"Uh...oh"
Seeing Yi Bei nod, Frederick turned back to continue feeding Zheng Ri. Yi Bei felt like she couldn't even eat a croissant anymore. Her lover had been taken away by her mother. What kind of plot was this, where the one who came first had the last bit of success?
No, it seems like I'm a latecomer.
Thinking about this made Yi Bei even more depressed, and his face showed a sullen expression.
In the past, Frederick would have comforted the silly boy when he saw Elbe like this, but not now. These days, his own child has to take precedence.
After Zheng Ri said he was full, Frederick picked up a napkin and gently wiped the crumbs from the corners of his mouth. Seeing his pink lips, Frederick kissed them lightly.
"Hmm, it smells like sausage," Frederick thought, licking his lips.
"Where would you like to go today?"
"Today, well... I'll let you make the arrangements today, Frederick."
Zheng Ri thought for a moment and realized that there was nowhere he wanted to go today. If he really had to say, he wanted to see Egil dressed as a maid.
After all, who wouldn't love Egil, with her bodysuit in black stockings, milk foam, and succubus sister vibe? And a dragon maid who'd be completely devoted to her? Eugen also wants to meet his witch mistress, and Z23 in her teacher's uniform...
Although that's what he thought, Zheng Ri saw the expectation and irresistible look in Frederick's eyes, so he had no choice but to let her arrange today's schedule.
"What a willful child, but it's okay, I'll be tolerant of you~"
When Frederick heard that Zheng Ri told him to make the arrangements, a glint of light appeared in his eyes. Since he said so, then they should spend the day together properly.
After breakfast, Zheng Ri followed Frederick's arrangement and went with her and Hu Teng to her own performance room.
"Welcome to our kingdom, child. This will be our paradise. From now on, all you need to do is admire it!"
As soon as he led the day into the concert room, Frederick turned around and bowed to him, as if generously displaying his territory.
"Is our first trip today to a concert?"
Zheng Ri sat in the audience seat where only he and Hu Teng were present, and asked Hu Teng, who was sitting next to him.
You'll find out soon, don't worry.
Knowing he wanted an answer, Hu Teng didn't tell him directly. Instead, he let him experience it for himself. Hu Teng then reached out and took his hand, ready to enjoy the rare music performed by Frederick himself.
Soon, thanks to Frederick's prior preparations, the scene suddenly went dark. A few seconds later, the sound of footsteps could be heard, but in the complete darkness, nothing could be seen. He could feel someone touching his face and even secretly kissing him.
After a period of darkness for about ten seconds, the stage lights came on, and then it was revealed that not only Frederick was on stage, but also Ron, Deutschland, Prince Rephitler, and others dressed in banquet attire. Most importantly, they were all holding various musical instruments.
And when they saw Masaharu, they didn't say anything, but instead focused their attention on the musical instruments in their hands. But that wasn't the main point. The important thing was that while Masaharu was still in a daze, a familiar ship girl sat down in the empty seat next to him and even reached out to poke him.
"My dear little bunny, did you miss me?"
"Eugen, what are you doing here?...By the way, did you just kiss me?"
Turning his gaze away from the table, Zheng Ri looked at Eugen sitting beside him, noticing the same smile still on her face. He leaned closer to her, unable to resist...
Asking.
"Oh~, I was invited, but my little bunny got taken advantage of, that won't do! I have to get it back. Here, kiss..."
Eugen blinked, knowing that Jeong-il had just been kissed by someone else but didn't care. Instead, he leaned over and kissed him, not just a casual touch, but a deep kiss.
However, her initiative in asking for a kiss made all the ship girls on the stage look at them, or more accurately, they saw Eugen sneaking away. What happened to waiting together later?
However, Eugen didn't take too long, because she knew that wouldn't do. After about ten seconds, she let go and licked her lips at him, indicating that it wasn't enough.
"Eugen, that's enough, Frederick will get angry if you keep doing that."
Seeing that Frederick was still expressionless, Hu Teng reminded her that people who are good at using calmness to hide their inner emotions are very scary.
"Hmm~, it's okay, just listen carefully from now on."
Having tasted success, Eugen spoke nonchalantly, turning her gaze to the stage. Seeing this, Frederick picked up his baton and began to wave it gently. As he did so, the instruments the ship girls held began to play.
Soon, the music, full of German classical and profound melodies, began to drift into Zheng Ri's ears. The live performance always stirred his heart.
Chapter 260 The Reward for the Performance
Finally, after the climax, all the instruments stopped playing, and the entire venue fell silent. You could even hear each other's breathing. But without prior arrangement, all the ship girls on stage looked down at Masahiro, and Masahiro clapped along just in time, inspiring the ship girls around him to join in.
"How is it, my beloved? Does the resonance evoked by these exquisite works of art please you?"
The first ship girl to bounce down from the platform and run to him was Z46. She was wearing a black and red chocolate dress and a small hat, and holding a violin. She wanted his praise, and her golden eyes, full of intellect and calm, looked at Masahiro with a hint of expectation.
"Yes, the performance was very good and quite pleasant to listen to. It reminded me of the ups and downs and grandeur of history. However, it's a pity that I'm not a professional critic and can't give you a specific review."
Seeing Z46's obedient appearance, Zheng Ri reached out and hugged her. The intimate gesture brought a faint blush to Z46's usually calm face, but she nodded without caring.
"It's alright. Flowery words are just icing on the cake; genuine feelings are what truly please the ear. However, appropriate rewards always bring joy."
Z46's words made Zheng Ri smile. Well, so she wanted a reward from him. But whatever, let's see what she wants.
"So what do you want, Z46?"
"To me, who was born into this world, your approval is my proof, and the bestowal of my name."
Z46 extended her right hand to Masahiro and, mimicking the ship girls who pressured her into marriage, struck a pose as if asking for a ring, making Masahiro laugh. He then took her right hand, feeling its small, delicate, and boneless softness, and said seriously:
"Okay, then let's book it for now."
I accept your promise.
Having received his promise, Z46 smiled faintly. This was naturally the best outcome. However, while Z46 was pleased, the other ship girls were not happy.
"Commander, what about me? What about me? I want one too!"
Prince Heinrich also approached Zheng Ri, but she was the only one who hadn't changed into a formal dress; she was dressed in her everyday clothes. Her cello was nowhere to be seen, but she was looking at Zheng Ri with an expression that said, "I want it too."
"The rings... have been mostly divided up now, we'll have to wait for the rest."
Seeing Heinrich lean closer, and after thinking about how many rings he still had, Zheng Ri had no choice but to interrupt her thoughts directly, as he didn't have many left.
"Ah? Okay then, let's do it this way, *kiss*, consider this payment."
Not getting the answer he wanted, Heinrich had no choice but to give up on asking for the ring. The next second, he simply kissed him lightly on the lips, so that his time spent practicing the violin wouldn't have been wasted.
"Okay, mua~, this is your payment, payment for playing for me."
Seeing Heinrich preparing to stand up straight, Masaru took the opportunity to hold her pretty face and return the kiss. Hmm, it was fruity; she must have just drunk a fruit drink.
"Hehe~, but the Commander doesn't even react to being kissed like this by a girl anymore, it's not fun..."
Heinrich chuckled awkwardly after being kissed back by Zheng Ri, only to realize that his beloved commander was no longer responding to his kiss, leaving him with mixed feelings.
"That's because our darling~ has grown into a grown man, so of course he wouldn't be shy about such things. But Commander, I remember you went to buy rings with Yorktown, right? And you don't have many ship girls to swear oaths with after that, so..."
Eugen pulled his arm directly into her lap, holding it tightly with both hands, using her advantage to hold him firmly, and gloatingly tore at his arm.
They held his position, not allowing him to escape.
"Huh?! Commander, is Eugen telling the truth? Are you lying to me?"
"Well..."
"Alright, Eugen, don't embarrass the Commander."
Just as things were about to get out of hand, Frederick stepped in to stop it, speaking to Eugen in a slightly suggestive tone to make Eugen lose interest and stop teasing him.
"Alright, my children, how did they play?"
"great"
"That's good. Such beautiful music must have taken a lot of effort to put together. How about we reward them?"
He bent down and stroked his head, Frederick said with a smile, making Zheng Ri realize that he had been arranged, but it didn't matter, he wouldn't lose out.
So Zheng Ri got up and went to the ship girl in charge of the performance to give each of them a kiss. However, the German girl requested a deep kiss, so he had to satisfy her. Rephitler then started arguing with the German girl about the duration of the kiss, and in the end, Frederick gave each of them a little punch to teach them a lesson.
Finally, when Jeongil saw Ron standing in front of him with his arms outstretched, he hesitated for some reason. However, Ron did not change his expression and gave him a kind smile.
"Commander, what's wrong? I want a kiss from you too, is that not allowed?"
“Of course, Ron.”
After hesitating for a few seconds, Zheng Ri stepped forward to give her the hug and kiss she wanted. However, after only intending to give her a simple kiss, he felt Ron's domineering nature. His soft yet firm tongue pried open her teeth and, without saying a word, pulled her up to dance and revel.
"Commander, this is my return gift. Do you like it?"
"I quite like it."
Feeling that his mouth was full of Ron's taste, Zheng Ri thought about it and realized that he did like it, which made Ron's expression even more cheerful.
After giving them all their rewards, they chatted casually for a few minutes and then left one after another. Finally, as Ron was about to leave, he turned around and gave him a sweet smile, which left Zheng Ri somewhat puzzled.
"I'm sorry, my child, Ron just expresses her love for you differently, but she would never hurt you."
Seeing Zheng Ri staring at Ron's figure, Frederick reminded him with some concern, hoping that she wouldn't develop a bad prejudice against Ron because of his personality.
"I think it's pretty normal, just not like the Ron I remember. But where are we going next?"
"You'll like what happens next, my child."
"How about we go shopping together?"
Chapter 261 The Kind of Like You Expect
“My child, how do you like this dress? Doesn’t it look good? I think it suits you very well, don’t I agree, Charybdis?”
"Yes, I think so too. It would be great if the owner were willing to wear it."
Inside the shop, Frederick the Great brought Masaharu to the shopping street they had visited countless times before. Then, like a mother taking her child to look at clothes, she took out the men's clothing prepared by the ship girls and held it up against Masaharu's body, checking if it looked good and suited him. Charybdis was also there to chime in, leaving Masaharu somewhat at a loss for words.
I originally thought she was there to buy clothes for Frederick, but it turned out she brought herself to buy clothes too. I miscalculated.
"Charybdis, is it your turn to be on duty today?"
Ignoring Frederick's gestures, Masaharu leaned against Charybdis and asked, "Every time I come here, I see different ship girls working here, which makes me a little curious."
"Hmm~, Master is so clever. Charybdis will be on duty today, but Master can leave it free."
After praising him, Charybdis nodded in satisfaction, then secretly whispered in his ear that he was superior to Charybdis, before pulling away and winking with a smile.
"...Thank you for your kind gesture, but I'm not short of money; I'll still spend what I need to spend."
Faced with Charybdis's offer of a green card, Masaharu refused. He was already living off the ship girls, with plenty of money and everything he could want, so why would he be greedy for money to buy clothes? Buy it! You can buy it!
As for why he's a kept man, it's because he's forced to be one to survive. Besides, can a commander being kept man be called a kept man? It's more like being chewed up and fed mouth-to-mouth, without even having to move his mouth.
"Master, really... whatever you like is fine."
Seeing his expression of "I don't lack money, I have no interest in money," Charybdis couldn't help but chuckle to himself. "It'll be soon, it'll be soon."
"How about you change into this outfit, kid?"
While Jeongil was having a private chat with the royal maid, Frederick, who had already made up his mind, turned around, placed the clothes he had chosen in front of Jeongil, and wanted him to change into them.
"Okay, I'll go change it."
He glanced at the clothes in Frederick's hand and instinctively wanted to take them, but Charybdis beat him to it.
"Although you can be more at ease when the maid isn't around, now that I'm here, please allow me to serve you."
Zheng Ri watched as Charybdis folded his clothes with one hand and gestured with the other, gesturing for him to look at Frederick. Frederick, however, had no objection and instead nodded.
“Charybdis is right. It is their responsibility to serve the children. Alright, go change. I also want to see how my child will turn out.”
Frederick smiled and said this. Seeing this, Masaharu followed Karybdis to the changing room to change. During this time, Karybdis did not show any desire for him, which made Masaharu feel comfortable. Logically speaking, his ship girl liked to be close to him, even if they did nothing. But this was fine too.
And as expected of Charybdis, her hand speed was very fast; she changed her clothes in just a few strokes. However, this thought only lasted until the changing was over.
"Master~, you look so handsome right now, may I kiss you?"
Charybdis pressed Zheng Ri against the wall. Seeing the clothes he was wearing now, combined with his face, Charybdis couldn't help but sigh, a silly smile appearing on his face.
"I think I can..."
"Thank you, Master. Even a maid needs your encouragement."
After saying that, Charybdis kissed Zheng Ri's lips directly, cutting off his words before he could finish speaking, or rather, kissing him back.
Charybdis gives off a soft and yielding feeling, making people unable to resist accepting her offerings. However, before one can properly enjoy the moment, Charybdis has already separated from them, and a brief look of satisfaction appears on their beautiful face.
"Master, I'm ready! Master!"
After saying that, Charybdis took Zheng Ri's hand and walked out. Then they went to Frederick's side and admired Zheng Ri, who had changed into a new outfit. Zheng Ri started to get a little nervous as they looked at her, but she still tried her best to pose normally for them to see.
"How about it?"
"Very good, my child~, you are so beautiful now..."
Seeing Zheng Ri dressed in a stylish and handsome outfit, Frederick happily held his face in his hand, afraid of missing a single precious moment of his present.
