After spending the New Year in the warm environment of a beach villa in Los Angeles, Ling Xiao left for New York, where he met Pepper, her assistant Natalie Rushman, and her bodyguard Hogan at Stark Tower in Manhattan.

Tony Stark's performance at the birthday party was so disappointing, both Natasha and Hogan took Pepper's side.

Ling Xiao had been to Stark Malibu Beach Villa, but he only glanced at the periphery and found the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents hiding in the shadows, so he didn't teleport back directly.

Although Ling Xiao is not worried about the people in S.H.I.E.L.D. looking for trouble, there is no need to take the initiative to find trouble.

"Pepper, how's Mr. Stark?" Ling Xiao asked with some concern while massaging Pepper and relaxing his muscles.

"There's nothing to do for the time being, so it's good to let him suffer a little." There was some resentment in Pepper's words.

Ling Xiao shrugged his shoulders, what else could he say, continued to massage Pepper, and began to do skin care.

Half an hour later, Ling Xiao left Pepper to rest in the lounge, packed up his things and left the room.

Looking at Natasha standing outside the door, Ling Xiao nodded lightly at her and said, "Miss Potts will wake up in half an hour, don't let people in and disturb her during this time." ”

"Okay." Natasha nodded to Ling Xiao very politely, stood guard at the door, and didn't look at him again.

Ling Xiao knew what was going on with a roll of his eyes, since Tony Stark had already connected with S.H.I.E.L.D., he would naturally inform S.H.I.E.L.D. of his treatment method, and Black Widow was no longer interested in him, which was normal.

When she came to New York, Zhou Qian was particularly obsessed with him, this long-legged girl was very dissatisfied with Ling Xiao's New Year's Day, Ling Xiao had been with her in the apartment except for a trip to the building in the past three days.

On the day of the Hammer Industrial weapons display, Ling Xiao arrived at the scene early, but he came alone, and did not bring Zhou Qian, although it was very close to Flushing, but Ling Xiao still didn't let her come with him, knowing that something was going to happen, how could he bring a burden.

Of course Zhou Qian was unwilling, she shook Ling Xiao's arm vigorously, and began to not get up, for this headache, Ling Xiao's method was very simple, he pushed the person directly to the bed, and then pounced.

Thinking that it was Zhou Qian, who was still lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, Ling Xiao couldn't help but the corners of his mouth were slightly flushed.

"What do you think, Mr. Ling?" Parker looked at Ling Xiao, who was a little distracted, and couldn't help but remind him.

"Nothing!" Ling Xiao shook his head, looked at the Spider-Man he met by chance at the main venue of the expo, and asked with some curiosity, "Peter, how are you doing?" ”

"It's okay, I had a fight with my girlfriend some time ago, and I plan to ask her out tomorrow." Peter smiled a little happily, and he couldn't help but be unhappy, although the murderer of his uncle Ben, Flint Marco, had the ability to know like sand, but he was still killed by him rushing into the sewers, and he was about to get back together with his girlfriend Mary Jane, Peter had no reason to be unhappy.

"That's fine." Ling Xiao smiled and nodded, in fact, he has been paying attention to Parker's affairs, and he also has some understanding of recent things, although it is likely that the sandman will also be included in the list of gods and demons, but the ability of the sandman is too easy to target, just like Parker did, the water may melt the sandman, if you really want to fight, it is easy to get caught by someone.

Parker is a relatively simple person, although he has a good spider-like ability, but the real ability to maximize his ability is the spider launcher he invented, and the cooperation of the two sides has created the unique Spider-Man in this world.

Spider-Man is so eye-catching, and once he shows up somewhere else, it's easy to be targeted by others, especially those news outlets. Ling Xiao had never underestimated this, and when it came to the ability to cause trouble, even S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra were far behind.

"Miss Pepper is here, Peter, let's go, I'll introduce you to you. Maybe you'll have the opportunity to interview the CEO of Stark Industries. Ling Xiao pulled Peter and walked towards Pepper and the others who stepped out of the car.

Looking at Ling Xiao and Parker who came over, Natasha couldn't help frowning slightly, how did the two of them come together.

"Pepper, why just the three of you, Tony?" Ling Xiao glanced in the car and made sure that Stark didn't come with him.

"He is now staying in the Malibu villa to reflect on his mistakes, Ling, why haven't you gone in yet?" Pepper asked with a forced smile as she hid the worry on her face.

"I ran into a friend and we had a little more to talk to." As he spoke, Ling Xiao dragged Peter in front of him and introduced to Pepper: "This is Peter Parker, a reporter for Clarion Daily, he is the photographer in charge of Spider-Man, Peter, this is the top CEO of Stark Industries, Miss Potts." ”

"Hello, Miss Potts, it's an honor to meet you." Peter said seriously as he stretched out his hand.

"Hello, Mr. Parker." Pepper shook hands with Parker, then glanced at Ling Xiao and said, "Ling, let's go in together." ”

"Okay." Ling Xiao nodded, got out of the way, nodded to Natasha and Hogan, who stayed to watch the car, and then followed Pepper into the main hall.

Pepper gave them a position not at the front, but at the back, after all, this was Justin Hammer's weapons showcase, and if the top CEO of Stark Industries was found to be at the front, the media would have written about it.

Ling Xiao sat there, waiting for Justin Hammer to appear, this night will be very lively.

A rhythmic jazz sounded, and Justin Hammer appeared on the display with dance steps.

"He's learning from Tony." Ling Xiao whispered in Pepper's ear, "Although this person is a little shameless, the effect is still good. ”

"Well, Hammer Industries has been able to go from a low-level arms dealer to become the largest arms investment in the Department of Defense today, and Justin Hammer has contributed a lot, he has never been a simple person." Pepper whispered back as she looked at the display stand, the reason why she came back tonight was to see what kind of things Justin Hammer could come up with, and whether it would have an impact on Stark Industries.

"Welcome, ladies and gentlemen!" Justin Hammer, standing on the display stand, took the microphone and said to the many guests: "For a long time, this country has allowed brave soldiers to take risks, and then Iron Man appeared, and we thought that no one would lose their lives, but he refused to disclose advanced technology, which is not fair, not right, and too much of a pity, but that man is a great invention......"

"Mr. Hammer, if Hammer Industries had such an invention, would you disclose it to the public?" A voice sounded abruptly in the venue, and everyone looked around, but they didn't find this reporter who didn't know the rules of the press conference.

Only Pepper, Natasha and Parker, who were beside Ling Xiao, looked at him in surprise, although they didn't know how Ling Xiao made the sound just now, but this did not prevent them from distinguishing who made the voice just now.

Pepper couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Ling, what's wrong with you?" ”

"It's nothing, I'm just looking at Justin Hammer a little unpleasant." Thinking of that somewhat unpleasant meeting, Ling Xiao couldn't help but smile coldly in his heart, he was not a broad-minded person, and he naturally had the opportunity to take revenge on Justin Hammer.

In response to such a sudden question, the corners of Justin Hammer's mouth twitched slightly, and he continued: "Today, my media friends, you are in big trouble, and your ink will not be enough, gentlemen and ladies, I will introduce the new face of the American military, the Hammer Steel Soldiers......"
