Lu Qi was quite surprised to receive the message from Tony so quickly. After all, Tony and Pepper have made rapid progress in the past six months. Tony even almost convinced Pepper's father to let them get married.
At this time, he was not staying with Pepper?
Lu Qi simply called Tony. After the call was connected, Lu Qi heard the sound of electric welding and cutting at Tony's end.
"It sounds like you are quite busy. Why did you send me a message as soon as I updated? Did you ask JARVIS to pay special attention to it?" Lu Qi took out the snacks he just bought and tasted them carefully.
"Indeed, I've been very busy recently, but you finally got out of that Kamar-Taj, so I have to say hello." Tony's voice sounded as dull as if it were wrapped in a can.
"Are you wearing a battle armor? What are you doing now?" Lu Qi ate a piece of this wolf-toothed potato and thought it was pretty good. How about opening some snack bars outside like Tony?
"I'm changing the energy supply for Stark Tower. Later, my Stark Tower will become the benchmark for renewable energy in the world." came the proud voice of Tony.
"You built a building? You didn't tell me." Lu Qi couldn't sit still now, "Did you squat in Manha?"
"Yes, I originally wanted to give you a surprise, but it sounds more scary?" Tony said doubtfully, cut the cable shell in front of him, and then replaced the energy component.
"Okay, Stark Tower will light up. If you hurry up, maybe you can take a photo to remember it?"
Lu Qi glanced at some snacks on the small table and said on the phone, "I will be there, wait for me, I will bring some gifts."
"Then you have to hurry up." Tony smiled, turned around and flew towards the water.
Lu Qi glanced at the hung up phone. The portal opened and several ninjas came over carrying a bunch of snacks.
"Fortunately, I've been to Manhattan before, otherwise I really wouldn't have made it."
Lu Qi came to Manhattan Special Zone through the portal, and just saw Tony flying over.
"Looks like we've caught up." Lu Qi looked at the direction where Tony was flying. There was a very tall building that he had never seen before. It looked like it was Stark Tower.
Tony came all the way to his building and stood there steadily.
"JARVIS, is our cameraman in place?"
"Sir, I found the cameraman behind."
JARVIS displayed an image, Tony looked inside, Lu Qi took a pose, and then said to Pepper, "You can turn on the lights, the cameraman is in place."
Potts smiled, "It looks like there will be a party tonight, and I didn't prepare anything to eat." Then Potts pulled the switch, and Stark Tower kept turning on the lights from bottom to top.
"It feels pretty good." Tony followed the light and flew upwards, while Lu Qi below also pressed the continuous shooting button.
Flying all the way to a platform above, Tony turned his head and looked at Pepper in the hall, and then the mechanical arms on the aisle removed his armor.
"How long do you think it will take Lu Qi to climb up from below?" Tony said as he walked.
Pepper was amused, but a figure did enter the hall earlier than him.
"Maybe it can fly faster than you?" Lu Qi threw the camera from the portal to the other side, leaning on the table beside his shoulders.
Tony shook his head, straightened his clothes, and picked up a card when passing by the bar.
"Then, this thing is Stark Tower's pass. I suggest you hold it, so as not to make my security measures here seem useless."
Lu Qi took the card, looked at the photo on it, and then put it in his pocket.
"Then I'll take it. Are we going to have a party tonight?" Lu Qi looked around, but there were no beauties or anything like that. "Rhodey, why aren't you here?"
Tony took the red wine from Pepper, "My original plan tonight was to enjoy some private space with Pepper."
"Then I really disturbed you, but I brought some gifts, can you apologize?" Lu Qi asked several ninjas to put large and small bags of snacks on the table.
Pepper smelled it twice and said, "It smells pretty good. Is it some kind of snack?"
"Some of the snacks we have there are all made by my hands. I brought some mace potatoes, crayfish, barbecue and other things."
"Crayfish? Can that thing be eaten?" Tony said suspiciously, smelling the fragrance in the air.
"Actually, crayfish are quite delicious. I don't know why they are so popular here. We have to cultivate them artificially." Lu Qi put on his gloves, took out a piece of crayfish, peeled off the shell and stuffed it into his mouth.
"It looks pretty good." Pepper followed suit, peeled one off and ate it.
"Damn it, I didn't know this thing was so delicious, Tony, you have to give it a try."
Tony arrogantly refused, but Pepper pushed him down.
"Okay, it's really good." Tony's slumped face gradually became vivid. "Maybe I can launch this thing in my restaurant, I believe it will be very popular."
Seeing a certain tsundere putting on gloves and starting to peel the shells, Lu Qi smiled proudly, then picked up a skewer and flicked it off in one gulp.
"You are so barbaric. This is so unsightly." Tony took the barbecue, scraped off all the meat on it, and ate it in one bite.
"Are you teaching me how to eat barbecue?" Lu Qi ate a few more skewers every minute and looked at Tony provocatively.
The efficiency of Tony is indeed not as good as that of Lu Qi. Seeing the deliciousness gradually diminishing, he lost his reserve and began to compete with Lu Qi.
Pepper was eating spicy and sour wolf-tooth potatoes and laughing at the same time. She still liked this kind of snack.
While the rush was on, JARVIS's voice sounded, "Sir, Agent Coulson has sent a communication request."
Tony swallowed the meat in his mouth, "If he is here to celebrate, let him come up to the party. If not, tell him that I am not here."
Watching Lu Qi eat another skewer of barbecue in just a short time, Tony touched his somewhat full belly and said, "Damn it, is your stomach a bottomless pit?"
"Then it seems that someone is in trouble today, because the delicious food is at the back."
Lu Qi opened the portal, and a man named Ninja Soldier came over with grilled fish and the like.
"Well, you are so thoughtful, you actually brought out the delicious food last." Tony smelled the aroma in the air, touched his belly, and said in a state of exhaustion.
"It's okay, I can eat it slowly in front of you, and I can also share some with the employees tonight to avoid wasting it."
Lu Qi blinked, picked up a grilled fish under Tony's murderous eyes, and took a bite.
"It looks pretty good, I'll try it too." Pepper looked at Tony unconcernedly, then took a skewer of grilled fish and ate it slowly.
Looking at Tony's eyes, Lu Qi took a box of chicken feet and said, "Would you like some of this? It doesn't take up much space."
"These are all bones, not a few bites of meat." Tony shook his head, but Lu Qi didn't care so much and stuffed a chicken foot directly into Tony's mouth.
"Isn't it because there is no meat that it is suitable for you to eat now?"
Watching Tony slowly start chewing, Lu Qi picked up a roasted chicken leg and bit into it hard.
Just when Tony began to sadly learn how to chew chicken feet, JARVIS's voice came again.
"Agent Coulson came to see you about work matters. I told him that you were not here, but Agent Coulson didn't believe it."
Tony was chewing chicken feet in his mouth and was speechless. The next second the elevator door opened and Coulson came out.
"Looks like I caught up on a midnight snack?"
I got the shield prototype of Captain America from Tony before, and Coulson became familiar with them.
He came to the table and picked up a skewer of barbecue. Coulson took a bite, only to find that Tony was looking at him with murderous eyes.
"Uh..." Coulson doesn't know what's going on, but after taking a bite of the barbecue, he can't put it down.
Simply put the computer in front of Tony, Coulson said, "It seems that you don't like eating these things very much, but like chicken feet?"
Pepper looked at Tony's increasingly unfriendly eyes and quickly interjected. "Tony is full. Coulson Why are you here? Aren't you busy at work?"
"Oh, work." Coulson swallowed the roast meat, turned to Tony and said, "There is a very urgent work in the computer."
Tony looked up at the ceiling to avoid being angered by this group of people.
"I only receive counseling every Thursday from 8am to 5pm, remember?"
"But this is urgent."
"Is it related to Avengers?" Pepper asked curiously.
Looking at Coulson with strange and suspicious eyes, "Well, I don't know what Avengers is."
Coulson sighed, and Tony looked at Coulson like this and knew that this matter was related to Avengers.
"I thought Avengers Initiative was invalidated."
Tony took a piece of paper and simply wiped his gloved hands, which were still oily, and assembled the computer.
"After all, I'm not qualified enough to join the club, and that guy over there also refused to join."
Pepper smiled, then looked at Coulson's eyes, "I don't know either."
Turning on the power, Tony said unhappily, "Because I am arrogant, have no sense of teamwork, do not obey the orders of my superiors, and most importantly, his one-eyed dragon doesn't like it!"
"I know that." Pepper laughed out loud.
Tony took a look at the information inside and realized that things were not simple. He picked up the computer and walked aside, imported the information into his own server, and started analyzing the data with JARVIS.
"It seems that he has a lot of homework to do tonight." Potts looked at Tony, turned to Lu Qi and said, and then walked towards Tony.
"It seems that you are very busy tonight."
Tony put down his work, turned to Potts and said, "I originally planned to have a two-person world with you tonight, don't worry, I will drive Lu Qi away later."
Potts smiled and accidentally saw the computer screen.
"What kind of job is this?"
Tony looked back at the computer, looked at the small screen, and simply used a projection to display all the information.
Looking at all kinds of information that ordinary people cannot see, Pepper's face gradually became heavy. "It seems that I have to go to Washington tonight."
"No, I can do this work tomorrow."
Pepper looked at Tony's eyes, smiled, and said something in Tony's ear.
Tony's eyes gradually brightened, and Pepper took a step back, "Come on!"
Watching Pepper and Tony kiss each other and turn to walk to the elevator, Coulson quickly finished off the barbecue.
"The director said that you also need to be there, so I will go back first." After talking to Lu Qi, Coulson and Pepper walked into the elevator together.
"Are you busy tonight?" Lu Qi looked at Tony who was already at work, "Then I will give these things to your employees first. I will go back to get some things and go there with you tomorrow."
"Okay." Tony didn't even look back. After entering the state, he basically couldn't pay attention.
