Chapter 140：

The invisible Aurora broke through the clouds and hovered above Tony's sea view villa. Li Xu came out of the spaceship with a flushed Susan in his arms.

Don't get me wrong, Susan became like this entirely because the stories he told were too passionate, not because he took advantage of the situation to make moves.

As he walked into the villa with his arms around Susan, who was weak, Li Xu found that something seemed wrong.

In the villa, Tony and Pepper embraced and kissed passionately, completely ignoring the many corpses on the ground.

Having just experienced the hardships of life and death, the two of them were very emotional and kissed so deeply that they didn't even notice that Li Xu came in.

Seeing that Tony's actions were gradually going too far, Li Xu secretly thought that the world was getting worse, and coughed heavily.

Pepper woke up suddenly, seeing Li Xu and Susan who were watching, her cheeks flushed, and she quickly jumped out of Tony's arms.

"Captain..."

Looking at Li Xu's delicate eyes, Tony felt a little embarrassed, stood up and changed the subject, "Thank you for your help this time, how about we celebrate together?"

"You have a big heart!"

Li Xu rolled his eyes and said speechlessly: "You don't care about that guy Obadia Stan?"

"I'll find him myself."

Thinking of the thrill just now, Tony clenched his fists.

"Then you still have time for this?"

Li Xu looked contemptuously.

He deliberately let Obadiah Stan go just now, just to leave it to Tony to solve it by himself.

I didn't expect this guy to be so depraved...

"Obadia took all the Ark reactors, and before a new energy core was made, the steel armor was just a piece of scrap iron."

Tony shrugged helplessly.

He really wasn't justifying, but after this crisis, the relationship between him and Pepper had a developmental breakthrough, and he couldn't help it for a while.

Seeing that Li Xu still wanted to take the opportunity to ridicule, Tony pulled him aside and said in a low voice: "Head, I will remember this kindness in my heart. I know a special club, the service there..."

"shut up!"

Li Xu looked upright, and glanced at Susan who was not far away: "I'm not that kind of person, don't speculate on me with your dirty thoughts."

"..."

Tony's eyes are subtle.

We have been wandering together for so long, it is meaningless to say this now.

However, seeing Susan with blond hair and blue eyes, Tony immediately reacted and secretly contacted with the spiritual connection of a Jedi Knight: "Captain, are you really not going?"

"What do you say?"

"Understood."

Tony nodded knowingly, raised his eyebrows at Li Xu: "Make an appointment, let's go together."

"..."

"Let's go, in order to celebrate Tony and Pepper's life-and-death crisis, let's find a place to celebrate..."

After the negotiation was settled, Li Xu and Tony came over with shoulder to shoulder.

"???"

Susan and Pepper looked at each other with blank expressions.

Is this a man's friendship?

You were still arguing one second, but you can reconcile in the next?

…

"Tony Stark!"

At the same time, in a hidden safe house, Obadiah Stan, who had fled in a hurry before, was walking around anxiously.

Tony Stark is extremely talented, and his father, Howard Stark, has many contacts in the military and business circles. It’s okay if he dies. As long as he is willing to sell the benefits, he may not be able to control Stark. gram group.

However, if he is not dead, the military and those business leaders will definitely not choose to support him.

"I still have a chance, I still have a chance!"

Obadiah Stan's eyes are red, like a red-eyed gambler who is about to lose.

He has worked for the Stark Group for more than 40 years, and he is not reconciled, not reconciled to giving up the foundation that he has worked so hard for half his life.

"There is still one week left, as long as Tony Stark is killed within a week, the Stark Group will still be mine."

Obadiah Stan's face was grim.

With his previous promise and the Ark reactor technology in his hands, those big figures who covet Stark Group assets and steel armor can delay him for a week, and no law enforcement agencies will want him within a week.

If Tony Stark could be killed within this period of time, he could still stand up.

"I can definitely win!"

Obadiah Stan kept muttering to himself, took out his encrypted phone and made a video call.

"Obadia, what else do you want from me?"

An old man with retro clothes and braids on the back of his head appeared on the screen of the mobile phone. The old man sat on a throne, gently turning the ring in his hand, and talking casually.

"Mandarin, our cooperation can continue."

Thinking of all the old man's rumors, Obadiah Stan's eyes flickered slightly: "As long as you help me kill Tony Stark, the Stark Group's weapons can be chosen by the Ten Rings Gang, and the supply is unlimited."

"Oh?"

The Mandarin leaned forward slightly, fixed his eyes on Obadia, and showed an evil smile: "My friend, it seems that you have encountered a lot of trouble...".

Chapter 181

The Mandarin, aka The Mandarin!

In the comic version of Marvel, it is Iron Man's number one mortal enemy.

Its representative feature is ten rings with magic power on the hand. These magic rings can control gravity, material reorganization, fire explosion, laser beam emission, lightning storm, vortex, cutting beam, ice storm, black body ray and spiritual growth respectively.

Relying on the power of the ten rings, Mandarin established the Ten Rings Gang, a terrorist organization in the Middle East, and controlled a considerable part of the area with tyrannical means.

But as a terrorist organization, the weapons of the Ten Rings Gang are very backward, and they can only hang out in the Middle East.

Of course the ambitious Mandarin will not be satisfied with this.

Therefore, hearing the attractive conditions proposed by Obadiah Stan, the two immediately hit it off and determined a specific cooperation plan.

Through Obadia's private channel, Mandarin will lead some of his men to come to New York in person to help Obadia kill Iron Man.

As the price of friendship, in addition to unlimited supply of Stark Group weapons, Obadia Stan also needs to share technical information on steel armor.

"no problem!"

The desperate Obadiah Stan is now 13 a red-eyed gambler, agreeing to these reasonable or unreasonable demands without hesitation.

"Pleasant cooperation, my friend."

"We'll see you in New York."

Mandarin squinted and smiled slyly.

…

Tony and Li Xu knew nothing about Obadia's new conspiracy.

To be precise, Tony really didn't know, and Li Xu didn't care if he knew.

At this time, they were having dinner at a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown to celebrate the escape of Tony and Pepper, and broke through the window paper in the adversity to formalize their relationship.

"cheers!"

The four raised their glasses to each other and chatted while sitting in their seats.

Of course, it was mainly the two ladies, Susan and Pepper, who chatted.

But as they chatted, the topics of the two women gradually shifted, from clothing matching and skin care to men's flirtatious issues.

"Susan, Li is a good man. But you must watch carefully, otherwise if you are seduced by a vixen outside, maybe he will become like Tony."

Pepper glanced at Tony and snorted softly.

As Tony's personal secretary, she is very clear about Tony's private life.

Now that she has achieved a positive result, of course she will not let it go.

"what??"

Tony lying on the gun looked confused.

What's going on, why did we talk about this topic.

"Uh-huh."

Susan nodded straight.

"No, why only talk about me."

Tony is dissatisfied with being treated as a negative example.

Especially after seeing Li Xu's irrelevant smile, he became even more dissatisfied.

"Because you are obscene, and the style of a **** is simply disgusting!"

Li Xu looked upright, and looked at Tony with threatening eyes: "If you dare to speak ill of me, you will die."

"..."

Tony understood what Li Xu meant, and lowered his head with a dark face.

"Li, I know that you Asian men are very loyal to your partners. I hope you can help restrain Tony in the future."

Pepper raised his glass.

"No problem, I hate playboys the most!"

Li Xu glanced at Susan next to him, made a gesture of a gentleman, and cast a critical look at the negative textbook Tony.

"Shameless..."

Tony's face darkened even more.

That is to say, he couldn't beat Li Xu, otherwise there would definitely be a murder here today.

"I'm going to pay the bill!"

Tony stood up angrily and walked towards the cashier.

"Uncle, I overheard the words of those two beautiful sisters. Are you the scumbag that mother said?"

Beside the cash register, a little girl with twin ponytails pulled Tony's trouser leg and made a grimace.

"..."

The corner of Tony's mouth twitched slightly, pointing to Li Xu on the seat: "That's the real scumbag, I'm not."

"You are lying!"

The little girl bit her thumb: "That brother is so good-looking, he must not be a bad person."

Pooh!

The little girl's words stabbed two knives in Tony's heart.

Tony clutched his chest, his face darkened: "Bear boy, you have no eyesight at all, only a man like me has masculinity."

"I'm not a brat, you ugly uncle."

The little girl stuck out her tongue, made another grimace at Tony, and then ran out of the restaurant.

Boom!

At this moment, a violent roar suddenly sounded in the air, and the half door of the car swept through the air at an extremely fast speed, attacking the little girl at the door.
