I, Doomsday, stayed inside the Sun's core for a hundred thousand years! - Chapter 29

Chapter 29: Caught in the Act by little Pepper

Tony did not take Mr. Ethan home. Instead, he took him to the nearest safe place and left.

Tony had already attracted the attention of the nearby army, especially the air force, who was ready to intercept him as he approached New York.

However, they didn’t know that Lu Yuan was following Tony.

In order to not cause unnecessary trouble, Lu Yuan chose to take Tony with him and disappeared at the speed of light.

The entire world immediately lost track of Tony. No one knew that he had already returned to the basement of his home.

Tony took off his armor with the help of the mechanical arm. The armor was still in the early stages of development, so many areas still needed to be improved.

Therefore, every time he wore the battle suit, it would require a very difficult process. It was almost impossible to wear the armor without a robot arm.

Unless Lu Yuan was willing to help him.

“Hey, did you see what I did?” Tony still hadn’t calmed down. He was so excited that he showed off his actions to Lu Yuan.

But he found the wrong person. He could have chosen anyone else but Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan looked at Tony with a smile and sat down on his desk with a beer in his hand.

Recently, he had finished all of Tony’s wine collection.

There was nothing he could do about it. It was not like he could get drunk with his current physique, no matter how much he drank. After all, his strength was still there.

That was why he drank it all without even noticing.

Tony had once blankly stared at his wine cellar. His wine cellar was not ordinary. The price of those wines could buy this villa.

As a qualified playboy, how could he not have a sports car, a beautiful woman, and good wine?

However, as long as Lu Yuan continued to live here, he would definitely not be able to collect any good wine anymore.

It was better to just give him some beer; it wasn’t like he could get drunk, anyway.

“Should I agree or praise you?” Lu Yuan asked.

He could not move because only the armor on his feet was left, so he shrugged: “Alright, just think that I didn’t say anything.”

He recalled that this guy was not an ordinary person, but an alien and his real body was a huge monster.

Show off in front of him? Forget it. This guy already knows how to fly. He is even faster than when I am wearing a steel suit.

As soon as he thought of Lu Yuan’s heat rays, which could even cut open the mountain, Tony knew that he could not compare with him.

At least he was far from being comparable to Lu Yuan with the current level of technology.

Tony’s heart was a little itchy, as he was unable to show off. It was as if he was walking in brocade clothes at night, not happy.

He was not a superhero in the traditional sense. It was better to say that Tony would not grow into a qualified superhero before experiencing many things until a long time later.

Therefore, he was not the kind of person who did good deeds without leaving his name behind. He even hoped that what he did could be known by everyone, and he especially liked the feeling of being praised by others, surrounded by flowers and cheers.

Lu Yuan seemed to know what Tony was thinking, so he looked outside the laboratory, especially at the stairs leading upstairs, but did not say anything.

The next second, a figure came down the stairs. She opened the studio’s electronic door and saw Tony’s situation.

“Snap.”

A coffee cup shattered. Little Pepper in a white shirt and skirt stood there, staring at Tony in disbelief.

Tony also heard the voice and turned his head to look. He was a little helpless, but his face couldn’t hide his joy and excitement. He smiled at Little Pepper and spread his hands.

“Surprise, right?”

Little Pepper covered her mouth with one hand and pointed at the TV upstairs with the other. “Oh my God, Tony? Don’t tell me that tin man on TV is you?”

Tony didn’t seem to have any intention of hiding it. Not to mention the fact that Little Pepper had already seen him take off his steel armor. Now that she had already seen such a scene, was there any need to hide it?

Or could he make Little Pepper believe that he was not a tin man?

That’s why Tony simply agreed, “That’s me.”

“Oh my god, are you hurt?” Unexpectedly, the first thing Little Pepper did was to rush in front of Tony. She even raised her trembling hands to check Tony’s body. She was worried that he was injured.

Tony felt warm in his heart.

Although Tony looked like a frivolous young master on the surface, his heart was actually a little delicate and sensitive. There weren’t many people who could gain Tony’s trust. Moreover, this young man was indeed a rare genius and wise man. This made him even more arrogant.

It was actually very hard for Tony to acknowledge someone. Even if it was a genius in other fields, he would still look down on them.

Of course, he had also offended many people.

Meanwhile, Little Pepper was one of the few people who could get close to Tony and even make him trust her. She was also one of the few women that Tony could trust.

Lu Yuan looked at the two of them as they were whispering to each other. He could not help but bless them. This was also why he did not give birth to other thoughts, even though he felt that Little Pepper was beautiful.

The two of them had already developed feelings for each other, but they hadn’t been honest yet. They were only a paper-thin layer away, so why should he mess up?

“Jingle Bell.”

At this moment, the phone in Lu Yuan’s pocket rang.

Lu Yuan didn’t care that he was someone’s bodyguard, he made a silent gesture to the boss.

Tony rolled his eyes. This was his home. He was the boss, right?

But in the end, Tony still compromised and signaled Little Pepper to remain silent.

He had already guessed that it was Obadiah.

Sure enough, it was him. Lu Yuan picked up the phone and directly asked him in front of Tony: “Mr. Obadiah, have you thought about it?”

Obadiah’s voice came from the other side of the phone. “1 billion is too much.”

“Then forget it?” Lu Yuan was about to hang up the phone because he had to show a calm and unconcerned attitude right now.

Obadiah finally couldn’t maintain his calm. He held back his anger and asked, “Is the person on TV really Tony?”

“It can’t be me, can it? Do you think he’ll leave this equipment to me?” Lu Yuan directly criticized and pointed fingers at Tony right in front of him.

Tony opened his mouth, but he could not deny that he was indeed selfish.

He had never denied that he had some flaws in his personality.

But what about that?

He was arrogant and narcissistic. He thought highly of himself and even looked down on everyone, but he had the qualification to do so. Wasn’t that enough?

Of course, these so-called qualifications were useless in front of Lu Yuan.

That’s why he had always been humble in front of Lu Yuan. Even now, he had to listen to him, scolding him face to face. How could he even reason with him?

On the other hand, Little Pepper was dumbfounded.

Didn’t he say that he was Tony’s bodyguard?
