Still Charming

Li Chen never expected that his meeting with his mother-in-law would take place under such circumstances.

However, he remained relaxed, as he was quite confident in himself.

There is no better son-in-law than him.

"Hello, Melina."

"Dear Li, you're amazing."

Melina and Li Chen shook hands.

Li Chen was also sizing up Melina, Melina looked to be in her forties and still quite attractive.

She looked like a young lady from an intellectual family, very cultured and well-mannered.

But it was precisely this spy outfit that made Melina look so out of place.

Moreover, because she is a secret agent, Melina doesn't have any children of her own, so she maintains a good figure.

Natasha and Yelena were both adopted by her, and she treated them no differently than her own children.

Thank you, Melina.

Li Chen squeezed briefly and then released his grip. Melina, without any hesitation, asked, "Li, what are your plans for the future?"

"There are at least several thousand Black Widows worldwide; this is not something an ordinary organization can handle."

It's not just about accommodating them, but also about giving them opportunities to do things so they can live a good life.

That's at least several thousand jobs.

After all, humans have self-awareness.

Natasha began, "Lee is a big shot in Hollywood."

Li Chen shook his head. "Hollywood has a lot of staff; a typical film crew has hundreds or even thousands of people."

"But their origins are hard to ascertain."

Of course, this is one approach.

If there's really no other way, let them go to the film crew to learn.

However, they might not be willing to do so.

Moreover, it's somewhat of a waste of talent.

They are all Black Widows, raised from the ashes; each one is exceptionally talented and should be engaged in more important matters.

Let's see what their personal wishes are first.

Li Chen said, "I'll arrange for you to join the Hellfire Club first. You can use the club's resources to find them and then ask them what they want to do."

"We fully respect individual wishes. Those who want to continue being secret agents can continue, and those who want to return to a normal life can also be accommodated."

Li Chen's words filled the nearby Black Widows with immense gratitude, and they all kept their eyes fixed on Li Chen.

What's it like to be stared at by so many beautiful women? Li Chen felt like he was about to fly.

I must say, the aesthetics of the Red Room are truly remarkable.

Every Black Widow is at least reasonably good-looking; with a little makeup and on short videos, she looks like a fairy.

Among them, the beautiful ones are particularly distinctive, for example, they have large mouths, captivating eyes, and other large features...

Everything you could want.

That old bastard Dreykov is utterly wasting talent.

Such an excellent Black Widow shouldn't be given to someone else.

"Of course, this applies to everyone here. You can consider it; if you don't want to be secret agents anymore, I can even make you stars."

Li Chen's words excited the Black Widows.

They actually have the chance to become stars?

What woman doesn't love being the center of attention?

Believe it or not, some people are actually interested.

However, this was only a minority view. Michelle immediately retorted, "I can't do anything but kill. I can't do anything else."

These words jolted many people awake.

Although they possess other abilities, they have never lived independently. If they leave the organization... can they handle it?

With that in mind, the Black Widows ' enthusiasm waned.

Most of them still want to continue being secret agents; after all, they're used to it.

Habits are the most terrible thing in the world.

They simply can't do anything else right now.

Thank you, Li.

Melina also said, "But I don't think I can do anything else."

Li Chen picked Yelena up as well. "Then you and Yelena can continue managing them together."

"Yelena?"

Melina was shocked by what she saw.

Yelena obediently nestled into Li Chen's arms, and the two sisters, who had been at odds, became very harmonious at this moment.

This shocked Melina, and she found it somewhat unacceptable.

These are all her 'daughters'.

However, the other Black Widows watched with great interest.

Natasha doesn't seem to care about that.

That would be interesting.

At this point, the Black Widows all experienced the "Suspension Bridge Effect" —Li Chen saved them, and they all developed a slight liking for Li Chen.

They kept their feelings to themselves because they already knew he was Natasha's man.

However, it has now been discovered that Natasha doesn't care that Li Chen has other women, and Yelena's relationship with her is quite special.

Then other people can accept it too!

As a result, the Black Widows ' gaze towards Li Chen immediately changed.

It was like a tigress spotting her prey.

Li Chen is terrified of them.

Although Black Widows aren't individually strong, they can coordinate well.

Fortunately, nothing happened on the plane.

Li Chen was more interested in Melina.

Melina is very well-maintained; she looks like she's in her early thirties, and her skin isn't as bad as other Caucasian women's—she's in good condition.

Melina only had a husband during missions in the past; in reality, she has always been single.

Most importantly, Li Chen found her relationships with Natasha and Yelena interesting.

Who doesn't love rice bowls?

So, Li Chen chatted with Melina the whole way, and soon made Melina laugh.

Melina found Li Chen to be witty and humorous, and that Li Chen also made subtle gestures that revealed his intentions to Melina.

For example, Li Chen might shake her hand or gently brush against her.

Melina did not refuse; instead, she felt her heart race.

She hadn't felt this way in many years, and yet she was still at the age where she was full of youthful vigor and couldn't control her inner thoughts at all.

And so, the plane flew straight to Los Angeles.

Natasha and Yelena then came over.

The two sisters had been chatting, which gave Li Chen and Melina the opportunity.

"What are you talking about? You seem to be having a lot of fun."

Natasha asked after she returned.

Melina laughed and said, "Li is talking about Hollywood, it's very interesting."

For example, Li Chen told her that there are couples on set in Hollywood who often fall in love while filming.

Once filming wrapped, they would immediately end the relationship.

Melina's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.

She felt that Li Chen was giving her a hint.

That means you can be a little more casual.

"Yeah?"

Natasha said, "I don't find it interesting at all; it's more tiring than doing missions."

Yelena laughed and said, "Melina, Natasha is a big star now."

I don't want to either.

Natasha rolled her eyes. "It was all Lee's fault."

She explained to Melina and Yelena why she was making the movie, and when they heard it was part of the mission, Melina and Yelena became interested and asked her about things on set.

Natasha also talked about things that outsiders didn't know.

But one thing is certain: being a star is really great. The entire crew revolves around serving you, which is truly enjoyable.
