Chapter 533 - Telling Jokes. (2/2)

Su Li put down her phone and clenched her teeth in frustration. “This fool! Doesn’t he know how to invite me along? He’d rather goes to the Maldives alone and be some others’ third wheel!” she hissed.

She was so mad, and nothing else in this world could upset her so much. She had long wanted to go on a honeymoon to make-up with her man.

Luo Pingxiang, standing beside her, did not even dare to comment as this was the first time she had seen Su Li this angry.

Suddenly, Su Li’s phone received a message.

Su Li glanced at it, and it was from Xiao Luo. It read: I’ll find a great place next time, we can travel together.

She thought, so this dumb*ss finally got it?

Su Li was caught off-guard, though it was a pleasant surprise. But being the prudish, spoilt person that she was, her response was like cold fish: Hmph, as if I wanted to travel with you!

Hmm? Is she throwing a tantrum?

Over in Libya’s war-torn lands, Xiao Luo received her message, and he was slightly surprised. It was easier to communicate with this woman through text, after all, and replied immediately.

Xiao Luo: You’ll have to come even if you don’t want to.

Su Li: Fine, bring me to the Maldives right now.

Xiao Luo could feel Su Li’s resentment coming through his screen, and he was beginning to understand what irked her. It took him this long to realize that she was furious because he had gone to the Maldives all by himself. So, he had nobody but himself to blame as he had used “honeymoon” as his excuse while he was stuck in a war zone.

Xiao Luo: That’s not happening. How about this, let’s come here again once I am back, is that alright?

Su Li: No.

Xiao Luo: Ms. Su, stop sulking. Let me tell you a joke.

“…”

Su Li: What do you mean by that?

Su Li: So, are you telling the joke?

Xiao Luo: Yes, of course.

Xiao Luo used the voice message function to tell her a joke he could recall. Of course, he would never crack Zhang Dashan’s sexual jokes.

Su Li texted back: That’s not funny at all.

Xiao Luo: Then I’ll tell you one more.

After Xiao Luo voice messaged her the joke, Su Li texted back: It’s still boring.

Xiao Luo: My fair lady, you are really tough to please, you know that?

Xiao Luo then used voice mail to tell another one.

Su Li, on the other end of the phone, burst out laughing.

So this man has a silly side, after all, she thought.

A genuine smile appeared on her face, and the dismay she felt earlier vanished after Xiao Luo’s series of text messages to comfort her.

They both exchanged their thoughts with messages and voice mails, and it somehow seemed like they were not so far apart from each other.

After they have ended the communication, Xiao Luo looked at the long chain of messages and was surprised. There were many words which he would never have uttered, and telling jokes was never his forte. What was wrong with him? Why did he suddenly decide to tell her jokes today? That wasn’t him at all.

It must be Zhang Dashan’s bad influence!

Xiao Luo decided to blame Zhang Dashan for it, as only Zhang Dashan would try to put someone at ease with jokes.

At Jiang Cheng, Zhang Dashan sneezed and woke up from his sleep. He wiped his nose with a napkin and cussed, “Damn, who’s thinking about me?”

He fell back into a deep slumber soon after.
