Portland put his hands on his hips and was obviously not satisfied. "Of course I came to visit you. I also care about your well-being, Commander!" Commander Su nodded expressionlessly, "Let me guess... Is it something related to Indy-chan?" "P!" Portland was shocked. "How did the commander know that? Ah, that's secondary... secondary. The main thing is that I'm worried about your condition!" Su Xin would not believe it. It had been a long time since she saw this sister-con talk to her. "I know. After all, Indy-chan is really cute." "Is that so? Indy-chan is so cute! Wait... why are you also calling her 'Indy-chan'... didn't you call her 'Sister Indy' before?" Of course the young commander would not admit that he had grown a lot taller and became more approachable, so he had the confidence to treat them as equals and changed the way he addressed some of the ship girls. But for now...apparently everyone is taking it well. But the focus of Portland's visit was certainly not on the title, so she stopped asking and quickly explained her purpose: "Commander... Indy-chan has ignored me for two days, sixteen hours, eight minutes and five seconds! Ah... Now it's seven seconds! What should I do, Commander——!" ps: Only one update today... I will post all chapters together, so if you only see one new chapter, it means... GKD!(')
Chapter 449 Family Affairs 4 "How did you...make her angry...?" Portland was about to speak eagerly, but Su Xin interrupted her as if she had suddenly understood something, "Oh... I see, you must have been looking at those weird things again, right?" "How can that be something weird! That's art! It's Indy and... and..." Portland suddenly blushed and became embarrassed, "and my art... hehe..." To be honest, Commander Su Xiao could not understand the fun of looking at that kind of thing at all. Although she had no right to speak without investigation, Su Xin still knew the general content of Portland's so-called "collection". Su Xiaozhi had no interest in this kind of "storybook" with sparse text, simple plot and pieced together from scattered pictures. Besides, she is still a minor. But this did not prevent her from disapproving of Portland's behavior. "I remember when you built Indy, I gave all those piles of books to Sister Hood to burn... Did you buy new ones?" Portland, who probably knew about this, nodded confidently, even with a little pride, "It took me a long time to collect the previous ones. I almost thought they were out of print..." "...did you find it online?" "Eh? No." Portland was a little embarrassed. "Many words are from Sakura Empire or Eastern Empire. I don't know how to search..." "So... you bought it from Ming Miao?" "Yes, yes. As long as I tell her the general plot of the story, she will bring the book to me in less than two days. Well... I am so grateful to her!" Su Xin looked at the happy expression on Portland's face and silently swallowed back the words "It must be very expensive". She glanced at the time, then cleared her throat and decided to make a quick decision. "When you say 'ignore you', do you mean not talking to you?" "Uh-huh!" "What about the others? Are there other interactions? Will they pour you a drink? Or help you do something?" Portland was a little confused, but still nodded, "Yes, even though she ignored me, I think the sisterhood, well, sisterhood is still there!" Su Xin hummed, thought for a while under Portland's hopeful eyes, and guessed, "Is it possible that Indy-chan...isn't angry with you?"
"How could that be?! She clearly loved being with me and talking to me before. Indy-chan is the cutest when she's a little slow in responding!!" "But I remember that when it was first built, she had already seen your 'treasures'." The little commander recalled carefully: "She said it was metaphysics, so she stuffed all those books in there." “…Yes!” Seeing that Portland was reasonable, Su Xin nodded with satisfaction, "So it's probably not because of the books you read that she was angry about. Think about what else she said to you." Portland frowned when he heard that. It was the first time that she thought so seriously. The young commander was quite pleased with her and secretly sighed that she was rarely serious. He didn't expect that after just a few breaths, her true colors were revealed. “So… I can watch it openly from now on?! Great—!!” Su Xin was stunned for a moment, sighed helplessly, glanced at the door, and then raised her voice, "Ah, Indy-chan, why are you here?" "Wu--Ahem...Indy-chan?! I-I didn't mean to read those books. I was just joking with the Commander-- Portland looked at the empty cubicle entrance behind her with a stiff expression. No matter how stupid she was, she knew she was being fooled. So she turned around and looked at Su Xin, who was pursing her lips, with resentment. "….I want to make you cough, to make you serious…so have you thought about it?" "Yeah, right?" Portland nodded hesitantly, "Indy-chan said that she hopes I don't need to take care of her too much, and go out and play more... or something..." "But I don't think this should count, because I definitely won't go. How can anything be more important than Indy-chan...ah." Right after he finished speaking, the famous sister-con of White Eagle seemed to suddenly remember something. He glanced slyly at the commander who was making the bed, and when he saw that the other party didn't seem to care much, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Su Xin really didn't care about this. She didn't think of herself as the center of the port area. At most, she was just a nominal superior. She still couldn't beat many sisters, or even the small boss who didn't have much work to do. The problem in Portland was not actually described very clearly, and the information revealed in a few words was not detailed. Su Xin could only make some rough guesses. "Is it possible that...Indy-chan is just feeling guilty because you spend too much time with her?" "Huh? How could that be!" Portland couldn't understand at all. "Isn't it normal to like your sister and revolve around her every day?!" Su Xin actually sometimes has that feeling, a feeling of guilt for enjoying the efforts of others even though she knows she cannot give the same amount of affection in return. Seeing that she didn't say anything, Portland casually gave an example, "Look at Ninghai and Pinghai, aren't they together every day?" The little commander made a brief comparison and found something wrong, "But the two of them would go out together, didn't you take Indy-chan out to play with others?" Portland was stunned when he heard that. "I did think so, but Indy-chan... didn't seem to want to go out, so I stayed at home with her every day." "I think... she might be afraid of interrupting your normal social life. You can try to talk to her and take her with you to visit other people after getting her consent. This way you can stay with her without worrying about her feeling guilty... How can you... Sample?" Portland was silent for a few breaths, then praised, "What a good idea! Why didn't I think of it? This way I can create more memories of... uh, spending time with Indy-chan, right?" Commander Su, who had managed to fool the guy, breathed a sigh of relief, took another bottle of milk and started drinking. Unexpectedly, Portland jumped for joy a few times and then suddenly turned around. "Thank you, Commander. To express my gratitude... I can send you the only full-color fanfiction collection I have!" Su Xin:??? Portland stood up and patted Su Xin's quilt twice. "Boss Ming kindly sold me the electronic file for half the price. If I save it in the cloud disk, I won't have to worry about losing it."
Commander Su declined, of course. "Well...thank you, but forget it. I'm not an adult yet." "This is art! You can collect it first..." Portland moved closer. "Because it's a fan collection, there are many different protagonists. I only cut out the parts I want to see. The full version has not been deleted. You can collect it yourself. Pick it!" Su Xin was in a panic. If someone found this file in the future, she would have no way to explain it. "I don't want it. Didn't you say something like 'I won't look at it again'? Is it really okay to regret it now?" "You just said that Indy-chan ignored me and it had nothing to do with watching that... but of course I still want to watch it~" Su Xin paused, "Hmm? Indy-chan?" "Hey~ Commander, you can't fool me this time. You also said that Indy-chan knew about this, so you can't scare me with this!" The room was strangely quiet for two seconds, and then a familiar voice that Portland loved very much came from behind her. "......elder sister?" Portland: Cardiac Arrest Chapter 450 Family Affairs 5 Portland, feeling nervous, followed Indy. Su Xin, who couldn't help coughing, breathed a sigh of relief and gently rubbed her stomach full of milk. Looking at the time, it was already noon, so her lunch would have to be postponed again. The other ship girls either ate ready-to-eat meals such as sushi and bread prepared before departure, or bought hot meals sold on the train. As for Su Xin, she could probably only drink porridge. Thinking of this, Commander Su, who preferred staple food, sighed. Yixian, who happened to have taken a long time to come back, heard it and thought something had happened again. "What's wrong? Why are you sighing all of a sudden? Is the favor Portland asked you to give too difficult?" "Eh? Ah..." Su Xin was stunned when she saw Shi Yixian, thinking that it was another ship girl who needed her help. "No, I just think about having porridge at noon, and I... um... don't like it." Yixian chuckled and walked forward, tucking Su Xin, who was half leaning against him, back into the bed. "Who made you suddenly sick? Why didn't you think of adding two more clothes?" Su Xin hid half of her face in the quilt and muttered, "I was just in a hurry to get out..." "Don't run around in the wind until you recover, or you'll have to eat porridge for a longer period of time." Su Xin sighed, "I know." Yixian nodded in satisfaction, sat back on the opposite bunk, propped up his chin, looked at the milk on the table and asked casually: "Did anyone come here just now? Portland shouldn't give you this." "Yes, it was given by Spey. She just came to see me. Sister Helena and the others also came... ahem." "Got it. Susu, you'd better stop talking for now. Otherwise, your throat will get inflamed, and it will be even more uncomfortable when you drink the porridge." Yixian took out the thermometer and handed it to the little commander, while giving him detailed instructions. Su Xin took the cold thermometer obediently, and after holding it under her armpit while enduring the cold, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, pressed the corners of the quilt tightly, and wrapped herself up like a spring roll. Yixian took a look and held back his laughter. He took out a fried spring roll and took a light bite in front of Commander Su. The slight "crunch" sound made the young commander swallow his saliva silently. "Well, do you want to eat?" Commander Su paused and shook his head obediently.
"Really? Everything in the ship's space remains in the same state as when it was put in, right? So..." Yixian stretched out his hand and gently pinched off a small piece of crispy skin, squeezing it slightly, and a crisp breaking sound was heard immediately, "It's delicious." Su Xin sniffed quietly again, but she was still making excuses, "I'm sick... I can only drink porridge, so I'd better not eat..." I thought Yixian would argue with her for a few more words, but he just replied "What a pity", then put the remaining two-thirds of the spring roll to his lips and took another bite. Commander Su, who had only eaten some bland food in the morning, was extremely greedy and couldn't help but exclaimed "ah". When he came to his senses, he saw Yixian's mischievous eyes and immediately realized that he had been fooled. Yixian is well versed in the art of pushing and pulling, so he stopped when he saw the good results. He held the last third and leaned over to pass it over, "You are sick and cannot eat the whole thing. At most, I can give you a little taste." Su Xin hesitated, fearing that the other party would quickly retract his hand when she opened her mouth, but thinking that Yixian was not likely to make such a joke, unlike Tiancheng, she bit it as she was told, and changed her taste as she wished. Yixian took a handkerchief to wipe her fingers, then leaned forward with her chin propped up to look at the little conductor, carefully and inconspicuously. When the other party met her eyes, Yixian immediately asked her: "It's been so long, we should reach our destination in a few days. It should be warmer once we move into the apartment. I heard it has a heating system." "Well, it's spicy..." Yixian smiled, the doting look in his eyes almost overflowing, "Have you made any follow-up plans?" Su Xin licked her lips and replied, "What are your plans?" Yixian glanced at the other person's sparkling cherry lips and turned his eyes to the foggy window. "Well... a lot, battle plans, daily tasks, and some odds and ends." "Yes, Sister Tiancheng and I discussed it before we set off. The specific situation..." Su Xin thought for a moment, took out her phone and shook it at Yixian, "I'll send it to you? "No, no, just give your orders as usual once you've made your plans. I'm actually more curious about... the issue of the temporary secretary ship. Have you thought about who should be the next one?" "Ah... I haven't thought about it yet... Rafi is taking it very seriously." "Well, I know, but the rotation system is to let everyone get to know each other. Although little Laffite is very suitable, but... the ship girls in the port area all want this opportunity, right?" "But..." Commander Su hesitated, lowered his voice and whispered to Yixian, "If it's Sister Akagi and Sister Atago... I always feel a little unsafe..." Yixian laughed, "You still know that you are in danger, how rare." "What's so difficult about that..." Su Xin said expressionlessly, "The time you went on a long journey - well... forget it, it was just... very dangerous." Yixian naturally didn't forget that incident, which is why she prefers Laffite to the Sakura Empire shipgirl. "You see, although Sheffield is very good at everything, there are things she is not good at, right?" Commander Su learned everything by himself. "Are you talking about cooking?" The cooking master nodded and shook his head, "Almost. I mean the food safety issue. The Royal Ship Girls seem... not very sensitive to food." "Well...what do you want to say, sister?" Yixian propped up his chin and sighed in a complaining manner, "Alas... I clearly already 'recommended myself' last time, but Susu still didn't consider me?" As soon as Commander Su recalled it, she remembered it all, and the guilt in her heart bubbled up. She had done nothing wrong, but for no reason she began to feel guilty. "I think... Sister, you have to take care of the meals, and you have to help me deal with the documents. I guess you will also have to help me communicate with others for this event... Isn't it too tiring?" "But Yixian also wants to know more about the commander." Su Xin stopped talking, and Yixian continued, "And I can help you identify the food made by other sisters, so that when you recover from your illness, you can accept their kindness without worry, right?"
Although it sounds very attractive, Commander Su Xiao still decided to discuss it with her current secretary ship Lafite. After all, it is not very polite to change people on her own, and she really thinks Lafite is a good person. Unexpectedly, after dinner, Lafite, to whom Yixian had promised to "come here often", arrived. After the three of them chatted for a while, White Rabbit brought up the matter first. "...I think Sister Yixian is very nice, and I highly recommend Lafite..." Su Xin was stunned for a moment before she figured out how to ask, "...Huh?" "Temporary secretary ship..." Lafite twisted in Yixian's arms and found the most comfortable position, "Sister Yixian, very good."
