Chapter 68: Let's Dance

"You're beautiful today."

Pepper was taken aback, today was the first time she had appeared in public dressed like this, as Tony Stark's secretary, she had always dressed as a standard urban beauty to make sure she was a working woman.

However, for some reason, she suddenly wanted to dress like this, her appearance was not bad, even outstanding, otherwise she would not have won the favor of Tony Stark, the famous playboy.

But for some reason, that playboy would rather sleep with those cover girls, bus-like women, than look at her a few more times.

Pepper is very unconvinced, at least she thinks so, as a woman, every day for you to deal with all kinds of things you don't want to deal with, and even every morning to help you get rid of the woman you slept with last night?

Why doesn't her boss mean anything to her?

Could it be that she is not attractive? She was a little skeptical, so on her birthday yesterday, Pepper gritted her teeth and bought a dress that could be called extremely sexy, and the bold design of this dress made her blush a little even when she saw it herself.

"Oh, hey, you, why are you here?"

Pepper turned around, only to find a person she wanted to see standing in front of her, but for some reason, she was a little scared, and even though she wanted to see him before, she hoped that he would not be here.

"What? Isn't this Tony Stark's Charity Foundation Dinner? I'm the host of this party, so why can't I be here? ”

Tony looked at Pepper in full costume, who was shrewd and capable in the past, but now looked as shy as a little girl, flustered and overwhelmed, not even knowing where to put her hands.

"Why didn't I notice she was so beautiful before?"

Tony struggled to recall, it seems, he valued this in the first place to let her be his personal assistant?

"Oh, yes, yes, it's your charity gala."

Pepper smiled awkwardly, not knowing what she was talking about.

"Do you want to do a dance?"

Tony stretched out his hand, it didn't matter if he didn't notice it before, just make up for it now.

"Oh no, no, it's all colleagues here, I'm dressed like this, and I'm dancing with my boss, oh my God."

Although she kept refusing, Pepper, who was still led off the field by Tony, finally put her hand on Tony's shoulder helplessly, but she only felt that her face quickly warmed up, and soon became hot and hot, like a roasted duck.

"Oh my God, I can't believe it."

"What's wrong? It's just a dance. Isn't it a terrible thing to dance with me? ”

Tony looked at her amusedly, knowing that women who wanted to dance with him could get from here to Hollywood, and she looked panicked, like a frightened fawn.

"No, I'm just, just dancing with my boss in front of my colleagues, and I'm a little uncomfortable."

Pepper felt a little out of breath and took a few deep breaths, barely keeping up with the dance without stepping on Tony's feet.

"Then it looks like I'm going to fire you, so you'll feel better!"

Pepper looked at Tony and smiled, and the awkward atmosphere eased a lot.

"I don't believe you'd do that, without me, you'd have a problem tying your shoes."

"I think it's going to be about a week to learn."

The corners of Tony's mouth turned up, and there was a smile in his eyes.

"Oh, is it? Do you remember what your Social Security account number is? ”

Pepper obviously didn't want to give Tony this face, and asked directly.

"Uh."

Tony feigned a thought.

“5。 Well, there's a 5. ”

Pepper's mouth was wide open, and he couldn't hide his smile.

"Wow, there's a five, but what about the remaining eight?"

"Then it's up to you."

The two laughed inadvertently, and an invisible tacit understanding permeated between the two, accompanied by melodious dance music, the two gently hugged each other, swaying with the rhythm.

"Want to go out and get some fresh air?"

Tony said at the right time.

"Oh well, I just need some fresh air."

Pepper quickly replied, the atmosphere was too strange, and the two walked together towards the outside of the hall.

...

After a while, Tony walked in with a smile on his face and walked straight towards the bar, looking like a weasel that had stolen a chicken, and Wang Hao watched from afar.

"Then, next, it's time to bring the superhero Iron Man to his debut."

Tony, who was asking for a drink at the bar, suddenly noticed a pretty female reporter walking towards him, and his slightly familiar face made him startled, and he quickly turned his head, but obviously it was useless, and people came for him.

"You seem to be very open tonight? Don't feel like seeing me anymore? ”

"Panic, I'm panicking."

The romantic debt he owes has to be paid off on his knees, Tony grinned, and his expression was extremely entangled.

Of course, he remembered the female reporter, the last woman he slept with before he was kidnapped, and he remembered her hotness that night.

"Is it because I pointed out that your company was involved in that recent atrocity?"

"You know, I was just invited, and I don't know about these things."

Tony finds that things don't seem to be simple, and the woman seems to have another purpose.

"I really believed you at the beginning, this is what you call responsibility?"

Christine's expression was furious, and she pulled out a stack of photos from her pouch.

"This town is called Gumila, have you ever heard of it?"

Tony's heart suddenly turned to the photo in his hand, only to see that in a dilapidated land, in the middle of several houses that had been bombarded by artillery fire and only a ruin, terrorists with advanced weapons were pointing guns at civilians and gathering them together.

And the next photo, even more shocking, is the piles of corpses sitting there, while the terrorists next to them are laughing wildly.

In the next photo, a familiar object appears in Tony's eyes, which is why he was kidnapped, why he traveled to the Middle East, and why he announced that he would close the weapons manufacturing department.

"Jericho missiles."

This is his latest surface-to-surface missile, which was originally designed to equip the US military with the increasingly grim situation in the Middle East and to strike at terrorists who treat human life as a mustard.

But now, the weapons that represent the high-end force of the United States and the excellent achievements of Stark Industries have appeared in the hands of terrorists who should have been their targets.

"What was this filmed?"

"Yesterday."

"I didn't approve any deals."

With a gloomy face, Tony defended Christine, perhaps, to himself? This is his friend, Ethan's hometown, he promised him to take him back there, but now, his hometown is threatened because of the weapons he developed?

"But your company did."

"My company doesn't represent me."

Looking at Obadi in front of him, Tony took the photo in his hand in front of him and asked with a glimmer of hope.

"Do you know these things? Have you seen these photos? What the hell is going on with Gumila? ”

Obadi looked at the picture in Tony's hand, and at the moment he only had one thing to say to the leader of the mentally handicapped Ten Rings gang that had cheated him.

"You Ma Maipi, labor and management asked you to kill this troublemaker, you don't kill it, now run back and harm me!"
