Chapter 101: Hmm, I’m Hungry

Fifth Army warship, inside the conference room.

The generals and officers of the expeditionary force who came to contact us had strange expressions on their faces.

He stared in disbelief at Si Ming who was holding up his laptop and replying to messages.

Openly daydreaming and losing focus during a meeting?

And he curled the corners of his mouth?

Oh my god

Is this still the evil spirit of the Fifth Army?

Could it be that they got up the wrong way this morning?

Last night, the Fifth Army and the Expeditionary Force acted separately.

Si Ming is responsible for rescuing civilian aircraft carriers.

The expeditionary force is responsible for capturing Joseph, a space pirate whose danger level exceeds S level.

It was not until several hours later that the expeditionary force learned that the Fifth Army had taken advantage of the situation.

The real Joseph was caught.

The one they caught was just the unlucky guy who was swapped by Joseph.

Colonel Snake of the expeditionary force was so angry that he couldn't sleep all night.

Calculating that the time was almost up, he took his men to the warship of the Fifth Army.

I tried to regain the initiative, but ended up being led in roundabout ways.

Snake wanted to take Joseph from Si Ming.

Even if you just pay me some compensation, that's fine.

After all, it was the expeditionary force that was tasked with capturing Joseph.

Si Ming led a squadron to come just to assist them.

Colonel Snake is a bit narrow-minded.

If he had not been worried that the Fifth Army was too powerful and would make the expeditionary force a foil, he would not have led Si Ming away, and naturally he would not have sent Joseph in front of Si Ming.

Just as Ning Yuan had guessed before, he was really almost crying with anger.

This time, all his military achievements were ruined by his own stupidity.

As Si Ming's adjutant, Ning Yuan always waited by his side during meetings.

He saw that Colonel Snake had a heartbroken look on his face when he first arrived, and now he was staring at the major general in disbelief, and he couldn't stop laughing in his heart.

All the previous frustration was swept away.

After he had boasted enough, he cleared his throat quietly and used a look with a mysterious and meaningful look to remind his "upright" major general to come back to his senses.

When Si Ming heard the noise, he raised his head and looked around casually.

The sharp and cold eyes are like advanced detectors.

You can tell what everyone is thinking at a glance.

Those who were originally stealing glances at Si Ming immediately retracted their gazes.

Act like a quail.

Colonel Snake took advantage of the opportunity and tried to persuade Si Ming.

But before he could say anything, Si Ming raised his hand and stopped him.

Si Ming: "Colonel Snake, Joseph has been captured. In my opinion, there is no need to go through the tedious handover procedures to transfer him to the expeditionary force's warship. We can immediately rush back to the capital planet and bring him to justice."

Snake: "But."

Si Ming: "I have something else to do, please help yourself, Colonel Snake."

Without waiting for Snake to continue, Si Ming strode out of the meeting room.

The commander left, but the officers of the Fifth Army who remained in the conference room couldn't just leave.

Only Ning Yuan understands Si Ming.

He always felt that Si Ming's steps when he left were a bit too big.

He thought for a moment and immediately stood up, saluted Colonel Snake and hurried after him.

Stepping out of the conference room door, Ning Yuan trotted over to catch up with Si Ming.

There was a subtle curiosity in his eyes.

Ning Yuan: "Major General, what are you doing?"

Si Ming: "There should be some basic food supplies purchased on the warship, right?"

Ingredients?

Si Ming's words were incoherent, but fortunately Ning Yuan was quick-witted.

I immediately thought of a possibility.

His eyes brightened by at least eight degrees, and he nodded seriously at Si Ming with a carefree attitude: "Yes, yes! Major General, does Miss Ye need it?"

If Miss Ye wants to cook, can he also go and help her?

I miss the taste of braised shrimp balls.

Si Ming took a quick glance and noticed Ning Yuan's expression. His eyes narrowed, and although his face was still nonchalant, the next words he said made Ning Yuan shudder: "As my adjutant, you should return to the conference room now and let Colonel Snake feel the integrity and enthusiasm of our Fifth Army instead of saying meaningless words."

Integrity and passion?

Does their Fifth Army have such a thing?

Ning Yuan was abandoned by Si Ming.

Staying where you are, thinking about life quietly by yourself.

-

After receiving Si Ming's reply, Ye Jiaojiao suddenly remembered that she had not had time to wash up.

Taking advantage of this moment, she quickly took a quick shower.

She had just tidied herself up when Si Ming came over.

Ye Jiaojiao chose a light green long denim overalls today.

It is paired with a white lettered T-shirt.

Although she is only a little over 1.6 meters tall, this dress makes her legs look particularly slender and her proportions perfect.

She tied her long black hair into a small bun.

There were a few strands of hair casually draped beside her ears.

When people stand there, they are overwhelmed by the feeling of being a carefree and innocent elf.

Fresh and energetic.

It was the first time that Si Ming saw Ye Jiaojiao like this.

In my mind, the image of the former Ye Jiaojiao gradually began to blur.

On a whim, Si Ming imitated the way Ye Jiaojiao had greeted him into the room yesterday and waved at her: "Come on, I'll take you to the dining area."

"Yeah." Ye Jiaojiao grinned and followed Si Ming obediently.

Along the way, they occasionally encountered soldiers from the Fifth Army.

When these people saw a girl following behind their major general, their eyes widened one by one. A few youngsters accidentally exclaimed, causing Si Ming to glare at them.

Ye Jiaojiao followed behind Si Ming and watched the show all the way.

I find it very interesting.

Without noticing, Si Ming, who was a step away from her, suddenly stopped.

The small bridge of her nose hit his iron-hard back head-on.

"Hmm." Ye Jiaojiao covered her nose, her face wrinkled in pain. Little did she know that Si Ming was even more nervous than her. His muscles were tense, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes: "I'm sorry."

"Don't blame you, I didn't walk properly." Ye Jiaojiao didn't notice Si Ming's confusion and said it was her own fault. When Si Ming heard her say that, his muscles tensed even more: "It's red."

"Ah?" Ye Jiaojiao was puzzled. Si Ming subconsciously raised his hand and tapped Ye Jiaojiao's nose. When his fingertips touched the warm and delicate skin, Si Ming's mind went blank. He immediately withdrew his hand and took two steps back to increase the distance between them.

Si Ming, who had just been very considerate and reliable in putting a military uniform on Ye Jiaojiao yesterday, now looked like a child who had done something wrong, with his eyes lowered and his head down, remaining silent.

In the end, it was Ye Jiaojiao who broke the strange silence first.

Because her stomach growled again.

As for Si Ming

Whatever.

It is more important to fill your stomach.

Ye Jiaojiao: "Are we there yet?"

On the warship, all you can see are various metal materials.

When Ye Jiaojiao first boarded a civilian aircraft carrier, she was embarrassed because she couldn't find the door. When she saw Si Ming stop, she thought they had arrived at the dining area.

The soft and gentle words beside his ear made Si Ming turn his head and look into Ye Jiaojiao's clear and innocent eyes again. He was silent for two seconds and then turned and left without saying a word.

Ye Jiaojiao scratched her head in confusion and hurried to catch up.

Looking at Si Ming's tall back.

She had an inexplicable feeling that Si Ming was not in a good mood.

Could it be that Si Ming didn’t have lunch either?

Are you hungry?
