Admiral in the Marvel Universe

Chapter 8 Parents blocking the way

~~~~

Rugby field, in a dark corner.

Chris was lying on the ground with a bruised face, while Gwen, holding a bloody baton in her hand, looked down at him with a sullen face.

“Damn… Isn’t what happened yesterday… over!?” Chris gasped, “What the hell do you want to do?”

“Yesterday’s affair is over?” Gwen slammed a stick to his throat and sneered: “You secretly took revenge, so you think it’s over, right?”

“What are you talking about… I don’t understand…” Chris’s bruised face was full of confusion. He could understand every word, but when put together, he couldn’t understand.

Gwen raised her foot and stepped on Chris’s chest: “Are you trying to say that the injury on Cao’s head has nothing to do with you?”

“That Huang… Oriental was injured?” Chris was stunned and at a loss.

“You don’t know?” Gwen was equally stunned, Chris’s expression didn’t seem to be fake, but immediately, she said coldly again: “Don’t pretend in front of me! If you didn’t do it, who else could!”

“Damn it, it’s none of my business if he’s injured!” Chris roared, his nose still sore:

“I haven’t seen him since yesterday, okay!”

Seeing the aggrieved look on his face, Gwen felt a little dazed in her heart, and her originally tough aura suddenly softened.

‘Is it my fault? I should test Cao’s argument.’

“Bastard! Please find out the facts before hitting someone!” Chris roared furiously: “New York is so big and there are so many people, why do you think I hit it!”

Seeing this, Gwen took a step back subconsciously. It seems that she really found the wrong person?

But immediately, she shouted angrily: “Damn Texan, what are you shouting!”

“If you didn’t beat him yesterday, you didn’t beat him today, you definitely won’t beat him tomorrow!”

Chris: “…”

Looking at Gwen’s rake, Chris sighed deeply. New York is so dangerous. He was beaten three times in two days. To be honest, he misses Texas.

“You must have been thinking about how to get revenge on us. I tell you, don’t let me see you again, or I will beat you once!”

Gwen threatened viciously, and then walked away, but… the footsteps were a little flustered, giving people a feeling of fleeing.

Chris pursed his lips and wanted to cry, but he couldn’t cry. Why did he become obsessed with this woman yesterday?

In an unoccupied corner, Gwen covered her face, her crystal lovely earlobes were flushed, and she was too embarrassed.

But fortunately, the problem is not big, as long as he doesn’t say it, no one will know, Gwen patted her cheek, took a deep breath, and began to adjust her mood.

After a while, the blush faded, and Gwen thought that nothing had happened, and she returned to her seat.

However, good things stay in the dark while bad things travel a thousand miles. During class, Cao Gui heard the “news” of Chris’ bruised nose from others.

Thinking of the time when Gwen disappeared before class, he couldn’t help but look at her with a strange face.

Good guy, as expected of you, Spider-Woman!

“What are you looking at? Never seen a beautiful woman!?” Gwen said angrily.

Cao Gui smiled and ran to Gwen: “Gwen, do you have time tonight? How about having a meal together?”

Saying that, Cao Gui lifted his hair and revealed his bandages: “How about I talk to you about this? You will definitely be interested.”

“Nonsense, I’m not interested in your business.” Gwen blushed slightly: “There is time, but is this a date?”

“It’s not a date, just a private chat.”

Cao Gui wisely denied it. Judging from Gwen’s expression, if he said the date, the matter would fail 100%.

“Just for dinner?”

“Just for dinner.”

“Just to chat?”

“Of course, just chatting.”

Gwen felt a little relieved. What she was most afraid of was that Cao Gui used this incident to stalk her.

Although she taught Chris a lesson, it was more out of her gratitude and righteous indignation yesterday.

She and Cao Gui have only known each other for two days, dating or something, it’s really too fast.

“Okay, no problem,” Gwen smiled.

The class bell rang again and the last class started, but Gwen, who’s a scholar, was a little distracted in class and her thoughts were flying.

She felt her attitude towards Cao Gui was not very good, making her a bit guilty, but at the same time, she feels it’s right for her to keep a distance at this stage, and she is right.

The class ended in Gwen’s tangled thoughts like this, the bell rang signifying the end of class, and the two walked out of school together side by side.

“Gwen, is there anything you want to eat?”

“Well…actually, I’m not a picky eater.”

“How is Chinese food?”

“Okay, I’ve never eaten it before. I heard that General Tso’s chicken is delicious.”

Cao Gui’s face is embarrassed, General Tso’s chicken? The Chinese said they had never heard of it.

However, just as the two were happily discussing, a black Chevrolet car stopped in front of the two, and the window was pulled down, revealing the face of a handsome middle-aged white man.

“Dad?” Gwen was surprised. “Why are you here?”

“Your mother made some seafood and asked me to pick you up after I get off work early.” George Stacy said, and then turned his attention to Cao Gui: “Who is this?”

“Hello, Mr. Stacey, my name is Cao Gui, and I’m Gwen’s classmate.”

“Oh, so that’s it, hello, Gwen just transferred over and became friends with you. Thank you for being so kind to my daughter.”

Cao Gui scratched his face, what he said was true, but… why does he feel he has bad intentions for him.

On the other hand, Gwen looked at the two of them with a headache. His father came to pick him up in person. It was not appropriate not to go back.

Seeing Gwen’s tangled appearance, Cao Gui immediately understood her embarrassing situation.

In fact, this situation is easy to solve, as long as Mr. Stacy says, “Come to our house for dinner”.

But obviously, the other party didn’t mean this, and he couldn’t ignore Gwen in such an embarrassing situation, so he had to come by himself.

Under his trousers pocket, Cao Gui swiped his finger on the screen of his mobile phone, and after a while, the mobile phone rang.

Cao Gui responded with an apologetic smile to the father and daughter, then picked up the phone and pretended to make a call.

Well, after a while, he said to Gwen: “I’m sorry, Gwen, I suddenly have something to deal with, and I may have to miss an appointment.”

Gwen forced a smile: “It doesn’t matter, let’s deal with your business first.”

“I’m sorry, Gwen.”

“It’s okay, Cao, see you tomorrow.”

“See you tomorrow.”

“Goodbye, Mr. Stacy.”

“Well, this classmate, goodbye.”

Cao Gui waved his hand and walked into the distance, while Gwen, who got into his father’s car angrily, didn’t speak with a cold face the whole time.

She knew this was the best way to deal with him. If it wasn’t for her father or he came a little later, this wouldn’t have happened.

When they got home, their mother Helen happily greeted the two of them to sit down and prepare to eat seafood, but saw her daughter’s unhappy look on her face.

“Huh? Did something happen?”

Helen was a little surprised. In the past, the relationship between father and daughter was better than the relationship between mother-and-daughter and husband-and-wife.

“Uh… this…” George shrugged, “Maybe I’m a bit harsh towards her classmate.”

“Really?” Helen was surprised: “Gwen, can you tell me, after you transferred schools, it seems that you haven’t told us about your classmates.”

Gwen sighed and briefly talked about how Cao Gui helped her deal with the Texans, and of course, concealed the matter of hitting people by herself today.

“It turns out that I blamed him.” George said, subconsciously ignoring his daughter’s good fighting power. In his eyes, his daughter is always weak and easily bullied.

“But Gwen, I don’t think you can fall in love now. Although he has helped you, after all, you have known each other for a short time, you should be more vigilant.”

Gwen rolled her eyes, focusing on the lobster in front of him, ignoring her noisy father.

“Well… I will find time to have dinner with him and I’ll thank him for helping my daughter.” George added insincerely.

As for when he has time, don’t ask, just because he is busy with work.

North Bergen suburb, Textile Mill 17.

Several killers of the Brotherhood gathered around.

Sloan lifted the white cloth covering the side, revealing a corpse, and said slowly: “I’m sorry, gentlemen, another comrade in arms was killed by a traitor.”

Everyone looked at Mr. X with a big brain hole, and his face was extremely gloomy. Maybe in a few days, the one lying here may be replaced by one of them.

“Leader, we have to do something.” The gunsmith said solemnly, “We can’t let the cross kill like this again.”

“I know, that’s why I called you here.” Sloan nodded and took out a photo of a young man in a blue coat: “Firefox, go and bring him back.”

“Repairers, gunsmiths, butchers, get ready and get ready to train rookies.”

“Yes, chief!”

But the butcher frowned slightly. In his hand, there is still a small FBI whose fate has not yet been decided since there are so many things to do.

On the other side, Cao Gui received various items from the store downstairs and was about to start a day of cultivation.

As for Gwen and his father, Cao Gui didn’t care too much. Originally, according to the development, the relationship between him and Gwen would go further.

But the appearance of Director Stacey interrupted this development, pinching off the signs that had just emerged between the two.

The relationship between him and Gwen has become deep.

His friendship with her has become a little deep, more than ordinary friends but less than lovers, the relationship has not accumulated to that level yet.

Cao Gui didn’t care much about this. He had time to break this deadlock. As for now, cultivation is still important.

The next day, Cao Gui came to the school. As he expected, the relationship between the two became dull. Except for studies, there was no more communication between the two.

As time passed, Cao Gui entered a simple and fulfilling life, studying during the day and practicing at night.

A week later, he has mastered the use of paper art skillfully, but the problem is that he must consciously control it, and he cannot achieve the state he wants.

The reason why he can cultivate so fast is attributed to the information inputted into his brain by the system.

The experiences include many masters’ cultivation experience, such as CP9’s Owl, Bruno, and Lucci. The experience of these people is very useful to him.

In the second week of his practice, he used paper art more and more times. Although he was still exhausted, if he controlled it rhythmically, it should be able to be used for battle once.

A month later, he had basically mastered the martial art, paper art.

Except for the lack of practical experience and the inability to change the shape of his body, other things were no longer a problem.
