Buzz--
With a sudden brake, a gorgeous Audi supercar stopped in front of the entrance of the disney concert hall.
When Tony got off the car with Mark, the crowd immediately became restless.
" Weapons manufacturing is only a small part of Stark Industrial Empire. Our relationship with the fire rescue team..." Obadiah, who was being interviewed by the reporters, felt the sudden noise and turned to look outside.
"If the host of the party doesn't come, what's the point of the whole world coming?”Tony brought Mark to Obadiah's side and asked him for an explanation.
"Hey, look at that, look at that. This is really a surprise!”Obadiah awkwardly changed the subject.
Tony saw that there were reporters beside him and took the initiative to save him some face. He did not continue to make things difficult for him."Let's go in and talk."
After saying that, he pulled Ma Ke into the concert hall.
"That bearded baldy's expression just now was so funny, it was like a driver driving the owner's car out to show off and coincidentally bumped into the owner, hahaha.”After Ma Ke entered the concert hall, he finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Haha, to be honest, I think it's quite funny too!”Tony, who was originally in a bad mood, was in a better mood after hearing Mark's joke. He laughed with him.
The two of them went to the drinks counter. Tony asked the waiter for a glass of Scotch whiskey and a glass of fortified milk for Mark.
At this moment, a man in a black suit beside them took the initiative to communicate,"Hello, Mr. Stark. I'm Agent Coulson.”
" Oh right, that's from…" Tony could not remember the name of the organization.
"It's the National Strategic Defense, Attack, and Logistics Support Bureau.”Ma Ke reminded.
" That's right," said Coulson." Thank you, kid."”
"Gosh, you should change the name of your department.”Tony complained.
"Yes, I often hear people say that.”Coulson responded with a smile that was neither awkward nor polite.
However, at this moment, Ma Ke excitedly suggested,"How about S.H.I.E.L.D.? S.H.I.E.L.D. You can suggest it to your commanding officer.”
Mark was excited because he did not expect to encounter such a good opportunity. If he was the one who proposed the name S.H.I.E.L.D., he would feel proud just thinking about it. After all, he was involved in it.
"Not a bad name. Simple and direct, but it has a deep meaning. I will suggest it to my superior.”
"I think so too. Why is S.H.I.E.L.D. looking for me?”Tony took a sip of wine and asked Coulson.
" It's like this," Coulson said." I know that this period of time is very difficult for you, but I still have to ask you some questions. There are still many things that have yet to be resolved. Of course, time is also a problem. Let's record something down. How about we meet at Stark Industries on the 24th at 7 pm?”
Tony extended his right hand and shook Coulson's.""Guess what? I think you're right. I agree. Now I'm going to go to my secretary and settle things.”
After saying that, Tony walked towards Pepper, who was wearing a blue silk backless evening gown. Even Mark, who was beside him, was forgotten.
"I'm guessing he'll have forgotten all about it.”Mark patted Coulson's arm and spoke to him.
"Why?" Coulson was confused.
"Didn't you see that when he was listening to you just now, his dazed little eyes were already attracted by Pepper's back? Sigh, you can actually become a special agent with such insight. I think you're more suitable to be a negotiation expert. You have a special temperament that makes people get close to you easily.”
"Thank you for your reminder, but I'll still be on time. And don't look at me like this. I'm also an experienced old agent. Of course, it's not a problem for me to be a negotiation expert. But you're still out with Mr. Stark so late at night. Won't you be tired in class tomorrow?”
"Aiya, look, as an agent, you want to ask my father for the answers you need, but you don't even know if his illegitimate son is learning. Wasn't the investigation done too perfunctorily?”Mark pretended to be disappointed and shook his head. He just felt a little bored and wanted to kill time with Coulson.
"I just want to ask Mr. Stark how he escaped from the terrorists, not to investigate his personal situation. Under normal circumstances, special departments like us will still abide by the law to protect the privacy of citizens.
But you don't look like you're going to school before you reach adulthood. Did you graduate early like Mr. Stark?”
"No, I've never been to school at all. I've been self-studying since I was young. I already know what the school teaches. Why would I go to school? Isn't it a waste of time?”Mark's sudden posturing made Coulson speechless. This time, he could only smile awkwardly instead of politely.
……
On the other side, Tony had already locked his gaze on Pepper and arrived beside the goddess.""Hey, you look so beautiful tonight.”
"Why are you here?" Pepper was surprised that Tony appeared at the party. After all, she was the one who arranged Tony's schedule.
Tony: " I'm hiding from a government agent.”
"Did you come alone?"”
Tony: " No-I came with Mark. Where did you get this dress?"
"This is my birthday present," said Pepper awkwardly."You actually asked me to give it to myself on your behalf.”
At that time, Tony was busy fiddling with his black technology. When he heard that it was Pepper's birthday, he told her to give her a birthday present on her behalf. However, Pepper was indeed a competent secretary. She even helped Tony complete such a thing.
"It seems that my taste is not bad. Do you want to dance?" However, Tony did not feel embarrassed at all. He was already used to Pepper solving everything for him, even if it would make an originally romantic thing very boring.
"Oh, no." Pepper immediately refused.
"Alright, come on." Tony took her hand and led her to the dance floor.
"Thank you, Mr. Stark. But there's really no need."
But obviously, Tony, who had already entered the domineering CEO mode, would not listen to the other party's rejection. Tony put his arm around Pepper's waist, and the two of them swayed on the dance floor.
"You look uncomfortable?" Feeling Pepper's stiff body and unnatural expression, Tony asked.
" No... I just forgot to put on my body lotion. Now I'm dancing with my boss..." Pepper stammered and didn't tell him the real reason.
In fact, it was a serious problem to dance with a boss like Tony in a backless evening gown. For a professional secretary like Pepper, this would make people point fingers at her and gossip about her.
"You look very beautiful and smell very fragrant. But I can fire you if it makes you feel better.”Tony's words showed that he understood the meaning behind Pepper's words, but he did not stop dancing with Pepper. He did not care about what others said, because now he only had eyes for Pepper in front of him.
Sensing the sincerity in Tony's eyes, Pepper also relaxed and joked,""In fact, I don't think you'd even know how to tie your shoelaces without me.”
Tony: " I can last a week.”
"Really? I don't believe it." Pepper asked in Lu Yu's way,""Do you know your social security number?”
"Do you want to go out for some fresh air?" Unable to answer, Tony once again changed the topic.
"Alright, I also want to go out and get some fresh air.”
Arriving at the balcony, in a corner where only the two of them were, Pepper said something she was embarrassed to say in public,""I feel weird. It was as if everyone who worked with me was looking at the two of us.”
"Why? We're just dancing?”
"No, it's not just dancing. Because you are you, and everyone knows what kind of person you are and how you treat girls.
But you know, to me, you're my boss and I'm dancing with you…"
"I don't think they'll think the wrong way.”
"But that would make me look like the one who wanted to... you know, sugar daddy. " And I'm wearing this ridiculous dress..." As she spoke, she looked at Tony's focused eyes, which only reflected her own figure. Pepper unconsciously closed her eyes and slowly moved her lips closer to Tony.
However, Tony was nervous at this time. His body was stiff like a zombie who had just woken up from a coffin. He did not respond to Pepper's initiative at all.
Finally, Pepper stopped. She was a little disappointed with Tony's performance. She even believed that Tony might have some different feelings for her, but now she was not sure what Tony was thinking. Could this man, who could sleep with female models on magazine covers for a year, really have feelings for her?
