"I feel like Ivy doesn't..."
"Like you?"
"Yeah."
On the streets of the Upper West Side, Harley Quinn wasn't surprised by Li Ang's words.
She opened her mouth and said, "Because Ivy and I are best friends, and we were even in love."
Harley Quinn stated this matter frankly.
Li Ang found it a bit hard to accept, yet it also felt normal.
This was America.
Besides men and women, there were over a hundred genders.
No wonder Poison Ivy Pamela cared so much about Harley Quinn, not only strengthening her body but also giving her whatever she asked for.
Harley Quinn didn't let Li Ang overthink: "That's all in the past. Now I only love you, Dear!"
"Let's hurry home. We only have half a day left."
The Joker and Harley Quinn were a twisted pair, and there was no affection between them, only the Joker's exploitation of Harley Quinn.
Even murder.
The Joker had tried to kill Harley Quinn countless times, but Harley Quinn had a tough life.
And now, she had finally decided to stop loving the Joker completely.
All it took was falling in love with someone else.
For this remaining half-day, the couple didn't even leave their room after returning home. The entire dilapidated old building seemed to shake.
Because their physical conditions were both 'Metahuman', the two felt neither fatigue nor hunger.
It wasn't until school was out that Li Ang thought about making dinner.
"Kara is coming back. I need to make dinner."
Li Ang struggled to get up.
Hearing Kara's name, Harley Quinn stopped hindering him. Otherwise, he'd surely be dragged back.
She was like a machine that never stopped. Li Ang was getting a little scared.
Was this like working in a factory?
In the kitchen, Li Ang was attempting to make stir-fried pork.
Since Chinatown was nearby, green chili peppers and other ingredients were easy to buy.
This was a bit difficult for Li Ang. It was his first time making it, and Harley Quinn kept interfering.
At this moment, Harley was wearing his white shirt, playing the 'bottoms disappear' look. Her long legs were spotless, and her fishnet stockings were long gone.
She would occasionally hug Li Ang from behind and say, "Wow, Dear, you can really cook Chinese food?"
Sometimes she'd try to help Li Ang get seasonings, but because she couldn't tell them apart, like light soy sauce, she ended up being a hindrance.
Finally, when Kara returned, she saw a blob of black and sticky chili fried pork in front of her.
At least the rice was okay.
Kara looked at the two and asked, "Godfather, this is..."
"Harley said she wanted to try making Chinese food," Li Ang said immediately. He had to maintain his image with Kara.
Harley Quinn thought the same way, so she said, "I just helped your Godfather a little."
"Believe me, I know how to do a lot of things. Next time, I'll fry you a steak."
Hearing this, Kara understood.
These two were really unreliable.
Especially now that Harley Quinn was wearing Li Ang's clothes, it made her even more displeased.
But even so, the obedient Kara still ate.
Actually, apart from the poor presentation, the taste was quite good.
Chinese food was like that. As long as you followed the steps, it generally wouldn't be too bad.
As long as you didn't add too many seasonings and make it too heavy.
And for Kara's age group, she naturally preferred stronger flavors.
"Don't rush, there's still something in the oven."
Li Ang took out roasted pork chops from the oven.
Fortunately, the pork chops were fine because all you had to do was spread the sauce evenly and put them in the oven.
Thus, a 'family of three' began to eat.
This wasn't Harley Quinn's first time eating Chinese food. Chinatowns exist in every city now, so Chinese cuisine isn't particularly rare.
But for her, this was the first time eating authentic Chinese food, not an Americanized version.
She had initially thought it would be terrible, but after one bite, she realized.
"Pork is actually delicious?"
In her impression, pork was always unappetizing.
That's precisely why there were so many vegetarians.
Was it because they didn't like meat?
No, it was because meat tasted bad.
But with Chinese food, that problem didn't exist.
Li Ang ignored her and asked Kara, "How are you feeling today?"
"Not bad," Kara replied.
"That girl... Rachel? How are you getting along with her?"
Hearing the question, Kara thought for a moment.
Rachel was very quiet, even a bit reclusive. She seemed to have only spoken to Kara all day.
Thinking this, Kara answered, "We're okay."
Li Ang felt a bit relieved. "You're friends, remember to protect her."
While eating pork chops, Kara nodded, "I will."
Harley Quinn listened to the father and daughter's conversation, her eyes sparkling with an unknown thought.
After dinner, Li Ang had to go out.
However, he was uneasy.
Because Harley Quinn would be staying here, would she corrupt Kara?
So he said, "I'm going out. Don't run around the house."
"Don't worry, dear. You know how honest I am, don't you?" Harley Quinn knew he was talking to her, so she immediately assured him.
Li Ang himself didn't know how much truth there was in that promise.
But he had no choice but to believe her.
Li Ang closed the door and headed to the Iceberg Lounge.
Although he didn't say it, Harley Quinn could definitely guess.
Frank's suit and tie were too obvious.
In all of Gotham, no one would order their subordinates to dress like that except for the Penguin.
At the Iceberg Lounge, Li Ang went directly to see the Penguin and told him about the alcohol.
"Street Demon Gang?" the Penguin narrowed his eyes and said, "What do you think we should do?"
Hearing the Penguin's words, Li Ang offered no opinion.
"It's all up to Mr. Cobblepot."
This made the Penguin chuckle.
He could also tell that Li Ang was a good person who didn't want to get involved in these things.
But being in Gotham, he was involuntarily drawn in.
Li Ang would eventually understand.
"You can go now."
Li Ang nodded and returned to the club, losing interest in the hormone-filled, alluring figures.
He found that compared to Harley Quinn, ordinary women seemed like mere cheap makeup.
He didn't like vases; he liked 'special' women like Harley Quinn.
Harley Quinn brought him danger and excitement, making his adrenaline surge.
At home now, Harley Quinn was doing something that would absolutely make his adrenaline surge.
She had already put on the clothes she bought today, which she had specifically protected from the crazy Li Ang from ruining.
After admiring herself in the mirror, Li Ang went to Kara's door and knocked.
"Kara, dear, the night is long. How about I take you out to play?" she enticed from the doorway.
"No way!"
Kara responded quickly.
She was quite obedient. If her Godfather told her not to go out, she wouldn't wander off.
Even though she really wanted to test her abilities right now.
"Really? I was thinking of helping your Godfather."
