Chapter 162
100,000 USD looks a lot, but the consumption in Los Angeles is also very large. If Ling Xiao’s shop only does normal business, the total annual income is not 100,000, and the net profit is even less. Now, after eating, drink, shit and piss, 100,000 USD is just enough for a better life.
Chang Xi’s family background is ordinary, but his big brother’s income is high. Although some of them can’t be used on the table, they do provide a lot of subsidies every year. Chang Xi’s life in recent years is not bad. In addition, after coming to USC, she has become accustomed to the life of those wealthy children who do not treat money as money. Her knowledge of the purchasing power of 100,000 USD in Los Angeles is also much more true.
“Chang Xi, call your brother over on the 30th night. It’s not a problem for his day to order takeaways every day. It just happened to come and improve during the New Year, and then go to the villa for vacation together.” Ling Xiao Instructed Chang Xi, reaching out and messing up her hair.
“I know, Big Brother Ling, I will tell me and I will tell my big brother.” Chang Xi nodded heavily. She hasn’t seen her own brother for a month. I don’t know what he’s busy with.
“Well, you guys are busy. I’ll call Elder Sister Mikaela to see what this great aunt wants to do.” Ling Xiao slightly shook the head and glanced at the street outside the shop , And returned to the second floor.
Picking up the phone, Ling Xiao dialed the number of Mikaela Banes, the phone was quickly connected, and a lazy voice came over: “Hey, Ling, you finally called me Now!”
Mikaela Banes’s tone was full of resentment. Even though she knew that she had a lot of acting, Ling Xiao still couldn’t help but “look” at Gan Jing downstairs through induction. She told her What’s the matter, let her speak in this tone.
“Mickey, I heard that you are going to attend Mr. Stark’s birthday party?” Ling Xiao ignored Mikaela’s strangeness and asked directly.
Ling Xiao’s temperament, Mikaela, is very clear. This person is very cold in front of outsiders, but the people who care about oneself are very enthusiastic. She admits that oneself has a lot of charm, but doesn’t think Ling Xiao regards oneself as own people, so she directly said: “Yes, I see your name is also on it, so I want to invite you to go with it.”
“Tell me to go together, then how do you get close to Tony?” Ling Xiao frowned, asking own question.
“What can I do? There are many women who want to climb Tony Stark’s bed now, especially after Pepper became the Chief Executive Officer of Stark Industries. I will attend the party tomorrow night. There are many beauties. If you can’t have some special means, I’m afraid you can’t get close to him.” Although a little helpless, Mikaela told Ling Xiao the truth, she couldn’t hide her thoughts from him.
“Okay, I know, I will bring you to Pepper and Tony, and the rest can only rely on yourself.” Ling Xiao chuckled lightly, and he felt the thoughts of Mikaela Banes It’s a bit funny. In Tony Stark’s heart, it is impossible to have a second person to replace Pepper.
“Thank you, I will introduce you to a few more customers.” Mikaela Banes laughed. Of course, he knows the return.
Time flies quickly. Soon in the evening of the next day, Ling Xiao and Mikaela Banes put on their gorgeous new clothes and drove Porsche to the Stark private villa in Malibu Beach.
The car belongs to Mikaela Banes. Ling Xiao’s pickup is really not a take action. He originally wanted to rent a Mercedes-Benz or BMW oneself, but when Gan Jing’s eyes came over, Ling Xiao had nothing else idea.
As soon as he got out of the car, Ling Xiao heard noisy music. It came from the villa and handed the key to the waiter. Ling Xiao took Mikaela and walked in. At this time, his ears moved. The voice from a car behind him came over immediately.
“Yes, General, I understand,..no, this is completely unnecessary, I will handle this, General, I guarantee that within 24 hours, Iron Man will return to his post. “It was Colonel James Rhodes who hung up the phone. After hearing this, Ling Xiao knew that something was urgent.
For Tony Stark’s troubles, Ling Xiao is not at all planning to intervene. With SHIELD by his side, no one can make him suffer. Ling Xiao only intends to follow Tony Stark and make some profit, nothing more.
The faint blue light shines in the small front courtyard, and there is a different kind of beauty. When Ling Xiao walked in with Mikaela, he happened to see Pepper walking out, hurriedly greeted him, and said hello: ” Hey, Pepper, hello.”
“Hello, Ling, Miss Banes.” Pepper looked at Ling Xiao nodded solemnly and said, “Ling, can I tell you something alone, Let’s go for a walk together, I have to get some breath.”
“What’s wrong?” It was Colonel James Rhodes who said this, and even if it can be seen, Pepper is very upset tonight.
Seeing Roddy’s appearance, Pepper knew that there were some things that could not be said to Ling Xiao privately. She was helplessly sighed and said: “You all come with me.”
Three people followed Pepper walked into the lobby of the villa and couldn’t help being shocked when he saw the scene in front of him!
I saw Tony Stark wearing Iron Man Armor, staggering, pouring wine into his mouth constantly, a drunk appearance, and a group of beautiful women in front of him cheered and applauded, and Tony also He wanted to do something to please these beauties, but he really drank too much and couldn’t stand still.
“I don’t know what to do?” The expression on Pepper’s face was a little panic. The Tony Stark in front of him was simply not the person she knew.
“This is simply cracking a joke.” Colonel James Rhodes’s wide eyes, he couldn’t believe what oneself saw, took a deep breath, he said solemnly: “Enough, I want.. ..”
“No, don’t call anyone.” Pepper quickly grabbed Colonel Rhodes, and pleaded: “Let me fix him, let me fix him.”
“You get him done quickly, or you will replace me.” James Rhodes said angrily: “You know what, I just made a guarantee for him.”
“I know, I You know, don’t worry.” Pepper comforted Colonel Rhodes, and pulled Ling Xiao over to walk towards Tony.
At this time, Tony Stark, who was barely standing still, picked up the microphone and said to everyone: “You know what, the question I’m most often asked is: Tony, you wear this Iron Man Armor, how do I go to the toilet. It’s like this.”
Pepper stepped forward, snatched the microphone from Tony’s hand, with a smile on his face, and said to everyone: “This Guys love to party, don’t they?”
“Oh!” Seeing Pepper and Tony Stark standing together, everyone in the audience suddenly started to booze.
Tony also got a little excited, drunkenly saluted everyone, and then said to Pepper in a daze, “I love you!”
“Unbelievable, thank you, Tony, and thank you for organizing such a good night.” Despite some touches in my heart, Pepper still had to say, “But we should say good night, thank you for coming.”
“No, no, no.” Before everyone booed, Tony refused: “We haven’t cut the cake yet, we haven’t blown the candles..”
“You have lost self-control, Tony , Believe me, you should go to bed.” Pepper calmed Stark as softly as possible.
“Let everyone go home, it’s late. Okay?” Pepper’s tone was full of pleading.
“Since you say that, let’s listen to you.” Tony stuffed the wine glass in Pepper’s hand, took the microphone, and said to everyone, “Pepper Potts, she said Yes, the party is over. The party should be over a long time ago. But the next party will start in 15 minutes. If anyone doesn’t like it, the door is there.”
Speaking, Tony pointed his finger Stairs, I don’t know where I hit by mistake, with a bang, a laser cannon blasted out, blasting the glass beside Pepper to pieces.
