Xu Huan took out his house key card from his ship's equipment, opened the door, and was about to follow Hu Teng inside when his gaze was drawn to the 'small pavilion' in the courtyard.
It must be because the moonlight tonight is so bright that the tables and chairs, which were originally mainly black and red, appear somewhat white under its light, creating a rather tranquil atmosphere.
With the neatly maintained lawn and flowers nearby, everything in the villa's courtyard looked peaceful and beautiful at this moment.
“The moonlight tonight… is really nice…” Hu Teng noticed the young man stop in his tracks and, with her keen intuition, immediately guessed what he was thinking.
“That’s where we usually have fun and enjoy afternoon tea. It’s very clean… Xu Huan.”
The young man understood the ship girl's implication perfectly. After a brief hesitation, he asked, "How about... we eat dinner out?"
"Can...."
Hu Teng nodded and led the young man to the table.
She gently kissed Xu Huan's cheek: "I'll prepare dinner tonight, and you can change your clothes while you're at it..."
"You'll wait for me here... okay?"
"So I'll just slack off?"
Xu Huan readily agreed.
"OK..."
Hu Teng smiled gently and then walked back into the villa.
After watching the ship girl go inside, Xu Huan looked at the moonlight in the sky and fell into deep thought.
The People's Union... has no moon.
Or rather, the thing orbiting the human-united home planet, known as the new moon, is fundamentally different from the Earth-united moon.
Perhaps it was because the countless steel jungles obscured the sky, but Xu Huan had never seen such a bright moon when he was in the Union (the human alliance's home planet was called 'Union').
In the traditional culture of Donghuang, there are many images and poems related to the moon. When he was studying them, Xu Huan never really understood their profound meaning. It wasn't until now, when he saw the crescent moon hanging in the sky, that Xu Huan gradually realized the meaning of those sentences he had read before.
Silence reigned, and after an unknown period of time, the young man finally let out a long sigh:
"A perfect reunion... If I have the chance in the future, I must go to Donghuang to eat a mooncake."
"What should we eat, Xu Huan...?"
A familiar voice suddenly came from behind him. Xu Huan subconsciously turned around and glanced back, then his heart skipped a beat.
Hu Teng had somehow taken off his hoodie and put on an outfit that resembled a maid's dress, even adding a maid's headband to the center of the two corners of his head.
Aside from the tight bra covering her chest and the sleeves on her arms, her smooth abdomen and fair, delicate breasts were exposed to the air, all connected only by black ribbons, revealing most of her slender figure and fair skin.
Her lower body was dressed in a traditional black and white maid skirt, paired with thick thigh-high boots and black stockings that covered her plump thighs, making her slender and straight legs look beautiful.
The combination of the ship girl's short, ear-length hair and dark gold vertical pupils creates a striking contrast.
"Or...should I call you Master now?"
Seeing the young man's slightly surprised reaction, Hu Teng smiled with satisfaction.
Chapter 241 Thoughts
"Where did you get this outfit from?" Xu Huan's eyes scanned the ship girl in front of him without any attempt to hide them, then he said with a smile, "I've never seen you like this before..."
The sudden appearance of Hu Teng, who had a cool demeanor, dressed in an alluring maid outfit, shattered Xu Huan's preconceived notions about her.
However, it must be said that after the little wildcat put on this outfit, her overall temperament became more alluring, and the unique maid outfit made her slender figure look even more tempting.
"After returning to the port these past two days, I went to the tailor Manju to have it custom-made..." Hu Teng explained with a slight smile, "Back in the Royal Navy, I often saw the Royal Maids fawning over you... so I wondered if you, Xu Huan, had a taste for this kind of thing..."
"Judging from your reaction now, I knew I was right..."
"Let me clarify first, I don't have any particular fetish for maids or anything like that, it's just because you're pretty..."
Xu Huan explained with righteous indignation.
"...You're quite good at making excuses."
Hearing such straightforward praise from his sweetheart, even the usually stoic Hu Teng couldn't help but blush.
Immediately recalling the young man's reaction, the ship girl hesitated for a moment before softly calling out again, "...Master?"
"The food is ready. Should we eat first, or... what about me?"
When Hu Teng said this, his personality made it sound somewhat awkward and abrupt, which made people feel a little out of place and not at all like something evil. Instead, it made people feel amused.
Xu Huan subconsciously compared the rookie maid in front of him with Belfast.
If the head maid of the royal family had said those words, their power would have been significantly amplified, but now that they came from Hu Teng's mouth...
The young man wanted to eat properly.
"Shall we eat first?"
"Oh?"
The situation wasn't quite what he had imagined, and Hu Teng raised an eyebrow in confusion. "According to the plot of the novel, Xu Huan, shouldn't you just pick me up, pin me down, and eat me up?"
Xu Huan suppressed a laugh: "I did want to do that, but for some reason, the words just don't feel the same coming from your mouth..."
“That’s true… I’m not really suited to that delicate, pampered image…” Hu Teng said, casually tugging at the strap of her bra.
It's my first time wearing this outfit, so I'm still a little unaccustomed to it.
The taut, foolish man was pulled up and then slapped onto his fair, tender chest, making a soft 'smack' sound. At the same time, his bulging chest swayed slightly, revealing its amazing softness and elasticity.
Xu Huan's gaze lingered on the screen for a moment, almost unconsciously.
"what......"
Noticing the young man's gaze, Hu Teng smiled and said, "I guess I'm not suited for that kind of delicate allure... this kind suits me better..."
"Alright, alright... let's eat first..."
Feeling guilty for having his thoughts exposed, Xu Huan looked away and then tried to steer the conversation back to dinner.
But the ship girls don't seem to intend to let him off the hook.
Wearing a special maid outfit, Hu Teng first faced the young man directly, sat on his lap, and then gently placed her hands on Xu Huan's chest and pushed him hard.
The young man lay half-reclined on the chair, while Hu Teng gained an advantage similar to riding a horse because of this movement.
The dark golden, bewitching vertical pupils looked down at the youth.
The two looked at each other and remained silent.
"...What kind of maid would push her master so willingly?"
"You met him today...."
Hu Teng lowered his head and very considerately removed the young man's lips, leaving him unable to utter a single word except for a comfortable, cloying groan.
Under the pure white moonlight, at a small table and chairs in the villa garden, the legendary Iron-Blooded Sea Warrior dressed in a maid outfit completely overwhelmed the extremely 'weak' commander.
As if preparing to drain and plunder Xu Huan's mouth and all his consciousness, this 'absorbing' action lasted for a full five minutes before ending in Hu Teng's dazed and unsatisfied gaze.
If it weren't for the fact that starting a war in the small garden might be seen by passing ship girls, Hutten would have already executed the delicious prey in front of him on the spot.
"Ha ha...."
Hu Teng leaned gently against the young man's chest, breathing heavily. After a while, he spoke again:
"I'm going to get dinner... If I don't eat it soon, it'll probably get cold..."
-------------------------------------
Belfast was on her way home.
The moonlight tonight seemed brighter than usual, and the head maid stopped several times to take out her phone and capture some rare night scenes.
"If only Master were with me right now..." Belfast muttered to herself with great regret as she flipped through the photos in the album.
If Xu Huan were here too, then this night view would have someone to enjoy it with.
Unfortunately... my master should be having dinner at Miss Hu Teng's house right now.
With a slightly disappointed sigh, Belfast continued walking along her planned route home.
After walking through several streets, she finally saw the Ironblood residential area.
Rows of small villas stand side by side, and the light emanating from their interiors is enough to make one feel at ease.
Walking towards the place she remembered, Belfast stopped with some confusion as soon as she turned a corner.
Her ears twitched slightly, and then she looked in another unfamiliar direction.
Unlike the passenger area, that's the residential area for the Ironblood ship girls.
And she heard a voice that she knew very well from it.
"Master..."
Having only been at Ironblood for a few days, Belfast didn't know where Hutten lived, which was why she had previously given up on the idea of going to Hutten's house to "take a look".
The sound that came at this moment proved that the master's current location was not far away.
So...should we follow the sound and take a look?
