Chapter 219 updated the illustration of "Captain of the Central Flag·Skadi".
"Commander! Try my cooking!"
Roland ran out from somewhere, holding a plate of delicious food in her hand, looking at Wu Jie with anticipation.
Everyone was almost done with work at this time, so it was indeed the right time for Roland to come over.
Wu Jie nodded and looked at it carefully. This was a lemon-marinated raw fish dish that was quite famous in America. It looked both colorful and fragrant. Wu Jie couldn't help but secretly praise Roland for her good cooking skills.
So he took the food, put it on the table, and then gently picked up a piece with his fork and tasted it.
Roland stared at Wu Jie expectantly, hoping to get the commander's comments.
After a while, Wu Jie's eyes lit up and he said, "Roland, have you been making this dish since you were a child?"
Roland was stunned at first, then shocked: "Ah, sir, sir, how did you know that?"
Roland was so shocked that she stuttered when she spoke.
She thought her dish would be criticized, or called mediocre, or something else. Because this was the dish she had made since she was a child, she couldn't find another one she could make, so she had to use her most common dish.
Having cultivated this skill since she was little, Roland has both confidence and insecurity in her craft. She fears the commander's disdain, yet also looks forward to his evaluation. This conflicting feeling inevitably makes her anxious and worried.
But what she didn't expect was that the commander could see through her cooking experience at once. The commander was too amazing. Could it be that he was so good at food?
Wu Jie smiled slightly. "It's sour but not fishy, sweet but not astringent, with a refreshing and delicate taste, and it tastes quite like home. If this isn't a dish someone has been practicing since childhood, it's impossible to make it taste this good. That's why I asked Roland if you've been practicing this dish since childhood."
I see! Commander is truly amazing!
Roland's eyes were now filled with little hearts. The young girl was filled with admiration for the commander, mixed with other emotions.
Roland immediately asked, "Sir! May I ask, are you married?"
…
…
"Eh——?!" Wu Jie was stunned.
As soon as these words were spoken, several eyes were focused on him!
Wu Jie was sweating coldly and said, "Roland, why do you suddenly ask this question?"
"Sir, I like you!"
"Huh——?" Wu Jie didn't expect Roland to be so bold and passionate. He took this opportunity to confess his feelings directly.
Wu Jie felt a few vague glances and the shocked looks from those around him. He quickly pulled Roland aside and found a deserted corner. Then he said to Roland, "Little girl, you are too direct..."
Roland blushed and covered her chest: "Commander, I'm actually very nervous too..."
Yeah, saying it in front of so many people, how could I not be nervous? Not only Roland was nervous, I guess several people present were nervous too.
"But, can't you choose a better time and place? There are so many people here..." Wu Jie was sweating coldly.
Roland said softly, "Sir, but, but you don't know, these past few days I have been..."
At this moment, Wu Jie covered Roland's mouth and said, "Don't talk yet. Someone is coming."
Roland quickly stopped talking, but then she felt something was wrong: [Yeah, I came here to confess to the commander, why is it so secretive now? No, I still have to tell you!]
She was about to pull the commander's hand off so she could continue speaking, but she saw someone walking towards her and her face suddenly changed.
"Captain, where are you taking our little girl?" Skadi actually followed. Skadi was different from Hestia. She was not at ease with Roland.
After all, Roland is still too young and doesn't understand what true love is. When she saw the superior pulling Roland aside, she was afraid that Wu Jie would do something excessive to Roland.
Is there anything that can't be said in public? Isn't it just a little girl confessing her love? Can't she just say it in public?
Wu Jie slapped his forehead and sighed, "Roland doesn't understand the consequences of her actions. She's still too young to understand emotions. I'm afraid she'll act impulsively, so I'll pull her aside and teach her a lesson."
Roland immediately became unhappy: "I don't need any education, Commander, I just like you! I just like you! I just like you!"
Although Wu Jie was very happy, Luo Lan was still too young after all. He shook his head and said, "Luo Lan, you are still too young to understand what love is. Let's talk about it when you grow up, okay? Not now."
Skadi didn't expect Wu Jie to have the same idea as her. She added, "Roland, the commander is right. You are still too young. Don't be in a hurry to express your feelings."
Roland was immediately dissatisfied: "Commander, Captain Zhongqi, you all say I'm young, but how am I young? I just want to boldly pursue my love. Commander, I've decided on you!"
After saying that, Roland left angrily, but her eyes were always on Wu Jie as she left.
This girl...
Wu Jie was speechless. It turned out that foreigners were more mature and open-minded than those in China. If they were in China, they would never be as straightforward as Roland. They would have to speak in a roundabout way, but Roland seemed to have no idea of this at all.
Wu Jie felt that Roland was still too young. She was just impulsive because of the good impression she had of the person she liked when she was young. Once the novelty wore off, she would no longer have that idea. She could only wait for it to fade away slowly in the future.
Skadi smiled and said, "Sir, it seems you are very popular."
Wu Jie said unhappily, "But I think this is actually a disaster."
"Disaster? Why is it a disaster? It's something that so many men desire but cannot obtain. Commander, aren't you moved at all?" Skadi, like Hestia, is sensitive to men's emotional affairs.
After all, she has a father like that, and her father also intends to let her and Wu Jie be together. Although she has no such thoughts, Skadi still cares a little.
After all, Hestia has true feelings for Wu Jie. If Wu Jie is a scumbag, she would never agree to Hestia and Wu Jie being together.
What does it matter if Wu Jie is capable? If he is a scumbag, won't there be another tragedy like her and Hestia?
This is also the reason why Skadi followed quietly. She wanted to see if Wu Jie was the kind of lustful man who was easily attracted by beautiful women.
But... at the moment, it seems that everything Wu Jie is doing is acceptable, at least it doesn't make her feel dissatisfied.
"Hurry back, the food competition is about to begin."
