Chen Ke said, "To avoid revealing our coordinates, we try not to contact each other, but they are on standby at all times."

Chen Rou pointed to the map: "Then let Ah Lang and the others be responsible for guarding the Taiwan Strait. However, although they are good at fighting, they are not good at long-range shooting. You will need to send two more people with them to keep watch."

Someone behind him chimed in, saying, "I saw him last time; Awei's marksmanship is quite good."

It was Yue Zhongqi who quietly led a displeased Nie Yao into the cockpit, then smiled and said, "Mrs. Nie."

Chen Ke said, "Then let's take the treasured sword. And Xiao Lin, you two are good marksmen. Take Nie Yao with you and go guard the sea."

Wang Baodao was displeased: "Isn't it always Captain Yue who guards the rear? Why should it be me?"

Yue Zhongqi laughed and said, "Who told you to get married after only seven days at home? I'm different from you. My boyfriend broke up with me, and I have two older brothers. Okay, stop rambling. I'll follow the eldest brother's orders."

Wang Baodao stomped his foot: "Captain Yue, you're unreliable! We agreed to get married as soon as we got back, how could you break up with your girlfriend?"

Chen Rou was also very concerned about this issue, because Yue Zhongqi was now praising her as her master's wife from her previous life.

In Yue Zhongqi's words, she was a fiery-tempered little chili pepper, not the kind of girl with a gentle personality. She also suffered because her son died when he was a teenager, which led to her developing depression and bipolar disorder.

He often smashes things around the house. After a tiring day, Yue Zhongqi still has to pull himself together to clean up the house when he gets home.

It's time for breakfast. Breakfast on the ship is very simple: millet porridge and steamed buns with some pickled mustard greens in the buns.

Chen Rou followed him into the corridor and saw Yue Zhongqi drinking porridge. She quickly asked, "Why did you break up with your boyfriend?"

Unlike women, men are generally somewhat resistant to marriage and usually get married under pressure from their parents. Men especially love getting married because once they get married, they can have a free cook and servant.

It's harsh to say, but it's the truth.

Yue Zhongqi was quite sad that they couldn't get married. He sighed and said, "Recently, we've stopped reforming and opening up, so we soldiers aren't popular anymore. That little chili pepper is dating a black marketeer who drives a Santana and has bought a courtyard house within the Second Ring Road. I'm still living in a single dormitory. The conditions aren't good enough, so we couldn't get married."

Chen Rou almost blurted out "okay!"

Because Little Chili had a very hard life in her previous life, but according to Yue Zhongqi's description, she now has a car and a courtyard house within the Second Ring Road, and has already entered the ranks of the wealthy. As long as nothing unexpected happens, she will live a very good life in this life.

As for Yue Zhongqi, he can keep looking. With his excellence, he can still find an excellent girl.

She still had things to discuss with Chen Ke and was about to leave when Yue Zhongqi said, "Hey, wait a minute."

He then pulled out a can of Coke, smiled, and said, "This is a gift for you."

Chen Rou smiled sincerely: "Wow, Captain Yue, you're so kind, you even remembered my hobby."

Nie Yao had just finished making porridge when he discovered that the cola he had brought had somehow ended up in Yue Zhongqi's hands. Also, what did he mean by "gift from him"? And Chen Rou took a sip and looked at it again: "Produced by our Shenzhen Cola Factory."

He added, "This isn't as sweet as the ones from other places, and it's not as fizzy, but it's delicious!"

Nie Yao is shy, doesn't know how to act shamelessly, and is also a little apprehensive about returning home.

Watching Chen Rou leave, he was about to fight Yue Zhongqi again when a sudden attack came. He had no experience living at sea, and most of his millet porridge spilled.

Just now, Nie Yao had been painstakingly wiping the floor and washing the carpet, expecting Chen Rou to come. But instead, it was Nie Zhao, that treacherous, cunning, and cold-hearted guy, who showed up. He was already furious enough.

But Yue Zhongqi, how could he dare? How could he possibly do that? He had always considered him a close friend.

Nie Yao was about to smash the bowl when Yue Zhongqi suddenly became serious and said, "You know, I really like Miss Chen."

This person has a straightforward personality, says what he thinks, and acts with integrity and honesty. Nie Yao admires him very much.

However, he had always been carefree and joking, so his sudden seriousness was a bit unusual for Nie Yao. He paused for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

"My feelings for her are genuine, but my actions are restrained by propriety. I like her and admire her, but that's all," Yue Zhongqi said.
