Elder brother's garrison

Page 2407

……

Set aside trivial matters for now.

The daily work of the Nanxing Garrison still needs to be handled.

Perhaps because their relationship progressed to a higher level last night, Xiaobai was able to sit next to Nanxing and share some of her work when she was handling official business at home today.

"Sister Nanxing, this form is filled out and I've put it here for you."

Xiaobai placed the completed form to Nanxing's left.

"Hmm." Nanxing nodded in response, her head down as she scribbled on the report.

"These are the documents needed for the report, and I've prepared them for you." Xiaobai flipped the reports to the corresponding pages and moved them in front of Nanxing.

"Okay." Nanxing took the report and copied its contents onto the document in his hand as he looked at them.

The teamwork between Xiaobai and Nanxing was exceptionally smooth.

Chao Da and the others chatted idly as they served tea and water to the two admirals. Afterwards, they lay, sat, and slept on the sofa, holding a snack box and constantly changing TV programs with the remote control.

Both admirals are very focused when they are working, and they can watch TV programs on Yamato without any problems as long as the volume isn't too loud.

Chao Da was munching on a senbei (rice cracker), sipping tea, and watching the backs of the two admirals working diligently in front of him.

Suddenly, I feel inexplicably content with this life.

Chapter 3365 Nanxing's Ring

With Xiaobai as her top-notch assistant, Nanxing was able to handle the garrison's affairs much faster than yesterday.

Nanxing carefully placed the processed documents aside, page by page.

The sound of turning pages of documents could be heard from time to time in the living room.

quickly.

About two hours later.

The massive amount of documents that the two had originally planned to work on until the evening were successfully processed by the two of them.

After finishing her work, Nanxing held the last document in her hand. She subconsciously turned her head to look at the bright sunshine and sky outside the window.

A hint of surprise flashed in Nanxing's eyes. She turned around and looked at Xiaobai sitting next to her, who was smiling at her. Her expression was somewhat complicated.

"that's it."

Nanxing glanced down at the documents in her hand, and after confirming that everything was correct, she organized them and placed them on the coffee table according to their order and type.

"Work's finished!"

Little White raised his hands and cheered with a smile.

"It's not completely finished... because there might be additional work later... but I've finished what I have on hand now, so I can take a break." Nanxing withdrew her hand, looked at the neatly organized documents on the table, and explained to Xiaobai. At the end, she paused for a moment and whispered her thanks to Xiaobai, "Thank you... with your help, my work speed became much faster... thank you for your hard work."

"Sister Nanxing, you're welcome." Xiaobai smiled and shook her head.

Actually, Xiaobai had wanted to help for a long time.

In terms of work quality, Xiaobai wouldn't dare say she's among the best in the admiral community, but when it comes to processing speed, she hasn't encountered an admiral who's faster than her.

If it's used as a support role, it's ultimately a waste of Xiaobai's high-speed CPU.

If Nanxing could completely let go and hand over all the documents to Xiaobai to handle, she was confident that she could finish Nanxing's work about half an hour earlier.

However... this is just wishful thinking.

Ultimately, the position of the Nanxing Garrison Commander is still Nanxing's responsibility. Xiaobai can help, but she absolutely cannot replace her. If Nanxing doesn't take over the work here, then her job loses its meaning.

"Sister Nanxing, now that work is temporarily finished, what are our plans for the future?" Xiaobai asked Nanxing with a smile.

"I don't know..." Nanxing thought for a while, glanced at the tea on the table, and said to Xiaobai, "The tea is cold, I'll go make some hot water first."

After saying that, Nanxing got up, picked up the tea set from the coffee table, and walked towards the water dispenser in the living room.

Xiao Bai lay on the coffee table, resting her chin on her hands, watching Nan Xing's back as she bent over to get hot water.

Nanxing has a really great figure.

With a slender waist, long legs, delicate shoulders, long arms, and a firm, perky bottom, her full-figured body should have been quite flamboyant. However, on Nanxing, her body was somehow in a quiet balance, exuding an air of refined elegance from being well-read.

Arisaema is used to collect water and brew tea.

Xiao Bai stared at Nan Xing's back, watching her every move, and suddenly thought of many things.

Actually... although Xiaobai had always wanted to help Nanxing with her heavy workload, before last night, before Xiaobai triggered Nanxing's full favorability event, she was actually quite hesitant to interfere with Nanxing's work.

After all, they were just ordinary close friends at that time.

The nature of the work at the naval base is, in the end, rather serious. Nanxing's naval base is one of the top ten naval bases, and in her daily work she will frequently come into contact with highly confidential documents that cannot be easily disclosed to outsiders.

Therefore, it is ultimately not good for Xiaobai, who is not directly under the command of the Nanxing Garrison, to interfere in her work.

But after last night's event that boosted their favorability, Xiaobai and Nanxing can now be considered family.

Since we're family, it's only natural to help each other.

what?

You say this is a serious admiral's job? But we're family, bound by blood!

what?

You're saying this is a confidential document that can't be disclosed to outsiders? But we're family, we talk about everything!

Family members can do whatever they want!

That's why Xiaobai was able to help Nanxing with her work without worry.

Of course, in principle, even if they are family members, Xiaobai should not interfere with Nanxing's work.

However... well, even if this kind of thing is done, it's only known to heaven, earth, Xiaobai, and Nanxing. Xiaobai won't deliberately leak the confidential files of Nanxing Garrison to others. As long as Xiaobai lets go of his mental hurdle, no one can stop him.

This is the highest form of idealism.

Nanxing has brewed the tea.

"What are you thinking about?" Nanxing returned to Xiaobai's side with the tea she had just brewed. She looked at Xiaobai lying on the coffee table, smiling at her without showing her teeth, and felt a little curious.

"I'm thinking, it's so great to take things a step further with Sister Nanxing," Xiaobai said to Nanxing with a smile. "We can do so many things we couldn't do before."

"……oh……"

Nanxing paused for a moment, looked at Xiaobai's smiling face, slowly nodded, and bent down to put down the tea set.

After brewing tea for Xiaobai and himself, Nanxing picked up his teacup and took a small sip, as if he was pondering something.

After a while, Nanxing put down his teacup and said to Xiaobai.

“I will study.” Nanxing’s expression was somewhat serious. “I will try my best… so you won’t be bored.”

"Hmm? What's so boring?" Xiaobai looked at Nanxing curiously.

"..." Nanxing shook her head and didn't say anything more, but a faint blush briefly appeared on her fair and flawless cheeks before disappearing.

After their work was temporarily finished, Xiaobai and Nanxing had nothing to do for a while, so they sat together at the coffee table, drinking tea, eating snacks, watching TV, and waiting for time to pass.

As for the super-sized Yamato...

Chao Da and I don't know when, she fell asleep on the sofa again, sleeping soundly and contentedly.

It seems that Chaoda really likes Nanxing's sofa.

"Is it alright for her to keep sleeping like this?" Nanxing asked.

“Dean of the Deep Sea… well, I heard from Yamato-neechan that when they have nothing to do on the surface of the sea, they sleep in their territory.” Shiro said to Nanxing with a smile, “My other Deep Sea Dean, Pachina, does the same. If they want to sleep, they can probably sleep for a long time.”

“I see…” Nanxing nodded slightly and took a sip of tea.

"Oh, right." At this moment, Xiaobai suddenly seemed to remember something. She put down her teacup, opened her ship equipment space and started rummaging around. "Now that the work is over, it's time for this... Let me look, I remember putting it here before..."

Nanxing stared at Xiaobai until Xiaobai pulled out a small, square box from her own ship equipment space.

"What is this?" Nanxing stared at the small box, somewhat puzzled.

"This is... a ring." Xiaobai opened the box and presented it to Nanxing with both hands.

Upon hearing this, Nanxing's gaze fell upon the box.

Inside this small box stands a finely crafted, elegant silver ring.

Nanxing shifted her gaze from the small box to Xiaobai.

“Sister Nanxing, now that we’re in this relationship, that hair clip from before… um… if you find it troublesome, you don’t have to wear it anymore.” Xiaobai looked at Nanxing, her eyes sparkling, and said, “Wear this one, this one is better!”

"A vow ring?"

"Yes! This is our naval base's oath ring. Only our naval base in the whole world can make it." Xiaobai said with a smile. "Besides being used as an oath ring, it also has the function of shielding the aura of the deep sea and the aura of ship girls, just like the hair clip on your head."

“…” Nanxing stared at the ring in the box, suddenly feeling a little melancholy.

"Sister Nanxing, don't you like it?" Seeing that Nanxing didn't move, Xiaobai thought that she didn't like this style, and quickly reached into the ship equipment space again. "Ah... well... I thought you liked something more understated and luxurious, Sister Nanxing... If you like something with big diamonds or jewelry, I have that kind too, I remember it was..."

Xiao Bai flipped through the pages frantically.

Nanxing gently stroked Xiaobai's hand that was holding the ring box.

“I didn’t say I didn’t like it.” Nanxing looked at Xiaobai with gentle eyes. “I didn’t move just now because I felt… very happy.”

After speaking, Nanxing slowly took the ring box from Xiaobai's hand. She gently pinched the ring standing inside with her index finger and thumb, and looked at the exquisite carving on the ring with gentle eyes.

"Have you always kept these in your ship's equipment space?" Nanxing asked Xiaobai.

"Ah... um... after all, sometimes the wear and tear is quite significant..." Xiaobai subconsciously glanced at Chao Yamato sleeping on the sofa, "Some Deep Sea Deans, because their Deep Sea aura is too strong, will accidentally break their rings during battle."

"..."

Nanxing gently put the ring on her ring finger. She looked at the sparkling ring on her finger and remained silent for a long time.

Nanxing seemed to be quietly admiring her hands, or perhaps contemplating the future.

In short, seeing that Nanxing was lost in thought, Xiaobai immediately quieted down and did not disturb her.

After a while.

Nanxing seemed to have come to her senses, and in front of Xiaobai, she took the ring off her hand.

"Hey? Sister Nanxing, aren't you wearing it?"

"Um……"

Nanxing spoke up, but she didn't reply to Xiaobai immediately. Instead, she held the ring on her hand and reached into her clothes to take out the necklace.

Then Nanxing held the ring and gently pressed it against the pendant of the necklace.

Snapped!

A crisp snapping sound came from the pendant.

The silver ring was then hung on the necklace along with the pendant.

Like the sun and the moon.

Chapter 3366 Xiaobai's Mother-in-Law and Daughter-in-Law Relationship

“That way… I feel more at ease.” Nanxing tucked the necklace pendant and ring back into her bosom. She touched the pendant through her clothes and said to Xiaobai, “It wouldn’t be good if I lost it if I kept it on my hand.”

"Oh..." Xiaobai looked at Nanxing's smooth fingers, feeling lost and forlorn.

Ok……

Although the function of a ring in blocking one's aura is pretty much the same whether it's worn on a finger, toe, or even around the neck, if possible, Xiaobai would still prefer to see Nanxing wearing a ring properly.

Forget it.

Since Sister Nanxing said it would make me feel more at ease, it's not a bad idea.

Wear the ring as a necklace pendant on your chest; perhaps next time you hug her, you'll see it when you look up.

It's quite interesting.

Having figured this out, Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief and then stuck out her tongue at Nanxing.

"Sister Nanxing just doesn't want others to know about our relationship."

“I didn’t mean that…” Nanxing shook his head, “but… it’s definitely better if fewer people know about it.”

"Who does Sister Nanxing want to keep this a secret from?" Xiaobai asked.
