Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 885 A Night on the Beach and Mingmei’s Punishment!
Sergei put away his personal terminal, stood up, saluted He Ming, turned and left. He did not accept He Ming's invitation to stay and enjoy the beach reception together.

According to Sergei, since He Ming has appointed him as the first commander of the Feiling Fleet, he must perform his duties conscientiously and fulfill the responsibilities of the first commander and the tasks he has undertaken perfectly.

Only in this way can this new fleet survive the difficult infancy and smoothly embark on the path of growth, until it can meet He Ming's expectations for the Feiling Fleet to take over the important waterway garrisoned in the Edora-Qihangxing-Cygnus region.

Watching Sergei's back as he strode away from the beach, He Ming shook his head, sighed silently, stood up, and prepared to embark on the road of "heroic sacrifice".

Little did he know that the moment he turned around, two figures, one big and one small, were standing not far in front of him, staring at He Ming with wide eyes.

"Wow!"

Xiaoya shook her body excitedly, and the strips of objects wrapped in colorful wrapping paper that she was holding also began to shake along with her.

"Ah! Xiaoya, stop waving the fairy wand around!"

Seeing this, He Ming's scalp immediately went numb. He walked over, took the fairy wand from Xiaoya's arms, and looked at Hoshino Liuli who was holding Xiaoya.

"I got these from the big sister over there."

Hoshino Ruri blinked, looked at He Ming who was a little nervous, and pointed to the royal maids who were sorting out the next entertainment items not far away.

Moreover, the maids seemed to be paying attention to the situation here as well. As soon as they saw He Ming looking over, they immediately stopped what they were doing and bowed to He Ming in unison.

"General, they are your maids, right?"

Hoshino Ruri blinked her eyes and tried hard to look like a curious baby.

But, unfortunately...

Now, Hoshino Ruri is just a faceless little girl with no personality.

Although she tried to show a different expression, she was not very successful.

He Ming shook his head and raised his hand to gently pat Xingye Liuli's little head.

"No. The maids' jobs are just their hobbies. In fact, they are all my partners."

"is it?"

Hoshino Ruri tilted her head, her eyes filled with disbelief.

He Ming was speechless for a moment.

"Oh wow! Dad, Dad, this, this...this!"

Fortunately, Xiaoya interrupted the conversation between the two in time and kept shaking He Ming's right hand, wanting He Ming to return the fairy wand to her.

Seeing this, He Ming immediately went with the flow and waved to Dido who was closest to them.

The latter immediately understood and handed the lighter over to He Ming, and after saluting, he turned around and walked to a nearby place, waiting there.

Watching this scene, Hoshino Ruri's eyes rolled around, not knowing what she was thinking, but she was soon attracted by the light emitted by the fairy wand lit by He Ming.

"Oh oh oh oh!"

Xiaoya looked at the dazzling fireworks and immediately let out a burst of screams, reaching out to snatch them from He Ming.

Unexpectedly, after being repeatedly scolded by He Ming, who asked Xiaoya not to swing the fairy wand at people but at flowers and plants, He Ming carefully handed the fairy wand to Xiaoya, who was full of anticipation but had to agree to a bunch of requests.

This scene gradually changed Hoshino Ruri's expression.

"Come here! Your name is Hoshino Ruri, right? This is yours. Don't play with people or flowers, okay?" In a trance, Hoshino Ruri felt a warmth coming from her hands.

When she looked closely, she found that He Ming also stuffed a handful of fairy wands into her hand. After seriously reminding her of the precautions, he let her play with Xiaoya.

"Oh well."

Unconsciously, when Hoshino Ruri was playing with Xiaoya with the fairy wand, she would occasionally turn her head and glance at He Ming who was sitting next to her.

Soon after, there was a sharp sound that tore through the air, and a thunderous explosion was heard in the sky.

Everyone looked up when they heard the sound, and saw colorful fireworks in beautiful patterns appearing in the night sky.

The thunderous explosions and the continuous brilliant colorful lights made the little mermaid put down the fairy wand in her hand immediately. She shook her tail, pulled Hoshino Liuli, and sat down next to He Ming. They looked at the fireworks in the night sky together and shouted loudly, which made Hoshino Liuli feel helpless and gradually focused her attention on the brilliant fireworks.

After the gorgeous and beautiful fireworks, the ladies left one after another, leaving a lot of men still fighting on the beach.

Lin Mingmei took Xiaoya from He Ming's arms with a sweet smile and started "fishing" with her. The little head nodded slowly at Hoshino Liuli who was fighting sleepiness, and after giving He Ming a look that said "I'll settle the score with you later", she left with the girls.

He Ming was left alone to face the group of drunken gentlemen from the Fuzi who wanted to toast the general who allowed them to stand on the earth.

Originally, Lockeon wanted to stay and cover for He Ming, but unfortunately, under Lin Mingmei's vicious and extremely warning look, Lockeon immediately understood his situation. After encouraging He Ming helplessly, he hugged Haro and left swiftly.

"Admiral. These are the drinks that Lady Lin Mingmei prepared for this reception."

At the side, Belfast respectfully asked the maids to bring over boxes of wine.

Seeing this, He Ming gasped.

It seems that I will not go home until I am drunk tonight.

As the glasses were being toasted and the night was being celebrated, when the sun once again began to set over the dark sea, the beach was already a mess, with the men on the Fushiko falling down in large numbers.

No matter it was the PROSPECTOR with a calculating look on his face, or Tianhe Mingren who wanted to be a chef, they all lay on the table or rolled on the beach, reeking of alcohol and soundly sleeping.

In the middle, a few people got drunk and wanted to stand up to continue drinking, but they swayed a few times and fell down again.

He Ming put down the wine glass in his hand, squinted his eyes, looked at the sea surface which was still covered with a layer of golden light by the morning light, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

These animals are really risking their lives!

They worked together to get him drunk all night.

Originally, although they wanted to respect He Ming, for some reason the big man from the Fuzihao targeted Tianhe Mingren first.

He Ming, who saw through all this, was also happy and relaxed. Apart from occasionally responding to toasts, he was enjoying watching Tianhe Mingren being besieged.

Who would have thought that Tianhe Mingren, who was almost drunk and about to fall down, actually pulled He Ming into the water, ran over to toast He Ming, then lay straight on the beach and fell asleep.

Then, the big men of the Fuzi, who had lost their target, set their sights on He Ming until they were all killed by He Ming.

"Oh! These guys are really crazy!"

He Ming shook his head, feeling a little dizzy.

Fortunately, my physique has grown strong enough, otherwise, I would have become one of those lying on the beach.
