"You lose, you lose." Yamato laughed and pasted the note in his hand on Jiqi's wryly face, with a smile in his black eyes. "How's it going, am I amazing?" She asked happily holding up the note in her hand.

"Yes, yes, you're the best." After two days of getting along, Jiqi finally knew the other party's name - Yamato, the battleship with the strongest firepower in the illustrated book, and the last glory of the empire. He never thought that the other party would be a ship mother before he became a deep sea.

"It's good to know, I'm the strongest, you only have to lose in this little game." Yamato smiled proudly, looking at the other party's gentle smiling face, the heart that had been cold before became as gentle as a drizzle, and it was no longer as dry as before.

"Uh-huh, you're amazing." Ji Qi smiled and nodded, if he didn't deliberately think about the other party's previous cruelty now, it would be difficult for him to imagine that the girl with a bright smile in front of him would be the deep sea that was notorious for making countless admirals fearful. If you can live like this with her in the future, it's not impossible. He looked at Yamato and thought.

"What are you thinking?" She looked at the stunned young man and asked, she seemed to have forgotten the difference in identity between her and Jiqi, and instead behaved like a coquettish ship lady with the Admiral.

"It's nothing," Jiqi didn't want to tell her what he thought, but after looking at the other party's serious eyes, he was stunned and decided to speak. "I just thought it would be nice if we could keep doing this in the future."

"Is it always like this?" This sentence was like a tranquilizer, which made Yamato wake up instantly, and she looked at Jiqi in a daze, and the joy in her eyes gradually faded. "Jiqi, can you tell me how you became a Commander?" She suddenly raised her head and asked, closing the corners of her mouth tightly and not seeing the joy and sorrow.

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden?" Jiqi looked at her curiously, as if he didn't quite understand.

"I just suddenly want to hear the story of you and your ship's mother." Yamato muttered that she didn't know why she asked such a question, but she suddenly began to look forward to her future life, and in the future, she would become a life similar to his ship's mother.

"yes, I see." Jiqi nodded and began to tell his own story slowly. "You should know that the most important thing to become an admiral is to be born, and a noble birth can bring you closer to this dream, but I am not."

"You're not?" Yamato looked at him, as if he wanted to continue listening.

"You know what? I was just a slum kid who hovered between the hunger line of food and clothing every day. "Before I became a midshipman, I lived in the slums, living with garbage every day, but until that day, the principal of the Enterprise Academy, Mecarron, approached me and gave me a little hope as a child who had been living in darkness. Jiqi exhaled and continued, although he later learned that the seemingly kind old man was the mastermind behind all the plots, he was still grateful for his presence that day. After that day, I was found to have the talent of Admiral, which was the most important turning point in my life, and from that day on I entered the Corporate Academy as a trainee Admiral, and began four years of life day in and day out. ”

"The academy is boring, isn't it?" Yamato asked curiously, she had never been in a place like school as a ship girl and deep sea, but she had also heard of it.

"No, even though every day is the same life, I never feel bored and I never complain." Jiqi shook his head and said, "Because I know that these things are important to me. I still remember when I started entering school, they said that if you get the first place when you graduate, you will have a chance to have a ship girl, you know? How tempting is this for a poor man who can't even build a single time? At that time, I fantasized countless times that I could have a ship girl, even if it was just the most ordinary ship girl, but that was a great luxury for me at that time. ”

"Is it expensive to build a ship?" Yamato asked, although she was a ship mother before she became a deep sea, she couldn't understand how much resources it took to build a ship mother.

"For a nobleman with countless wealth, these resources may be nothing, but for a person who even needs to solve the problem of eating, this is simply an astronomical amount that I can't muster." Jiqi smiled bitterly and said, "So my favorite thing at that time was to stay in the library and look at the illustrated book with pictures of the ship's mother over and over again, holding that book and generating unrealistic conjectures, this was the only motivation I could support myself at that time, and my only idea at that time was that as long as I graduated with the first grade, I would have the opportunity to build a ship, and it would be possible to get the ship's mother, and it would be possible to become a veritable admiral, so every time I was in class, when the nobles were playing, I would always listen carefully. Every time they were impatient to cook, I would carefully cook it over and over again, just for the meal that would make the ship's lady laugh. ”

"And after that?" Yamato then asked, in fact, she knew that in the end, the other party graduated with perfect marks in all subjects, but she still wanted to hear him tell the rest of the story in person.

"Then I did what I dreamed of, and I threw everything I had into it, and it didn't disappoint me, and I built Wales, my first ship." When Ji Qi said this, he remembered the long-haired female knight, the lovely girl who liked to eat the food he cooked, and his first wedding ship.

"You love her a lot, don't you?" Yamato looked at Jiqi with a serious gaze and asked, she saw something different from the other party's eyes, it seemed that it was the love she hadn't understood yet.

"Yes, she, as my first ship's wife, was my only hope at that time. And she's also cute, although sometimes naughty. Ji Qi smiled and nodded, he now recalled the picture at that time, and felt extra warm and happy. Like a person who has been living in darkness and suddenly sees the light, he can give everything in order to protect that only light.

"So how many wedding ships do you have now?" Yamato was stunned and suddenly looked up and asked. She wondered how many shipwives in the town guard were so lucky to get his favor.

"Wedding ship?" Jiqi thought for a moment and said with a wry smile, "There should be three." The wedding ships in his eyes are Lexington, Wales and the lovely otaku Noah's Ark. Although the last one had not yet been determined, he could clearly feel that he was getting closer to her.

"Three, you scumbag, there are so many wedding ships!" Yamato pressed Jiqi under him as he spoke, and his tone was righteous, but the corners of his mouth with a light smile betrayed her, telling Jiqi that she was joking.

"I think there are only three, why are they scum." Jiqi laughed and shouted under Yamato's body, constantly struggling powerlessly.

"Hmph, I said that you are a scumbag or a scumbag, and the refutation is invalid." Yamato scratched the waist of this scumbag hard, as if he was taking revenge on him, a scumbag who cheated on girls.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, Yamato, you spare me." Jiqi laughed and trembled, and finally weakly raised the white flag head.

"Know it's wrong?" Yamato smiled proudly, "Then do you dare to deceive the girl's emotions?" She questioned as she continued to tickle.

"No...... No, I don't dare, I really don't dare. "Although Jiqi wanted to say when I cheated on the girl's feelings, but the person had to bow his head under the eaves, and he could only admit it temporarily.

"Don't you dare, do you?" Yamato stopped and asked again, and clear water began to flow in his eyes.

"Yes, I don't dare." Ji Qi swore and raised his hand in reply.

"So you have deceived my emotions now, do you think I can also be your wedding ship?" Yamato suddenly leaned down and whispered in Jiqi's ear, the breath of cherry blossoms exhaling that made his cheeks red.

He looked at the other party's quiet side face, stunned, stupid for a few seconds, and then nodded slightly, with a smile in his eyes.
