Earth's Daily Life

Long Island Villa District

Seaside Highway

A black luxury wedding car glided steadily along the coastal highway.

Sunlight slanted through the windows, while the sea breeze brushed past, carrying a faint breath of freedom.

Tony Stark leaned back in his seat, stroking the watch on his wrist.

It was a gift from Pepper, understated yet exquisite.

He gazed at the azure sea outside, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

"Happy, where are we?" Tony asked lazily.

Happy glanced at him through the rearview mirror and grinned.

"We're just about to pass Mr. Xiao Han's villa, boss."

Tony chuckled. "Oh? That guy's villa? I hope he's back!"

Happy couldn't help laughing. "Boss, Mr. Xiao is Superman. Coming back is easy for him!"

Tony rolled his eyes and muttered, "That guy had better not pull any surprises today, or I'll—"

Screech!

Happy suddenly slammed on the brakes, and the tires scraped against the road with a piercing squeal.

"What the fuck!"

Tony lurched forward and nearly hit the seat in front of him. His eyes widened.

What the hell had happened?!

"Happy! What are you doing?!"

Happy pointed outside the windshield and froze for a moment.

"Boss! It's Mr. Xiao Han!"

Tony froze, then looked up!

Five figures were hovering silently in midair ahead.

Xiao Han wore a black suit, his golden eyes gleaming beneath the sunlight.

Behind him, Wanda, Koo Ja-yoon, Kara, and Diana hovered as well, their postures elegant and composed.

Tony blinked, then broke into a smile and spread his hands.

"Okay! Now that's a real surprise."

Xiao Han smiled faintly and raised his hand. A gentle golden light spilled from his palm, enveloping the entire car.

Before Tony could react, his vision suddenly turned white.

Whoosh!

The next second, he felt the world spin.
