Chapter 542
"Gwen Stacy, Gwen Stacy."
Gwen Stacy put down her book, tilted her head slightly, and asked curiously, "Are you a student here too?"
"I'm sorry, I'm not..." Su Quan shrugged, looked up at the clear blue sky, and said with a smile, "The weather is great today."
The weather is nice, but the topics you're trying to make conversation about aren't very good; they're a bit cliché.
Gwen Stacy smiled and said, "Yes, it is indeed very good."
Su Quan looked into her bright eyes and blinked. "Don't you think this kind of weather is perfect for playing around, and even more perfect for kissing and hugging?"
Gwen Stacy covered her mouth and chuckled, raising her hand and saying, "Alright, I admit my first impression of you was pretty good. You're generous and poised, humorous and witty, and most importantly—very handsome!"
"But if you want to ask me out, I'm afraid you'll have to keep trying."
"I see—that's fine too!" Su Quan smiled noncommittally, "I hope you are my niche hobby, something that brings me joy when I keep it to myself and immense pride when I show it off."
Gwen Stacy's eyes lit up slightly. "That's a good line. Congratulations on taking another small step closer to successfully asking me out."
How small is a small step?
"So small..." Gwen Stacy gestured with her hand.
Well, it's definitely a small step!
"Ring ring ring—" The school bell suddenly rang, and Gwen Stacy jumped off the desk. "I have to go to class. It's nice to meet you."
Su Quan asked with a smile, "How happy are you?"
"..."
The unexpected question caught Gwen Stacy off guard, but she reacted quickly, taking out a pen and paper to write down a few numbers, then tearing them off and handing them to Su Quan.
"So happy!"
After giving her her contact information, Gwen Stacy smiled and waved, saying, "I have to go to class now, goodbye."
"Goodbye."
Gwen Stacy walked quickly toward the teaching building, glancing back as she went in. Seeing that Su Quan hadn't left, a smile returned to her face.
Then, he turned around and went inside.
Su Quan glanced at the number and put the note into his personal storage space.
Approaching someone can be very simple. When you see someone you like, walk up to them confidently, say hello, tell them you're beautiful, and express your feelings.
Then...
If you're as handsome as the readers, you'll most likely get their number.
As for not knowing or understanding each other, isn't that perfectly normal?
Before people get to know each other, they are strangers. How can they become familiar with each other if they don't get to know each other?
Approaching someone is just a means of getting to know them. As long as the first impression doesn't make the girl dislike you, she doesn't actually resist being approached and can accept this way of getting to know you.
The bustling campus quieted down as the school bell rang. Su Quan walked out of the campus, bought a copy of the Daily Bugle from a nearby newsstand, and read it as he walked.
There wasn't any particularly noteworthy news in the newspapers, after all, neither Spider-Man nor any of the other characters had made their debut yet at this time.
Back at the hotel, Silk and Spider-Girl hadn't returned yet. Su Quan opened a bottle of Red Wine and soaked in the outdoor swimming pool on the balcony, leisurely gazing at the scenery of Central Park while studying the information on the various serums he had obtained.
Su Quan was not a particularly gifted scientist, nor did he have the enthusiasm to contribute to scientific endeavors, but he possessed a super brain and an extremely strong ability to Rapid Learning.
Therefore, studying these serums was not difficult for him; it's just that he didn't have a passion for it and had always been too lazy to do it himself.
Su Quan's main research focuses on Green Goblin's Human Enhancement Potion and Lizard Professor's regenerative serum.
In this world, Norman Osborn did not develop Human Enhancement Potion, but instead placed all his hopes on Lizard Professor's Interspecies Genetic Project.
Unfortunately, he didn't live to see it in the movie, because the Interspecies Genetic Project was a joint project between the Lizard Professor and Peter Parker's father.
Peter Parker's father succeeded; Peter Parker was his creation. Peter Parker's genes contained spider DNA, which is why he was able to gain his abilities after being bitten by a spider.
Come to think of it, people in this world really enjoy researching Interspecies Genetic Project, only the animals they study are different.
Peter Parker's father studied spiders, Lizard Professor studied lizards, and Dr. Nightshade, also known as Morbius the vampire, studied bats!
In a sense, their research was successful.
One became Spider-Man, one became the Lizard, and one became a vampire?
"Ding-dong—ding-dong—ding-dong—"
The doorbell rang.
Su Quan, in the swimming pool, slightly raised the corners of his mouth and waved his finger. (The rest of the text appears to be a series of numbers and symbols, possibly a corrupted or incomplete message. A direct translation is not possible without further context.)
"Bang!"
The door to the room suddenly opened by itself.
A woman in a black business suit stood outside the door. The moment the door opened, a professional smile appeared on her face, and she was about to greet him.
Before she could even utter a word, she froze.
There was no one in front of her!
There's no one here, so how did the door open?
The woman hesitated for a moment, then leaned inside and tentatively called out, "Hello, is anyone home?"
"Come in, I'm on the balcony," a man's voice replied.
The woman was startled. She came in, closed the door, and hesitantly walked towards the balcony.
Not long after, she saw Su Quan drinking in the swimming pool on the balcony.
"Hello, are you Mr. Su Quan?" she asked, while secretly glancing at him.
PS: The Black Cat picture was of a real person, a rather conservative one.
Sunlight streamed down, and the water rippled. Su Quan leaned against the edge of the pool with one hand, swirling the Red Wine in his glass with the other, his gaze fixed on the slightly reserved woman before him.
Felicia Hardy, this woman is none other than the future master thief, Black Cat!
Su Quan's first impression of her was not stunning. Her conservative clothing concealed her impressive figure, and she gave the overall impression of being a petite, obedient, and competent tool.
But if you look closely, you'll discover her strengths!
First, she is very attractive; the kind of person who becomes more charming the more you look at her.
Secondly, beneath that innocent face lies boldness and rebelliousness. Although she lowers her head slightly, her eyes are secretly scrutinizing her figure and identity.
This shows that she is not as reserved as she appears!
"Felicia Hardy, do you know that I specifically asked Harry to send you?"
Felicia Hardy shook her head and whispered, "Chairman Norman sent me to pick you up and take you to Osborn Industries. However, before I came, Young Master Harry did give me instructions to fulfill all your requests no matter what."
"All the requirements—are you prepared to do this?" Su Quan said with a smile.
Felicia Hardy seemed oblivious to the implied meaning and said bluntly, "Why not? I'm the chairman's assistant, it's my job, and I really need this job."
Su Quan nodded and said with a smile, "Let me see you walk the catwalk."
"Walk, walk like a cat?" Felicia Hardy stared wide-eyed in astonishment.
"You still refuse or you don't know?"
Felicia Hardy shook her head and explained, "No, no, I can try."
As she spoke, she took a deep breath, adjusted her posture, and began to walk around the swimming pool with a cat-like gait.
Catwalk, also known as runway walk, usually refers to the gait of actors or models when performing on stage.
When taking a step, the hips move out, the thighs move, the knees lift, the lower legs move, and the feet move, bringing the inner sides of the two legs close together.
The foot steps out in a straight line, and when landing, the toes point slightly outward.
The hind leg then follows forward, and the body's center of gravity also follows in time.
The ankles should be strong, and the movements should alternate between both feet, with smooth and rhythmic motions.
The body moves up and down in a coordinated manner, with the waist serving as the link between the upper and lower limbs; its dynamic coordination is key to the movement.
Upright yet not rigid, flexible yet persistent.
It not only showcases its own charm but also provides a visually pleasing experience for viewers.
Felicia Hardy didn't know why the other party would make such a puzzling request, but she did her best to make it perfect.
Her guiding principle was to either not do anything at all, or to do it to the best of her ability. This was also the reason why she was able to serve as Norman Osborn's assistant for so many years.
Felicia Hardy circled around and stopped in front of him. Su Quan smiled and beckoned her to come closer.
Felicia Hardy crouched down, leaned forward, and then saw the other person reach out and touch her neck.
"Um?"
Felicia Hardy looked puzzled, wondering what he meant.
If you're trying to take advantage of yourself, did you choose the wrong place?
