"She was only 6 years old back then, just 6! In her heart, I was her older sister, but I failed to protect her!"
Tears welled up in Black Widow's eyes.
Qin Xiao went over and hugged the Black Widow who was sitting on the sofa, gently kissing her head through her hair.
She asked softly and gently.
What happened next?
"Later..."
A hint of struggle and pain flashed in Black Widow's eyes.
"Later, I was lucky enough to survive in the Red Room, completed my training, and become a ' Black Widow '! They... they removed my uterus and fallopian tubes..."
Qin Xiao felt Black Widow's body tremble slightly, and he tightened his grip on her hands. "It's alright, it's not your fault!"
Perhaps receiving Yelena's photo today triggered Black Widow's memories.
It could also be Qin Xiao's gentle comfort and persuasion.
Or perhaps both.
Black Widow recounted her experiences before joining S.H.I.E.L.D.. in one go, providing a clear and detailed account.
She met Hawkeye, her mission failed, Hawkeye let her go, and finally, with Hawkeye's help, she carried out the mission to kill Dreykov.
"I watched as Dreykov's youngest daughter walked into the house. From her eyes, I knew she knew nothing; she was just an innocent, ordinary girl. But I still pressed the detonation button..."
This deepest wound in Black Widow's heart was reopened by herself, and she finally opened her heart completely, bursting into tears.
Having served as a killing machine in the Red Room for so long, Black Widow has killed scientists, politicians, and hostile spies.
But never has an innocent little girl committed murder simply because she was in a hurry to leave the Red Room.
Even as she detonated the bomb, she saw Yelena as an adult in her mind, her eyes as innocent and pure as Dreykov's youngest daughter's.
A very, very long time passed...
Black Widow's emotions gradually calmed down.
She nestled in Qin Xiao 'Qin Xiao arms, looked up at him, and spoke.
"I'm a monster. I don't have a uterus. I'm not even qualified to be a mother..."
Qin Xiao's eyes remained completely unmoved.
"I'm a monster too. I'm invulnerable to swords and spears, incredibly strong, and can even breathe fire... I even wonder if I ate a few gourds in my past life..."
"Gourd?"
Qin Xiao successfully changed the subject away from Black Widow.
"Yes, gourds! Today I'll tell you the story of the Calabash Brothers... A long, long time ago, there was an old man..."
Finally... the seven Calabash Brothers drove away the Scorpion Demon and lived happily ever after with the Snake Demon in the mountains!
Black Widow burst into laughter at Qin Xiao's unserious story about the Calabash Brothers.
"So, dear Mr. Qin, the Calabash Brother, where is your snake spirit?"
"I don't like snakes, I like spiders, the more venomous the better, like Black Widow... ugh!"
Qin Xiao was only halfway through his sentence when Black Widow silenced him with a kiss.
Unlike their previous kisses, Black Widow's kisses today were more provocative and aggressive.
With his blood boiling, Qin Xiao frantically began trying to take off the Black Widow's clothes.
As a result, Black Widow gently pushed him, and he fell onto the sofa.
With her back to the moonlight streaming through the window, Black Widow looked down at the viewer and gently untied the strap of her dress.
The silk dress slid down her fair, smooth skin.
Qin Xiao couldn't help but gasp.
Black Widow looked at Qin Xiao and saw the undisguised fervor and adoration in his eyes.
With a slight smile, she said, "My little Calabash Brothers, here I come!"
Under the moonlight, her flawless, white body gently rested on Qin Xiao's body...
... Nothing happened that night...
... purely based on imagination...
The next morning.
Qin Xiao slowly opened his eyes in the sunlight, feeling the warmth in his arms and the amazing smoothness and elasticity of his hands.
Qin Xiao grinned silently.
Although Qin Xiao's years of diligent study materials were not all put to use because of Black Widow's back injury.
But it was also quite memorable. Gently stroking the wound on Black Widow Black Widow's back, I recalled the stories she had told me yesterday.
He had just been discharged from the hospital after being attacked when he received news of his sister, whom he had lost contact with for many years.
What a coincidence! Now that she's become his woman, Qin Xiao is taking on all the grudges and passions of Black Widow's past.
Qin Xiao had originally intended to go to Nick Fury to get some information about the Red Room.
However, now that Yelena has appeared, Qin Xiao has decided to sit back and wait for his opponent to come knocking.
Let's see what they're up to.
As expected...
After a few days of blissful, shameless bliss with Black Widow.
It was past 11 p. m. one night.
Qin Xiao and Black Widow were snuggled on the sofa, kissing passionately. Qin Xiao picked up Black Widow and was about to head towards the bedroom.
Nicole's voice rang out from the living room...
After arriving in New York, Qin Xiao had Tony set up another system there, though the main body was still connected to the secret room in the apartment in Los Angeles.
"Sir, I know I shouldn't bother you now, but Mr. Stark is outside. He says he needs to come in and see you!"
If it weren't for Nicole's voice, Qin Xiao would have almost forgotten that he and Tony were neighbors in New York.
"Tell him to go back to his own house, I'm having a very important life event..."
Qin Xiao perfectly embodies the idiom "to value a romantic relationship over a friend."
"Sir, I think you should open the door. Miss Romanoff will be interested in what Mr. Stark has."
Nicole switched to the television screen, where Tony stood outside the door holding a manila envelope.
"Qin..."
Black Widow looked at Qin Xiao with hope in her eyes.
Qin Xiao, of course, could distinguish the importance and urgency of the matter, and sighed as he spoke.
"Go inside and change your clothes, Nicole. Tell that bastard to wait at the door for a minute."
To be honest, Tony really didn't mean to bother the young couple.
Who knew that Qin Xiao would bring Black Widow back? S.H.I.E.L.D.. gave Black Widow leave to recover from her injuries. When agents are on leave, no one usually knows their whereabouts.
Who knew that Qin Xiao would take them straight home?
Tony swaggered in, envelope in hand.
"Qin, what have you been up to lately? I haven't seen you for days, and it took you so long to get Nicole to open the door. Are you hiding a woman in your house?"
He casually tossed the envelope into Qin Xiao's hand.
"Get me back the wine you secretly took from me. I want to have a proper drink with you. You don't know, I've been living with Pepper lately... Wahaha? Natasha! You two are living together!"
Tony was speaking when he suddenly saw Natasha, dressed in pajamas, slowly walk out of the bedroom.
He put his arm around Qin Xiao's shoulder with a look of utter disbelief.
"Did I interrupt your good time just now? Heh heh! What were you thinking, kid? Tell me, you're only in your early twenties, my God! You actually brought a woman back to your home? Isn't the presidential suite at the hotel good enough? You're not giving up a whole forest at such a young age, are you? Let me tell you, a man who hasn't been a lumberjack is shameful..."
Tony punched Qin Xiao hard in the ribs twice, then turned to Black Widow with a sincere expression and said.
"I never imagined you two would officially be together! Congratulations, Natasha! Congratulations!"
