Li Jie is Nightcrawler? Katie could hardly believe it. She pointed at Li Jie and opened her mouth, unable to say anything for a long time. Just like that, he kept pointing.
Until Li Jie said, "What are you trying to say by pointing at me with your finger?"
Only then did Katie come back to her senses. "Wait, my mind is a little messy right now. Are you Jason Lee or Nightcrawler? "
Li Jie shrugged. "I'm both Nightcrawler and Jason Li. They're both me. Just like Tony Stark, who was both the Iron Man and the super-rich. I'm just not as high-profile as he is. I don't want to reveal my identity. That would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. "
Katie was still in shock. "But you've exposed yourself to me now?"
Li Jie continued to spread his hands. "Because I think you're a trustworthy companion. I trust that you will not reveal my identity to the public. I believe in you. I always believe in you. "
"So you're suggesting I get those X-Men teams, right? And those other things. " Katie had mixed feelings. "I'm so stupid. I didn't notice your disguise."
Li Jie smiled. "It's not that you're stupid, it's just that I'm too good at pretending. Perhaps I am very, very talented in this aspect. Don't worry too much about it. Many people don't know about it. "
Katie looked at Li Jie and smiled. "Although you seem to be comforting me. But I have to say, your skin is really thick. Is this really okay? "
Li Jie pulled back his hood and revealed his face with a smile. "There are two important things you need to learn in life. Once you learn these two things, your life will be great."
"What is it?" Katie was curious.
Li Jie said seriously, "Praise and self-praise." Katy couldn't help but laugh. "You're really thick-skinned. I just realized how thick-skinned you are today. "
"That's not shamelessness. It's the truth," Li Jie said to Katie. "Praise and affirm others. To build confidence in others, to bring warmth and faith to others, this is the effect of praise. "
Katie asked with interest, "What about self-praise?"
"The understanding of self-praise is even simpler. The world was so tired every day. Just like you, every day when you open your eyes, you think, 'Oh my god! There were still so many things to do. I have to attend meetings, deal with state affairs, and clean the poop of the lazy dog at home.] Just thinking about it makes me want to break down, especially when it comes to shoveling shit. "Li Jie's words made Katie unable to hold back her laughter.
"That's why you need to praise yourself every day. For example, he encouraged himself in front of the mirror and hypnotized himself that he was the best, the most perfect, and the most impeccable person in the world. Drink a cup of chicken soup for the soul every morning to keep yourself warm all day, "Katie interrupted before Li Jie could finish his sentence.
Katie asked, "Do you do this every day? Do you hypnotize yourself? "
Li Jie shrugged. "Occasionally. Actually, I don't really need to hypnotize myself. Because I'm really the best, the most perfect, and the most impeccable person. I don't think you'll ever meet another person who's as outstanding as me. "
Katie was already laughing so hard that she was panting a little hard. Katie pointed at Li Jie's serious face and said, "I don't know about the rest. But I do know that you're definitely the most shameless and narcissistic person I've ever met. "
"That's a compliment. Then I'll sincerely accept it, "Li Jie said seriously. Katie was already laughing so hard that she could barely get up.
It took a while for Katie to recover from laughing so hard that she could barely breathe. She sat upright for a moment, then looked at Li Jie and said, "So, is that serious person your real face, or that clown-looking guy your real face?"
Li Jie replied, "I can only say that there's more than one face to a man. When I'm serious, I can bring my own epic background music. When I'm happy, we can pretend that we're SpongeBob and Patrick Star. That's how life is. There aren't so many rules and things like that. I just put on the right expression at the right time. "
Katie leaned against the back of the chair and stretched her long arms and legs. "Aren't you afraid that I'll fall in love with you even more? I told you before, I like you. "
"Shh, lower your voice. If you fall in love with me, do it secretly. Don't let Lan hear you. "Li Jie made a shushing gesture." That's not good. It might cause domestic violence. "
Katie tilted her pretty head and smiled. "You can't beat her? Nightcrawler can't beat her? "
"You don't have to be so direct. I care about my reputation too. "Li Jie didn't answer the question directly.
"So you can't beat her, right?" Katie didn't care about Li Jie's reputation at all. "This is big news. Why don't I go in and announce to everyone that I love you? Didn't you say that you're the most perfect and invulnerable? "
Katie was no longer the timid little girl she was two years ago. Now that she was a leader, Katie was quite bold. Or, to describe her more accurately, she was "shrewd." As a female leader, shrewdness was a compliment. It meant that she could deal with everything quickly and cleanly.
Li Jie grabbed Katie, who was pretending to get up to go to the living room. "We're all friends. Why? Do you really want to see me spill blood? She's the storm of the Himalayas! "
Katie was just trying to scare Li Jie. She looked at Li Jie and shook her head. "To be honest, you're the most shameless person I've ever met. Well, it doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman."
Li Jie shrugged. "You're beautiful. You're right."
Katie continued, "But you're also the most charming man I've ever met." Li Jie interrupted, "Not the most charming?"
Katie spat in disdain. "At least you're not as attractive as Leonardo when he was young. If there's a potion that can make Leonardo look like he was when he was eighteen, I'll definitely like him more. "
"It's over. The only thing Leonardo can do now is play with a water gun with his upper body exposed." Li Jie recalled a certain unrestrained photo of Li. He couldn't help but lament that time was a butcher's knife.
Katie obviously thought of this photo as well. She couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"It's always nice talking to you. This is probably the most I've smiled in a while, "Katie said after a long time." I feel much better. "
Unexpectedly, Katie now felt that Li Jie and Lan being together wasn't so hard to accept. She couldn't tell why. Maybe it was because Li Jie's funny side weakened his charm? Or was it something else?
"So, there's no need to frown at everything. It's good to smile." Li Jie looked at Katie and said, "So, can we go in for pizza now?"
Katie didn't stand up with Li Jie. Instead, she asked, "Aren't you afraid that I'll go in and announce that I like you?"
Li Jie shrugged. "You love whoever you like. That's your freedom and power. I can't stop it. All I can do is control myself. And to be honest, if there's a beautiful female mutant president who adores me, my inner vanity will be greatly satisfied, and I might even swell up. "
Katie shook her head. "You're already very arrogant."
Li Jie said, "There's still some room for expansion."
"As I said, I can't control who likes me. But I can control myself. I know what I should do. And I hope you remember that no matter what, there will always be companions and friends supporting you. Not just me, but many others. We'll go through all the hardships with you, all the way to the dawn. "Li Jie extended his hand to Katie.
Katie looked into Li Jie's eyes. "You promise me?"
Li Jie nodded. "I promise you!"
Katie felt that the haze in her heart had been swept away. She reached out and shook hands with Li Jie. Perhaps, as Li Jie said, there was nothing Li Jie could do about Katie liking or falling in love with Li Jie.
He couldn't interfere with Katie's thoughts. It was all Katie's own freedom. But Li Jie could only control himself.
But at the same time, he also expressed his attitude. It was the same in the past, present, and future. Nightcrawler and Li Jie would always stand behind Katie and support her.
