Chapter 278

"Stark!"

Tony was just waiting leisurely for the club's helpers when he suddenly heard a slightly familiar angry shout.

Then his vision blurred, as if a flash of silver light passed by—

Bang!~

Pietro punched him in the face, knocking him straight to the ground.

"Hey! Pietro! Are you crazy?" Tony cursed while holding his face after seeing who it was.

"Heh heh~"

Pietro gripped his left wrist with his right hand, twisted his fist, and said, "Did you think I would forget to take revenge on you? I've wanted to do this for a long time, and today I finally found the opportunity!"

[This is someone sent to help... or to cause trouble...] Tony was speechless at Ye Li.

"Still dwelling on those old things?"

Tony defended, "I already said, you should go find the person who used the weapons, I don't know how those Stark weapons were circulated..."

"I think you really should reflect on yourself, Stark."

Seeing Seeing Natasha, however, tore down his defense at this time and said,

"Winter Soldier Bucky Barnes was trained and hypnotized into a cold-blooded killer, isn't he actually just a weapon in someone else's hands?

But don't you still hold a grudge against this weapon that killed your parents and view him as an enemy?

And regarding the questioning from Pietro and his sister, you chose to avoid it... do you really see yourself clearly? Iron Man."

"I..."

Tony's expression suddenly went blank... as if he had been awakened by her words...

"That's right... that's indeed the case..."

Tony muttered to himself as if he had suddenly realized, "I still... I... I really..."

He didn't know what he was thinking, but after a dozen seconds, he looked at Pietro and apologized sincerely.

"Sorry... I was indeed avoiding this matter before... I admit, I have a big problem with your matter..."

Seeing Seeing Natasha turned her head away again... feeling helpless...

The reason she went to wake Stark up was to see if Stark would forgive Bucky Barnes, thereby letting Captain America return to the Avengers, and perhaps adding a Winter Soldier.

But Stark's words sounded like he finally recognized his mistake... but in fact, he would rather admit the problem caused to the Maximoffs than forgive Bucky Barnes...

But after all, it was the hatred of killing his father and mother, so this is human nature.

Seeing Seeing Natasha could only shake her head helplessly, not forcing it.

And Pietro faced Tony's apology with a cold smile, "Heh~ do you think that by apologizing, my sister and I will forgive you?"

Tony straightened his expression and said, "That mature beauty on my private jet last time, I think you seem to like her, I can introduce you!"

"Heh~"

Pietro still gave a disdainful smile, "For the sake of my brother-in-law, I won't argue with you this time... let's talk about it first, what is the specific target of this mission?"

"..."

Seeing Seeing Natasha and Johnny, who came with Pietro, were speechless upon hearing this...

Are you sure it's for the sake of your brother-in-law? I don't even want to expose you...

And in the bathroom on the other side.

Ye Li was once again acting as a plumber, taking on the work of clearing the pipes—

"You didn't wash very clean either."

Ye Li poked the drain with his finger and said, "There's still so much residue..."

"Isn't it because you clogged it~"

Gamora held onto the bathtub tightly with one hand and guided his hand with the other, "Why don't you hurry up and use a stick to help me clear it..."

"I'm afraid it'll get more clogged the more I clear it..."

Ye Li had a lot of experience in clearing drains and suggested, "Better to just use my hand."

"That works too..."

Gamora reciprocated, "You haven't cleaned your place either, I'll help you clean it up later~"

Ye Li: "Then I'll trouble you."

Gamora: "No problem, we'll probably be neighbors across the room from now on, just helping each other."

Saying this.

Gamora hooked her finger, found a good angle, and leaned her head over to help clean up as well.

Her fingertips nimbly flicked...

Dark green hair rose and fell...

As the two helped each other.

The sound of two streams of water in the bathroom echoed incessantly.

After a long while, the cleaning work was mostly finished.

Ye Li wrapped his arms around Gamora’s slightly tired shoulders and said, "Were you so anxious to contact me earlier because you were angry that I left too quickly?"

"Huh?"

Gamora tilted her head slightly and denied it, "No... but when you hung up the phone and said you’d be back right away, I thought you were just brushing me off... I didn't expect you to actually rush back so soon~"

Speaking of this.

A happy expression appeared in Gamora’s emerald eyes, and she felt even more delighted inside... feeling that she was valued by Ye Li...

Originally, she had been worried that her skin color would lead to discrimination from him...

Ye Li didn't expect that he had misunderstood, so he asked, "Then why did you contact me...?"

"Ah! Right!"

Reminded by his question, Gamora remembered something and said, "I contacted you because Quill was captured by the Ravagers, and he’s probably about to be slaughtered now! Rocket told me to notify you immediately!"

Ye Li looked confused, "?? Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"I wanted to be intimate with you for a moment and forgot..." Gamora said, feeling a bit embarrassed...

Ye Li was speechless...

However.

Yondu shouldn't kill Star-Lord, so there really was no need to be too anxious...

"Forget it... since it's already dragged on for so long, if he were going to die, he would have died already... let him wait a little longer."

Ye Li released Gamora, stood up, wrapped her in a set of Fate Spider-Silk clothing, and said, "This clothing has many uses; you should carefully feel and explore it... I'll take you to see my residence later, and you can pick a room to stay in there."

"Really?~"

Gamora was very happy to hear Ye Li say this—he really did treat her as his woman...

Originally... she had thought it would only be a fleeting romance and had prepared for the worst in her heart... she didn't expect the result to be unexpectedly good.

In this way, her plan to hold onto Ye Li’s thigh to deal with Thanos had a much better chance of being realized!

"En... but if I live at your place... wouldn't it be inconvenient to help you manage Knowhere?"

Gamora fumbled through her words, acting a bit coy, "...I still hope to be able to help you~"

"It's fine, this clothing has space-jumping capabilities; you can travel freely between Knowhere and my spaceship."
