Four cups of hot coffee were placed in front of everyone, and Hit-Girl was holding a cup of hot chocolate in her hand.
Aside from Hit-Girl Mindy, the other four didn't touch the drinks in front of them. The atmosphere was very awkward.
"I say, everyone, can you all relax a little?" Li Jie picked up his cup of coffee and tried to break the atmosphere.
"How about I tell a joke about coffee first …" Peter tried to tell a joke to lighten the atmosphere, but it seemed that no one wanted to listen. "Okay, I think we should talk about it next time."
"Frank, can you calmly tell us why you beat up Damon? Because he will be our partner in the future. "Li Jie tried to get the two silent men to talk.
"The reason is very simple. It's because of Ming Di." Thank God, although Frank still had a poker face, he was finally willing to speak.
"Because of Mindy?" "Yes, how old is Mindy this year? Is she even twelve? I don't think so, "Frank said.
"I'll be twelve on Christmas!" Hit-Girl protested in dissatisfaction.
"Okay, I'll pretend you're twelve, kid. Do you know, I have a daughter the same age as you? If there are no accidents, this Halloween will be the day she turns twelve. "
Frank spoke to Mindy in a very gentle tone, without the usual coldness.
"But those gangsters took away her life! I will never see my daughter again. She should have grown up happily at an innocent age, but … but I won't be able to see her anymore. "
Li Jie and Peter had never seen Frank like this. The iron man showed his weak side at this moment.
Frank covered his face with his hands, his tone was filled with deep sorrow.
"Oh, boss, boss, don't be like this." Spider-man Peter patted Frank's back, trying to comfort him.
Li Jie also patted Frank's shoulder, trying to give him some strength.
"I'm sorry, Frank. I didn't know you had such an experience." Damon finally understood why Frank wanted to beat him up.
"You should keep Ming Di away from those dangers, or you'll lose her one day! At that time, I believe that you will end your life in guilt! "Frank said to Damon as his mood improved a little.
"We shouldn't put children in danger. They should be protected until they have the ability to fly."
"I don't agree with you on that, Frank. Although it's hurtful to say this, you're so skilled. If you had trained your daughter at that time, perhaps she wouldn't have encountered those gangsters. "
Damon didn't fully agree with Frank's words, so he said.
"This world is very dangerous. That's why we need to let our children grow up faster and face the wind and rain. We need to let them know the ugliness and cruelty of reality."
Damon's words and the way he educated Hit-Girl was a kind of Spartan education. It was cruel and bloody.
"So this is the reason why you let Ming Di kill people?! It doesn't matter if the people she killed deserved to die or not, you shouldn't let her do these things! "Frank was obviously angered by Damon's words and retorted.
"At her age, she should be in school, playing with other kids her age. Then, she should grow up healthily, meet a good guy, fall in love, and get married. As a father, it's my responsibility to protect her from these hardships! "
Hit-Girl couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Frank's words. She even stuck out her tongue and made a funny face. She couldn't imagine how boring that kind of life was.
"Okay. So, Mr. Frank, did you do it? Didn't your daughter still get killed?! So what if you're so strong? So what if you can avenge your daughter? She's dead! "
"We can't protect our children forever! Ming Di isn't an ordinary child. She's gifted. She shouldn't return to an ordinary life! I believe that one day, even if I die, Ming Di will still be alive because she's stronger than me! This is the only thing I can teach her as a father! "
Damon's words obviously angered Frank. Frank looked like he was about to rush up and fight with Damon.
Fortunately, Li Jie and Peter were prepared, and the two separated before they could get together.
"Gentlemen, calm down. Calm down. Don't fight in front of the children, okay? "Peter dragged Frank and said.
Of course, Hit-Girl didn't think that there was anything wrong with fighting in front of her. She had already pulled out her butterfly knife. If Frank dared to go up and hit her father, she would definitely stab Frank with the knife.
"Calm down, calm down!" Li Jie forcefully pushed the two back to their seats.
"What both of you said makes sense because you're both fathers. I believe there aren't many fathers who would harm their daughters. "
"What Frank said makes sense. We shouldn't put Ming Di in danger all the time. It's not safe for her. But what Damon said also makes sense. This world is really dangerous. If possible, it's important to have the ability to protect yourself as soon as possible. "
Li Jie was trying to smooth things over and support both sides.
"I have an opinion, gentlemen. Now, Damon, you're on our side, so you don't have to worry about the problem of helpers. We should be stronger than Hit-Girl. So, Hit-Girl doesn't need to do dangerous work anymore. "
"At the same time, Hit-Girl Ming Di. As you said, she's a very talented child. We can train her together. I believe it'll be better than training her alone. "
"But it can only be training. She can't participate in any action. She should go to school and get to know some friends of the same age. Until she becomes an adult and has the ability to make her own decisions. Then, she can choose her own life freely. You or someone else shouldn't help her choose. "
"Gentlemen, what do you think of this?" Li Jie made a suggestion that was somewhat feasible.
"Hey! Nightcrawler, you haven't asked if I agree to it yet! " Hit-Girl Ming Di was a girl with strong autonomy. She didn't want to go to school or anything. It was too boring.
"I think it's a good idea," Frank said. "Damon, if you insist on your way of education, I'm afraid I can only let you stay here for now and find someone better to adopt Mindy."
Big Old Father glared at Frank, but he still agreed. "I think it's fine."
"By the way, Ming Di, which school do you study at?" Spider-man Peter comforted Hit-Girl and asked her.
"Ha ~ I never go to school!" Ming Di said indifferently.
As soon as she said that, Frank, who had already calmed down, was on the verge of going berserk again.
Li Jie's cheeks were hurting now. It was really scary to have a daughter complex.
At New York International Airport, Miss Peber, the senior administrative assistant of Stark Industries, and Obedia, the senior CEO of the company, were waiting for the return of an important person.
The rear hatch of the C130 opened, and Tony Stark stepped onto the land he was familiar with with a confident smile. Behind him was Dr. Ethan.
Tony decided that it was time to bring something different to the world.
