Chapter Seventy-Four: The Banquet
The third Tony Stark-Subsidized Soldiers' Family Fund Gala was held at Disney Concert Hall, and Ling Xiao smiled helplessly when he learned that Michaela Baines was about to attend such a party.
Although Ling Xiao is bent on avoiding Tony Stark, he always bumps into him inexplicably.
"What are you thinking?" Seeing that Ling Xiao's gaze was a little originative, Michaela Baines stretched out her hand and shook it in front of Ling Xiao.
"Nothing!" Ling Xiao smiled slightly, turned to look at Michaela Baines, and whispered, "Do you think Tony Stark himself will appear tonight?" ”
Tonight, Michaela Bain wore a red bandeau evening gown, and the deep ravines attracted the attention of many people.
"Probably not." Michaela took Ling Xiao's arm and whispered, "Tony Stark hasn't been seen since that press conference, and there is news that he has been bedridden for weeks due to trauma syndrome. ”
"That's good." Ling Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief slightly, Tony Stark, who returned from Iraq, was like a big magnet, as long as there was a place where he appeared, all kinds of accidents were always continuous, and it was always good to be able to avoid them.
"By the way, why are you looking for me, you should have a lot of male companions, right?" After speaking, Ling Xiao had already walked on the red carpet with Michaela.
"I'm here to try my luck, maybe I'll run into Tony Stark, maybe I'll have an affair." Michaela pretended to be very intimate and said in Ling Xiao's ear, but her words made Ling Xiao feel uncomfortable for a while.
"Didn't you say Tony Stark wouldn't show up?" Ling Xiao turned to look at Michaela in some surprise, and when he didn't pay attention, a pair of big murder weapons from the other party rubbed vigorously on his arms.
Michaela glanced at Ling Xiao with an ambiguous face, stroked her long hair, and then whispered: "I have studied Tony Stark for a long time, he is a different person from most people, and it can even be said that it is the opposite, the more we say that he is impossible, the more he will appear." Ling Xiao, let's make a bet. ”
"Don't bet." Ling Xiao shook his head vigorously and said, "You say so, Tony Stark can't really show up." ”
"Not to bet on that." Michaela rubbed lightly against Ling Xiao and whispered in his ear, "Let's bet on whether I can climb into Tony Stark's bed tonight, and if I win, you give me a free month's care." ”
"And what if I win?" Ling Xiao looked at Michaela with amusement, how could he lose this kind of gamble, if it was before Stark didn't go to Iraq, Tony Stark was like a stallion, but now, after experiencing life and death, is Stark still the Stark before?
"You won?" Michaela raised her head, raised her eyebrows, looked at Ling Xiao with an ambiguous expression and said, "If you win, how about I accompany you for a month?" ”
"It's not good, forget it." Ling Xiao shook his head lightly and said, "We are not people of the same world, if I win, you owe me a favor at that time." ”
"Not good!" Michaela shook her head and said calmly: "I owe you a favor, it's more troublesome than me being with you for a month." ”
"Forget it, there's not much point in our bet." Ling Xiao looked at the steps under his feet and said to Michaela, "Be careful of the steps. ”
The red carpet was a bit long, and Michaela Baines walked very slowly, and after talking for a long time, the two of them just walked to the bottom of the steps. There have been reporters taking pictures just now, and Ling Xiao has competently played the role of a shield.
Those reporters are all human spirits, so they can naturally see that Ling Xiao has nothing to do with Michaela, this person is not familiar at all, and it is not easy to create some sensational news.
At this time, suddenly there was a commotion in the distance, and Ling Xiao and Michaela Baines subconsciously stopped and looked back.
I saw a silver high-end sports car parked on the edge of the red carpet not far away, and Tony Stark walked down in the surprised eyes of everyone.
"Looks like you guessed right." Ling Xiao whispered in Michaela's ear, and at this time everyone stopped and looked back at Stark.
"Huh!" Michaela smiled proudly, then pressed Ling Xiao's cheek and said, "Look over there." ”
Ling Xiao followed Michaela's finger and looked at her, she was referring to Obadith Stein, who was being interviewed, and he was not far from the two of them.
"Weapons manufacturing is only a small part of Stark Industries......" Obadiah Stein, who was speaking, suddenly felt his voice being drowned out by a scream, and he looked back to see Tony Stark walking on the red carpet, while several actresses were screaming at Tony on the side.
"Let's go, don't look at those sluts!" Michaela pulled the sky and walked into the hall with a cold face.
"Oh!" Ling Xiao replied casually, and as he walked, he paid attention to Tony Stark, who quickly walked to Obadith Stein's side.
"If I don't come to my own banquet, what kind of world is this!" Stark raised his eyebrows and looked at Obadistein with a wave of dissatisfaction, this foundation had his Tony Stark's name on it, but Obadistein didn't even invite him.
"Hahaha!" Obadichi directly ignored Stark's dissatisfaction, laughed and said, "Look at you, it's a surprise that you can come!" ”
Tony gritted his teeth and said with a buffy face: "I won't bother you, you can be interviewed, and we'll see you later." ”
At this time, Obadiah Stan was naturally not good at playing haha, he turned around and called Stark, and said in a deep voice: "Listen, we have to take our time, okay, I've leveled the board, and everything is going according to plan." ”
Hearing Obadiah Stan say this, Tony Stark breathed a sigh of relief and said apologetically, "I'm sorry! I've just been at home for too long, we'll talk later. ”
Michaela Baines, as a popular beauty star, naturally had many people come up to talk to her, and Ling Xiao stopped them one by one competently, while Baines's eyes kept falling on Tony Stark who walked into the hall.
"Don't look, someone's coming!" Ling Xiao pulled the arm of Michaela Baines, looked at the oncoming Pepper, bowed with a smile, and said, "Hello, Miss Potts." ”
"Hello, may I ask who you are?" Pepper wore a blue V-shaped backless evening dress tonight, which perfectly showed off her figure. Pepper looked at Michaela Baines standing beside Ling Xiao in some surprise, it was obvious that she was here to find Michaela Baines, and Ling Xiao just didn't know where passers-by appeared.
"Mr. Ling Xiao is my beautician, and he came with me." Michaela Baines put away the embarrassment on her face and said to Pepper with a smile: "Hello, Miss Potts, is there something wrong with me?" ”
"Hmm!" Pepper glanced at Ling Xiao, who had already walked away, and asked in a low voice, "I heard that you recently met a very powerful masseuse." ”
"I see!" Before Pepper finished speaking, Michaela Baines understood what she meant, this is another woman who heard that she has a special channel to become young and beautiful without plastic surgery, and many people have come to inquire about this matter for a while, but I didn't expect Tony Stark's personal female secretary to come over.
Suddenly, Michaela Baines looked at Pepper's eyes and became vigilant, Pepper, as Stark's female secretary, had never had an affair between her and Stark, but this beautiful woman now came to the door, could it be said that she was also moved.
