Tony was kicked out of Obadia's office in a gloomy way, but fortunately the office was so well soundproofed that no one knew about the bloody thing he was scolding.

And after he left, Obadiah began to call his cronies one by one, and began to woo, promise, and warn them to prevent them from being divided by Tony.

Then, after much hesitation, he finally dialed another number.

"Justin, I promise you terms. Something will be sent to you in a moment, remember your promise! ”

"Don't tell me how strong Tony is, if he's still an ordinary person, it's not your turn to trade with me!"

After hanging up the phone, he stared ahead with a gloomy face, muttering to himself: "The group should belong to me, and no one can take it away!" ”

Tony had no idea what Obadiah was doing, and only thought that his words had touched the sensitive nerves of the old man.

He went to his president's office again, and he decided to talk to Pepper first, and when Pepper was successful in martial arts, he could set an example for Obadiah.

Pushing the door open into the secretary's room, Pepper looked up to see him enter, just as surprised as Obadiah.

"Wow, it's really the sun coming out in the west today, who did I see in the company? It's actually my boss! Pepper looked surprised.

Tony handed over a flower that he had pinched down from the hallway, and said with a smile, "Your beloved boss saw that you worked so hard and decided to give you a salary increase and give you a vacation." ”

After Pepper reached out and took the flower, he casually threw it into the trash can and said with a sneer:

"Don't think I don't recognize it, it's a flower in the hallway. Don't trick me with the method of dealing with those little blue pools, I don't eat this set. Say, what work do you have to give me? Could it be that you made a woman's belly bigger? ”

"Don't say that, Pepper, it makes me feel like a scumbag." Tony smiled and gave Pepper a hug, "I'm telling you the truth, I'm going to put you on a three-month vacation." ”

"What? Taking a long vacation? Or three months? Pepper's face was skeptical, wondering what the hell Tony was up to.

Tony told Pepper what he had said to Obadiah again.

"Really? Didn't you want to find an excuse to get rid of me and replace me with a young and beautiful female secretary? Pepper stared at Tony with suspicion.

"Of course not. Pepper, you've done a great job all the time and saved me a lot of time. How could I be willing to replace you? ”

"Well, I accept your compliment. Normally, you don't really do that, but when you X-worm gets into your brain, I'm not sure. Pepper's eyes were still full of doubt.

Feeling wronged, Tony raised his hands in the air and complained helplessly, "Damn! Why don't you believe me when I tell the truth? ”

"You guys? Who else did you say that kind of thing to you? Pepper was even more incredulous.

"It's Obadiah!" Tony sat down on the couch in frustration and recounted what had just happened in Obadia's office.

"I really want you to have a healthier body, sincerely! The benefits of practicing the Ultimate Immeasurable Qigong are something that I have personally experienced, and there is no falsehood. But why do you always feel like I'm trying to take away your job? ”

"Uh......" Pepper was embarrassed for a moment, and said hesitantly, "Maybe it's an occupational disease?" In the workplace, there will always be a lot of open guns and hidden arrows, and not everyone can sit in the position of group president in their lifetime. ”

"We have come to this point because we have won the results after countless battles in the open and in the dark. But at the same time, it is also facing the challenges of countless latecomers, and it may lose all this at any time. ”

"So I am, and so does Obadiah."

Tony opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

This kind of experience of struggling from the bottom is too foreign to him, he has no experience at all, and he can't empathize.

"Well, I messed everything up again. Now Obadiah is throwing a tantrum in the office, and he won't believe my explanation. Maybe in his heart, I am a young lion who wants to usurp his power as a lion king. Maybe he'll scold me for being ungrateful, unloading the mill and killing the donkey. Tony slumped on the couch and muttered helplessly.

"Then prove to him with practical deeds that you don't mean that, that you still trust him, just like your father trusted him, and it hasn't changed in the slightest." Pepper sat down next to him and held his hand.

"That's why I'm here to let you go to the martial arts hall to learn martial arts first, and hand over the group's business to Obadia. Three months later, you come back as Superman and show it off in front of him, and he will know how much I care about his health. Tony grabbed Pepper's hand and said seriously.

After Pepper listened, her face changed, she withdrew her hand, got up and sat down behind her desk.

"So, I'm just a model, a model for display?"

"Hey, Pepper, what's your tantrum?" Tony immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, "I was going to let you all go to learn martial arts, but I went to find Uncle Obadiah first. ”

"The affairs of the group cannot be interrupted, so ......"

Pepper interrupted Tony's words with a blank face, "Okay, I know, after I hand over the work, I'll go to the martial arts hall to apprentice." You can now go and throw your party. ”

"Uh......" Tony opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain, and finally had to say: "I'm afraid you have to learn Chinese first, my master's rules, people who don't Chinese won't accept it." ”

"Okay, I see, is there anything else you want to order?" Pepper didn't even lift her head.

"Well, no."

"Goodbye."

Tony abruptly stood up and said goodbye, "Goodbye." ”

He walked to the door, stopped again, turned around and said, "I don't have a party tonight, do you have any arrangements for the night?" ”

"I didn't have it, but now I have."

"Oh well, then...... Good bye. ”

Tony walked out of the door in a low mood, looking at the bustling scene of traffic and people in front of the building, but he felt extremely lonely.

He is very diligent in changing women, but he really has no experience in this thing.

Tony's feelings for Pepper should be sex first and then love, and then slowly get used to the existence of the other party, and finally come to fruition.

And Pepper's feelings for Tony should be love first and then sex, and then disappointment, expectation, and disappointment again.

Everyone knows Tony's feelings for Pepper, Pepper naturally knows it, and Tony certainly knows it.

But they all have their own concerns.

Pepper has no confidence in Tony's emotional persistence.

And Tony is seriously insecure and very cautious about his feelings.

He didn't know what kind of affection Pepper had for him, and whether it was different from those models and actresses.

When everyone flatters him, he naturally can't tell who is true and who is false.

Love is a thing that always makes people suffer from gains and losses.

Someone as smart as Tony Stark can't escape.
