"He rejected," Robert simply reported.
"Mhmm." Lying on the recliner, Jiang Chen gazed at the calm coastline as he lazily held his phone.
Although it was regrettable, it was expected. After all, Johnny had enjoyed the life of being above tens of thousands of people. It was obviously unrealistic to ask him to give up everything here and scram to a small corner to spend the rest of his life in obscurity with just a phone call.
Especially now that his wings had hardened, it was reasonable for him to try and break free from the rope around his neck.
"Sh * t, I don't understand. Just kill that piece of trash. Why make it so troublesome? If he really accepted to retire in Australia, are you really going to let him go? "Robert complained.
Johnny knew too much. Keeping him alive would be a threat.
"It's highly likely that he will choose to refuse … But after all, he has made some contributions to my career. Giving him a way out is a courtesy. Of course, I deeply regret that he made the wrong choice. "
Although Jiang Chen didn't have the slightest hint of regret on his face when he said this sentence.
"… Okay. Let's not talk about that idiot. This time, the Liberal Party was beaten pretty badly. "Robert's tone had a hint of mockery.
"You guy, they bought the firearms from you. Do you laugh at the customer like that?" Jiang Chen laughed.
"I remember I taught the idiot who bought the firearms how to use the AT4 rocket launcher, but I heard those idiots didn't even destroy a single armored vehicle." Robert cursed at the idiot, but his voice had a hint of laughter.
Because the more they lost, the more advantageous it was for Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen smiled amiably and didn't respond to his words.
Not a single armored vehicle was destroyed, which was beyond their expectations. Based on Jiang Chen and Robert's prediction, even if the insurgents failed, they should be able to destroy two or three armored vehicles. If they were lucky, they might even be able to cause some trouble for the "Chieftain" main battle tank. The less heavy equipment on the island, the more advantageous it was for the next step of the plan.
The tropical climate made it easy for people to be lazy. Although he had a phone next to his ear, he still felt a sense of tiredness.
"Hello? Are you still listening? "Seeing no response for a long time, Robert asked.
"Ah, yes … Hmm, leave the rest to me."
"Eight armored vehicles, one main battle tank, and two Little Bird helicopters. Are you sure it's okay?" Robert was doubtful.
Although he participated in the establishment of Future Security, he didn't know the specifics of the training. Although they had been training for almost half a year, their opponents were still regular soldiers.
"Of course." Jiang Chen yawned.
"Alright, it seems like I was worrying too much. I won't bother your nap. "Robert joked as he hung up the phone.
Not to mention no problem, it would be more accurate to say that … it should be very easy.
He put the phone on the beach table and stretched out.
His thoughts drifted into the distance along with his gaze. He surrendered all his muscles to gravity, as if his entire body had relaxed.
He had had enough of the pressure of the wasteland and had seen enough of the yellowish-green radiation dust. The blue and white that entered his eyes made him feel exceptionally relaxed.
"If I could live here for the rest of my life, it would be a very happy thing." Jiang Chen murmured to himself as he closed his eyes.
After staying in the apocalypse for a long time, one would unknowingly be stained with some hostility. However, amidst the sound of the waves in the south, the hostility was greatly diluted.
Suddenly, a fragrant scent entered his nose.
A warm and soft skin gently touched the top of his head.
With a smile on his face, Jiang Chen opened his eyes. Just like he expected, the exotic beauty entered his eyes.
It was Ayesha.
When Jiang Chen just returned to the modern world, he asked her to come back.
The sea breeze ruffled her slightly curly hair. The white scarf outlined her petite and fit curves. The waistline on her lower abdomen extended all the way to the edge of her swimming trunks. Her fair skin was so dazzling under the tropical sun.
"You're here?" Jiang Chen smiled lazily.
"Ivan said you were here, so I came." The emerald eyes were full of gentle love. Ayesha smiled shyly as she gently hugged Jiang Chen's head from behind.
Feeling the gentle touch on his cheek, Jiang Chen smiled in satisfaction.
"Are you used to the climate here?"
Ayesha nodded, but the words that came out of her mouth were completely different from what she said before.
"I missed you."
No matter how many times he heard it, it would make his heart beat faster.
"Mhmm, me too."
He gently squeezed the hand that was caressing his cheek and kissed the back of her fingers.
Her fingers trembled as Ayesha's eyes were filled with mesmerizing mist.
Leaning over, she gave him a light peck on the lips.
Jiang Chen smiled and didn't say anything. He just quietly squeezed her hand and gazed at the line that connected the sea and the sky.
In the sound of the waves in the Southern Kingdom, the two stayed until sunset.
…
It was the southernmost tip of Pannu Islands. The tragedy at the northern end of Coro Island didn't disturb the peace at the southern end.
There were few people in the deep water port. The two berths were empty except for a few seagulls that dropped some bird poop. This small deepwater port, which cost at least five million US dollars to build, was perhaps a failed investment from the beginning. Occasionally, a ship would enter the port, but it was mostly to unload at Celestial Trade's warehouse.
Recently, the situation on the island was chaotic. The government was in a mess. The government army searched every house for anti-government forces, which made the people on the island fearful. The uprising failed in less than 12 hours. Everyone knew that the Liberal Party's time was up and they all cut ties with it.
Although the insurgents didn't injure President Edward, an AT4 rocket unfortunately drilled into his backyard and blew his meticulously trimmed garden into pieces. The enraged Edward immediately ordered to hang all the insurgents and ordered all residents to cooperate with the government soldiers. Anyone who dared to resist would be considered an accomplice of the insurgents.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang. I'm not sure if you've seen … um, armed thugs. " A Pannu soldier in a city camouflage uniform stood in front of the warehouse and asked Jiang Chen.
"No locals came here today, other than my guards." Jiang Chen smiled at the soldier.
"Is that so?" The soldier peeked into the warehouse, but he didn't go in.
Edward had specifically warned them not to offend these foreign investors during the search.
Pannu Islands was in the development phase and urgently needed foreign investment (bribery). If this riot affected the investors' evaluation of Pannu's investment value, it would be disastrous.
Although they received intelligence that a few Liberal Party members escaped to the southern end of Coro Island, there was no evidence to indicate that they must have escaped here.
The soldier looked at Jiang Chen one last time before he left with his comrades.
Jiang Chen watched the jeep disappear into the distance as he smiled and returned to the warehouse.
"Thank you."
Zhang Yaping walked out from the shadow behind the warehouse door. His face was pale as he stood in front of Jiang Chen and bowed to him.
