I, Doomsday, Stayed Inside the Sun’s Core for a Hundred Thousand Years! - CH 34
Chapter 34: Both Obadiah and Little Pepper moved.
The exciting and grand ball continued. Many people, or perhaps all of them, who came here, did not know that this party was superficial. In fact, there was something else going on.
After talking to Lu Yuan for a while, Obadiah wandered around the area and deliberately created a sense of presence. Then, he took advantage of the opportunity to go to the bathroom and escaped.
He didn’t know that he was being closely watched by Tony the whole time.
“I’m leaving, too,” Little Pepper said, as she was about to leave.
However, Tony grabbed her hand because he saw that Lu Yuan was shaking his head.
Lu Yuan pointed at his ears.
Tony tacitly took out two earplugs from his pocket. These were radio earphones. One was for himself and the other was for Little Pepper.
Little Pepper dodged a little awkwardly. Tony was getting closer and closer to her.
In the next second, Lu Yuan’s voice came over. Tony didn’t understand what was going on, but he brought a glass of wine to his mouth. He didn’t know how Lu Yuan was doing this.
This was super ventriloquism. Superman often used this move to hide his identity. His body was in front of everyone, but his voice came from somewhere else.
At that time, Louise still didn’t know the identity of Superman, so she was often deceived.
Lu Yuan spoke on the radio, “Don’t worry, that old man is very alert. In fact, he still hasn’t left. He is just hiding in the surveillance room and watching us.”
Want to avoid Lu Yuan’s monitoring? That’s not possible.
Not to mention his super hearing that could track Obadiah’s every movement, Lu Yuan’s supervision had also evolved. Now, he could even see through lead.
Obadiah did not know that his every move was under Lu Yuan’s observation.
Obadiah was indeed very cautious. He had obviously reached this point, but he was still worried that Lu Yuan would leak his information to Tony immediately.
That was why he had been watching Lu Yuan and Tony’s every move for the last half an hour.
Lu Yuan didn’t stay away from Tony all the time. After Tony finished dancing with Little Pepper, he took the initiative to walk toward him.
Obadiah nervously watched as Lu Yuan said something to Tony. Both of them parted with a smile. Tony turned around and walked towards a celebrity not far away, while Lu Yuan extended his hand to invite Little Pepper to the dance floor again.
Suddenly, Obadiah’s cell phone rang. The rapid ringing surprised him.
It was Lu Yuan who was calling him. While Little Pepper was turning around, Lu Yuan quickly said, “I’ve delayed Tony. I’ll help him and Little Pepper create an opportunity later, but I’m afraid that I won’t be able to stall him for too long. You have to hurry up.”
Then he hung up the phone.
Suddenly, Little Pepper stopped dancing and stepped on his foot.
After a glance at Lu Yuan, Little Pepper knew that he was trying to trick Obadiah, but why did he have to involve her in this?
Lu Yuan did not care. Not to mention Little Pepper stepping on him. Even if he was hit by Earth, he would be fine.
So his expression did not change, and he spread his arms toward Little Pepper.
Little Pepper was stunned. What did this mean?
“Let’s not do the waltz or social dance. Don’t you see that Tony’s eyes are burning with anger? Let’s get something retro,” Lu Yuan said with a smile.
Little Pepper also noticed that although Tony was hugging a female celebrity, all of his attention was on the two of them. She couldn’t help but feel embarrassed, amused, and angry.
They don’t have a relationship yet, do they? She can get along with anyone, right?
Then Little Pepper saw that there was a business card in Lu Yuan’s hand.
She was very surprised.
“This is the number of someone from Homeland… Security Bureau. Anyway, their name is too long. You do not need to remember it. If you encounter any unexpected situation, you can call him, he can protect you.” The business card in Lu Yuan’s hand was actually Coulson’s business card, and Coulson represented S.H.I.E.L.D.
It was just that the current name of S.H.I.E.L.D. was too long that he even felt embarrassed.
It was not like he couldn’t remember it, but it was as troublesome as a tongue twister.
Lu Yuan continued to explain the things Little Pepper needed to pay attention to.
Then Little Pepper started to become worried. “Why are you so worried about me?”
It wasn’t that she had any other thoughts, but Little Pepper had noticed that Lu Yuan seemed to have predicted that she would encounter danger.
Lu Yuan smiled bitterly. “Big Sis. Didn’t I already tell you that Obadiah would soon show his real face? After he took the ark reactor, he wouldn’t be able to wait to activate Iron Monger. Although Tony and I will rush over as soon as possible, I am afraid that you will encounter some sort of danger. But don’t worry, I won’t let you die.”
The more he spoke, the more scared she was. Even her face turned pale.
At this moment, Tony brought his partner over and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Lu Yuan shook his head. He did not intend to dance with Little Pepper anymore, so he moved his hand and let her fall into Tony’s arms.
At the same time, he stretched out his hand and took the opportunity to embrace the beautiful female celebrity. Then he turned around and walked away gracefully.
Even Tony couldn’t help but whistle in response to these smooth movements.
Lu Yuan looked like a veteran playboy.
The female celebrity didn’t even realize that she had already changed her partner. She only exclaimed when she had walked far away, “Who are you?”
Lu Yuan shamelessly said, “A new billionaire. I have one billion in savings. Do you want to develop?”
The female celebrity first took a careful look at his appearance.
He was still very handsome, but his words were a little too infuriating, so she waved her hand and left.
She was not such a person.
Lu Yuan thoughtfully looked at the business card in his hand. Well, maybe he did have something to ‘do’ tonight.
Shaking his head, Lu Yuan came to a bar beside the dance floor and snapped his fingers to ask for a beer. Then he spoke on the radio, “Tony, Little Pepper, you can move now. The old fox has taken the bait.”
Tony took Little Pepper with him, and the two of them deliberately approached the door while dancing. Then Little Pepper quietly left while the others were not paying attention to them.
The good show was finally going to start.
At this moment, Obadiah was personally driving his car to Tony’s villa as fast as he could.
Little Pepper, on the other hand, had to wait on the side of the road for a while before she got into a cab to catch a ride to the Stark Industries.
Little Pepper didn’t drive her own car. Previously, Happy had driven her here. According to the normal procedure, he wouldn’t take her back until the party was over.
The reason she was in such a tragic situation was because it was difficult to get a taxi around here.
However, it shouldn’t delay anything.
At the party, Tony approached Lu Yuan and both of them sat next to each other. Tony did not drink anymore. Instead, he asked for a glass of water because he knew that tonight would not be peaceful. He was going to have a fierce battle.
“Do you think I can win?” Tony asked Lu Yuan worriedly.
Lu Yuan laughed. “He’s stupid. Why are you also being stupid? You have me with you, so what are you afraid of? After all, I’m still your bodyguard. Don’t worry.”
As soon as he said this, Tony was relieved.
