Compared to the sunny day yesterday, the temperature today was much lower,
But the pedestrians who passed by "My Chinese Restaurant" noticed a strange phenomenon inside...
They were so cold outside that they wished they could wear themselves into balls,
But the diners inside were all thinly dressed and sweating profusely.
They were just separated by a glass window.
But it gave the pedestrians outside an inexplicable illusion that they were not in the same latitude and longitude as the diners.
Bari Allen, who had arrived at "My Chinese Restaurant", had this feeling,
As soon as he pushed the door open and entered, he was hit in the face by the heat wave inside. He looked at the steaming pot on every table,
He only felt that he had not eaten yet,
His whole body warmed up first.
"Sir, may I ask if you are alone?"
Clarice looked at Bari who pushed the door open and asked,
A voice suddenly sounded from behind her. "Hey,
Mr. Allen. "
This made Bari swallow the words that he wanted to say,
He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Peter, whose face was red from eating, greeting him.
Seeing this, Barry smiled at Clarice and said, "Sorry, I'm sorry.
Wait a moment,
I met someone I know. "
"Do as you please."
Clarice made a "please" gesture,
She left first,
On the other hand, Barry walked towards Peter's table.
"Mr. Allen,
Are you here to eat too? Okay,
This question is a little stupid,
Are you alone? "
"Yes."
Bari shrugged at Peter,
"I'm the only one who's free. I just remembered that you recommended this Chinese restaurant to me yesterday, so I came over to eat."
As he spoke, he glanced at the lively situation around him and then smiled. "It seems that you didn't recommend it wrong."
"Of course, the food in this Chinese restaurant is super delicious."
Peter gestured for Bari to sit down. He said, "Mr. Allen, since you're alone, why don't you join us? It'll be more lively this way. "
Bari did not refuse when he heard Peter's words. After all, compared to the other tables that were in groups of three or five, he would indeed look a little lonely if he ate alone.
Pietro saw this and quickly served Bari a set of bowls and chopsticks and a hotpot menu.
"Let me introduce you. This is my friend, Ned, Ned Leeds."
Peter pointed at his friend and introduced Bari. Then, he said to Ned, "This is Mr. Allen, Bari Allen."
"Just call me Bari."
Although Barry was a little older than Peter and Ned, he looked like a fresh college graduate, as his colleagues in the bureau called him baby-faced. Sitting next to two real college students, he didn't feel out of place at all.
"Okay, Bari."
Peter nodded. He looked at Bari, his big brown eyes flashing with curiosity. "I thought you left yesterday? Haven't you finished the discussion? "
The reason why the members of the Justice League came to the Avengers Mansion was because of the Hydra. In addition to New York, the Hydra also appeared and operated in the places guarded by the members of the Justice League, causing them a lot of trouble.
Knowing that S.H.E.L.D. and The Avengers dealt with the Hydra the most, some members of the Justice League made an appointment to come to New York one day.
Because of the fact that Batman, Bruce Weyne, and Iron Man, Tony Stark, the nouveau riche couple (Bruce and Tony: … who the f * ck wants to be a couple with him), the members of the Justice League even chose to arrive in batches.
But unfortunately, when they arrived, The Avengers and S.H.E.L.D. were working together to arrest the Hydra. Fortunately, Natasha stayed at the Avengers Mansion, so Wonder Woman Diana Prince and The Flash Bari Allen, who arrived first, did not come empty-handed.
At first, it was fine, but later, Natasha and Diana, the two female superheroes, became more and more familiar with each other. Soon, Bari, the mascot of the Justice League (Bari: …), was sent aside by the two ladies so as not to disturb their conversation.
Bari: "…???"
The abandoned Barry was alone until another one, the mascot of the Avengers (Spiderman: …), jumped into the Avengers building with a spider web. Only then did he end the awkward situation of sitting alone.
Although Bari and Peter were not of the same age, as mascots of their respective teams (Bari and Peter: …), they still had a lot in common.
However, although they were both mascots of their teams, Bari and Peter were obviously treated differently. The most obvious difference was when they were about to talk business yesterday. Bari sat in the conference room with Bruce, while Peter was chased away by Tony to play video games.
Peter: "…"
They were both mascots, why was the difference so big?
"The matter hasn't been resolved yet, so we have to stay here for a few more days."
Bari responded casually, but his attention was attracted by the fragrant mandarin duck hotpot on the dining table.
Unlike other hotpots, the mandarin duck hotpot was divided into two halves by a copper plate. It looked like a Tai Chi symbol. Half of it was the red broth, and the other half was the clear broth. It looked particularly tempting.
Bari scooped up a beef meatball from the clear broth. He picked it up with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth. When he took a bite, his teeth were scalded by the heat inside, but the chewy texture made his eyes light up.
Barry bit the beef meatball into two pieces. After the heat had dissipated a little, he began to chew. The rich taste of beef was released in his mouth. There was also a faint hint of chrysanthemum fragrance. The fresh and tender taste of the beef was simply praiseworthy.
The hand-made Shantou beef meatball was tender and smooth, and the beef tendon meatball with tendons was more chewy. It was also dipped in the Chaoshan sauce, which added a bit of freshness, saltiness, sweetness, and spiciness.
After a few bites, Bari noticed someone standing next to him. He looked up instinctively and saw Bruce Weyne in a suit standing next to him. "Bruce, you're here?"
With that said, Barry stood up from his chair. However, Peter, who was faster than him, bounced up from his chair. He said in a surprised tone, "Mr. Sstak?"
Hearing this, Bari turned his head and saw Tony Stark, who was also in a suit. He was surprised and blurted out, "Did you ask Mr. Stark out?"
Hearing Bari's words, Tony was the first to curl his lips to express his disdain. Bruce, on the other hand, glanced at his teammate and said, "Bari, you really have a way of making people speechless."
"Ahem."
Bari cleared his throat. Seeing the reactions of the two people involved, he knew that he had to be crazy to ask that question. He took the opportunity to change the topic. "Since you're here, why don't we sit down together?"
"I don't want to have indigestion."
Tony refused. He planned to come today because of his meeting with Issou yesterday. However, Tony did not expect to see Bruce as soon as he got out of the car.
If he was wondering why Bruce knew and came to "My Chinese Restaurant", he knew the reason when he saw Bari and Peter.
It was nothing more than Peter inviting Barry, and Barry taking advantage of the situation to invite Bruce.
In fact, this was indeed the case. However, Tony was not the only one who did not expect to see Bruce here. The richest man in Gotham obviously thought the same.
Therefore, when Tony directly refused, Bruce had already asked Wanda to open a table for him. However …
"Sorry."
Wanda said to Bruce, "Our table is full."
Hearing Wanda's words, Tony cleverly pulled out a chair and sat down. Then, he said to Bruce in a hypocritical manner, "It's a pity. I originally wanted to invite you to sit with me, but since you …"
Bruce did not wait for Tony to finish and continued, "In that case, it would be impolite to decline."
Tony, "…"
Wait for me to finish, you bastard!
The main point is at the end!
Who the f * ck wants you to decline?!
Seeing how Bruce sat down so shamelessly, Tony's face suddenly darkened. However, before he could say anything, Issou appeared.
"We meet again, Sweethearts."
Everyone present instantly saw how Tony's face turned from dark to smiling in a second. "Can I assume that you came out to greet me?"
"Hello, Mr. Stark."
Issou smiled and greeted Tony. Then, his big black eyes scanned Peter's table and saw two unfamiliar faces.
Oh.
It was one of them.
After all, just like Tony, Bruce Weyne, who was also the richest man in China, was also a familiar face in the public eye. When Issou thought about the rumors about these two tycoons not meeting, he roughly understood why Wanda said this.
With this thought in mind, Issou curled his lips and said, "I heard that there might be a fight. In order to prevent my Chinese restaurant from being destroyed, I had to come out and take a look."
Hearing this, Tony glanced at Wanda, and the brown-haired girl silently looked up at the ceiling. Protecting "my Chinese restaurant" was everyone's responsibility.
After all, if there was a fight, the restaurant would be destroyed, Issou would be in a bad mood, and there would be no employee meals.
With this series of equations, how could Wanda allow someone to cause trouble in "my Chinese restaurant"?
Don't even think about it!
Seeing this, Tony withdrew his gaze. When he looked at Issou again, he cleverly chose to change the topic, "Sweethearts, I said that I prefer you to call me Tony."
"Okay, Tony."
Issou readily changed his way of addressing him. Seeing that Clarice had served Tony and Bruce cutlery, she picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for each of them. The light fragrance of the tea lingered along with the steam.
Bruce was sitting opposite Tony, so he naturally saw the series of changes in his expression. He could not help but look at Issou. Coincidentally, her gaze fell on him at the same time, "I hope Mr. Weyne will enjoy your first visit."
Bruce, who understood Issou's meaning, looked at her silently. The black-haired girl's eyes were clear, and her smile was bright. It was hard to refuse. He smiled at her, "I think being able to see such a beautiful chef like you is enough to make me happy."
Peter and Ned, who were also worried that Tony and Bruce would fight, saw that they had calmed down one after another. They immediately looked at Issou with admiration —
Wow.
