191, dating (6th update)
Talk to Bruce Banner about working together, and everyone goes their separate ways.
Luo Xiu left alone in the elevator and "bumped into" Helen Zhao in the corridor on the first floor of Stark Building.
Although Helen Zhao appeared to be hurrying in from outside, her careful thinking still did not escape Luo Xiu's eyes, but Luo Xiu did not intend to poke this matter, he was not a man who did not understand the amorous feelings.
"Helen." Luo Xiu smiled and asked, "Have something to find Mr. Stark?" ”
"Repair?" Helen feigned surprise, "Dr. Banner's matter is taken care of?" ”
"That's pretty much it." Luo Xiu nodded, "Dr. Bruce Banner has decided to join the Avengers. ”
"That's good news." Helen said with a smile, awkwardly looking down and fiddling with the hem of her blouse.
The relationship between the two at this time is somewhat delicate, and they are directly promoted from colleagues to intimate partners under the mediation of Loki. But in fact, both of them are relatively slow-burning personalities, and they prefer a gradual old-fashioned relationship process when it comes to different friends.
Dr. Zhao did have a good impression of Luo Xiu for a long time, but she only planned to invite Luo Xiu out for a cup of coffee, have dinner, discuss the super soldier serum, and try to see if they could call each other after the Ice Corpse Virus incident - nothing else.
Luo Xiu's thoughts were roughly the same as Dr. Zhao's, after all, he had no experience in this area at all.
It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and Loki uses beauty tricks to catch ducks on the shelves.
The two formed an indissoluble bond in an abnormal state, and they both felt good about each other.
It's just that there was an ice corpse virus at that time, and all the absurd acts can be used as an excuse to "lose their minds", and now that the ice corpse virus has been removed, both of them have come to their senses, and neither Dr. Zhao nor Luo Xiu are as unrestrained and bold as they were at the beginning. Dr. Zhao didn't even dare to ask Luo Xiu for dinner, but only dared to direct and act in a clumsy "chance encounter" scene and forcibly accosted Luo Xiu.
Luo Xiu was even more at a loss, and he didn't know how to deal with it at all.
Originally, he was a novice rookie, but as soon as he came up, he encountered this kind of situation of driving first and then falling in love, and he didn't play cards according to the routine at all!
After pondering for a while, Luo Xiu was anxious: "I heard Mr. Stark say that there is a very good Chinese restaurant nearby, are you hungry, do you want to try it?" ”
"Yes, yes." Dr. Zhao hurriedly agreed, "I love Chinese food. ”
"Then let's go." Luo Xiu pointed to the door, and the two walked side by side into the street.
After the heavy snowfall, the weather was cold, and Dr. Zhao couldn't help but lean towards Luo Xiu's side, Luo Xiu also had a gentlemanly demeanor, and draped a luxury scarf that Stark picked for him on Dr. Zhao's shoulder.
Dr. Zhao was overjoyed in his heart, and tried to quietly hold Luo Xiu's hand several times, but unfortunately he didn't dare to act in the end, and obediently put his hand in the pocket of his windbreaker.
Luo Xiu only cared about hurrying with his head bored, and threw out a few life science-related topics from time to time, but Dr. Zhao saw the move, but he felt a little disappointed in his heart.
It wasn't until he came to the door of the Chinese restaurant introduced by Stark that Dr. Zhao's small loss turned into a big loss - the Chinese restaurant was not open at all.
Having just experienced the end of the world, where is the restaurant still in the mood to stay open? Most of the waiters in the entire Chinese restaurant have been transformed into ice corpses, and the boss has long since run away with his family.
"Embarrassing, why didn't you think of it?" Luo Xiu scratched the back of his head and said. Just now I was nervous and put my IQ in Stark Tower.
Dr. Zhao was equally embarrassed: "I am ...... too"
"Shall we do it...... Would you like to go back to my apartment for a quick bite to eat? I still have some food in the fridge to fill my stomach. Luo Xiu said helplessly, "Now there may be no restaurants in New York that are operating normally." ”
"Well, let's go back to the apartment." Dr. Zhao nodded.
So the two of them turned around and walked side by side to the apartment.
Surrounded by the speeding rescue team, ambulances, police cars, and the bodies of several victims in the distance, Luo Xiu took Dr. Zhao through the messy street, and actually felt a touch of romance.
As for Dr. Zhao, the question was repeated back and forth in her mind: When will this kid hold my hand? When will this kid hold my hand?
The question looped all the way to Luo Xiu's apartment, and Luo Xiu didn't take action from beginning to end.
Thankfully, Luo Xiu's apartment was not affected, and the ice corpses in New York did not rush to such a high floor, and if you didn't look out the window, at least the apartment was still a peaceful and prosperous scene.
Luo Xiu helped Dr. Zhao hang up his coat, then went to the refrigerator to get two sandwiches and a bottle of red wine from the wine shelf.
After pouring the wine to the brim, Luo Xiu and Dr. Zhao toasted each other.
"Celebrate the victory over the virus."
"Celebrate the victory over the virus."
The two took a sip and put down their glasses and fell silent face to face.
Before the atmosphere became awkward, Luo Xiu took the lead in speaking: "Thank you, Helen, if it weren't for your help, I would never have developed a virus antibody in such a short time, and without the virus antibody we can't win this battle, so ......"
"Do you still have antibodies there?"
Before Luo Xiu could finish speaking, Helen suddenly interrupted him abruptly.
"What?" Luo Xiu was stunned for a moment, and looked blankly at Helen Zhao, whose cheeks were flushed.
"I asked, do you still have a reserve of antibodies?" Helen's cheeks became more and more rosy, and she seemed to be drunk on the verge of getting drunk, "I'm worried that the ice corpse virus in my body has not been completely destroyed, you better inject me with antibodies again...... Do you have any antibodies? ”
Luo Xiu began to panic: "Yes...... There must be ......."
Helen Zhao put down her wine glass and climbed onto the sofa: "Then come on." ”
——————
After the antibody injection, the atmosphere between the two became less awkward, and Rohew began to compromise with the fate in front of him - he and Helen did not seem to be suitable for the traditional step-by-step relationship.
Helen lazily nestled in the sofa, pulled over the fluffy blanket and covered herself, while Luo Xiu poured herself a glass of red wine and drank it slowly.
"What are you going to do next? Studying that topaz? Helen asked curiously, the aftermath of the battle had clearly not yet passed.
"The Soul Gem is definitely an important research direction, but we still have to continue to find the whereabouts of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube." Luo Xiu said, "Fortunately, with the help of Professor Servig and Dr. Banner, the two of them should soon find the location of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube." ”
"So Earth is still very dangerous, and aliens will invade at any time?" Helen was keenly aware of Loki's intentions, "The Cosmic Cube can open a wormhole, which gives the alien army a chance to attack suddenly......"
"Yes." Luo Xiu nodded solemnly, "We must recover the Universe Rubik's Cube in time, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
"But......" Helen tilted her head and whispered, "didn't you always arrange for the Cosmic Cube team to replicate this energy source?" So where did the replica of the Cosmic Cube go? Did Loki steal the real Cosmic Rubik's Cube? ”
Luo Xiu smiled lightly and looked back at Helen with a curious face.
"Replicating super energy is not an easy task, and it is not that easy to achieve."
