Chapter 17

"Ah!" Skye, who was lost in passion, let out a soft cry.

She only then remembered they were still on the street and quickly got off Ye Li.

In the distance.

A blonde beauty who was observing frowned.

Skye, also known as Daisy Johnson, who S.H.I.E.L.D. considered to have great potential, was actually teased by a man to this extent.

And she remembered that in the data, this lazy painter named Ye Li had more than one girl with a deep relationship... ===== CHAPTER 41 =====

"Skye, your program has finished loading." Ye Li pointed to the high-tech laptop on the table.

He now also had hacker skills and could see that the configuration of Skye's laptop should be very high.

"It's finished loading!" Skye was happy to see the progress bar on the screen.

However, she scanned the surrounding environment and felt it wasn't very safe here, so she put the computer away first.

Hmm... sneaky, what kind of business is she doing... Although Ye Li only glanced at the screen roughly, judging from the skills copied from the system, Skye's hacker technology was very superb. Being able to make her so happy, she probably hacked into the database of some secret department.

Scattering the remaining breadcrumbs to the swans fighting for food, Ye Li clapped his hands, "Let's leave here first, the wind tells me this place has been watched."

"Wind?"

Skye thought Ye Li had some strange intuition, picked up the computer bag, and smiled, "Do artists all talk like this?"

She didn't think anyone would watch her just because she had joined the "Rising Rising Rising Tide" organization.

Otherwise, what kind of department would it be to have such high efficiency.

"Alright, great artist, don't be suspicious."

She grabbed Ye Li's arm, "Let's go~ take me to visit your art exhibition."

"There's nothing to visit there, I have a better place~"

Ye Li smiled mysteriously, "That's where I keep my best works."

Manhattan District, Central Park.

In the North Building not far across from Stark Tower.

"Sir."

The security personnel greeted Ye Li, then operated on a tablet and handed it over, "This requires your unlock."

Ye Li took the tablet, which showed a floor that was not open to the public.

After entering some decryption information, Ye Li took Skye up the elevator to this floor.

"Wow~! My God, Li, are these all your works?"

Skye exclaimed after getting out of the elevator.

This floor was filled with various insurance glass cabinets, containing paintings of various sizes and styles, and even some Eastern ink works.

Even as an outsider who didn't know much about the market, she could see that these paintings were definitely a grade higher than those exhibited at the art exhibition.

"Some are my works, some are collected from other masters."

Ye Li came to a metal wall and pressed his palm.

The wall pushed open to both sides, revealing a portrait more than a person tall inside.

In the painting, there was a heroic war goddess, looking lifelike.

Skye couldn't help but step forward and gently stroke the glass framing her, "What a masterpiece... What's her name?"

Ye Li smiled, "《Goddess Athena》, one of my famous works."

"Athena, huh."

Skye, who was interested in extraordinary things, had her thoughts jump away, "Li, do you think gods, like those in Greek mythology and Norse mythology, exist?"

"I think so-called gods are just more advanced creatures, like aliens or something."

Ye Li calculated the time; it shouldn't be long before Thor's Mjolnir fell down.

"Li, you sound like a materialist, even though artists should be more romantic."

"Can't a materialist be romantic?"

Ye Li pushed with his hand, and 《Goddess Athena》 was pushed away, "If you want to find a secret place to operate your computer, this place is quite good."

Inside was a spacious space where artistic atmosphere and romantic feeling intertwined, with various fresh textured wooden furniture. In the corner of the room, brightly colored pigments and various painting tools looked like they hadn't been used for a while.

He pressed a switch, and the connected window shades automatically pulled open. Behind the one-way floor-to-ceiling windows, the scenery of New York was in full view.

"There's another room inside, it's really surprising."

Skye was amazed and also full of admiration—priceless paintings, Li actually used them as doors.

There was a special kind of extravagance.

"Few people know, I've only brought Gwen and Jessica here."

Ye Li invited, "Now you have to be added, come in with me, little assistant."

Below the building.

A figure with long golden hair followed.

Barbara checked the surveillance of Ye Li and the other two along the way and found no useful information, "Maybe I shouldn't have followed them, but gone directly to investigate the Ghost Spider club."

She felt that following these two people, she could only eat some dog food.

Also, why was the wind unexpectedly strong today?

She had checked the weather data before the operation.

"Found you."

Ye Li, who was feeling with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.

He had already locked onto the person tracking him through airflow sensing.

It seems he needs to teach her a lesson. ===== CHAPTER 42 =====

Boom!

The sky above the North Building suddenly became overcast, and for a time, there was a storm, and thunder roared.

And it seemed to cover only one area.

Before Barbara could react, she was instantly drenched by the sudden heavy rain.

Golden hair stuck to her face, and the casual clothes she wore for the operation stuck to her body, fully revealing her graceful figure.

If it weren't for the thin combat suit hidden inside, it would probably be even more alluring.

Unfortunately, no one appreciated this beautiful scenery.

"Damn it!"

She quickly pulled out a small handle-like object.

The small handle quickly extended and opened, turning into a black umbrella.

This thing was a little gadget developed by S.H.I.E.L.D. researchers, and the umbrella surface even had bulletproof functions.

"Have those guys become so incompetent that even weather data can be wrong?"

After blocking the rain, Barbara was very annoyed.

But before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she heard thunder roaring above her head.

Looking up, the clouds faintly revealed lightning, and small electric tongues flickered.

She had an ominous premonition...

Would she be struck by lightning too?

Crackle!

Just the next moment, a small lightning bolt tore through the sky and struck down in an instant.

Looking at the scorched mark beside her feet.

Barbara was dumbfounded.

"What!?"

"Teacher~ why are you laughing so happily?"

Skye had taken off her long shirt, wearing only a cool tank top and panties, pressing a pillow, lying on the big bed operating the laptop, in short, a very incorrect typing posture.

"Thought of some happy things."

Ye Li, leaning against the head of the bed, held a small board and used a sketching pencil to draw something casually. ===== CHAPTER 43 =====
