Chapter 379 Hypocrisy 4500 words Please vote for the end of the month!
Pepper Potts is very heartbroken. She feels that she will never be destined for a man in her life. She has no shortage of suitors. She graduated from a prestigious school, has a good family environment, is beautiful and capable, and is also the assistant to the president of Stark Group. Such conditions
How could there be no suitors?
But the problem is that she naturally likes to pursue high difficulties. She doesn't like people who like her. But the people she likes...are all jerks.
Not to mention Tony, the most important part of the famous playboy Pepper Potts' daily job is to come to Tony Stark's house every morning to help Tony 'clean up' his past tense girlfriends. Watch
Pepper Potts was surprised that she actually liked this bastard who lived a corrupt life, was extremely self-centered, and never considered others.
To be honest, Pepper does not deny that she hopes that her partner will have a certain financial foundation, but he does not want to worship money. Tony's wealth is not the main reason that attracts her. Could it be his talent? Pepper also admits that this
Playboy is indeed very talented, but the problem is that Pepper is not the kind of science student, and has no interest in any of Tony's scientific research. As for appearance... To be honest, Tony is indeed good-looking among the billionaires in the world.
But the problem is that among billionaires, there is an absolute preponderance of those over fifty years old... So Tony's appearance is not as good as expected, and he is not handsome enough, but that's it.
So why does she like Tony?
Pepper couldn't really explain it. All she could say was that this was damn fate.
Originally, Pepper was still worried about whether to continue her relationship with Tony, but then she met her first love. It has to be said that the previous encounter with Kai did not seem to Pepper to be a crime movie or a horror movie, but a crime movie.
A proper Mary Sue movie!
You see, the first love who separated many years ago due to family and misunderstanding met unexpectedly in the vast sea of people. Looking at each other, countless past events emerged in their hearts, some were happy, some were sad, and finally they became nostalgic for each other.
. Then the heroine was inexplicably involved in a murder case.
Then, in order to protect the woman, the man risked his life and saved the girl desperately. In the end, the two of them were crushed under the rubble together. In order to comfort the woman, even though the man broke his leg, he still calmly comforted the girl and let the girl
Under the dark and depressing ruins, there is no hope of giving up life...
Look, look, isn't it enough of a Mary Sue? At least in Pepper's opinion, this is just one sentence short of "You jump, I jump" compared to "Titanic".
Anyway, from Pepper's perspective, that's what happened. It's not that Pepper is stupid, it's that the girl really has lingering feelings for Adam. After all, first love occupies a special place in everyone's life. What's more, things are generally not perfect.
It’s not overdone, it’s just a filter. This is normal. Everyone’s perspective is different.
All in all, Pepper felt that this encounter with Kai was perfect. But afterwards, Kai's attitude was very strange. Pepper asked Kai several times, but he refused with various reasons. He also said that he had a girlfriend. Pepper checked
After some research, I found out that he actually had a girlfriend.
At that moment, Pepper felt the malice of the world and allowed herself to meet her first boyfriend, but he was already someone else's.
So Pepper could only focus on work, hoping to forget this bitter and embarrassing relationship. But in the blink of an eye, she saw Kai having sex with another Bitchi!
Scumbag!
At this moment, Pepper felt that life was too difficult. Why did the men she liked have such virtues?
Then, for some unknown reason, Tony invited Kay and Diana to have dinner together.
Then at the dinner table, the atmosphere became even more awkward.
Tony invited Kai to have dinner with him. In fact, he had no other intention. He just wanted to attack his love rival. Although Tony regarded pursuing Diana more as a game. What, you said love? Don't be ridiculous, Tony has not been here until now.
Until now, he had never thought that he would fall in love with a woman and marry her. That was not in line with his outlook on life.
He just likes high difficulty, and spending money can no longer satisfy him.
And he didn't like Kai from the beginning. This guy is too annoying. Just like Pepper likes Tony, Tony also likes Pepper. It's just that unlike Pepper who is hesitant about Tony's personal life, Tony is more complicated about Pepper.
Much.
He thinks Pepper is a good girl, so he doesn't want to hurt her. Tony knows his own thing. He is a bastard. He doesn't deny it himself. He even thinks that this is one of the reasons why he is so charming. He is afraid.
Responsible, so even though he does have a crush on Pepper, he suppresses himself and doesn't show it.
So when Pepper is such a beautiful woman by his side, he has never done anything inappropriate to her. This is very rare. In the past, his female assistant was equal to his bed partner. But since Pepper took office, it has been different.
.
But in turn, Tony was very disgusted with men approaching Pepper. This was a kind of possessiveness that was difficult to express.
By chance, Kai appeared next to Pepper.
This is really a meeting of old and new grudges, so Tony plans to let Kai realize the gap between them. He plans to use words to tease Kai, embarrass him, make him lose his temper, and make him give up his peek at Pepper.
It was childish, but that's what Tony did.
What's just frustrating is that from beginning to end, Kai ate quietly and basically turned a deaf ear to Tony's words.
After all, Kai was not interested in Tony's topics at all. Tony kept talking about the economy, luxury goods, various upper classes, and even the political situation at the dinner table. In short, they were all very high-end topics. Tony was not that bad, nor that
Nope, he was just very childish and wanted to make Kai understand that Pepper was something he couldn't afford to offend.
But the problem is that Kai has no interest in Pepper in the first place, and even less interested in Tony. Besides, he is not very good at those topics, whether in his previous life or in this life. You know, those luxuries in Kai's family are not the same.
He bought it, it was all bought by Kelly, and he didn't understand.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So I just kept my head down and ate. Don’t worry, this restaurant is not famous for its scenery. The food is really delicious, but a bit expensive.
, but it was Tony who paid anyway, so he didn’t care.
This is not the most depressing thing for Tony.
It's fine that Kay wasn't interested in Tony's topic, but Tony didn't know where he offended Diana. Any Tony's point of view was bound to be refuted by Diana. Later, not only did Tony not irritate Kay, but he was choked by Diana.
Extremely uncomfortable.
By the end of the dinner, Tony had forgotten that he was going to pick up Diana. Instead, the two of them were arguing over their differences in ideas.
Generally speaking, Tony would not be so shameless in arguing with a woman, but the problem is that Diana is fundamentally different from ordinary women. Her ideas are very different from the secular world, and even completely opposite in some aspects, so she
I disliked Tony very much, so my words were inevitably mixed with some personal emotions, and I despised Tony openly and secretly. Even the Clay Man was quite angry, not to mention the proud Tony.
So after going back and forth, Tony also forgot the original purpose, and instead started to compete with Diana.
Pepper looked at the two people and showed a helpless smile.
"He likes you very much." Kai swallowed the last bite of steak and suddenly said something unexpected.
Pepper was stunned, and Tony and Diana also stopped. They had no idea why Kai said that.
"What?" Pepper asked confused.
"Let me tell you, this rich young man likes you very much." Kai wiped his mouth with a napkin, curled his lips and said, "Although his methods are as childish as a sixth grader, he likes you." After that,
Kai threw the napkin on the table, picked up the red wine glass, swallowed the last sip of wine in it, and waved his hand to signal the waiter not to pour any more wine.
"I listened for a long time, and I roughly got the idea that what this handsome young man meant was to warn me not to get close to you. To be honest, what he did was completely beyond my expectation. I originally thought he would take out his checkbook and directly
Throw out a bunch of zeros to me and ask me to choose money or you. It's a pity that he didn't choose such a popular plot. It's a pity..."
I don't know what he was regretting. But his words made Tony suddenly petrified, and Pepper's face turned red.
"Besides, you also like him, right? I can see that since we sat down, your attention has been focused on him. If you don't know, you would think that you are an old couple." Pepper
This is indeed the case with Tony. Whenever Tony wants to do something, Pepper can detect it and help him do it right away. Even if it is such a small thing as adjusting the wine glass, Pepper can help Tony adjust it right away.
An angle that feels comfortable.
As he spoke, Kai pulled out the chair, and then helped Diana pull out the chair. In this regard, Kai has always done a good job, treating women as gentlemen, this kind of thing is the same in the East and the West.
And Tony and Pepper are still stupid.
Until Kai walked to Tony holding Diana's arm and patted him on the shoulder.
"Be brave, sixth grader, otherwise you may not have a girlfriend." After saying that, he took Diana and left.
At this time, Tony was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and his fur immediately exploded.
"Who...who is a sixth grader? You scumbag!!! I'm not that! No!"
In fact, Tony was not jumping at what Kai just said. What really made him unable to calm down was...how should he face Pepper?
As for Pepper, her face was red, but she didn't say anything. She didn't know what she was waiting for.
…
"Pfft!" After arriving in Kai's car, Diana finally couldn't help bursting into laughter. "What that guy just did was really... really funny."
Kai shook his head. He felt that these two people were too pretentious. Kai had always been insensitive to matters between men and women, but just like this, he could see that these two people had a crush on each other. But these two people pretended to hide it.
They are very good, thinking that only they know.
Tony should really thank him. Fortunately, he is not really Adam, otherwise Tony's little thoughts would really be blown away. Anyway, Kai was a little embarrassed when he saw Pepper. If he was really Adam, he would be able to face this as a matter of course.
They have feelings for each other, but the problem is that he is not Adam, and he has no other thoughts about Pepper. Every time he sees the way Pepper looks at him, Kai feels uncomfortable, so he simply gives in to this hypocritical couple.
"By the way, you said the Ares statue is missing, how did you come to Chicago?" Kai thought of the previous conversation between him and Diana. They were about to talk about business, but Tony barged in.
"This is what a colleague of mine told me. He once worked at the Art Institute of Chicago for a period of time. He saw a replica of a statue of Ares in Chicago. He didn't take it seriously at first, but the statue was lost because of it.
Come to think of it. Because the Louvre has never exhibited that statue, no outsiders have seen that statue except the insiders of the Louvre."
A statue that had never been seen by outsiders actually appeared on the other side of the ocean in Chicago. No wonder Diana was suspicious of Chicago.
"Did you find out what it was?" Kai asked. With Diana's ability, she probably looked through the entire Art Institute of Chicago on the day she arrived in Chicago.
"No." Diana said frustratedly.
"Have you checked the files?" Kai asked, following his own train of thought.
"Archives?" Diana looked at Kai.
"Yes, if the Art Institute of Chicago really copied that statue, then it would definitely leave a file. As long as you can look through the file, there is a high probability that you will find some clues." Kai said.
Diana's eyes lit up and she immediately said: "I'll go right away!"
After saying that, he asked Kai to send her back to the museum. Kai had no choice but to do so. He could understand Diana's urgency. After all, it was Ares. If this guy really ran out, it would be an absolute disaster.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It’s just that Diana left so fast that Kai didn’t even have time to ask her if she knew where the file was...
Even more coincidentally, just as Diana was about to rush, Dean called.
bad news.
Vampires are laying siege to his manor...
Farke!
Are these vampires crazy?
Kai didn’t even understand, how could these vampire bastards have the guts to besiege his house? Among other things, Kai was a policeman after all! According to the style of these vampires, they rarely attacked someone who would attract high attention.
The goal.
But now, there was no point thinking about it. Kai immediately turned the car around and headed towards his home.
…
On the other side, Kai's manor has turned into a battlefield at this time. A group of heavily armed men in black are besieging Kai's main house. In the house, in addition to Dean and the others, there is also a group of unknown demon hunters.
.
If Kai's home was besieged, it was because of this group of people.
Bobby was not responsible for notifying the witchers in the city before, asking them to act with caution. As a result, a group of witchers discovered a vampire lair a step too late. During this period, before the massacre occurred in the witcher bar, Chicago and
The surrounding cities have become hunting grounds for witchers. For many witchers, they have never seen so many vampires in their lives. So many witchers who are used to being alone began to form groups and hunt vampires in groups.
The results were remarkable.
In this case, when a vampire nest is found, he will naturally not let it go, so he calls his friends and plans to take action.
After suffering some casualties, the nest was finally destroyed, but they also got into trouble. They were noticed by the mysterious vampire army.
They had no choice but to ask for help, and it happened that their location was relatively close to Kai's home. So brothers Bobby and Dean immediately ran out to support and covered them as they retreated into Kai's house. Those vampires had just witnessed the demon hunters attacking their own people.
Naturally, you cannot give up easily on what you have done.
"You are raised by female cousins! Come on! Come on! Son of the beach!"
A demon hunter was covered in scars, but he still leaned against the window and kept shooting outside. It seemed that he had lost his calmness, but thinking about their previous encounters, you can understand why he was so crazy.
In order to encircle and suppress the lair, a total of thirty-six demon hunters were dispatched. During the encirclement and suppression, they sacrificed eight people. This is nothing, the demon hunters are used to life and death, not to mention, they are in
He who died while encircling and suppressing vampires deserved his death.
But after that, the nightmare began. Those mysterious vampire troops suddenly appeared, like hunting turkeys, killing their companions one after another. When they received support from Dean and the others, they retreated to the house.
There are only five people left!
Demon hunters are indeed lonely, but that doesn't mean they have no feelings. Seeing so many of their companions being killed without the ability to resist, how can the remaining demon hunters keep calm.
