How do I start a romantic relationship with a ship girl?

Page 40

Just across from him, Xu Huan had just eaten a mouthful of rice with the braised pork that Guanghui had just put in his bowl. He was marveling at how delicious the gravy was when he suddenly felt his foot, which was under the tablecloth, being gently kicked.

The swallowing motion immediately stopped. The young man was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered and acted as if nothing had happened.

Hu Teng narrowed his eyes upon seeing this.

The goal is set... this is it.

Then, the leg under the tablecloth moved slightly.

Xu Huan hadn't even swallowed his food yet when his movements paused slightly again.

“Commander…” Aurora, noticing the young man’s two strange reactions, asked with concern, “Is there something wrong with the taste? Or is it a bit too spicy?”

"It's okay...it just tasted so good that I didn't expect it."

Xu Huan was a little embarrassed, not expecting Aurora to observe him so closely, even noticing such subtle movements, and quickly explained.

"Commander really knows how to compliment people..." Seeing this, Glorious smiled and put another piece into Xu Huan's bowl: "Then have one more piece~"

"Thanks..."

The young man nodded, but this time he paid special attention to controlling his body's instincts to avoid being stunned again.

At first, he thought that someone might have accidentally bumped his foot under the table, but after the second time, it became very clear that the other person had done it on purpose.

Was he deliberately trying to make a fool of himself? Or did he have some other plan?

So who could it be? Glory, who happily serves herself food, Aurora, who is always concerned about her condition... or Hu Teng, who sits across from her silently eating her food without saying a word.

It seems like we don't need to choose, right?

Of the three, I feel only Hu Teng would do something like this...

Xu Huan pondered for a moment, then focused his attention on Hu Teng. He saw that Hu Teng's reactions were normal, and he couldn't figure out what was going on. So he picked up his chopsticks and ate some more rice and meat.

Just as he was about to take a bite, his leg was lightly scraped under the tablecloth.

Fortunately, he had prepared himself mentally beforehand, so he didn't show any strange reaction.

Seeing that he was behaving normally, the other person withdrew the foot that had been lightly rubbing against him. Just as Xu Huan breathed a sigh of relief, the other person placed the soft, slightly cool foot directly on his leg again.

Why is it called the sole of the foot?

Because Xu Huan was dressed very casually and comfortably today, wearing shorts on his lower body, the soft touch of the other person's skin when it came into contact with his calf was undeniable.

Did they take their shoes off because the stimulation wasn't intense enough?

Xu Huan looked at Hu Teng.

Hu Teng was also looking at the young man at that moment.

Their eyes met, and the ship girl's lips curved into a smile.

No matter what, the irritation from direct skin contact is far more intense than a minor scratch, and Xu Huan wasn't stupid; he should have guessed long ago that this was what she had done...

Then you won't need to hide anymore.

“Commander... try this one again~” Glorious said enthusiastically once again.

"Thank you... uh...?!"

Xu Huan suddenly trembled slightly, and almost dropped the bowl.

Seeing this, Hu Teng bit his thin lips.

"commander?"

Radiance blinked, asking with a hint of doubt.

"It's nothing..." After regaining his composure, Xu Huan gave the ship girl sitting directly opposite him a warning look with a somewhat helpless expression.

He had just been 'harassed' by Hu Teng with his foot again, but this time the other party seemed not to be satisfied with just the calf, and instead made a sudden move, targeting the thigh above the knee.

Xu Huan felt as if his thigh was being gently pinched by the other person's toes, and then the toes kept moving back and forth around his thigh.

Hu Teng remained indifferent.

Then——

The young man felt the nimble toes gradually extending towards the inside of his thigh, a very sensitive area.

Xu Huan frowned.

There are other people here; we can't let Hu Teng continue to act so recklessly and make fun of us...

He instinctively squeezed his legs together and gave Hu Teng another warning look.

But Ironblood Ship Girls clearly don't buy into that.

Hu Teng pulled his seat a little further into the tablecloth, tilting his body slightly to find a more comfortable sitting position.

Then, in the youth's perception, another long leg seemed to crawl in directly, forcibly prying open a gap between his tightly closed legs.

Just as Xu Huan was about to take action again to stop the other party's teasing, the ship girl directly adopted a more fierce attack method. Like the blitzkrieg in history, one of her feet opened up space, while the other foot directly extended slightly out of the tablecloth, aiming straight for the heart of the enemy.

Feeling that his proud Maginot Line had been completely breached, and that the enemy's weapons had reached the capital in a short time and taken very direct suppressive action—the foot pressed down slightly, making Xu Huan feel like he had a fishbone stuck in his throat, and he was unable to move.

If he were to resist at this moment, Hu Teng would certainly take corresponding measures, and the strange reaction he would produce would definitely be noticed by the other two.

In other words, he has already lost and can sign his name on the surrender document.

Looking at Hu Teng with a sense of helplessness, Xu Huan could only convey his surrender through his eyes.

However, it seems that Hu Teng has no intention of letting Xu Huan off the hook.

She picked up the chopsticks, stuck out her tongue and gently licked the top of them. As her rosy tongue began to curl, her toes also began to gently massage her 'trophy'. At the same time, her scornful yellow vertical pupils became somewhat hazy.

Teasing, blatant teasing...

But Xu Huan had absolutely no way to deal with Hu Teng.

If this continues... the flames within me will eventually be ignited by the other party.

Xu Huan took out a napkin and then waved it lightly a few times without making a sound.

surrender!

Seeing Xu Huan's predicament, Hu Teng felt extremely satisfied. He finally stopped what he was doing, and his rosy tongue scraped back and forth on his lips a few times. Then, he parted his moist lips slightly and made a mouth shape.

'Are my feet...comfortable?'

"..."

Xu Huan had no reply and turned his head away.

This little wildcat really did come after me tonight.

"Commander... and Miss Hutten, why are your faces a little red?" Aurora asked suddenly, glancing at their slightly flushed faces.

"Eating spicy food causes this..."

Xu Huan made up a random excuse.

"Me too, it's delicious, but a bit spicy."

Hu Teng echoed Xu Huan's words, and to cover it up, the ship girl even picked up a drink from the table and poured herself a glass.

Aside from the spiciness of the food, her blushing was mostly due to the fact that her behavior tonight was, in a traditional sense, a bit too bold. Even she herself found it difficult to control her facial expressions and the restless heat surging through her body, but it did achieve good results...

After Aurora's question, the ship girl finally pulled her leg back slightly and hid it under the tablecloth again, but it was still placed directly on Xu Huan's thigh, and her toes would occasionally rub together.

Overall, the intense stimulation from before was gone, and the meal remained within the young man's control. The meal was able to proceed normally, but the occasional soft touch still made Xu Huan feel a little itchy. He would occasionally shift his attention away from the food in front of him and think about strange things. After all, scratching an itch through a boot is the most uncomfortable thing, and it is easy to end up in a state of limbo.

As a healthy young man in his prime, it is perfectly normal for Xu Huan to have such thoughts and reactions.

As mentioned at the beginning, humans are slaves to hormones, and in such a relaxed environment, the effects of hormones on people are very significant.

If you add a little alcohol, it becomes even harder to control yourself—

When the dinner was nearly halfway through, perhaps feeling that something was missing, Aurora took out a few bottles of wine from the refrigerator to entertain Xu Huan and the other two.

Knowing that something was wrong with his current state, Xu Huan only took a few sips before putting down the cup.

There were many people around, and he wasn't at home, so he had to stay alert.

Xu Huan originally thought that Hu Teng, who came from the Ironblood family, would be the ship girl most interested in alcohol, but to his surprise, among the three ship girls, it was actually Illustrious who drank the most and was most interested in alcohol.

According to Aurora, this gentle and virtuous ship girl usually doesn't drink alcohol except when there are gatherings or events. But at today's dinner table, after taking a small sip, she started to get carried away and couldn't stop.

"The Commander is here... Aurora's food is delicious too, we can't waste such a rare opportunity..."

Guanghui picked up a piece of green pepper and put it in his mouth, then raised his wine glass and took a small sip.

"Hmm... Miss Glorious is right, it's okay to drink a little more."

Aurora didn't seem to have a high alcohol tolerance; she only had a few drinks before taking on the role of a guest.

As for Hutten...

After trying one bottle, she lost interest in drinking and was now preoccupied with what would happen after she brought Xu Huan back to the room.

Now all she has to do is stay here and watch over Xu Huan until the dinner party ends, making sure no other ship girls follow her example and steal his affections.

Xu Huan glanced at the two empty bottles next to Glorious, then at the blush that had been on the ship girl's face for quite some time, and the light pink on her fair skin, and figured that she must have already entered a slightly tipsy state.

However, the other person seemed to have excellent drinking manners; even after drinking quite a bit, their eating posture and etiquette remained very elegant.

I have to say, she truly lives up to her royal reputation... even when drinking, she maintains such composure—uh?
