief.
"kindness."
What are you doing here?
"Come take a bath," Xiaobai replied.
"Cleveland, what about Cleveland?"
"I went back to get you some shampoo," Xiaobai said.
"I..." Nia looked at Xiaobai, and for some reason, a feeling of shame welled up in her heart. She quickly grabbed a towel and covered her body. "Why didn't you tell me..."
"I find this kind of thing rather interesting."
“…Bad guy.” Nia looked at Xiaobai, feeling extremely wronged.
It seems Xiaobai saw me humming a song. Oh dear, how embarrassing!
"This is a rare opportunity. Would you like me to rub your back?" Xiaobai asked.
"Little White, where are your ship girls?"
"They're in the hot springs," Xiaobai said, pointing to the hot springs behind her.
Four destroyers and three Italian ships lay side by side, their heads sticking out of the water, as if they would melt into the water at any moment.
That's really embarrassing.
"Oh, I see." Nia swallowed hard, clutching her body, and looked at the bath towel in Xiaobai's hand. "Then, thank you for your help."
-
Ten minutes passed.
The ship girls in the hot spring finally met their admiral.
Cleveland and Little White led the drowsy Nia into the hot spring.
The scalding water clung to his skin like burning flames. Xiaobai sat in the water and waited for a while before the burning sensation gradually subsided and turned into a warm feeling.
"It's a bit like taking a bath," Xiaobai said, looking at the water.
“Hot springs contain substances that are healthier than regular baths,” Veneto said from the side. “By the way, Admiral, how did you meet Nia and Cleveland?”
"It was a chance encounter," Xiaobai said.
“That’s because the place is small,” Cleveland explained.
“That’s true.” Veneto lowered her head, and the water submerged her mouth, causing gurgling bubbles to rise to the surface.
Nia sat on the other side of Xiaobai, a strange smile on her face as if she had lost her soul.
I got intimate with Xiaobai's skin.
I got intimate with Xiaobai's skin.
I got intimate with Xiaobai's skin, hahaha!
Nia's mind was completely blank.
Nia looked toward Little White's shoulder.
Her small, rounded shoulders connected to her delicate collarbones, where fine water droplets had accumulated in a small puddle.
Xiao Bai's body was flawless, like a piece of fine jade, and was pure white all over.
More than a human body, it resembles an artwork meticulously crafted by an artist who subscribes to the concept of flat-chestedness.
Nia instinctively shrank back.
Why am I feeling this helpless sense of defeat coming from within...?
Xiao Bai was also secretly watching Nia's two plump breasts that seemed to float on the water.
Nia and Xiaobai both sighed in unison.
"That's so nice..." the two girls murmured enviously.
Girls at hot springs always have a lot to talk about.
The destroyers started chatting away with Rome, like a chatterbox had been opened.
Time inevitably passes slowly.
At that moment, the Empire plunged its head into the water with a splash.
Veneto revived the empire.
"zzz..." The Empire closed its eyes and breathed quietly, seemingly lost in a sweet dream.
“Ah.” Veneto looked at the sleeping empire and shook his head.
“She’s asleep. I’ll send the Empire back,” Veneto said.
"No need, I can do it. I'm feeling a little dizzy after soaking in the hot spring for so long." Seeing that the ship girls didn't seem to have had enough fun, Xiaobai took over the task.
With a splash, Little White stood up from the water and picked up the Empire.
“I’ll go with you,” Veneto said, making a move to stand up as well.
“I can manage on my own. Veneto and Rome can stay together.” Xiaobai shook her head and looked at Nia beside her. “Nia, I’m going now.”
Nia's body was flushed red from the bath, and her eyes were glazed over.
"Okay, then take care, Little White. I'm about to go 'glug glug glug glug' too..." Before she could finish speaking, she sank down.
The ship girls were stunned.
"Is Sister Nia asleep too?"
"No, no, it looks like she's just drunk from being soaked."
"Hurry up and scoop it out!"
"Let's rescue the Admiral!"
The quiet pool suddenly erupted into chaos.
-
The Empire's previous attire was quite troublesome to put on, but fortunately there were bathrobes available for trade in the bathhouse, so Xiaobai simply bought a bathrobe and dressed the sleeping Empire in it.
Xiao Bai got dressed and left with Cleveland, each carrying a girl.
When I went outside, it was already dark.
Xiao Bai then realized that she had actually spent so much time in the bath.
"I'm sorry, Admiral, I've caused you trouble." Cleveland apologized to Xiaobai while holding Nia, who was all pink from being soaked in water.
"It's alright, I was planning to leave anyway."
“Nia is usually very disciplined, I don’t know why she got dizzy from soaking in the water today.” Cleveland looked completely puzzled.
"Haha, everyone makes mistakes sometimes," Xiaobai said.
Didn't I accidentally steal Lu Ji's ship equipment back then, which led to my current state?
Cleveland smiled and nodded, looking at Little White.
"Speaking of which, Admiral Lu Lin, you are quite strong."
"what?"
"I didn't feel any strain when I hugged the Empire."
Empire is taller and plumper than Xiaobai, and definitely heavier. It's astonishing that Xiaobai can carry such a person without any difficulty.
It seems this admiral has some training.
"Well, um, um, maybe it's because I eat well that I'm a bit stronger," Xiaobai said with a smile.
After all, she is a human with ship equipment, and her strength is at the ship girl level.
The two walked towards the room. Halfway there, Cleveland said goodbye to Little White and carried Nia back to his room.
Xiao Bai carried the Empire to his room door, took out his key, and opened the door.
Once the door is open, you can hear Sukhbaatar's kitten-like purring.
Sukhbaatar was lying on the bed, fast asleep with his mouth open.
On Xiaobai's bed, Pachina lay on Xiaobai's bed, holding Xiaobai's quilt, sniffing Xiaobai's pillow.
Her long white hair was scattered haphazardly on the bed sheet like an octopus, or like a spider's web.

Bonus chapter progress (2/30)
Chapter 260 Pachina's Turn: Card Draw!
The atmosphere became awkward for a moment.
Holding the little white dog of the Empire, he looked at Pachina and fell into deep thought.
What would it be like to come home and find a same-sex lover lying in your bed, in heat?
Xiaobai's reaction to this was that she wanted to turn around and leave immediately.
But this is my own room, where else can I go?
Pachina then sensed Xiaobai's presence. Her body, which had been twisting and turning on Xiaobai's bed while clutching the sheet, stopped abruptly, like a gear that had failed to mesh.
Pachina hugged Xiaobai's pillow and slowly turned her body around.
Four eyes meet.
"Uh, well." Xiaobai looked into Pachina's eyes, a feeling of not knowing how to respond rushing into her mind. "Um, excuse me, please continue..."
With an awkward smile, Xiaobai walked to the sleeping Sukhbaatar and put the Empire down.
Although Sukhbaatar is still asleep, she is the only one who can provide Xiaobai with a sense of security right now.
Pachina watched Xiaobai's actions and a slight smile appeared on her lips.
She hugged Xiaobai's pillow to her chest in a defiant manner and said to Xiaobai, "That person won't wake up."
"Pachina pointed at Sukhbaatar and said."
Xiao Bai was taken aback and looked towards Sukhbaatar.
Sukhbaatar slept soundly in the Empire's bed, snoring away with his mouth open.
