Chapter 161: Prepared Program
In the following period of time, Qin Ge and his ship girls usually took a rest and cleaned up the guesthouse. Every one or two days, they would take on a commission to keep everyone in good condition.
As the Spring Festival approaches, the atmosphere of the New Year in the college gradually becomes stronger. Every day, you can see Ninghai, Pinghai and Anshan walking around the college, hanging red lanterns and pasting blessing characters and Spring Festival couplets on every door.
Qin Ge naturally did not leave anything behind, and even the venue for the banquet was covered with Spring Festival couplets.
Speaking of the banquet venue, we have already discussed it with Ning Hai, and a stage has been set up inside the venue. Ning Hai even found a few round tables from somewhere and placed them under the stage.
With the red lanterns hanging from the ceiling, the atmosphere of the entire banquet hall was very festive. And Yixian also placed some of the ingredients for the dishes prepared for New Year's Eve in the kitchen of the guesthouse.
After all, if you bring it from the cafeteria, it would seem a bit too far away, so it’s better to make it nearby.
So, as everyone in the college was preparing, New Year's Eve finally arrived.
Qin Ge got up early in the morning and confirmed with Mikasa the layout of the venue and the personnel notification. After that, he confirmed the process of the party with Hiei. When everything was arranged, he had time to sit in the public rest area and chat with the ship girls.
"Huh? Where's Ayanami?" Qin Ge came to the public rest area and found that Ayanami was not there, so he asked Noshiro who was drinking tea nearby.
"She should be in the room. I haven't seen her since I woke up in the morning." Noshiro thought for a while and said to Qin Ge.
Qin Ge's forehead flashed with a few black lines. He shook his head with a bitter smile and sat down next to Noshiro. "I'm a little unsure now. Is it a good thing or a bad thing to buy that game console for Ayanami?"
"I feel there are more benefits." Noshiro said to Qin Ge.
"Oh? Ayanami doesn't come out all day and stays in her room. Are there more benefits this way?" Qin Ge asked Noshiro.
At this time, Guanghui on the side smiled and said, "Perhaps what Noshiro meant is that according to Ayanami's personality, even if she comes out with everyone, she won't be able to say a few words. It would be better to let her do what she likes by herself. This is also better."
Noshiro nodded, "That's what I mean."
Qin Ge scratched his head. "Okay. By the way, what kind of program have you prepared in the evening?"
Everyone looked at each other, and Guanghui was the first to speak, "I prepared a few songs, I think they should be okay."
"Sword dancing." Noshiro said to Qin Ge.
"Where is Prince Eugen?" Qin Ge said to Prince Eugen.
"I don't have anything good to perform, so after looking around, I'll prepare to sing a song." Prince Eugen said to Qin Ge.
"The singing is pretty good." Qin Ge nodded and turned to the Centaur, "What about you, Centaur?"
The centaur blushed, "I want to perform a fan dance."
"Fan dance?" Qin Ge was stunned for a moment, then he remembered the ancient costume dance he had seen in TV dramas before, and then he said to the Centaur, "Is it the kind with two folding fans?"
"Hey, Commander, have you seen this before?" the Centaur asked curiously.
Qin Ge nodded, "I've seen people perform that kind of dance on TV in my world before, but I've never seen it in person, especially your dance, Centaur. I can look forward to it then."
The Centaur blushed and nodded. "Although I'm not very proficient, I think I can dance better if the commander expects me to."
Qin Ge laughed, "Sure, I'll look forward to it."
Qin Ge then turned his head to Veneto, who shook his head, "Commander, I'd better sing, even though my singing is not very good..."
Qin Ge laughed and said, "The glory of the Sardinian Empire, you must perform well."
Veneto smiled speechlessly. She suddenly felt that Qin Ge seemed to be gloating over her misfortune.
"What is the commander going to perform?" Veneto asked.
"Me?" Qin Ge thought for a moment, "Of course I'll play the guitar. After all, that's all I know."
"That's right." Veneto smiled and said. In her long time in the fleet, she had only seen Qin Ge play the guitar, and he didn't have any other talents, if teaching could be considered a talent.
"What about Helena?" Qin Ge said to Helena beside him.
"Hey, do I have to perform too?" Helena said with some surprise.
"Yes, as we said before, we all have to perform at least one show. Also, Helena must want to bring us not only victory in battle, but also laughter in daily life, right?" Qin Ge said to Helena.
"But..." Helena hesitated for a moment , but finally nodded, "Then I'll prepare a show then."
"Yeah, be happy. Today is Donghuang's annual New Year's Eve, when families reunite. So it is a festive day. On such a day, it is best for everyone to be happy." Qin Ge said to Helena.
"Yes, Commander." Helena forced a smile, but it seemed a little forced.
Qin Ge said to Helena, who was smiling with some difficulty, "But seriously, why does Helena always look so sad?"
"Expression? Ah... because the war situation was still quite unfavorable when I left... I'm a little uncomfortable with peace, laughter and the like... But don't worry, Helena, I'll be fine!" Helena said to Qin Ge.
Qin Ge knew what Helena meant in an instant. Helena was sunk in the Battle of Kula Gulf. It was only July 1943, and there were still two years before the end of the battle.
"Try to adjust your mood. You have seen that our comrades are all experienced fighters. As long as we work together, we will surely win more victories.
The most important thing now is to learn to enjoy every day, because only when you learn to enjoy the peace will you protect it and work hard. Do you understand, Helena? So be happy in the future. "Qin Ge said to Helena.
"Yeah." Looking at Qin Ge's concerned expression, Helena felt warm in her heart. Since she came to this fleet, Qin Ge has been encouraging her and letting her stand in her most suitable position, and everything has been successful.
In daily life, I also give myself courage and encouragement. Perhaps, I have to let go of my previous obsession and adjust my state back to normal.
Qin Ge looked at Helena's smile and nodded, then turned to look at Rodney and Spence.
"Commander, I'm the same as Guanghui, we both sing," Rodney answered straightforwardly.
As for Spence, "Point, point, Commander, can you please not perform? I really can't do anything."
Qin Ge looked at Spence who looked aggrieved and couldn't help but laugh, "Okay, then I won't perform, I'll just have fun."
"real?"
"real."
