Someone once said that good deeds should be credited.

Li Wei wholeheartedly agreed.

Otherwise, who would know he had gone to rescue Tony Stark?

This kind of gesture of letting bygones be bygones would elevate Li Wei's image immensely.

Of course, the main thing was to seize back the spotlight.

Why should Hollywood stars get to steal the spotlight?

And with that kind of ridiculous gossip scandal, why should it draw so much attention?

The headlines had to belong to him!

So, before setting off, Li Wei was surrounded by reporters, wearing an expression of deep sorrow.

"Mr. Li Wei, we heard you're going to rescue Tony Stark. Why would you do that?"

The reporters were curious as well.

The two of them were clearly sworn enemies, so why would he take the initiative to find him at a time like this?

Shouldn't he be secretly celebrating instead?

Li Wei immediately declared righteously, "You know, Tony Stark is an exceptionally brilliant scientist. There has never been any hostility between us. On the contrary, we are good brothers, and I don't even mind his defiance toward me!"

"That is why I'm going to save him. America cannot afford to lose such a great scientist!"

Solving problems with a formula was certainly fast.

Li Wei had raised the matter to a higher level, leaving those reporters who wanted to stir up trouble with nothing to say.

In truth, if Li Wei said even one wrong thing, they would report it however they pleased.

Li Wei needed media attention, but he also needed to build his public image.

Though bad publicity was still publicity...

Still, if he could avoid being tarnished, he would. Everyone liked pink and tender things, not black ones.

"All right, everyone, I'm leaving now. Please wait for news."

Li Wei spoke solemnly.

Then he quickly took Eve and 2B into a black vehicle.

Only special departments dared to use windows that could not be seen through from outside.

Otherwise, American police officers would teach them a lesson in no time.

Once inside, he saw Natasha Romanoff sitting in the front passenger seat, looking at Li Wei speechlessly. "Why make such a huge spectacle of it?"

"Natasha, long time no see."

Li Wei extended his hand to shake hers. Natasha's fingers, intentionally or otherwise, brushed against his palm.

"Can't help it. Maybe I'm just too handsome."

Li Wei calmly withdrew his hand. As expected of the Black Widow—she was direct.

As the saying went,

Don't let good women down, and don't waste bad women.

He liked bad women!

"True enough."

Hearing that, Natasha deliberately turned her head to examine him, then agreed.

Eve watched the two of them. If they did not have business to attend to, those two might have ignited on the spot.

At that moment, Eve and 2B sat on either side of Li Wei, sandwiching him between them to "protect" him.

Seeing the look in Eve's eyes, Natasha chuckled softly.

She liked this feeling.

Soon, they arrived at the military airport.

Crates bearing the Future Technology Company logo had already been delivered.

They were being loaded onto a Quinjet.

"Get out."

Black Widow Natasha spoke, then opened the door and got out first.

She was wearing an agent uniform today. The black outfit perfectly accentuated her figure, and paired with her long, wavy reddish-brown hair, she exuded the air of a commanding older woman.

Maria Hill was waiting at the airport as well. She held a tablet in her hand, and her short black hair made her look sharp and capable.

"Hey."

Li Wei hugged Maria Hill.

"Be careful in the Middle East."

Maria Hill said, "They dared to kidnap even Tony Stark. They're clearly brazen beyond measure."

"Don't worry."

Li Wei knew she had come to see him off.

As the deputy director, she could not possibly head to the front lines.

Black Widow Natasha, on the other hand, had gone straight aboard the Quinjet.

Li Wei did not linger either. He whispered into Maria Hill's ear, "Wait for me to come back."

"Mm."

Maria Hill said reluctantly, "You have to protect yourself."

Seeing her concern, Li Wei smiled smugly.

Sure enough, only by going all the way could he conquer a woman's heart.

Then he took 2B and Eve aboard the Quinjet.

With the two women protecting him, it would be hard for Li Wei to have an accident even if he wanted one.

"Sit properly and fasten your seat belt."

Seeing that Li Wei was unfamiliar with it, Black Widow Natasha leaned over to fasten his seat belt for him. They nearly brushed too close, though there was no chance of anything actually happening.

All that could be said was that the Black Widow's figure was far too explosive—curves in all the right places, without the slightest flaw.

Then, the Quinjet took off vertically.

The Quinjet's defining feature was that it did not need a runway like other aircraft, and its landings were incredibly smooth as well.

Of course, its greatest advantage was speed.

"It'll take a few hours to get there. Do whatever you want."

Once the flight stabilized, Black Widow Natasha took out a piece of gum and offered it to Li Wei.

Then she seductively placed a piece on her own tongue and began chewing.

Li Wei unwrapped his and ate it too, then asked, "Do you have flight attendants dancing?"

"I heard Tony Stark's private jet has flight attendants of every skin color, like a rainbow."

Black Widow Natasha rolled her eyes at him.

"Then go ride Tony Stark's private jet."

Men really were all terrible.

She decisively put on her headphones and ignored Li Wei.

Li Wei shook his head. Women.

The flight was indeed boring, so Li Wei simply rested his head on Eve's thighs and fell asleep.

Don't ask why not 2B. Eve's soft thighs were more comfortable.

Upon arriving in the Middle East, Black Widow Natasha saw how much Li Wei was "enjoying" himself and immediately shook him awake.

"We're here."

She glanced at Eve. Li Wei had been lying on her for so long—weren't her legs numb?

Eve ignored her and merely helped Li Wei up gently. Her legs were not numb in the slightest.

Li Wei yawned and walked to the side. Looking out the window, all he saw was desolation.

No wonder it was called the graveyard of empires...

Even the few cities that remained had mostly been destroyed.

The American military had not come here to build things, but to destroy them!

Eve glanced outside and said, "Master, why does this place look like a wasteland?"

"Because this is Earth's wasteland."

Li Wei sighed.

The Quinjet landed steadily at the American military base.

The atmosphere here was extremely serious. All kinds of new American military equipment were present, making the place look very impressive.

With such a gap in weaponry, they should have been able to defeat the enemy easily. Yet in reality, they had been dragged into a quagmire of war and could not extricate themselves.

But Li Wei did not care about any of that. He hoped the American military would remain bogged down here.

Many capitalists thought the same way, especially military-industrial companies like Stark Industries.

Without war, what use would military-industrial companies be?

Soon, military personnel came forward to greet them.

"That's General Davis."

Black Widow Natasha immediately whispered into Li Wei's ear.

General Davis did not look pleased, because Li Wei had put tremendous pressure on them.

If Li Wei had not kept "urging" them online, how could so many people have paid attention to this matter?

Especially since Li Wei had given a speech before departing not long ago, raising the attention that had finally begun to die down.

General Davis hated him intensely!

Li Wei pretended not to notice and greeted him warmly. "General Davis, I've heard so much about you."
