Chapter 718: Invitation to Dance
The awarding ceremony is simple, but the meaning it represents is not simple.
Just as King George V of England said to Qin Ge at this moment, "Originally, the Royal Navy Cross was made of only two materials: iron and copper. However, because Commander Qin Ge represents a different meaning, Her Majesty the Queen specially ordered someone to make this medal with gold and award it to you on this occasion.
After all, the royal family is currently in the process of reconstruction, and cannot hold a large ceremony for this awarding of honors. I hope Commander Qin Ge can forgive me."
Qin Ge smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay, and I'm not used to that kind of occasion. It's fine this way. Thank you very much for the Royal Family's appreciation of me and my fleet. I hope that our cooperation in the future can be closer."
"This is necessary. After this battle, all camps will probably want to establish good relations with the fleets of each commander." King George V of England said meaningfully.
Qin Ge smiled and said, "Isn't this better? And I also want to establish good relations with each camp. After all, when the battle comes again, the strength of one camp is still too weak. Only by uniting together can we achieve the final victory.
Just like the Siren Tide this time, it is very difficult to contend with it with the strength of a single faction alone, but as long as we gather together, we can break through their defenses and crush their attacks. "
"Well said. This is what our royal family means. After the appearance of the Arbitrator and the Embers, the strength of a single camp can no longer resist the attack of the Sirens. We must seek change in the breakthrough." King George V of England said.
"This is also the significance of the existence of Azur Lane. I believe that in the days to come, our alliance will become even closer and we will jointly maintain peace in this world." Qin Ge said with a smile.
"Um."
While the two were talking, Hao smiled and said, "Sister and Commander Qin Ge, today is not the time to talk about these things. You are the protagonists of the celebration banquet. Don't waste your time here. Everyone is waiting for you."
Qin Ge looked back and saw that although his ship girls had dispersed in the banquet hall, all their eyes were looking here from time to time.
"That's true. So let's put aside our usual burdens today and enjoy this hard-earned banquet."
King George V of England smiled apologetically, picked up the wine glasses on the table, handed one of them to Qin Ge, and then raised his glass.
"Haha, cheers."
"cheers."
After leaving King George V, Qin Ge was immediately surrounded by his own ship girls, and their intentions were very obvious.
There is a very large dance floor in the center of the banquet hall, and Elizabeth has specially prepared the Royal Symphony Orchestra to perform for this banquet, so it would be a real pleasure to dance here with your loved one.
Looking at the ship girls who gathered around him, Qin Ge smiled and said, "Let me take the initiative today, okay? After all, you took the initiative to invite me to dance at the previous banquets, but now we are in the royal family, so I have to behave more like a gentleman, right?"
"Haha, I suddenly found that the commander has changed a lot, but I'm really looking forward to it. I wonder who the commander will invite first?" North Carolina said with a smile.
The other ship girls also looked at Qin Ge with great curiosity, and they all wanted to know who Qin Ge wanted to invite first.
Qin Ge walked up to the Centaur and stretched out his right hand as the Centaur blushed and looked expectant. "Beautiful lady, may I invite you to dance with me?"
"That's none of my business, Commander," the Centaur said.
Qin Ge shook his head, "Now is not the time to be humble, and you are one of the first ship girls I summoned. You mean more to me than anyone else. If I leave you behind, I won't be able to get over it.
So don’t think too much, let’s go on stage and dance together, a dance that belongs to us.”
After hearing Qin Ge's words, the Centaur's hesitant expression suddenly became firm. Then he put his hand on Qin Ge's outstretched hand, his face flushed with excitement.
Today the Centaur was wearing a white dress, which contrasted nicely with the navy dress Qin Ge was wearing.
The two held hands and walked to the dance floor in the center of the banquet hall. As soon as they stood up, they heard the orchestra next to them start playing.
Qin Ge said with a smile, "It seems that the orchestra here is of high quality, and it really deserves to be used exclusively by the royal family. Then, let's start our dance, Centaur?"
"Yes, Commander," the Centaur responded shyly, the blush on her face looking particularly beautiful.
With the wonderful music, Qin Ge embraced the Centaur, and the two danced in the dance floor. However, because there were so many people watching, the Centaur seemed a little restrained and his movements were a little stiff.
Although she wanted to perform the dance with Qin Ge in a graceful manner, unfortunately her body did not allow it.
Qin Ge also discovered this problem, so he leaned his face close to the Centaur's ear and whispered, "Centaur, let me tell you something secretly. Actually, after coming to this world, the first person I fell in love with was you.
I really like the cheerful and gentle Centaur. Maybe there are too many people in the port area now, and you often restrain yourself with your status as a junior. But at this moment, I want to tell you that it is you who made me fall in love with this world and it is you who made me feel bound to this world.
Don't underestimate . Although your memory is inferior to other experiences, your time and strength in the fleet are definitely not inferior. You are a reliable partner of our companions and someone I can trust.
So relax, let's dance together. Although this is not our first dance, it is definitely not our last. We still have a long, long time to spend together."
Qin Ge spoke softly, causing the Centaur's stiff body to slowly relax. In a trance, she recalled her date with Qin Ge. When did she bury her love for Qin Ge deep in her heart?
Isn't he the one I like the most?
Thinking of this, the Centaur leaned slightly closer to Qin Ge, "Commander, I understand. I will work harder in the future."
After the Centaur finished speaking, her face became even redder, and this redness was not from embarrassment or shyness, but a kind of happiness, a deep love that could be seen through her face.
Accompanied by beautiful music, the two began to dance to their heart's content. Several ship girls who understood the reason looked at each other and saw some expectation in each other's eyes.
Perhaps as Qin Ge said before, he was now starting to become their commander.
