She explained her original intention, then turned around and cleared the countertop.
Although I only made one bowl of noodles, the table still needed to be tidied up.
Ares silently ate what she made, and inadvertently looked up at her again.
Charlotte happened to be busy with her back to him, so she didn't notice Ares's gaze.
His eyes were a little less cold, with a little warmth that was rare in normal times.
The two people in the room were very quiet, and no one spoke.
The only sound was probably that of Charlotte putting away the kitchen utensils.
After Charlotte finished cleaning up, he seemed to think of something again, and turned to Ares and said: "Sir, if it is convenient, can I leave your contact information?"
Probably because he didn't expect Charlotte to make such a request, Ares' eating movements slowed down unconsciously.
Immediately, he stopped his chopsticks temporarily and looked at her without saying a word.
Seeing him like this, Charlotte thought for a moment, and quickly added: "It's not your personal contact information, sir. Can you send me the number of the Talk machine? This way, I can contact you in advance during the weekend." Check to see if you need food delivery.”
In the military, officers above a certain level generally do not publish their personal contact information at will.
If anyone needs to contact them, it is usually through the assistant officer close to these people.
Even if you really need to talk to these superiors directly for work, most of them will only leave their work Talk phone numbers.
Charlotte felt that this was not a particularly excessive request. After all, she could not clearly know the hours this person worked overtime, and it was quite troublesome to run up to check every time.
Of course, Charlotte still added an additional sentence: "If it's inconvenient, forget it. I have Colonel Brown's contact information. I can ask him then."
It's just that it would be more troublesome to convey it back and forth like this, so Charlotte would mention it to Ares like this.
Ares, holding the chopsticks, remained silent. Just when Charlotte thought he would refuse, he unexpectedly agreed.
"Open your mind." Ares temporarily put the chopsticks on the edge of the bowl and turned to her.
After listening to his words, Charlotte quickly turned on her optical brain.
She was very discerning and prepared to take off her optical brain so that she could hand it to him so that it would be easier for him to operate it.
However, Ares glanced at the end of his eyes and said: "No need to take it off, just bring your hand closer."
Hearing this, Charlotte stopped removing the brain and moved her hand over.
Ares looked at the optical brain that was in front of him. The interface on it had already opened to the contacts.
She is always smart and always one step ahead of others.
The more he comes into contact with her, the more obvious this feeling becomes.
Ares took her hand and entered his number into her optical brain, and then performed some operations.
His fingers never touched her wrist, he just operated the floating interface in the void.
In this way, it is quite clear.
Charlotte didn't pay attention to these details, her attention was on his light brain.
She discovered that the optical computer he was using now seemed different from the previous one.
how to say? In terms of appearance design, I just feel that the model should be more advanced.
The military has always been very capable in the research and development of this kind of equipment, and its products are iteratively updated very quickly.
Compared with civilian optical computers, the military's optical computers are much more advanced.
The optical brain in Xia Luo's hand was given by Qin Shaoheng before. At that time, it was already considered a top-notch item for civilian use.
But after such a long time, of course it will no longer be the latest model, let alone comparable to the military version.
However, Charlotte has no pursuit for this. Anyway, she is not completely dependent on these technological devices.
Charlotte was standing nearby and watching when she heard a message sound coming from the optical brain in Ares' hand.
At this moment, Charlotte suddenly realized that what he was doing was not right.
He just gave her the number of the Talk machine, why did he need to turn on his optical computer?
She felt that he could have reported his number directly to her, so why did he have to perform so many redundant operations now?
Next to him, Ares lowered his head slightly, and his fingers were operating something on his optical brain.
Charlotte had a vague hunch in her heart, but as soon as the idea came up, she denied it.
Impossible, he couldn't give her his personal contact information. They didn't know each other that well.
Charlotte felt that with his current status as an intern, there was such an obvious gap between him and a high-ranking officer like him, and the two of them would definitely not have anything to do with each other in private.
"Okay." Ares quickly turned off his optical brain and picked up the chopsticks on the table.
Charlotte hurriedly lowered his head and looked at his optical brain interface. He sorted the items alphabetically without scrolling. His name was at the top of the page.
Charlotte opened it and saw that it was indeed his personal contact information!
Surprisingly...it's not the number of the Talk machine?
He even stored the names of the contacts for her. From the beginning to the end, the only thing Charlotte did was probably extend her hand.
Charlotte looked at Ares next to her in confusion. Could it be that he made a mistake?
Although this situation was unlikely, Charlotte still reminded him in a friendly way: "Sir, what you gave is a personal contact information, not a Talk phone number."
There was only the last bite of noodles left in the bowl. After Ares finished eating it, he said, "Well, I'm not necessarily in the office. For weekend food delivery, you can contact this number directly."
After hearing what he said, Charlotte understood instantly.
Indeed, office Talk machines are not that convenient after all.
If he was not in the office, she would have nowhere to ask, and would have to ask Colonel Brown to relay the information.
So, he was showing sympathy to his subordinates to save her from having to worry about delivering food?
Thinking of this, Charlotte felt that it seemed quite reasonable.
She is directly responsible for him for food delivery, which will indeed be more efficient.
It seems that he is really a good commander, and he cannot be defined simply by "coldness", "alienation", and "unkindness".
However, Charlotte still felt quite surprised. She never expected to get his personal contact information.
But to be honest, this period of time should probably come in handy.
When the orderly comes back from leave, she can quit her job.
While thinking about this, Charlotte consciously put away the dishes.
Ares no longer took the initiative to wash the dishes like he did at the beginning.
She would not agree to him taking care of it, both he and she knew.
After all, they are both equally smart and equally good at reading people's minds.
