Chapter 679: Vulnerable
Su Xia certainly liked the young lady Phelps, but he usually didn't dare to see her alone. The reason was simple: the young girl was too dangerous, and he couldn't guarantee that he could control himself. In this case, a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall.
If her sister Potter was present, she would probably not dare to act so recklessly and he would have the courage to see her.
Su Xia followed Potter to the home economics room one after another.
Su Xia saw that Phelps was wearing thick gloves and was taking a tray full of snacks out of the oven. The moment she saw him walk into the home economics activity room, her eyes, which had slightly shrunken due to the effort of carrying the tray, suddenly opened. Her bright eyes lit up and her gaze was fixed on him.
"Why are you here, Admiral?" Phelps's brows relaxed, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly. "Are you here to see Phelps?"
All the ship girls are girls, and girls like sweet words. Su Xia also gradually learned how to say sweet words, and in the eyes of outsiders, she has the potential to be a playboy. However, she did not dare to say sweet words in front of Phelps because she would take it seriously.
Clarkson is love-brained, Sigsby is a little elf, but the problem is that they are still loli and it is obviously not allowed. Changchun is a girl but has a child's mind, but Phelps, as a girl, is somewhere in between what is allowed and what is not allowed.
"I met Potter and heard her say you made some snacks." Su Xia said, "Come and try them."
"Really?" Phelps said, finally noticing her sister Porter's presence. "Welcome, Admiral."
Porter is a destroyer, for sure. She walked to the cooking table with her full breasts, where Phelps had just placed the tray of snacks. Seeing this, Phelps subconsciously lowered his head, hoping that she would look like her sister in the future. The admiral seemed to prefer girls with plump figures. Seeing Porter finish an egg tart in two bites and pick up another one, he wondered if she wanted to eat more.
"Phelps, why are you looking at me?" Porter held up the egg tart. "Can't you eat it?"
Phelps reacted and quickly said, "It's nothing... It's ok, eat whatever you want, sister."
"And this is black tea." Phelps remembered to find some black tea. He first poured a cup for Su Xia and then poured a cup for Porter.
Su Xia reached out and picked up the egg tart, took a bite and drank a sip of black tea, thinking that she was indeed the young mistress, and to some extent, she was even better than her teacher. After all, the mistress had two difficult sisters, Saratoga and Constellation, and a lot of opponents to distract her. In comparison, the young mistress had too much time to hone her skills every day.
"That's it." Su Xia ate an egg tart and finished, "I don't dare to eat too much. Egg tarts are too high in calories. I'm afraid I'll get fat if I eat too much."
Phelps immediately said, "Boys look better when they are fatter."
"He's not a boy anymore." Su Xia said.
"It's the same with men," Phelps said, learning from someone.
"Does Phelps really think that men look better when they are fatter?" Su Xia asked seriously.
Phelps was silent.
Potter heard the conversation between the two people, looked at the half-eaten egg tart in his hand, and said, "I don't dare to eat it."
"Why doesn't Potter dare to eat it?" Su Xia said, "If it tastes good, eat more."
"I'm afraid of gaining weight." Porter replied, "Didn't you just say that egg tarts are high in calories?"
Even if a ship girl eats too much, she will get fat. Of course, people like Akagi who eats too much and Taihou, a foodie young woman, are the type who will never gain weight no matter how much they eat. Not only that, they also have a four-dimensional stomach.
"I did say egg tarts are high in calories..." Su Xia said, "If you gain weight, you'll gain weight. Being fatter will make you cuter."
"Admiral, do you like fatter girls or thinner girls?" Porter asked.
Porter is not a top destroyer, but an excellent destroyer. The key point is that her game character illustration is too cute. Of course, Su Xia has done a lot of good things to improve her favorability in the game, which leads to her having a favorability of 100 towards Su Xia.
Su Xia looked at Porter. The girl with red hair and ponytail was a girl with a lot of flesh. Then she looked at Phelps. She was a girl with a slender figure. But a slender figure did not mean she was skinny. She had every bit of flesh. Su Xia hesitated about how to take care of two people at the same time.
"Being fat has its own beauty. In ancient times, the Tang Dynasty considered fat to be beautiful. Being thin also has its own beauty." Su Xia said, "Whether it's a fat girl or a thin girl... I have no way to judge. I can only say that each has its own beauty. Fat and thin girls each have their own merits."
"So," Su Xia looked at Potter, "Potter can eat whatever he wants."
Su Xia said as he noticed that he was being stared at by Phelps.
"That's what I want to say to the Admiral," Phelps said. "If you want to eat, eat it. Don't hold back."
Su Xia opened her mouth. What did it matter if she was confused by her own words?
"It's mainly because I don't want to get too fat." Su Xia said, "I have to take it easy ."
Su Xia thought for a moment and said, "I'm not a ship girl. If I eat too much and get too fat, I'll have high blood pressure, high blood fat, and high blood sugar... Is that really good?"
"Hmm..." Phelps bit his lip lightly.
"Eat another one." Su Xia thought for a moment and said, "You won't get fat even if you eat more."
Su Xia took another egg tart. Seeing that Potter had eaten several more, he pointed to the corner of his mouth and said, "Here."
Potter wiped his mouth to get rid of the food crumbs and continued eating.
"You're really not afraid." Su Xia said, "You're not afraid of getting fat."
"The admiral said that everyone has their own merits, so it doesn't matter if you're a little fat," Porter said. "It's mainly because the snacks that Phelps makes are so delicious."
"My sister is so amazing." Porter said proudly.
"Take your time, sister," Phelps said. "I made a lot of egg tarts and a lot of snacks."
"Can we finish all this food among just a few of us?" Potter asked.
"Sister can call everyone over," Phelps said. "I remember everyone was in the activity room."
"Leave it to me." Porter took another egg tart to demonstrate Phelps' baking skills with practical actions.
Porter left, and now only Su Xia and Phelps were left in the home economics room.
Phelps glanced at Su Xia and shouted, "Admiral."
"Yeah." Su Xia drank the black tea slowly.
"Admiral, what do you think of the taste of black tea?" asked Phelps.
"Very good." Su Xia praised.
"I wonder if black tea tastes right?" Phelps said. "I specifically asked Victory sister for advice."
Su Xia sipped her tea and said, "Phelps doesn't need to learn from Shengli. I like her tea, in part because I drink the most tea she brews."
"The black tea brewed by Victory has one flavor, the black tea brewed by Enterprise has another flavor, and the black tea brewed by Reputation has another flavor. Everyone has their own characteristics, and I like them all." Su Xia paused and said, "Phelps doesn't need to learn from everyone ... Learning from others means that you will never be able to surpass them."
"I want to drink the black tea brewed by Phelps, not the black tea brewed by Phelps on the Victory, or the black tea brewed by Phelps on the Enterprise," Su Xia added.
Phelps blinked, wondering if the admiral was hinting at something.
"I didn't know egg tarts were that high in calories," Phelps added.
"It's normal not to know." Su Xia said, "If I hadn't been bored and looked it up, I wouldn't have known that egg tarts have several hundred calories. Portuguese egg tarts are even higher... I always thought an egg tart was no more than a hundred calories."
"All Phelps needs to know is that the more cream and sugar there is, the higher the calories," said Suxia.
"I only know that fats ... oils are high in calories," Phelps asked. "Are butter and sugar high in calories, too?"
"How should I put it... I don't quite understand it if you ask me. You should ask George Evlov. She is a fitness coach and she knows more about it. Although I feel that she is more of a salesperson than a fitness coach." Su Xia recalled for a moment, "To put it simply, sugar is carbohydrates..."
"Admiral, please speak slowly." Phelps took out a small notebook from his pocket, "I'll write it down."
"Don't remember it." Su Xia said, "I don't really understand it either. It would be bad if I said it wrong."
"Then I'll go ask Sister George Evlov later." Phelps made a note in his notebook.
Su Xia peeked at Phelps taking notes and saw her writing something in her notebook in beautiful small handwriting - low-calorie delicious snacks.
"What did Phelps write?" Su Xia asked.
Phelps suddenly heard Su Xia's words and quickly put away his notebook. He put his hands on the notebook and placed it on his chest, and replied in a panic: "Nothing."
Su Xia was just about to speak when he realized what was written in Phelps' notebook. The notebook recorded what he liked to eat, such as mango, scallops with garlic vermicelli, steak, etc., and the notes recorded what he didn't like, bitter melon, celery, ginger, etc. Anyway, it was all filled up, with beautiful small words densely packed together.
"Did Admiral see it?" Phelps looked at Su Xia and asked cautiously.
"Do you usually write so small?" Su Xia said, "I can't even see it clearly from such a close distance."
Phelps was relieved.
"Admiral, don't move." Phelps said suddenly.
"Is there any problem?" Su Xia asked.
"There are threads on the Admiral's sweater," Phelps said. "Let me cut them off for you."
"good."
Phelps found the scissors and walked to Su Xia's side. He tiptoed lightly and carefully helped him cut the threads on the collar of his sweater. He did not leave after cutting them off.
Phelps put away the scissors. It would be bad if the sharp scissors stabbed someone. "Admiral, didn't you see the thread?"
"Not at all." Su Xia has never been such a careful person, or cared so much about clothes.
"The collar is a little crooked, let me help you fix it."
"Okay." Su Xia raised her chin slightly .
"You don't have to button up all the buttons of the admiral's uniform in the garrison."
Su Xia still raised her chin and responded softly: "Oh."
"I helped you untie it."
Su Xia lowered his chin and looked at Phelps. The girl had a blue bow on her head, her long flaxen hair was loose and fell on her shoulders, her bright eyes were extremely serious, and there was a gentle smile on the corners of her mouth. She now looked like a little wife who was arranging clothes for her husband .
Su Xia swallowed, and something told him that he couldn't go on like this.
"Potter has been gone for so long and still hasn't come back?" Su Xia asked.
"I don't know," Phelps said.
"I'll go and take a look."
Su Xia almost fled in panic.
