Chapter 770: Becoming Stronger with You
The day after ending his date with Bumblebee, Qin Ge brought Helena to the streets of White Eagle.
In preparation for today's date, St. Louis took Helena out yesterday to pick out some clothes for her, and also helped Helena dress up this morning.
So when Qin Ge saw Helena for the first time, he felt a sense of amazement.
But unfortunately, people may become more beautiful if they dress up, but their personality cannot be changed.
When walking with Qin Ge on the streets of White Eagle, Helena always walked one step behind Qin Ge, as if the two were not on a date, but Qin Ge was doing something and Helena was following him.
This left Qin Ge somewhat helpless, so he walked along the street to the river, found a place with few people, and sat down with Helena.
"Helena, are you unhappy about today's date?" Qin Ge asked.
Helena waved her hands anxiously, "No, I'm very happy. Why did the commander say that?"
"Because I always see you walking behind me instead of beside me, even when we are holding hands. Why is that?" Qin Ge asked.
Helena was a little shy. "I feel that I don't have enough confidence to stand beside the commander now . Because the commander has been surrounded by powerful sisters for a long time, and I am not strong yet, so I want to become better, until one day I can stand beside the commander confidently."
Qin Ge couldn't help scratching his head, then tapped Helena the head, "Standing by my side has nothing to do with being strong, okay? Why do you keep thinking about these things? It's enough to have an Ikaros in the port. Don't think about fighting against aircraft carriers and battleships with the body of a cruiser. Your advantage does not lie in your firepower, but in the intelligence you can explore."
"But even with the SG, my exploration ability is still not as good as some of my sisters." Helena said affectionately.
Qin Ge smiled and said , "Then who was the one who constantly reported the enemy's precise location to the battleships in the rear during the previous battle? You don't think this information is unimportant, do you?
This will speed up our efforts to destroy the enemy's main fleet by several times. You are already very capable, and sometimes I am even a little unsure about standing by your side, so I can only work harder to enrich myself so that I can be worthy of being your commander."
"Commander, don't say that." Helena blushed.
"Why can't I say that? You said that to me, why can't I say that to you?" Qin Ge smiled, "I still remember when I summoned you, your lost eyes left a deep impression on me.
For such a long time, I have been trying to encourage you to regain your confidence, which is actually a progress for me. In fact, it is not only me who gives you courage, but more often it is you who gives me courage.
If it weren't for you, I would have been trapped in some corner by now. How could I possibly fight against these Siren fleets?
It is a process of mutual improvement and mutual progress between us. There is no such thing as who is better than who. So standing next to me is like standing shoulder to shoulder like this." Qin Ge said with a smile.
"Commander, you always comfort me and encourage me." Helena's eyes sparkled. Although it was a cold winter in New York Harbor, she felt the warmth of spring.
"Oh, you are my ship girl. If I don't treat you well, who else can I treat well?" Qin Ge said with a smile, "So don't say those stupid things in the future. You should know that you are excellent. Don't let the past bother you all the time. Let's think about the future and make progress together, and win together, just like every time before."
"Yeah." Helena nodded heavily.
"How is it now?" Qin Ge asked with a smile.
"I feel very happy. I never expected that one day I would be so happy, but now I am really happy." Helena smiled.
"You have a nice smile, but next time when you smile, don't have tears in the corners of your eyes. If others see it, they will think I'm bullying you." Qin Ge joked.
"Well, I won't cry easily anymore," Helena said.
"That's right, Helena is even cuter like this." Qin Ge said with a smile, "When you have nothing to do, learn more from your sister St. Louis. Look how happy she is in her day."
"Haha, the commander is very similar to Sister Louise. She sometimes says that too." Helena said.
"Because everyone is worried about you, everyone wants you to be happier." Qin Ge smiled, "So stand by my side from now on, and let's finish this date happily, okay?"
"Yes, I will."
Helena nodded heavily in agreement, and the result was that the two of them were filled with laughter and joy during the following date, and they also left with more beautiful memories of each other.
When the sun was setting, Qin Ge walked out of the restaurant with Helena. At Helena's suggestion, the two of them came to the river again and sat on the bench again.
"Commander, thank you. I'm so happy today." Helena said to Qin Ge.
"As long as you are happy, you should be happy like this every day in the future." Qin Ge said with a smile.
"Well, Commander, I'll do my best." Helena nodded, then looked at the setting sun in the sky. "It feels like time has passed so quickly. Before we know it, we're going back."
Qin Ge smiled and said, "Yes, time is always like this, it passes by in a hurry, so in order to retain these disappearing times, people invented things that can be used to record photos.
By the way, I took a lot of photos today. I'll ask Helena to find Gridley and ask her to develop a few extra photos and leave a copy for me."
"Yeah." Helena nodded.
"Well, the next is the most important moment." Qin Ge said with a smile, reaching into his pocket and taking out the specially prepared oath ring.
Although she had anticipated such a moment, Helena's heart still skipped a beat the moment Qin Ge took out the ring.
"There is no need for us to say too much to each other. We have fought together and grown together. The past has carried a lot of things. I hope this ring can give you strength. No matter what difficulties you encounter or where you are, you can feel that I am always by your side supporting and encouraging you." Qin Ge said to Helena.
"Well, is this the Commander's promise to me... I'm so happy!" Helena smiled sweetly with tears in her eyes, "I will always be by the Commander's side, no matter when!"
"Um."
