Marvel: The Girl Next Door Is Spider-Gwen. Author: Gulu Gulu Lu

Ye Li transmigrated into the Marvel world and discovered that his childhood sweetheart and next-door neighbor was "Ghost-Spider" Gwen Stacy, while the younger sister he had taken in was "Knightress" Jessica Jones.

So he loaded the Supernatural Connections System and became the man behind the heroes!

Encouraging Spider-Woman Gwen earned him the Spider-Man template!

Showing warmth to Quake Skye let him copy her Quake abilities!

Feeding Daughter of Galactus Galacta earned him the cosmic Galactus template!!

And there was Wanda, Black Cat Felicia, Polaris, Invisible Woman Sue...

Ancient One: Ye Li is a fine young man. He deserves half the credit for saving the world.

The heroines: Saving the world doesn't matter. What matters most is protecting the best Ye Li!

Ye Li: How did I, a mere group favorite, become invincible?

Ghost-Spider? So This Was the Kind of Gwen You Were!

New York City, Manhattan's Lower East Side.

Through the morning mist, sunlight streamed into an attic art studio.

Before an easel, a devastatingly charming young man leisurely painted the image in his mind.

A battlefield soon emerged on the canvas: a blue portal stood atop a building, monster soldiers swarmed like ants in a frenzy, colossal warships blanketed the sky...

"Dear brother! Breakfast is ready, come down!"

A call came from below the attic.

"Okay, Jessica, please wait a moment."

Ye Li called back.

After finishing the final stroke, he covered the painting with a white cloth.

The New York Battle had not happened yet, so this spur-of-the-moment painting could not be revealed for now.

Ye Li was a transmigrator.

From names like Stark Industries and Osborn Corporation, he could tell this was probably the Marvel world.

So after realizing he was just an ordinary person, he chose to lie low and take it easy.

Save the world?

Leave that to the superheroes.

Still, there was something worth mentioning.

Although Ye Li was an ordinary person, he was no mere passerby when it came to his relationships.

Well...

At the very least, he was probably named-extra material.

His neighbor on the left was George Stacy, commissioner of the New York City Police Department.

George had a daughter named Gwen Stacy. She was a few years younger than Ye Li and had been close to him since childhood.

As for the neighbor on the right, that went without saying. Three people lived there: Ben Parker, Aunt May, and...

Peter Parker.

Yes, Peter Parker, Spider-Man.

Ye Li had never expected that a character he had liked in his previous life would run around behind him when he was still a child.

And that was not the end of it.

The girl calling to him from downstairs was Jessica Ye, originally named Jessica Campbell.

She was Gwen's high school classmate and friend, and her entire family had died in a car accident.

Back then, Ye Li had a sudden lapse in judgment and took her in as a bargain-bin little sister.

Later, he realized that Jessica's familiar life story was practically that of "Knightress" Jessica Jones.

Talk about stacking every possible buff.

As everyone knew, the survival rate of superheroes' friends and family was not particularly high.

Still, Ye Li had managed to survive until now.

Maybe it was because Peter and Jessica had not gone out to become superheroes yet.

After going downstairs,

Ye Li saw two girls already eating breakfast at the table: Jessica and Gwen.

Both wore youthful, stylish casual clothes. Their delicate faces looked like illustrations, cute yet sexy.

One had long black hair, while the other had shoulder-length golden hair.

The black-haired beauty and blonde beauty sitting together made for quite a visual impact.

"Hey, Gwen, you're here too." Ye Li greeted her.

Gwen gave him a playful wink.

"The Chinese breakfast you taught Jessica to make is amazing."

Clearly, she had come over to mooch a meal.

"Li, come over."

Jessica smiled and pulled out a chair between herself and Gwen.

It was the spot they had deliberately saved for Ye Li.

There was no need to spell out what little thoughts lay behind it.

"Jessica, it's Li, not Lee."

Ye Li sat down, gave each girl a soup dumpling, and teased Jessica.

"We've been together for so long. If you keep getting it wrong, I'll be sad~"

"Chinese pronunciation is too hard."

Jessica cutely stuck out her tongue and corrected her pronunciation. "Lee... Li."

"Li~" Gwen called out effortlessly.

"Hey, Gwen, your pronunciation is so accurate!" Jessica said in surprise.

Gwen smiled. "I've been learning Chinese recently."

"Oh, it's hard."

"Brother teaches me sometimes, but I still can't speak proper Chinese."

Jessica learned Chinese cooking quickly, but she did not seem to have much talent for languages.

"You can start with pinyin."

"I'll recommend a website to you."

Gwen took out her phone, entered a web address, and handed it around Ye Li to Jessica.

"This one."

"Take a look."

Her graceful body pressed against Ye Li without the slightest reservation.

The two girls began chatting.

Ye Li had grown used to the sensation of her body against his back. Sandwiched between soft limbs and slender waists, he occasionally chimed in.

As the saying went, beauty was a feast for the eyes.

In this somewhat indescribable atmosphere,

he found breakfast far more appetizing.

Before long, he had finished a steamer basket of soup dumplings and a bowl of egg drop soup.

"Huh?"

"Oh my gosh."

While browsing the web, Jessica saw a news item pop up in her notifications. She immediately placed her phone on the table in front of Ye Li to share it. "Look at this, you two. A superhero—so cool!"

An article was displayed on the phone.

The headline contained the name Spider-Man, along with a photograph.

Ye Li looked at it in confusion.
