Chapter 291: Trouble!
Can you imagine lying on the bed with your lover resting, only to open your eyes and find a steel armor standing next to the bed ready to attack someone?
Pepper was terrified, and despite her strength and elite image of a strong woman, she was still a woman throughout.
"I... Sorry, Pepper, I'm sorry. I..."For the first time, Tony didn't choose to talk back after being scolded like this, but chose to apologize speechlessly.
"Tony, you're scaring me right now, I think we should be separated for a while, calm down, and think about our future when you're done with these things." Pepper looked very sad, even in the most dangerous time just now, she still did not leave Tony, and did not think of escaping alone, but Dio's words made her explode all the negative emotions accumulated during this time.
In fact, she still had one of the most poignant things she hadn't said, and that was that she wanted to ask Tony which was more important, she or those cold 'tin cans'!
She wanted to ask, not because she was making trouble, but because Tony had been so abnormal these days that he seemed to have no room for anything other than to continue to develop a new steel armor.
After officially dating Tony, Pepper never thought that she would one day be jealous of a bunch of iron shells, it was just ridiculous and funny!
Because she wasn't the kind of woman who was careful, because she still loved Tony deeply, and because she knew how important the Iron Armor really was to Tony, she didn't say anything that would hurt the feelings between them.
Although she didn't say it directly, it didn't mean that she wouldn't mind, this was her last chance to give Tony, if Tony still ignored her like this often in the future, she didn't know what kind of decision she would make that she regretted.
"No, Pepper, listen to me... Well, I'll admit that I've been a little out of the ordinary since the events in New York. Gods, aliens, other dimensions... And I'm just an ordinary person hiding in an iron shell, do you understand how I feel? The only reason why I haven't completely broken down yet is because you're still there for me! ”
"So I think all the time, it's really nice to have you by my side, I'm really lucky, I love you, Pepper, so don't do that, okay?"
It's the first time for Dio to see Tony's confession of such true feelings, although he is extremely embarrassed, but he still looks so romantic and touching, looking at the expression on Pepper's face at this time, it is not difficult to see how lethal this truth is, no wonder there are so many women around this guy when he is young, even if he breaks up after a night, he still can't stop the admiration of other women.
If only he had such a superb means, Dior actually began to be a little envious.
Pepper did seem to be moved, but she knew Tony's temperament, and most importantly, the question she couldn't tolerate the most, Tony never brought up.
So she said directly: "Tony, you put too much pressure on yourself, and you put too much pressure on me, every night you would rather deal with those machines than have a good rest with me, sometimes I wonder if I am really as unique as you say?" ”
Tony's answer was, "I can't sleep, maybe it's true that I'm putting too much pressure on myself, but I always wait until you fall asleep before I go to the studio to repair my armor." The threat is coming, and I must protect my most important treasure, and that is you! ”
"What about the machines?"
"It's the Iron Armor, they're part of my body, and when they come together, they're truly who I am." Tony said as if he was in a trance.
Originally, because of his sincere confession before, Dior thought that the two would get back together immediately, although it was a little numb, but when it was said in an extremely serious tone and expression, in the end all that was left would be moving.
But later, as soon as Pepper mentioned the issue of the steel armor, Tony immediately seemed to be a different person, and even with his high emotional intelligence, he was able to say the last sentence, which was unbelievable!
Which is more important, one is a treasure that I must protect, or one is a part of who I am?
Go without saying!
At this moment, Dio really felt that Tony seemed to be crazy, he was a mentally abnormal madman!
Sure enough, after getting Tony's answer, the originally warm atmosphere took a sharp turn, and the disappointment in Pepper's eyes almost overflowed.
She stepped forward and hugged Tony's head, letting her head rest on her arms, and then seemed to have made a decision, "Tony, for the first time since I have known you for so long, I now have the idea that maybe we are not suitable to be together, even if there are so many women around you, I can take it to heart, it's not that I'm really that generous, it's that I know that those women are just passers-by in your life, they can't be by your side for a lifetime, so I have never had any worries because of them." ”
"But now I realize that I have ignored my real 'love rival', some people and even me may not be able to accompany you for a lifetime, but these iron shells that you regard as a part of your body can, as long as you need them, they will always be by your side, never abandon, give you a sense of security, and accompany you in everything."
"So this matter is too simple for me to think, I will resign as soon as possible, and during the time I am away, I hope you can regain your strength, because in my heart, both Tony Stark and Iron Man are the most powerful people."
When Pepper let go of him and limped away, Tony just stared a little blankly, he had opened his mouth countless times to keep it, but his usual good speech seemed to be frozen at this time, and he couldn't even say a word.
"I won't be on your side this time, by the way, a friendly reminder to you, this woman and Killian are actually in the same group, believe it or not."
After throwing this sentence, Dior quickly chased after him.
Hearing this, Tony turned his head a little stiffly to look at the woman who suddenly came to the door today, and this woman was flustered for a moment, and immediately sorted out her expression after reacting, and waved her hand again and again, "How is it possible, I came here to persuade you to go to a safe place, and I almost died here just now!" How could I be in the league with that group of terrorists! ”
It's very convincing, especially since the gang just now doesn't mean to show mercy.
But......
