After receiving the meal, Qiao Xuejun shared it with Zhao Xian. She gave half of each dish on her plate to Zhao Xian, and naturally transferred half from Zhao Xian's plate to her own.
Zhao Xian looked at her actions and wanted to refuse, letting Qiao Xuejun eat by herself, but seeing Qiao Xuejun sharing food with him, he wanted to watch and remember it carefully and was reluctant to interrupt her at all.
Ren Wangwang, observing this scene nearby, teased, "Captain, no wonder you were so welcoming to Teacher Qiao. Turns out there's a benefit! Seriously—separate dining!"
Zhao Xian raised his eyes, his expression unchanged, but with a smile in his eyes: "Jealous?"
Ren Wangwang: “…” Well, let’s take their captain for example. He has never known what shame is. He even gasped when someone called him fat.
Ren Wangwang didn't respond, leaving Zhao Xian feeling a bit disappointed. He picked up the spoon, then suddenly thought of something and looked at Yuan Yuanfang: "Director Yuan."
When Yuan Yuanfang heard Zhao Xian calling her, she looked up, stopped what she was doing, and waited seriously for Zhao Xian's words. Now with the vegetable transaction involved, she raised the importance of the negotiation to another level.
Ren Wangwang, however, habitually felt that something was slightly wrong.
Zhao Xian said in a businesslike tone, "I heard that the people inside Haibao are worried that they will be taken over by me, Zhao Xian, after the merger."
Everyone in the sea fortress's faces froze slightly, it was indeed so.
Zhao Xian said frankly, "As you've all seen these past few days, the base has its own rules for allocating resources. Even I stay within those rules and never take more than a fraction." Zhao Xian tapped the edge of his plate lightly. "To be honest, today is also my first time eating a nutritious meal."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yuanfang nodded in agreement. The others in Haibao also paid attention to what Zhao Xian said and agreed.
That was indeed the case. From what they had seen in the past few days, Zhao Xian had the same configuration as the patrol team and had no special privileges.
Some of their previous ideas were indeed biased.
Sun Linlie had to admit: "Lord Zhao does not seek personal gain and sticks to his principles."
Next, Zhao Xian should ask them to merge, right?
Yuan Yuanfang perked up and thought about how to respond to Zhao Xian's next words.
Zhao Xian had a smile in his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "Teacher Qiao gave it to me."
Qiao Xuejun had been listening very attentively, but when this sentence came out, she paused: "..."
Zhao Xian emphasized, "It wasn't my intention to break the rules. It was just that Teacher Qiao was willing to share with me, and I couldn't refuse such a kind offer, so I gladly accepted it."
Ren Wangwang couldn't bear to look at it, so he lowered his head, covered his forehead with his hands, and shrugged his shoulders suspiciously.
really.
He knew the captain was going to do this. After such a long buildup, with Sea Fortress concerns and base regulations, it all came down to this: Teacher Qiao and I shared a nutritious meal!
Afraid that someone might have missed the food Teacher Qiao shared with him, he specially took it out and marked it to show off.
Yuan Yuanfang was stunned. She opened her mouth but couldn't say anything. The others were the same. Their eyes involuntarily focused on Zhao Xian's plate of food.
Sun Linlie habitually praised, speaking simply: "The relationship between the Lord and the expert teacher is really good. They understand each other."
Yuan Yuanfang looked at Sun Linlie. It had to be said that those stupid people really couldn't understand what the other person was talking about.
Zhao Xian was very satisfied with this statement and agreed: "Indeed."
Qiao Xuejun said stiffly, "Let's eat first. We can talk after dinner."
