Black Widow Must Honor Her Contract Too
Li Chen was no stranger to Agent Hill.
Because he used to really enjoy watching an American sitcom called "How I Met Your Mother".
Agent Hill has the same face as the beautiful reporter Robin in the movie.
She was a truly independent woman, a very likable character who left a deep impression on Li Chen.
"Who are you?"
Li Chen looked at her warily. "So, you're the one who's trying to steal my Natalie away?"
"No, no, no, we won't take her away."
Maria Hill looked closely and realized that Li Chen did indeed have feelings for Natasha.
"I just want to confirm whether you have the ability to protect her."
Hearing this, Li Chen sat down opposite them.
Natasha then got up and brought over a few drinks, just like she used to do at the company.
And what was placed in front of Li Chen was a cup of tea.
This made Li Chen chuckle to himself; indeed, the real essence lay in the routine.
However, he remained outwardly calm. "What do you mean?"
"First, let me introduce myself. My name is Maria Hill."
Agent Hill smiled and said, "We at S.H.I.E.L.D.. handle supernatural events and global crises. The reason we contacted you is because of Saitama's appearance."
"If I'm not mistaken, that's a real Bumblebee, right?"
She looked out the window at the Bumblebee.
Li Chen didn't answer, but looked at Natasha: "So... it was all fake?"
His gaze was fixed on Black Widow, which made her waver slightly, and she had no choice but to say, "No, not entirely."
She then lowered her head, not daring to look at Li Chen again.
Li Chen gave her the impression that everything was wrong, that she was a terrible woman...
This is the effect Li Chen wanted to achieve: only if Natasha felt guilty would she obediently listen to him in the future.
Then, Li Chen deliberately became cold and looked at Maria Hill: "What do you want to do?"
Maria Hill said, "I hope we can work together, Mr. Lee."
"Now that you know Natasha's identity, she also longs for retirement, but retirement for a secret agent isn't so easy."
"They must remain anonymous, otherwise they are easily attacked by their enemies."
"And as her family member, you will also face retaliation."
This is the dilemma faced by secret agents.
They did too many shameful things, and it was dark, bloody, and they had countless enemies.
Seeing that Li Chen remained silent, Maria Hill continued, "Our S.H.I.E.L.D.. can provide you with a safe place and protection."
"I don't need it."
Li Chen said decisively.
"Of course, after all, you have Saitama protecting you."
Maria Hill smiled.
She tucked a strand of her short hair behind her ear and looked intently at Li Chen: "Mr. Li, as you know, this world is becoming increasingly dangerous."
"If a global crisis were to occur, even with Saitama protecting you, you might be safe, but what about everyone else?"
"Humans are social creatures; no one is truly alone. Therefore, we can work together to protect the safety of our planet."
"We have a plan: to gather the World's Strongest heroes."
She briefly explained the Avengers Initiative.
Li Chen understood; it turned out she wanted to invite Saitama to join the Avengers Initiative.
He shook his head and said, "He won't join you, but if the world is truly in danger, he won't stand idly by."
Maria Hill, somewhat disappointed, could only reply, "That would be even better."
"But what about you, Mr. Li?"
She looked at Li Chen with great interest. "I don't believe you're an ordinary person."
Li Chen is too mysterious; even Black Widow, who has been infiltrating for so long, hasn't been able to figure out his secrets.
He's like a mysterious black hole, producing something new every now and then.
And it's still that ultimate question.
Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
The fact that all the works Li Chen invested in and produced now have prototypes confirms to Maria Hill that Li Chen is no ordinary person.
But Li Chen just looked at her coldly. "I don't trust you women anymore."
This made Black Widow look up at him, but when she saw Li Chen's cold gaze, she immediately felt a chill.
Maria Hill knew that negotiations were no longer possible under these circumstances.
She hadn't expected the Black Widow agent to be so alluring...
This is because she lacks experience and can't tell who the prey is and who the hunter is.
But she became increasingly curious about Li Chen and couldn't help but want to explore him further.
Perhaps this is also why Black Widow agent was captured.
Who doesn't love exploring the mysterious?
Then, Maria Hill suppressed her curiosity, stood up, and said, "In that case, let's leave it at that."
She extended her hand, and Li Chen stood up and shook her hand.
For some inexplicable reason, Maria Hill tickled his palm.
Li Chen glanced at her in surprise, but Agent Hill said seriously, "We can keep in touch often in the future."
To this, Li Chen almost blurted out three words.
'Hello...'
He released Maria Hill's hand without saying a word.
He simply watched as Maria Hill prepared to leave.
But just as Natasha Romanoff walked to the side, he suddenly grabbed her wrist. "Black Widow Agent."
Upon hearing this address, Natasha's heart skipped a beat, and she felt an intense pain.
It was as if Li Chen was distancing himself from her.
"What's wrong?"
She could only force herself to remain calm as she looked at Li Chen.
But unlike his usual tenderness, Li Chen was now only indifferent.
Our contract is not over yet.
Li Chen said, "You are the female lead in 'Lucy,' so you must fulfill your contract."
Natasha replied, "We can change players."
"No, does S.H.I.E.L.D.. have no sense of contractual obligation?"
Li Chen looked at Maria Hill.
Maria Hill was about to say that it was Natalie signed it, and that it had nothing to do with Natasha...
After all, a pseudonym was used.
This is a common tactic used by secret agents.
However, considering she wanted to maintain her relationship with Li Chen, Black Widow was clearly a good choice; otherwise, she would have offered herself up for him.
Of course not.
Maria Hill stated, "Black Widow agents will honor their contract."
Natasha was helpless; she hadn't expected that even after revealing her true feelings, she would still be making a movie.
But the thought of her identity being revealed gave her a strange feeling.
It feels like my whole body is uncomfortable.
Seeing Li Chen's cold gaze and businesslike expression again, she felt a pang of heartache.
Although she had never experienced it before, she knew that this was love.
Li Chen released her hand, watched the two beauties leave, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he's seen a lot in Hollywood and has some acting skills.
It shouldn't be a big problem.
Maria Hill, standing outside the window, was indeed very curious about Bumblebee; she even went over to take a look.
"Bumblebee?"
She called out, but received no response.
Is this actually Transformers?
