Chapter 151: Volume 3 - 43 Ann Lei is Back_3
Audrey, both embarrassed and angry, said, "Who told you to do... that thing? I meant for you to be the supervisor of the Power Cabin."
Fatty saw that she was serious, silently drank his wine, and said, "I can’t help you. I’m going back to Mezrich to devote myself to the great cause of resisting the Federation’s invasion for the Empire, to contribute my entire life to the strength of the homeland. How can I waste time on a smuggling ship, and indulge in the embrace of a beauty?"
Fatty spoke these words with righteousness, somewhat resembling the patriotism of Gazalin’s people. However, when he talked about being in the embrace of a beauty, his lecherous glance at Audrey’s chest was quite a mood killer. Audrey widened her eyes in disbelief, murmuring, "Are you planning to join the military in Gazalin?"
Fatty shook his head and said, "In the face of our nation’s peril, it is our duty to join the army. Unfortunately..." He shook his head and sighed, "My body is too frail, it’s more a case of having the will but not the strength."
Audrey nearly brandished a knife wildly; even a guy like him could shamelessly claim to be frail.
After a deep breath to calm herself down, Audrey turned her face away to avoid looking at Fatty’s hateful grin, and said angrily, "Fatty, if you don’t want to stay, just say so. Stop making excuses."
Fatty smiled slightly and said, "And how suitable are you for this smuggling business? As I said before, maybe it’s time to wash your hands and find a new life. Perhaps you’ll be much happier."
Audrey turned back, saying gloomily, "You wouldn’t understand. I grew up on this ship. It’s like home to me. Apart from this work, I don’t know how to do anything else."
