Elder brother's garrison

Page 283

Oh, I just realized that I shouldn't say that in front of my suitor.

Xiao Bai was also caught up in the strange atmosphere in front of him and couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

“You…” The young man from before pointed a trembling finger at Xiaobai.

No wonder, hearing this kind of news suddenly would be unbearable for anyone.

"Are you the younger sister-in-law?" The men's eyes brightened even more.

"Huh?" Now it was Xiaobai's turn to be stunned.

"Sister-in-law?!" Seeing that Xiaobai was only surprised and did not refuse, the men took it as an admission of the position and became very polite to her. "So, little sister is Lu Yun's sister-in-law. We are so sorry for not being respectful!"

"Aren't you surprised?" Xiaobai asked curiously.

"What's so surprising?"

"Chi, is it true that Sister Lu Yun is already someone else's wife?" Xiao Bai asked.

“We know that.” To everyone’s alarm, the men in front of them nodded in unison. “After all, she’s wearing a ring.”

Xiaobai underestimated the bottom line of men.

It seems that by this point the men realized that Xiaobai didn't seem to know much about Akagi either.

"Little sister, do you not usually live with Lu Yun?" the men asked.

"Mm." Xiaobai nodded shyly.

Seeing Xiaobai's reaction, the men, eager to show off, immediately started offering explanations all at once.

During this explanation, Xiaobai also learned a little about Chicheng.

Akagi works for a pretty good company. Her position isn't high, but as with sales, the more you do, the more you earn. Akagi is beautiful and elegant, so she naturally thrives in her role and does very well.

These men also encountered Akagi, who was out looking for work, through a series of coincidences.

Then he was captured by this woman.

Men are such superficial creatures; even if they say they like you for who you are, they'll still start by getting to know you based on your appearance. Akagi's stunning looks and elegant demeanor captivated them.

However, they also knew that Akagi was wearing a ring and was a married man, so their burning passion cooled down.

But as time went by, they gradually discovered that Akagi didn't have a husband, or rather, her husband had never lived with her, which made their thoughts start to wander.

Rumors began to circulate among Akagi's suitors that she was divorced or that her husband had passed away.

As if they had received a royal decree, these people rekindled their passion and began to formally pursue Chi Cheng.

"How long have you been pursuing him?" Xiaobai asked the man in front of her.

"I've been pursuing him for six months." The man in front of me scratched his head.

"I'm three months along."

"It's been a year."

"I've been pursuing her for a year and a half."

One by one, these people stated their time.

That took quite a long time.

"Didn't Sister Lu Yun say anything about your pursuit?" Xiao Bai asked.

The men in front of her, upon hearing this, all became embarrassed: "Yes, she did say she wanted to be alone."

However, this level of rejection did not dampen the men's enthusiasm; on the contrary, it had the opposite effect.

She really isn't with her husband anymore!

The man in front of Xiaobai looked at her and they smiled awkwardly at each other.

Xiaobai is the younger sister of Chicheng's so-called "husband," so it seems a bit shameless of me to be poaching her from someone else's relationship.

Xiao Bai clenched his fist.

Just as the men in front of him thought, Xiaobai was very uncomfortable.

After her brother passed away, someone actually pursued the ship girl who was her brother's love interest.

Of course, it's normal for Xiaobai to know this. Akagi is an excellent ship girl in every way. Even as a woman, she is considered quite perfect by Lexington. It would be strange if no man was interested in such a person in human society.

However, as Lu Yun's sister, Xiao Bai still felt very uncomfortable.

"Little sister, are you angry?" It seems that the men who are pursuing Akagi are all somewhat well-mannered, and after their initial excitement, they gradually realize the current situation.

"Am I angry?" Xiaobai asked.

"Haha...haha," the men chuckled dryly.

Xiao Bai lowered his head.

"Oh, by the way, do you know where the other person who was with Sister Lu Yun went?" Xiao Bai put aside her uncomfortable feelings and asked the men in front of her.

"another?"

"She must have lived with her, like a younger sister, I think."

"What's your name?"

I suspect Kaga is using a pseudonym, so it would be better to describe his appearance.

Xiaobai described some of Kaga's characteristics.

The men in front of them all fell silent.

—It seems Kaga left earlier than I thought.

Xiaobai then asked the men in front of her about Akagi, inquiring about Akagi's recent life.

One has to admire these suitors; in some ways, they could even be compared to stalkers.

Akagi stopped working two or three months ago and stayed at home all day. Occasionally, when she saw someone come out and wanted to talk to them, this gentle woman would glare at her with an unprecedentedly fierce expression and drive her away.

As for why Akagi suddenly stopped working and seemed like a different person, there are many theories. The most plausible one is that Akagi received a phone call while working one day, and then seemed to lose her mind, not coming to work for several days, and finally quit her job.

However, this period of about two or three months is quite delicate.

It roughly coincided with the time when Xiaobai became the admiral.

After asking almost everything she wanted to know, a long time had passed. The men in front of her were all eager to show off and leave a positive impression on Xiaobai, so they were all working very hard.

Xiao Bai bowed to the men in front of him and said, "Thank you, uncles."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Seeing how sensible this younger sister-in-law was, the men's goodwill towards Xiaobai increased greatly.

“Hey little sister, could you…” At this moment, the young man from before also started to sniff around shyly, “Just mention me to Lu Yun a couple of times, okay?”

"Little sister, could you mention me too, just once, okay?"

"And me and me!"

A beautiful woman is never short of admirers, and these men, when their chance came, were all eager to seize it.

Just as Xiaobai was about to say something, a gentle breeze blew up from behind.

She felt someone put their hand on her shoulder.

Xiao Bai turned around.

Having regained consciousness, Akagi had dressed and dressed herself, and was standing behind her.

As Bismarck said before, ship girls without their ship equipment activated are no different from ordinary people; they can get drunk and get injured. However, as soon as they activate their ship equipment, the power of the ship equipment will instantly heal their physical injuries.

This drunkenness can also be seen as a manifestation of trauma.

The smell of alcohol on Akagi is no longer noticeable.

Her long hair was neatly combed down her back, her white shirt was properly tucked into her coat, and she wore a skirt, completely suppressing her previous unrestrained behavior.

"Miss Lu Yun! Hello! You..." The man saw Akagi come out, and although he didn't know how Akagi had gotten behind Xiaobai without anyone noticing, he was still delighted and quickly introduced himself to Akagi.

Looking at the men in front of him, Akagi's eyes turned cold, and his fierce aura burst forth like an arrow nocked on a bowstring.

"Get out!" Akagi shouted fiercely.

These men seemed to have never seen Akagi so angry before. They trembled involuntarily at her single word and took several steps back.

"Disgusting!" Akagi pulled Xiaobai and Luolian back into the building.

From beginning to end, these suitors did not utter another word.

Chicheng led Xiaobai and Luolian into the dormitory building, walking up the quiet corridor.

Xiao Bai was also startled by Chi Cheng's earlier "get lost," and her heart is still pounding.

...I might make Akagi very uncomfortable by talking to those people.

Xiao Bai felt guilty when she thought about this.

At this moment, Akagi also stopped, released his grip on Shiro's hand, and turned his head away.

Akagi squatted down and put her hands on Shiro's shoulders.

Akagi's expression was surprisingly not angry, but rather one of indescribable embarrassment.

“I have nothing to do with them, I don’t know them!” Chi Cheng said to Xiao Bai. “They just came to my building on their own. I didn’t want to cause a scene, so I didn’t say anything too harsh!”

"what?"

"...In other words, I didn't have an affair! I'm very honest!" Akagi held Shiro's hand, a ring sparkling on her ring finger. "Believe me!"

Akagi looked at Shiro with a guilty expression, like a child who had done something wrong facing an elder.

"Huh?" Xiaobai didn't know how to react.

Chapter Recommendation: "I Tear Heroic Spirits Apart in the Type-Moon World"

One day, I found a note signed by Gudako, and then I opened the door to a new world.

Who will save Britain from its crisis?

Why did that tyrant of Rome become so mired in a quagmire that he could not extricate himself?

What caused the feud between the Black and White Saints of France?

What kind of clash will the First Emperor of China and Japan have?

Rosen, seated on the sofa, swirled his wine glass, gazing calmly at the world filled with heroic spirits, and chuckled softly:

"Dear bosses, isn't it time to settle the Saint Quartz owed?"

Chapter 359 Beer Monster Akagi

Xiaobai had previously thought that Akagi might not like those people, and that if he went over and talked to them about Akagi, it might make Akagi feel that her life and privacy had been violated and make her angry.

However, Akagi's current performance doesn't seem to match Xiaobai's prediction.

Akagi looked at Shiro without any anger in her eyes, but rather with a hint of... fear that Shiro might be angry?

This development is quite interesting.

"An affair?" Xiaobai repeated the two words that Chicheng had just said.

"No!" Akagi vehemently denied.

"Ah... um." Xiaobai nodded.

After seeing Shiro nod, Akagi breathed a sigh of relief and released her grip on Shiro's hand, saying, "Ah...that's great..."

Chicheng slowly buried her head into Xiaobai's belly.

"I thought you were going to think of me as a promiscuous woman..."

"Don't you like me talking to those people?" Xiaobai asked.

Akagi raised her head: "It's alright."

It seems that Akagi isn't angry about his actions, which is great.

"Akagi, don't you like those people?"

“I don’t like it. I clearly told them that I already have a lover,” Akagi explained to Shiro. “But they still keep blocking my building’s entrance, and I can’t get rid of them no matter what I do.”

"So that's how it is." Seeing Akagi's performance, the slight discomfort she felt in her heart dissipated.

If Akagi really has someone else she likes, Shiro won't force her to stay by his side and make her a widow for her brother. That would be a selfish act that disrespects ship girls. But if Akagi is willing, that would be even better.
