"Why did you bring me here?"

Delos was a little unaccustomed to fiddling with the expensive suit on his body, and complained to Lex who was also wearing an expensive suit on the side with some dissatisfaction:

"And you're going to wear these things that feel inconvenient?"

Lex snorted, ignoring Delos's complaints, and took a sip of a special wine glass with champagne: "This is a reception at the Metropolitan Museum, it's a formal occasion, everyone has to wear formal clothes, you won't be allowed to come in if you don't wear formal clothes." ”

As he spoke, Lex gestured to the dozens of men and women in suits and dresses walking around the museum, looking like you hadn't seen a big scene.

"So you still think of me as a rookie."

Delos, who was a little depressed in his heart, couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Yes, I know. But does that have anything to do with me setting up a business? ”

Hearing this, Lex shook his head and said helplessly: "Although it is said that a company or something can be established as long as you have money, you won't forget that you are still a year and a half away from reaching the age of eighteen, right?" U.S. law does not allow minors to be directors of corporations. ”

Without waiting for Delos to speak, Lex continued, "But no matter what, as long as you want to build a business, you have to communicate with the tycoons of other companies, whether it is gossip or technology exchanges, you will always encounter this kind of thing. You must know that to become a character like me, no matter how you talk about it, you have to pass it. There are a few high-level people from small businesses who are okay here today, and you can talk to them as a workout. ”

In the end, Lex added a few words: "You don't have to worry that they will ignore you directly, after all, you followed me in, and these little people have to give me some face." ”

With that, Lex walked away with an expression that looked like 'I wish you well' but actually said 'I'll see you laugh'. Leaving a depressed Delos in place to secretly scold him for being unkind.

In fact, this kind of communication Delos had also done in his previous life, although it was not as good as Lex's performance, but it was definitely not bad. He didn't feel well, he just didn't like suits. As for the underage mentioned by Lex, it is also very easy to handle, as long as Delos controls the deformation of his skin, he can become a man of a different identity. But if you want to make things bigger and not be suspicious of others, you need the help of others. And the most convenient one to do this at the moment is Lex.

"Shouldn't I tell Lex about some of my abilities?"

Delos hesitated, not sure if Lex would be willing to accept that he had superpowers. He thought about it for a while, and finally decided to think about it for a while.

"Delos." At this moment, Delos suddenly heard someone calling him. He turned his head to look and saw Clarke, who was dressed in a suit and dress, looking around uncomfortably, and slowly walking over.

"Why are you here alone?" Delos couldn't help but wonder: "Aren't you going to accompany Chloe?" ”

"She said she was going to do some girlish things with other girls, and boys weren't allowed to enter."

Clark reluctantly pointed to the side, only to see Chloe chatting happily with Lanna, who was also wearing a more conservative dress. And Lanna's boyfriend Whitney, like Clark, retreated far away, sitting in a chair next to him looking around uncomfortably.

"It seems that we are all the same, and we don't like this kind of occasion very much." Delos looked at Clark next to him and pouted helplessly.

Clark shrugged his shoulders and smiled helplessly: "But Chloe is very happy today, so it's good." ”

"Wow~" Delos suddenly screamed, which made Clark a little embarrassed. Then the former approached Clark with a wicked smile on his face and asked, "Tell me honestly, how did you get along with my sister?" I thought you'd have a crush on Lanna for the rest of your life. ”

"Well...... Clark didn't know what was going on in his mind, his expression a little amused and a little tangled. It took him a while before he said, "It's a long story." ”

"Okay, okay, if you don't say it, you won't talk about it." Delos said a little boredly, seeing Clark's wonderful expression before, he thought he could dig up some of his sister's troubles. But the other party replied like this, which means that he doesn't want to say it.

At that moment, Clark looked at Delos, who seemed to want to say something to Dilos, but didn't know how to speak. After several struggles, he finally gritted his teeth and opened his mouth.

"Delos, there's something I want to ask you."

"What's the matter?" Delos looked at Clark with some confusion, and the latter's face was a little nervous, but he still said the words that came out of his mouth.

"That's right, thank you for saving my parents before. Also, I know something from my parents, about your superpowers. ”

"Ah......" Delos was a little surprised that Clark would ask, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Chloe told you?" ”

Clark shook his head, "Chloe didn't say it, even if I mentioned it to her, she didn't say it. She just asked me to come to you and say if you're willing to talk about it......"

Clark didn't finish his sentence, but Delos knew what he was trying to say.

Delos thought of some of the extraordinary things he had shown when he had rescued the Kent couple, and thought that Clark must have heard about it from his adoptive parents. At this point, Clark suspected that Delos was an alien like him.

This was exactly how Delos had reacted to Clarke's expectations.

Clark is not a mutant, nor an earthling, but from an alien planet. All of this makes Clark look different, but it also makes him feel a deep sense of loneliness. So Clarke's heart also longs to be no longer lonely, and wants to have a companion who knows him, even if this companion is not from an alien like himself.

At the beginning, Delos deliberately showed his abilities in front of the Kent couple, and also wanted to use them to reduce Clark's own vigilance and facilitate the relationship with the latter. After all, no matter how you look at it, being friends with someone with superpowers will more or less make Clark feel a sense of identity with the same kind of people.

If he got this kind of relationship, it would be very good for Delos. Whether it's taking blood, or whatever.

But when Clark and Chloe were together, Delos was embarrassed to continue to calculate Clark in this way. It is not a good behavior to calculate his brother-in-law in this way, and although Delos is not a good person, he is still relatively disciplined.

Seeing that Delos was a little silent, Clark couldn't help but be a little anxious, he directly leaned next to Dilos and whispered: "Actually, I also have superpowers, and I was bumped into by Chloe when I was using superpowers some time ago." She didn't react when she knew about it, obviously she was used to it......"

The implication is that it must be you, Delos, who uses this superpower in front of her all day long, causing her to get used to it. If you don't admit it, you're too uninteresting.

What Clark didn't expect was that the reason why Chloe looked like she was used to was entirely because Delos took the footage of the former using superpowers with a camera and made it into a disc for Chloe to watch N times. In addition, Chloe didn't want to be misunderstood by Clark, so she hid it.

Delos looked at Clarke, who looked anxious, with a strange face, and after thinking about it, he finally decided not to tell about the candid filming.
