Chapter 533: Tell You A Joke.

This scene scared even the commander himself. Although the camera was small, it was still made of metal, and yet it was crushed into fine powder with only his hand. China was indeed a mysterious country, and to think that there was such a mysterious person.

“Mr. Mie, they will go to Brewer in a day or two. You might as well join them.”

From their previous conversation, Jiang Zhiming knew the army’s course of action and spoke in a timely manner.

“I like to act alone!” Xiao Luo firmly stated this time that he didn’t want to associate with many people. If he was alone, he could do whatever he wanted. Furthermore, if he was able to locate Sarah Michelle, there would be no unnecessary distraction and taking care of others.

Jiang Zhiming’s face was red, Xiao Luo clearly placed heavy emphasis in this sentence. This was basically saying that they were his burden along the way. But when he thought about it carefully, they truly were a burden. He could only smile in embarrassment.

……

……

Jiang Zhiming and others left, while Xiao Luo also went on his way.

In addition to giving three military vehicles to Jiang Zhiming and others, the government also gave Xiao Luo a jeep.

Xiao Luo drove the jeep at a breaknecking pace towards Brewer City. Everywhere he went, the car stirred up dust, the vehicle was like a small dust storm generator.

Without the fetters and responsibilities, Xiao Luo’s mood was very comfortable, which was the main reason why he drove so wildly and freely.

Of course, while driving he also paid close attention to those minefields warning signs ahead. Whether it be the rebels or the government forces, once they bury mines for ambush, they would definitely leave warning signs to avoid accidentally injuring their own people.

After passing through several villages along the way, he saw women and children with bleak eyes and desperation on their face, just like the rest of the people in this war filled land. The war not only rendered them homeless, it also made them ravaged from hunger.

There were canned foods in Xiao Luo’s car, but it was only enough for him. Moreover, he was not a Saint and would give his food to these hungry people. Although he saw some children who looked like walking skeletons from hunger, basically just skin and bones, which made his heart uncomfortable. However, this was not something he could change. He could only speed through these villages and get out of sight as soon as possible, and clear his mind.

At night, he found a concave corner against a slope. He parked his car inside, and prepared to make do with the night.

Nights in Libya were very quiet. There were no insects or birds, and no stars in the sky. It felt like God had forsaken this place.

Xiao Luo lowered his seat and lay comfortably when his phone rang. When he took a look, it was Su Li. His phone was a satellite phone so it was possible to reach him even at this place.

What’s going on? Why is she calling?

Xiao Luo raised his eyebrows, and answered.

“Where are you?” Su Li asked coldly.

“Didn’t I tell you I was traveling?” Xiao Luo replied.

Su Li said, “I’m asking where you are.”

“Abroad.” Xiao Luo replied vaguely.

“Abroad?” Su Li was surprised, she thought Xiao Luo just travelled in China.

“Hmm.”

“In which country?”

“Maldives.” Xiao Luo casually said a name.

“Maldives? Isn’t that where newly married couples go to spend their honeymoon?” Su Li suspiciously said.

Xiao Luo coughed, “Who said that it’s only for honeymoons? The scenery here is great. Is it strange that I am here to relax?”

“Not surprising, not surprising at all, then just continue there alone.” Su Li sneered then hung up the call.

“Angry again?”

Xiao Luo looked at the ended call screen and frowned. It was really hard to understand this woman. She assumed too much while saying that their marriage was just a contract. Sometimes he really wanted to ask her, just what are your thoughts exactly?

In China, at Star Moon Bay Hotel…

Su Li put down her phone and gnashed her teeth in anger. “This guy didn’t even ask if I wanted to go too. He simply went to Maldives alone, he’s probably someone else’s third wheel!” Few things could make her furious, and bizarrely this was one of those.

In fact, she had been thinking about having a honeymoon.

Luo Pingxiang next to her did not dare to take a breath, it was the first time she saw Su Li in such a mood.

At this moment, her phone received a new message. Su Li glanced at it. It was from Xiao Luo.

It was a short line ‒ [Next time, I’ll find a good place. Let’s go together and relax.]

Has this fool finally come to his senses?

Although Su Li was actually looking forward to their trip together, she replied ‒ [Who wants to go with you?!]

Hey, what is this?

Xiao Luo saw her reply, and was slightly surprised. It seemed that it was better to communicate with this woman by texting.

He immediately replied ‒ [It’s because we rarely spend time together.]

[Then why didn’t you take me to Maldives with you?]

Across the screen, Xiao Luo could feel Su Li’s resentment. He finally understood why this woman got angry. It was because he ‘went to Maldives’ without inviting her and she also blamed herself for saying something wrong, saying it was only a holy place for honeymoons.

[Don’t be like this. When I come back, let’s go together, OK?]

[No way.]

[Miss Su, don’t be angry, ok? Would you like me to tell you a joke?]

[……]

[Why did the chicken cross the road?]

[Why?]

[To get to the other side.]

(Tl: I have no idea what the actual joke is so I just changed it to a classic, similar in style or the way it was told, that everyone knows.)

Xiao Luo told a joke he remembered. Of course, he dared not tell Zhang Dashan’s dirty jokes.

[It’s not funny at all.] ‒ Su Li said.

[Then I’ll tell you another one.]

After the joke, Su Li texted again ‒ [It’s still not funny.]

[Miss Su, you are too difficult to please.]

Xiao Luo continued to send jokes.

But in reality, Su Li on the other end of the phone was actually laughing.

‘So this man also has a silly side!’

Her smile was like a flower, and the unhappiness she was feeling vanished into thin air.

The two continued texting each other and the distance between the two seemed to have gotten closer.

After their texting session ended, Xiao Luo looked at the long text history, and froze. What happened today? Why did he suddenly start telling her jokes? It’s not his style.

“It must be that Zhang Dashan who influenced me!”

Xiao Luo blamed this on Zhang Dashan, because Zhang Dashan was the only one who liked telling jokes and coaxing people.

Meanwhile in Jiang City, Zhang Dashan, who was lying in bed and sound asleep, sneezed and woke up. He wiped his nose with a Kleenex tissue, and said, “Sh*t, who is talking about me?”

After saying that, he fell asleep again.
