I Have Some Hormones That Need Balancing
Duncan Apartment.
It must be said that since studying medicine, Adam has become increasingly accurate in his understanding of the human body.
MAX slept until 10 o'clock. When he opened his eyes, the sun was high in the sky. He exclaimed that he was in trouble and was about to jump up to go to work when he found that he was too weak to move.
Then she held her waist.
"Ouch, damn Adam!"
MAX turned to the side, cried out in pain, and cursed under his breath.
In fact, Adam cannot be entirely blamed.
Because she already had a bad back, it was all because she was putting too much strain on her front.
After lying down for a while, she finally felt a little better. Her eyes caught sight of a note on Adam's pillow. She reached out and picked it up, only to find out that Adam had already asked for leave for her.
"You're so experienced; you must have done this kind of thing a lot before."
MAX complained, "No wonder he said he didn't want to be in a relationship and only wanted to stay in a state of being more than friends but less than lovers. I guess no one wants to be your girlfriend!"
As he spoke, he lay down again, supporting his back, and stared at the ceiling in silence.
"It seems I need to keep my distance from him."
MAX muttered, "If it were like this every day, who could stand it? It's insane..."
After venting for a while, she couldn't help but think that the reason things turned out this way was entirely because of her deliberate provocation, and then she fell back into the dilemma of last night.
I was moved by Adam's encouragement.
They also feel inferior because of their own circumstances and dare not imagine a better future.
She naturally sensed Adam's feelings; otherwise, she wouldn't have told him so much about her story.
The reason she wanted to keep her distance was less because she was afraid of being severely punished for her provocation last night, and more because she was trembling with unease at Adam's approach.
As Experienced Women, she is not afraid of any physical contact.
However, even the slightest emotional contact made her feel apprehensive.
The following weeks.
What put her at ease was that Adam had already restrained himself before she could even try to keep her distance.
Adam no longer brings up the dream issue that had previously made her nervous.
Even the most extreme physical interactions were reduced to a suitable duration and intensity.
MAX Diner.
"You know what? I just realized that last year, I only dated Richard and Julio."
Monica complained to Adam, "You always say there are so many handsome men and beautiful women in your year of medical students, you have to help me find a match and get back into the dating scene, please?"
It's not that I don't want to help you.
Adam advised, "It's not that my classmates are right for you. Believe me, you won't enjoy dating them, no matter how handsome they are."
"I know, I know."
Monica hesitated, "You guys are so busy that you don't have time to nurture a relationship. But I don't need a very serious relationship right away. I just want to find a handsome guy to get back into the dating scene, like you, more than friends but not quite lovers, that would be perfect."
Seeing Adam looking at her strangely, Monica shrugged and glared at him. "What's wrong? You're allowed to stare at my fake bear for over a month without clapping, but I'm not allowed to have my hormones explode and find someone to balance it out?"
"I didn't say that. You can do it, I support you!"
Faced with Monica's attitude of "I need to balance my hormones," Adam could only give her a thumbs up. "Tell me what kind you want, and I'll give it a try."
"My requirements are not high."
Monica then smiled, rubbing her hands together, and said, "I don't care how handsome he is, as long as I find him pleasing to the eye."
Does it have to be him?
Adam joked.
"Of course not."
Monica retorted, "If you're willing to give me MAX, I'll do the same."
"Can."
Adam smiled and said, "I don't mind, do as you please."
He's not like Ross, who feels like the sky is falling when he hears his wife is a lesbian.
A capable man wouldn't have this as his first reaction, would he?
"..."
Monica was shocked by Adam's shamelessness.
Excuse me.
At that moment, a guest called out to Monica.
"Is there anything you need?"
Monica, burdened by her eldest son's heavy baggage, walked over to the guest and asked.
"A slice of cheesecake."
The customer, who was calculating his tip, looked up and smiled, "I have another date, if I do?"
"Didn't we already say that?"
Monica and the guest were clearly acquainted. Upon hearing this, she laughed and said, "The reason you want to go on a date with me is because I'm blonde, Big Bear, and even serve you food."
"Of course not."
The guest laughed and said, "If that's the case, then I'll just go find my aunt."
"Ahem, in the United States, this is a criminal offense."
Adam couldn't help but interject.
"I was just kidding."
The guest explained.
"Me too."
Adam looked at the familiar face and reached out his hand, saying, "My name is Adam, Monica's good friend. As you probably heard, Monica outsourced her date to me, so..."
"So, I need to please you."
The guest very politely extended his hand and shook it. "Peter Baker, Monica's suitor."
"I feel like I've seen you somewhere before."
Adam scrutinized Peter: "Do you like reading comics?"
"Uh, comics?"
Peter thought Adam recognized him, but unexpectedly the conversation turned to comics.
"Well enough."
Have you seen Iron Man?
Adam pressed for an answer.
"Do you think I look like Iron Man?"
Peter stroked his mustache, looking somewhat smug.
Although Iron Man is currently only a second or third-tier superhero in the comic book world, his lifestyle is very much in line with that of the wealthy.
Just like how handsome people tend to empathize more with ordinary male protagonists in novels.
As a wealthy man, Peter also felt a strong connection to Iron Man.
"No."
Adam said in a serious tone, "I think you look a lot like Happy Iron Man's bodyguard. If there's ever a live-action Iron Man, I suggest you audition."
"..."
Peter's face immediately fell.
Bodyguard Happy?
Who is that?
Believe it or not, he might just produce Iron Man movie and star in it himself.
"Adam!"
Monica gave Adam a reproachful look.
Don't overthink it.
Adam explained, "This is a compliment. Although Happy is just a bodyguard, he is Iron Man's confidant and good friend. In the end, he not only inherited a large fortune from Iron Man, but also married Iron Man's beloved Pepper Potts. He's definitely a winner in life."
"Yeah?"
Peter was a little uncertain.
He had only read some Iron Man comics, but he didn't know much about Iron Man. After all, both Marvel and DC had very complicated storylines, with frequent timeline reboots and the creation of parallel universes.
If you're not a die-hard fan, you simply can't figure it out.
According to Adam, this bodyguard Happy is truly a winner in life.
Happy" to describe him is not an insult at all.
"Yes."
Adam said in a serious tone, "Do you know why he was able to beat Iron Man and marry Pepper Potts? It's because he genuinely loves Pepper Potts."
Compared to Iron Man, who's over forty and still out having fun all the time, Happy, who spends every day with her, is true love.
The great sage Zhou Shuren of the East Country once said, "Accompanying is the longest confession of love," and that's exactly what he meant.
"So that's what he was like."
Hearing this, Peter couldn't help but smile, thinking to himself, "Isn't that exactly the kind of person I am? Adam is right. If they ever make a live-action Iron Man movie, maybe I can audition for Happy, just for fun. Or I could invest in it myself and direct it; that would be really interesting..."
Adam almost couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.
This Peter is Happy, the bodyguard in the original Iron Man movies, and also the director of Iron Man.
Okay, they just look the same.
P. S.: Thanks to Ye Tan, Lu Tofu is Very Hard, A Cry from the Vast Sea for the donations! There will be more tonight.
