Paying Back Every Grudge

The three of them clung together as they returned to the house.

Everyone else had already returned to their rooms.

They didn't come out to watch the play.

Only 2B and A2 remained seated in the lobby.

Natasha and Yelena were startled when they entered.

Why haven't they made a sound?

Yelena complained.

She had found it strange before, that these two people didn't even need to eat.

Moreover, each one was more bizarre than the last. A2 was covered in stitches, looking as if it had been sewn together, unlike a human.

2B was wearing an eye patch the whole time, so it's unclear how she could see clearly.

Only Natasha's eyes widened; she had recently played the game with Crystal and naturally recognized her.

"2B?"

She asked, puzzled.

Li Chen nodded. "That's right."

Hello, human.

2B also spoke in a gentle voice.

Then, like a robot, she obediently sat on the sofa with her hands folded in her lap.

Okay, she was a robot to begin with.

Natasha grabbed Li Chen and asked, "Don't tell me you were born first, you idiot?"

"And this too."

Yelena couldn't understand, but she shared her sister's hatred and together they used their eyes to intimidate Li Chen.

But Li Chen wasn't intimidated by the pressure and nodded, saying, "You're right."

"Snort!"

Natasha had already guessed it.

She didn't know how Li Chen managed to bring the people and objects from the artwork out of the room.

No wonder he wanted to become the boss of a film and television company.

Suddenly, Natasha understood everything.

But she won't tell anyone this secret, especially not S.H.I.E.L.D..

Her support had already shifted towards Li Chen.

Yelena, completely bewildered, simply asked curiously, "2B... why is that?"

Because they are artificial humans.

Li Chen did not hide anything from Yelena.

"What?"

Yelena's eyes widened.

Then, she secretly glanced at 2B and A2; their posture was too perfect, even normal agents wouldn't sit like that.

Moreover, they don't get tired at all.

In addition, the stitches on A2's body make it look like it was sewn together, but if it's an artificial human, then everything makes sense.

Yelena looked at Li Chen, wondering how many secrets he still didn't know.

Li Chen then thoughtfully brought over a bottle of red wine.

The estate has a large collection of wines, although he doesn't drink them often.

Whether you drink it or not is not important; what's important is that you must have it.

Then, Li Chen filled the three glasses with wine in various ways, and let 2B and A2 go back to their room first.

They were waiting for Li Chen anyway, and they didn't need to rest.

Are you thirsty?

Li Chen placed the red wine in front of the two sisters.

Neither of the sisters stood on ceremony with him; they each picked up their glasses and took a sip.

Natasha began, "Yelena, tell me what happened after I left."

Hearing this, Yelena felt another surge of anger.

"How dare you ask?"

Upon hearing Yelena's words, Natasha firmly apologized. "It was my oversight. You can tell me now."

Yelena paused for a moment, then said, "After you left, Dreykov became extremely distrustful of the rest of us."

"For the past few years, he's been thinking about one thing: how to prevent something like what happened to you from happening again."

She glared at Natasha, making Natasha feel somewhat guilty.

This is probably what they mean by 'the predecessors cut down the trees, and the successors expose them to the scorching sun'.

"So what did he do?"

Natasha asked, her voice trembling slightly.

Yelena snorted coldly, her hatred for her lessening considerably; her main hatred still lay with Dreykov.

She believed that once her other sisters 'woke up,' they would share the same thoughts as her.

"He's put us all under mind control and planted a miniature bomb in the back of our necks. If we lose control, it'll blow our heads off. Are you satisfied now?"

Yelena's clenched teeth made Natasha feel very guilty.

However, upon hearing Yelena's words, she still said, "This is not what I want."

"Of course, you just want freedom, but you've ruined everyone else's lives."

Yelena retorted sarcastically.

As a secret agent, who wouldn't want freedom?

The Red Room, in particular, was already perverted.

For example, the Red Room had a rule that when they slept at night, one of their hands would be handcuffed to the headboard to prevent them from escaping or causing trouble.

Over time, the Black Widows got used to sleeping like this, and they couldn't sleep soundly if the handcuffs weren't on at night.

For them, freedom is an extremely luxurious thing.

Natasha paused for a moment, then said, "I will handle this. I will avenge everyone."

Natasha had already given up on getting involved in the Red Room affair.

But Yelena's appearance made her realize that this matter was not over.

She wasn't capable of fighting the Red Room before, after all, she was just a secret agent.

But things are different now; she has a team and helpers.

Li Chen put his arm around them and said, "Don't worry, I'll help you too."

"Let's drink first."

Upon hearing this, the two women took another sip.

Natasha seemed genuinely remorseful, so she began to drown her sorrows in alcohol.

Why are you helping us?

Yelena then looked at Li Chen and asked.

"It's very simple."

Li Chen said, "You're my people now, of course I'll help you."

Most importantly, Dreykov started the trouble. Li Chen is a good person in every way, except that he holds grudges.

In the past, when playing League of Legends, if anyone ganked him once, he would relentlessly target that person afterward. Now it's even more so; he's extremely vengeful.

Dreykov has already provoked us; if we don't retaliate, wouldn't we look too easy to mess with?

That's how the China are; they take revenge without delay.

Of course, if the difference in strength is too great, then one can take revenge in due time; it's never too late.

In short, revenge is a must.

But Li Chen's words didn't move the two women; instead, they both punched him lightly.

Li Chen didn't mind. After they had drunk enough, he led them upstairs.

Of course, Li Chen didn't go too far; he first escorted Yelena to a guest room.

Ram and Rem had already tidied up the place.

The sisters would clean even rooms that were unoccupied.

With the help of 2B and A2, things are a bit easier now.

Although 2B and her ilk are combat-type robots, they also possess service capabilities.

It's just more geared towards combat.

Yelena looked at Natasha, who was still being held by Li Chen, and she had a premonition of what was going to happen.

"Don't go too far."

She was merely offering a reminder.

"None of your business?"

Natasha replied with a single sentence and closed the door.

Yelena looked at the closed door, feeling a sense of unease.

For secret agents, this amount of alcohol is nothing; at most, it might make them a little thirsty.

She felt a little thirsty just thinking about the business Natasha and Li Chen were undertaking.

So, she threw her Super Suit aside and went straight to the bathroom.

Even in the bathroom, it felt as if you could hear Natasha singing.
