Elder brother's garrison

"..."

The ship girls were incredibly enthusiastic, and even ran up to the admirals one by one to help them get their meals.

Before Xiaobai and the other two could refuse, the ship girls had already filled three plates to the brim and pushed them into their arms.

Seeing the ship girls crowding around them with expectant and praising eyes, Xiaobai and the other two exchanged glances and could only smile and thank the ship girls. Then, amidst the ship girls' satisfied smiles, they found an empty seat nearby and sat down.

"Huh? Xiaobai, you used to have noodles with soybean paste for breakfast?"

After the three of them sat down, Nia looked at the food on Xiaobai's plate with some curiosity.

The ship girls somehow found out what kind of food Shiro liked, and when they were serving food, they gave Shiro a big bowl of noodles, with a thick layer of fried sauce on top, making the noodles shiny and oily.

Eating this for breakfast... is a bit too much for a novice like me.

“I do like eating noodles, that’s true…” Xiaobai picked up her chopsticks and poked at the noodles in her bowl, her expression a little helpless, but she quickly relaxed. “…Ah…well, let’s just consider this a special experience.”

Xiao Bai looked up at Nia's plate.

Nia's plate contained egg and bread, and a bottle of milk.

Simple and unpretentious.

As far as I can remember, Nia ate breakfast almost always like this; she rarely changed it.

That's why the ship girls served Nia breakfast according to her usual habits.

Xiao Bai stared blankly at the milk for a while, then subconsciously looked at Nia's very conspicuous chest.

Xiao Bai pondered.

Ok……

Does drinking milk regularly really promote physical development?

Nia grabbed an egg and fried bread, ready to take a bite, when suddenly she felt Xiaobai staring intently at her.

Nia closed her mouth, looked up at Xiaobai, then followed Xiaobai's gaze down and quickly saw the bread in her hand.

"Little White, would you like this?" Nia handed the bread to Little White with a smile.

"Ah, no, no need, no need..." Xiaobai shook her head, coughed twice, and lowered her head to stir the noodles in her bowl. "I just want to look, I just want to look..."

Xiao Bai's noodles with soybean paste were being stirred and made a gurgling sound.

Nia watched with curiosity as Xiaobai timidly stirred the noodles with his head down.

"Nia, do you always eat this for breakfast?" Just then, Xiaobai mustered up her courage and asked again.

"Oh, yes."

"Um... don't you get tired of eating this all the time?"

"It's alright, it's mainly because it's so convenient to eat like this..." Nia cupped her cheek, took a bite of bread, and smiled at Xiaobai, saying, "Ever since I parted ways with you, Xiaobai, I've been quite busy on expeditions to quickly conquer the main storyline areas, and I basically haven't had time to eat. So, when I eat, I try to eat as quickly as possible. This kind of bread and milk only takes a few minutes to finish, and sometimes when I don't have time to sit down, I can just grab it and take it with me, it's really useful!"

"Oh..." Xiaobai stopped mixing noodles when she saw Nia's smiling face. "Isn't it okay to be in such a hurry now?"

“It’s become a habit,” Nia said with a smile. “Besides, I don’t know what to eat for breakfast.”

Would you like to have some of mine?

"Huh?" Nia froze, the bread in her hand falling onto the plate with a thud. "Little, Little White? You...you mean, you want me to eat your food?"

"Yes, want to try it?" Xiaobai held out the mixed noodles to Nia, picked up a mouthful of noodles with her chopsticks, and handed it to Nia.

"Eh...Eh...Eh—"

Nia's eyes were tense, her voice trembling. Her eyes were fixed on the chopsticks and noodles that Xiaobai handed her, and as the chopsticks drew closer, her breathing became rapid.

Xiaobai seemed completely unaware of the immense storm her well-intentioned actions were stirring up in Nia's mind.

These are chopsticks that Xiaobai licked with his mouth and tongue...

It was just handed to me like that...?

Oh no, does that mean Xiaobai is going to feed me next?

Is it the indirect kissing kind?

Once Nia realized this, she couldn't calm down no matter what. She looked at the glistening luster on the tip of the chopsticks so close to her and took a deep breath.

Eating this stuff... does that mean I'm kissing... Little White...?

Xiao Bai's lips are pink and soft...

As Nia gasped for breath, her cheeks began to flush rapidly.

When Xiaobai saw Nia sitting motionless in the chair, looking rather flustered, she stopped holding the noodles.

"Nia, um... if you don't want to eat it, then forget it..."

"I'll eat! I'll eat!! I want to eat!!!" Nia's pupils shrank, then she came to her senses and shouted loudly at Little White!

Nia shouted exceptionally loudly.

As far as I can remember, this is the first time I've ever seen Nia so out of control.

Her voice, as if she were afraid that Xiaobai would run away, immediately echoed throughout the entire cafeteria, causing the ship girls eating around to stop what they were doing and look over.

In an instant, hundreds of people were focused on him.

"Huh? Nia? W-what's wrong?" Xiaobai was startled by Nia. She took a step back while holding the noodles and looked around.

"Xiaobai, I...I want to eat this..." Nia quickly grabbed Xiaobai's clothes, disregarding her pride, and pleaded.

"You actually like Zhajiangmian (noodles with soybean paste) this much...?" Xiaobai, seeing Nia's eager look, immediately misunderstood and breathed a sigh of relief, saying with a smile, "If you wanted some, you should have just said so..."

Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the noodles with her chopsticks, and handed them to Nia.

Nia opened her mouth in full view of everyone, took Xiaobai's chopsticks into her mouth, and sucked the noodles on the chopsticks.

Nia blushed, closed her eyes, and clung tightly to the chopsticks like a whale.

Xiao Bai picked up his chopsticks and tugged at them.

Nia tilted her head back and bit down hard on the end of the chopsticks.

"...Nia...um...you should know this, but...actually, you can't eat chopsticks." Xiaobai whispered a reminder.

"..." Nia reluctantly put down her chopsticks, covered her mouth and sat back down, chewing with misty eyes.

Nia's expression didn't seem to indicate she didn't want to eat; it was more like she had just shared a deep kiss with a beloved person.

"Is it delicious?" Xiaobai asked.

"It's so delicious!" Nia looked up and said to Xiaobai with a dazed smile.

"……"noob.

What a happy expression!

It's just noodles... How can Nia have such a happy expression? Does she usually eat such bad food?

Xiaobai sat back down.

"Little White, no, if you don't mind... would you like to eat this bread of mine?" Nia handed over a half-eaten piece of bread, her eyes pious and expectant.

"...Ah...I already have this noodle, I can't finish it..." Xiaobai scratched her cheek, pointing apologetically to the milk cup next to her, "Hmm...but if we're going to trade, can I have a sip of the milk?"

"Yes, yes!" Nia quickly held up the milk cup with both hands as if offering a tribute.

Xiaobai took the milk cup, took a sip, and smiled as she handed it back to Nia.

"Delicious."

Nia held the milk cup in both hands, staring at the milk stains on the cup, swallowing hard.

Just as Nia was carefully holding the cup, about to place it on Xiaobai's lips, a series of beeping sounds suddenly rang out beside them.

Drop drop!

Xiaobai and Nia turned their heads.

Luo Lian rested her chin on her hand, turned her face to the side, and looked at the two of them with an indescribable expression.

Chapter 3147 Still Invincible Under the New Rules

Nia had completely forgotten that there was a third person at the table.

Nia quickly put the milk cup that Xiaobai had used on the table, blushing and lowering her head.

"Hey... Lianlian, your phone is ringing again," Xiaobai said to Luo Lian.

"Yes, it rang." Luo Lian nodded, but showed no intention of turning on her phone.

"Aren't you going to take a look?" Xiaobai looked at Luo Lian cautiously.

"No need to look, it's definitely a challenge I received from someone else anyway," Luo Lian said, shrugging. "I've already set the system to automatically surrender, so I don't need to worry about it."

"Lianlian, the Admiral app allows you to purchase 'battle exemption tickets,' which can help you avoid random challenges."

"That's useless to me. My ranking will drop to the bottom sooner or later. A truce token costs eight hundred challenge tickets a day. I might as well save them."

"Ah... Lianlian, are you going to keep refusing today too?"

"Yes."

"How long...how long should I refuse?"

"Hmm... I should refuse for at least three weeks." Luo Lian thought seriously for a while, then said calmly, "The admiral of the eighth chapter is, after all, a high-ranking admiral. Even if I have your ship girls as top-tier training partners, it won't be a matter of one day or two to catch up with the strength of the ship girls."

"Three weeks... okay." Xiao Bai looked at Luo Lian's profile, thought for a while, and then sighed.

Xiao Bai originally wanted to ask Luo Lian if she was confident about this matter... but before she could ask, Xiao Bai gave up on that option.

As for Luo Lian... it's not like this is the first time she's done something like this.

Ms. Luo's greatest skill is taking things by surprise.

Anyway, Xiaobai has never failed when Luo Lian tries to do something.

All Xiaobai could do was trust her and cooperate with her.

Xiao Bai took a bite of the noodles with soybean paste and glanced at Luo Lian's plate.

Luo Lian's plate was piled high with rice, chicken legs, fried skewers, noodles, vegetables... a whole variety of things, a bowl that was almost taller than her.

These breakfasts weren't made by one ship girl, but by Luo Lian's new ship girls. Seeing her getting food, they didn't care whether Luo Lian could eat it or not, and each of them added a spoonful of food to their own breakfasts.

Chatting about Mio, chess, and medicine... Hmm... so enthusiastic.

"Lianlian...you're really loved by the ship girls." Xiaobai said with admiration.

"Hmm." Luo Lian picked up a chicken leg and ate it expressionlessly.

"Can you finish it?" Xiaobai asked again.

"Waaah, waaah, no!" Luo Lian's mouth was stuffed full, and she gave everyone a thumbs up.

Seeing Luo Lian like this, Xiao Bai could only smile slightly and continue eating his noodles.

Xiao Bai didn't notice that Nia across from him secretly drank all the milk, then blushed and stuffed the milk cup into her arms.

The three of them quickly finished their breakfast.

It's worth mentioning that during the ten-odd minutes it took to eat breakfast, Luo Lian's phone beeped three times, and Nia's phone also rang once.

As for Xiaobai's phone, it remained perfectly still and quiet.

After the meal, Luo Lian took her ship girls to the training ground. Nia said goodbye to Xiaobai and also left the cafeteria, heading towards the outside of the naval base.

Xiao Bai watched his two friends leave. After they were out of sight, Xiao Bai picked up his phone and browsed the world's top ten rankings.

After a night of reflection, the top ten rankings changed again the next day.

The four new admirals that Xiaobai didn't have a chance to challenge last night have been pushed out of the top 20, and have been replaced by four admirals that Xiaobai had a chance to challenge yesterday.

"Wow... After I dropped you out of the top 50 yesterday, you've climbed back into the top 10 in just one day. That's amazing."

Xiao Bai exclaimed in admiration, his fingers never stopping, subconsciously challenging for the tenth place in the world.

Ding!

"You do not have enough challenge tickets for this challenge. This challenge requires 1118 challenge tickets, and you currently have 500 challenge tickets!"

The notification sounded again in the Admiral app.

Xiaobai looked helplessly at the consciousness on the screen, shook her head, and put her phone away.
