Chapter 484: Influence
After Enterprise left the office with the folder, he immediately went to Washington's legal office. In addition to creating a private space for Su Xia and Victory, he really had something to ask Washington.
After staying in Washington's office for nearly half an hour and asking almost all the questions he wanted to ask, mainly about legal knowledge, and requesting for a few books, Enterprise was ready to return to the office, only to find that the office door was closed.
What on earth was going on that made them close the office door? Enterprise was a little curious, but she didn't plan to eavesdrop. She didn't go back to the office in Washington, but went to the finance office in Wisconsin. There was no one in Wisconsin's office, and she didn't know where Wisconsin had gone to hang out and join in the fun.
Wisconsin was not there and she could not go to the office, so Enterprise stood in the corridor, preparing to go back to her own office, that useless secretary ship office - who would stay in the admiral's office if she could stay in the admiral's office - only to see the door of the admiral's office opened, and the admiral looked furtively into the corridor, and was stunned when he saw her standing at the door of Wisconsin's office.
Avoiding it would make one seem guilty, and since it was nothing in the first place, Enterprise raised his hand to say hello.
Enterprise returned to the office, looked at Su Xia, then at Victory, but couldn't tell what was going on. Both of them were dressed neatly, and their hair was not messy at all. She lowered her eyes, and she noticed something on Victory's left ring finger - a ring of promise?
It was the ring of oath, she also had it, Enterprise smiled and said, "Congratulations, Victory."
"Well...thank you Enterprise." Victory said. She had learned from the admiral that he suddenly came to his senses today mainly because of Enterprise's reminder. Enterprise must have done it on purpose, to help her.
"It's okay." Enterprise waved his hand and said, "Sister Shengli."
Victory's expression froze. Why did he not feel happy anymore?
In any case, as a reasonable person, Victory would not be angry about this, but would only be grateful. Especially since she knew that Enterprise simply wanted to help her, not to make her owe a favor. If it was King George V of England, he would also help her, but he would definitely ask for credit and favor, which would be precious.
Of course no matter what, whether the company cares about that favor or not, she will always remember it.
The Victory would not publicize the fact that it had obtained the ring, but everyone could see the ring on the finger, and by the afternoon the news had spread throughout the garrison.
No one had any objection to the Victory's ring. Everyone thought that the Victory deserved it, and it could even be said that it was too late. After all, compared to Oyodo who only had her skirt lifted, Oyodo deserved the ring for being bullied like that, while been working diligently as the admiral's assistant for many years.
There are already many wedding ships in the garrison. Even if the Victory gets the ring, it will just be one more wedding ship to the existing number. Is it really that simple?
The British department routinely holds afternoon tea every afternoon, and today is no exception.
King George V of England sat beside the small white round table, holding a cup of red tea as he enjoyed the gentle breeze blowing across the lawn and garden. He had already let go of the fact that he had lost the competition for the secretary ship. Now he looked forward and said, "Do you know about the Victory getting the ring?"
"I just heard from Counterattack." The Prince of Wales stirred his tea with a small spoon.
Hood was looking for a snack on the cake stand and finally chose a sandwich. When he heard King George V's words, he was surprised and said, "What? The Victory got a ring."
King George V of England glanced at Hood and really didn't want to pay attention to this guy who only knew how to pet cats. He said, "This means that our British faction has gained another great general."
Victory was a permanent assistant and had always been the number one figure in the garrison, but it was not a wedding ship. Even a wedding ship was not worthy of being called a heavyweight. Now that it had become a wedding ship, it was truly a heavyweight figure in the garrison.
"No," said the Prince of Wales. "Although the Victory is of our British line, she has been an assistant for so long that her position has always belonged to the office."
King George V nodded: "What a pity."
Prestige belongs to the head maid of the naval base, and Victory belongs to the admiral's assistant. They are British and yet not British. They are never limited to the British range and will not seek benefits for the British. Instead, they look at the entire naval base. However, it is precisely because of this that they have such a special status.
There are already so many wedding ships in the garrison, more than one hundred and nearly two hundred, and many of them are not wedding ships. Now one person has successfully landed and become a wedding ship. What will others think?
This was in a bustling bar in a commercial building. Cologne put down his cell phone, placed it next to a large beer glass, and looked at the girl with short dark red hair and the girl with waist-length white hair sitting at the same table, automatically ignoring the girl with shoulder-length blonde hair.
"Sister Königsberg, Sister Karlsruhe, it has been confirmed. The news is correct. The Victory received the Ring of Promise this morning and became a wedding ship." Cologne said with a serious expression.
"And then?" The girl with short dark red hair spoke. She was Königsberg, the first ship of the Königsberg class light cruiser and the eldest sister of Cologne.
"What do you think? What does that mean? It means the admiral is starting to marry people... Haven't you heard that the admiral promised Xiao Zhai that he would make this port full of laughter and marry all the people he flirted with before and never let anyone down." Cologne said excitedly, "The admiral married the Victory, which means he is going to slowly marry everyone, and we are not far away."
"Do you dare to say you are not looking forward to it?" Cologne knew that her sister liked the admiral, but she just didn't show it like she did. At one point, she ran to the admiral's room even though it was clearly not a wedding ship.
"Cologne, do you want to be a wedding ship so badly?" The girl with shoulder-length blonde hair picked up her beer and drank it all in one gulp, teasing, "Cologne, you really have an admiral complex."
"Leipzig , shut up." Cologne said, "You are a thrifty guy, a miser, but when it comes to the admiral, you are willing to spend everything. How dare you say that to me? It is obvious that you are the one who cares about the admiral the most."
"How come I didn't know about this?" Leipzig snorted, feeling embarrassed to tease Admiral Cologne anymore.
"Cologne, don't worry. The situation is unclear now." The girl with waist-length white hair is Karlsruhe, the second ship of the Königsberg-class light cruiser, and Cologne's second sister.
"Anyway, I'm ready to charge." Cologne said, "If I don't take the initiative, you can just wait... When will the admiral remember you? It may take a long time for him to remember you."
Cologne picked up the beer and rolled his eyes.
