I think everyone would choose that.

After packing his things, Plymouth let out a sigh of relief and wiped away non-existent sweat.

Then I looked around at the house I've lived in for many years.

Suddenly, I feel a little reluctant to leave.

But you know, one must always look forward; that's life.

Plymouth has already figured out how to smoothly integrate itself into the port area.

Chapter 608 Plymouth: They Won

"Commander, I want this."

On the street, Binjiang pulled Ren Shuo into a bar.

Ren Shuo couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to go into the tavern with Binjiang.

A decent tavern still has a somewhat antique feel to it.

The old-fashioned furnishings and atmosphere, and the wooden signs with ink writing on the types of alcohol.

Osmanthus wine, peach blossom wine, and even plum wine.

It can be said that it is very Donghuang.

Ren Shuo clicked his tongue in amazement: "There are shops like this here?"

"Well, this is the only place in this area where you can taste Donghuang wine. I come here often."

Binjiang explained without turning his head, then enthusiastically addressed the waiter behind the counter... or in this shop, he should be called a waiter, anyway, he just said something.

"Xiao Wang, the usual, one serving of each type of wine... never mind, two servings then."

After thinking about it, Binjiang changed his mind.

Upon seeing Binjiang, the shop assistant smiled and said, "Miss Binjiang, why are you buying two portions today? Do you have guests at home?"

"It wasn't a guest; it was a gift."

Binjiang has been leeching off Yixian Brew's wine too much these past few days, so he's a little embarrassed and can only say this.

"Haha, then I'll help you pack it properly."

Xiao Wang was all smiles as he went behind the counter to get busy.

After a brief wait, Binjiang took the wine and then said to Ren Shuo with a matter of course, "Commander, here's the money."

Ren Shuo's lips twitched twice: "I'll pay for what you bought?"

"And then you used it to give to my ship girl?"

"Hmph, who told you to be my commander? Let me tell you, I've wanted to try this for a long time: going out to buy things and having the commander pay for them. It's just too awesome."

"Fine, I guess I ended up with you... How much?"

Xiao Wang gave Ren Shuo a number, and while giving Ren Shuo change, he congratulated him, saying, "So this is Miss Binjiang's commander. Congratulations!"

"Hmph, that's right." Binjiang was very happy.

"Here's your change, take care."

Thank you.

Holding a wine jug in his hand, Binjiang walked down the street humming a tune, with Ren Shuo following closely behind him.

Ren Shuo watched Binjiang stagger around and couldn't help but ask, "You have ship-mounted storage space, and you even put all the wine in there, so why are you carrying a bottle along?"

"Commander, you don't understand. The atmosphere of walking down the street after drinking is just wonderful."

"I don't understand..." Ren Shuo smiled wryly, "but I find it very troublesome."

"I seem a bit tired. Oh well, let's pack it back."

This was actually the first time Binjiang had done this. He felt that the chivalrous figures in TV dramas did it in a very cool way, so he wanted to imitate them.

But after walking for only a short while, his hands got a little tired, and the novelty wore off, so he obediently put the bottles back.

Then Binjiang made up an excuse for himself: "Well, I'm afraid that if I bump into it on the street, the bottle will break, which would be a big problem."

Ren Shuo looked at the almost deserted streets, then silently gazed at Binjiang without saying a word.

Oh well, as long as the silly girl is happy.

That said, after getting to know him, why is it that Binjiang, to put it nicely, is carefree and unpretentious, but to put it bluntly...

Wouldn't that make him just as foolish as Zuikaku?

Then I thought about it again and it seems that Binjiang and Ruihe have a pretty good relationship. They often fight together, and then they drink and eat together during their breaks...

Although he had only been in the port area for a short time, Ren Shuo had already eaten double digits of meals, which made him realize.

This wave, this wave is called "ships gather in clusters, fools form groups."

Yeah, that makes sense, because it seems like Santiago gets along pretty well with both of them.

"Hmm, I have a feeling that you're thinking something rather rude, Commander."

Binjiang shuddered, turned around with a suspicious look, and sized up Ren Shuo.

Ren Shuo's expression remained unchanged: "Your imagination."

"Oh my, isn't this Commander Binjiang and Commander Ren Shuo? What a coincidence, greetings."

A soft voice rang out, and Ren Shuo and Binjiang looked up and saw Plymouth in a snow-white dress.

"Plymouth, why aren't you at work?"

Binjiang greeted everyone in a very casual and easygoing manner.

Good afternoon, Plymouth. What a coincidence!

Actually, it's not a coincidence at all, because I was waiting for you right here.

“What a coincidence,” Plymouth said with a smile.

Binjiang stroked his chin, as if he had discovered something, and said with a happy expression, "Plymouth, when did you learn to skip work too?"

I remember it clearly; Plymouth never rests on Mondays.

Before, when I skipped work to go drinking with Chkalov, Plymouth would always scold me. Now, hehe, even though I've resigned, I can still mock them, right?

"I didn't skip work, I just resigned."

Plymouth shrugged and said.

"You resigned? When did that happen?" Binjiang asked quickly.

"Hmm, just a few days ago."

Binjiang was very puzzled: "Why? Where are you going after you resigned?"

Plymouth casually replied, "Let's just take it one step at a time."

"Then why did you resign? Tell me?" Binjiang asked, very curious.

“Well…” Plymouth looked a little embarrassed. “That’s a long story.”

Ren Shuo understood and invited, "Why don't you come sit with us? Belfast is preparing dinner right now."

“Isn’t this inappropriate?” Plymouth said reservedly.

Binjiang decisively said, "Then forget it. Anyway, you're not familiar with the girls here."

Although Plymouth was still smiling, the bulging veins on his forehead revealed his inner turmoil.

It's hardened; its fists have hardened.

Binjiang, are you deliberately picking a fight?

Ren Shuo quickly said, "It's alright, it's just one more pair of chopsticks. Besides, you and Brest are here, so you and your friends can have a good chat."

Plymouth loosened his fist: "Then I shall accept your offer."

Ren Shuo led the way, and as Plymouth passed by someone, he glared at Binjiang.

I thought to myself, "You just wait, you're deliberately sabotaging me, aren't you?"

Binjiang, however, had a hint of smugness in his eyes. Hmph, who gave you that reserved look? Get this straight, you're the one begging us for a favor right now!

After being suppressed for so many years, Binjiang can finally hold its head high and vent its anger. First, it dealt with Brest, and now it has made Plymouth suffer... It's absolutely exhilarating.

Both Binjiang and Plymouth were aware of her resignation, but since she was someone who needed to help their commander salvage the ship, they could only talk about it and couldn't make things too difficult for her.

The other one is to be more reserved, indicating that she is not just any ship girl, but also has a favor to ask of someone.

And then it turned out like this.

…………

"I am back."

Ren Shuo took out his key, opened the door, and went inside.

Belfast was already waiting in the entryway. She immediately took the things from Ren Shuo's hands, put away his slippers, and neatly arranged the shoes he had taken off.

"Hey Belfast, we have guests."

And following closely behind her was Plymouth, with a gentle expression.

Upon seeing Belfast, Plymouth's smile widened even further: "It's nice to meet you again, Miss Belfast."

"Good day, Miss Plymouth," Belfast replied in return.

"Thank you for your hard work, Commander. What did you buy?" Yi Xian also came out of the kitchen.

Ren Shuo gestured with his lip: "Isn't this just accompanying this drunkard to go shopping? We bought a lot of wine... The remaining raw materials are with Belfast."

"Commander, who are you calling a drunkard!" Binjiang shouted. "Was I drinking it for myself? I was drinking it to return the favor to Yixian."

As he spoke, he took out the wine he had bought and handed it to Yixian: "Hehehe, I feel a little embarrassed that I've been drinking your wine all these days."

"You're too kind." Yi Xian didn't refuse and accepted it.

Ren Shuo said, "Didn't you buy two of each kind? Where are they?"

"Can't I keep one for myself?" Binjiang said.

“Alright, you can keep it and drink it,” Yi Xian said.

Ren Shuo only mentioned it briefly and didn't continue.

"Hmm, add an extra pair of chopsticks tonight. Plymouth has something to discuss with Binjiang and the others."

Ren Shuo said.

Binjiang didn't react for a moment: "When did I...?"

Then Brest quietly leaned over and covered Binjiang's mouth.

“Commander, don’t worry about it. You guys are busy. I do have a lot to discuss with Plymouth.”

The wait for dinner always seemed long, so Ren Shuo and the others sat on the sofa, drinking some tea and eating some fruit.

"So, what exactly is the reason? You resigned." Binjiang leaned forward, looking curious.

“It’s all because of you and Brest,” Plymouth said, looking somewhat troubled.

"What's it to us?" Binjiang asked innocently.

"You left with Commander Ren Shuo first, right? And then you took Brest with you, right?"

Plymouth began her accusation.

“Yes, that’s right.” Binjiang nodded. “But what does that have to do with this?”

"Then, because Brest left, Prince Rupprecht left with him, right?"

"Also, you tricked Chekalov into resigning, didn't you?"

Plymouth started counting on his fingers.
