"Um..."
After careful thought and thorough analysis, Zhu Haomiao suddenly slapped his forehead.
"Right, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., that bald, one-eyed black guy, whose head looks just like a boiled egg."
"......"
Because of Zhu Haomiao, Tony had delved deeply into the history and culture of East University, inevitably encountering so culinary delights.
Images of boiled eggs appeared before his eyes, overlapping with the shiny head in his mory. Tony’s mouth twitched uncontrollably, taking a full two seconds to suppress it.
"His na is Nick Fury."
As soon as the words fell, Tony suddenly realized sothing, and the smile on his face slowly froze.
Wait, I don’t think I’ve ever told him I know Nick Fury!
S.H.I.E.L.D. is an even more top-secret existence!
Not only does he know about S.H.I.E.L.D., but he’s also aware of my connection with Nick Fury?
This only happened not long ago!
Before that, even I didn’t know about this mysterious organization that secretly protects the world!
Thinking of this, Tony shot a complicated glance at Zhu Haomiao.
Aren’t you All-Knowing and All-Powerful?
Why does it feel like you know everything?
On the other side, unaware of Tony’s subtle emotions, Zhu Haomiao nodded joyfully.
"Yes, yes, just give the Cosmic Rubik’s Cube to Nick Fury and say you picked it up by the roadside."
"......"
Can sothing this extraordinary really be found by the roadside?
And I just happened to be the one who knows Nick Fury and found it?
How do I know this thing belongs to S.H.I.E.L.D.?
Looking at the radiant transparent cube in his hand, Tony hesitated to speak.
Could you co up with a more believable reason?
This is way too perfunctory!
It’s full of holes!
After hesitating for a few seconds, Tony carefully probed.
"Nick wouldn’t believe such an excuse. If this thing is really important, what if he investigates thoroughly?"
"Um..."
Realizing he had tossed Tony a hot potato, Zhu Haomiao pondered for a few seconds, reluctantly pursing his lips.
"Then you can disclose my existence to a limited extent."
Hearing this, Tony slightly relaxed: "That’ll do."
Knock knock~
At that mont, a knocking sound softly echoed, and a middle-aged man in a tracksuit stood by the door, curiously observing the unfamiliar young man in black.
"Tony, do you have a guest?"
"Should today’s combat training be postponed?"
Upon hearing this, Tony Stark ca back to his senses, shaking his head.
"No need, we’ll start right away!"
As his last hope, Tony hadn’t given up on practicing the Constant Star lting Furnace Body Tempering Technique. Privately, he expended a lot of energy every day, though the results weren’t very noticeable.
Imdiately, noticing Zhu Haomiao’s interested gaze, Tony politely introduced him.
"Happy Hogan, my bodyguard and good friend."
"Happy, this is Zhu Haomiao, Mr. Zhu."
Keenly sensing the rare respect and reverence in Tony’s words, Happy Hogan subtly studied the elegant and poised young man in black, secretly wondering.
What’s this kid’s background?
To make Tony treat him so earnestly?
It vaguely felt like Tony wasn’t introducing so young kid, but rather a person significant enough to influence the world’s balance!
In that brief mont, Happy’s thoughts raced, quickly adjusting his mindset, and he respectfully extended his hand.
"Hello, Mr. Zhu, it’s a pleasure to et you."
"Hello, Happy."
Exchanging a polite handshake, Zhu Haomiao looked Happy up and down with interest, noting his broad shoulders and muscular build, though the muscles under the fat made him appear a bit hefty.
A hands-on expert...
Within normal human limits, considered top-tier...
Nodding secretly to himself, Zhu Haomiao didn’t exchange further pleasantries, letting Tony and Happy don their gloves and gear to engage in a friendly spar.
Beside him, Pepper hesitated for a long ti, unable to resist softly asking.
"Mr. Zhu, can you really not help Tony?"
Staring straight ahead at the combat on the ring, Zhu Haomiao murmured aningfully.
"Pepper, you’ve beco Slothful."
"A person’s fate should be in their own hands. Facing difficulties and praying for divine aid will only foster dependence, never allowing one to grow..."
"Moreover, can I protect him for a mont, but not a lifeti?"
Speaking as he glanced at the sweat-drenched Tony struggling on, Zhu Haomiao raised a satisfied smile, dreamily murmuring.
"There’s an old saying in China: relying on mountains, they may collapse; relying on people, they may run away."
"Such a simple truth, you couldn’t see through it, but Tony did."
"The once immature, attention-seeking big boy has now beco mature and resilient. That’s his growth!"
"The path of nature is vigorous, and a gentleman never stops strengthening himself."
"His transformation is not just about the iron suit, but more importantly, an indestructible Spirit!"
"Only such a strong Spirit can support him to make the ultimate stand as a Mortal..."
The faint voice trailed off, and even though Pepper was close, she couldn’t clearly hear the youth’s murmurs, only catching a few keywords indistinctly.
Mature, growth, Spirit...
With complex emotions, Pepper looked at Tony, drenched in sweat in the ring, finally realizing how quietly he’d beco more courageous and resolute.
Even faced with the threat of chronic death, he didn’t flinch!
He’s no longer just a big kid playing with toys, but a true Super Hero!
Knock knock!
At this mont, the open door was knocked again, and a stunning beauty with a graceful figure, holding a docunt, scanned the room, imdiately attracting the attention of the three n inside.
The two in the ring ceased their fight, and even Zhu Haomiao couldn’t help but cast his gaze.
Natasha Romanoff...
More enchanting than imagined, like a blooming rose with thorns, just standing there, she exudes a strong presence, akin to the ’Main Character’ stepping onto the stage, drawing everyone’s attention.
More beautiful than Scarlett, a better figure...
Supernatural Charm...
The scent of Lust...
Rubbing his chin, Zhu Haomiao looked playfully at Natasha, noticing that at the mont she spotted him, her pupils sharply constricted, and her muscles tensed up.
Though she returned to normal in less than a second, her Flickering gaze exposed her inner tension and fear.
On the other side, noticing all the n’s unanimous focus, Pepper discreetly rolled her eyes.
Indeed, n are all the sa!
Even Mr. Zhu is no exception!
Unaware of Pepper’s internal grumbling, Zhu Haomiao watched Natasha gracefully stride forward, a slight smirk on his lips.
