I Have a Girlfriend in Marvel

Gwen's doubts were met with an even fiercer counterattack.

The essentials of Bajiquan: short and swift force, sudden changes, a combination of hardness and softness, and rhythmic alternations of yin and yang...

Gwen retreated, while Su Ye directly chose to use the 'Beautiful Night Walker' girlfriend card. It's called 'beautiful' for a reason, definitely not some cross-dressing uncle.

Besides, this 'Night Walker,' like the scholar and the coach, is just a profession, not a hero name, so he's definitely overthinking it.

[Ding! Excellent-grade girlfriend card 'Beautiful Night Walker' used. Night Walker girlfriend is on her way...]

Nothing happened that day.

The next day, Gwen called in sick again. Her frequent sick leaves lately had her teachers and classmates worried—was she okay? With graduation just around the corner, taking eight sick days in two weeks seemed like she might have a serious illness.

Harry had already suggested several times to visit Gwen with Mary Jane, let alone others.

Fortunately, she had almost completed her credits, and her college applications were done. It didn't matter if she showed up at school, as long as she could take the final exams and attend the graduation ceremony.

After all, she was the top graduate of the year, and her image had to be captured in the graduation ceremony's videos and photos.

Su Ye, on the other hand, went to school as if nothing had happened. After learning Bajiquan, not only was he stronger, but his recovery speed had also improved.

At school, Harry was absent again. After such a big event, as the hero who helped take down the Mafia's criminal hideout, he had to undergo numerous interrogations and interviews, while also guarding against potential retaliation from Kingpin.

It would likely take at least a week before he could be seen back at school.

In the seat in front of Su Ye, which used to belong to Gwen, Mary Jane was sitting there as usual, wearing her signature low-cut top, dressed up flamboyantly with an inviting demeanor.

"Hi, Yesu!"

Seeing Su Ye enter, Mary Jane quickly greeted him with a smile. Due to Harry, the two were somewhat familiar, but Su Ye always kept his distance from her because he felt her gaze was always... strange.

Because of this, Su Ye didn't even dare to drink with Harry, fearing that if Harry passed out drunk, something might happen...

"Hi, MJ."

No matter what, a greeting was necessary upon meeting.

"Have you seen Harry recently?" Mary Jane asked anxiously before Su Ye could even sit down.

"I haven't seen him for days. He's not answering my calls, and I'm really worried about him."

Though her words sounded worried, her expression didn't show much concern. Instead, it looked more like she was annoyed about not being able to see Harry…

"Is there something you need from him? Maybe I can pass the message along!"

As Harry's friend, Su Ye didn't mind delivering a message, but helping a friend's girlfriend scratch her itch? That wasn't happening…

"I have a performance the night after tomorrow. I hope he can come, and I'd love for you and Gwen to come too!" Mary Jane said, her eyes glistening.

This time, she wasn't just playing a prop but a minor character with lines. This was a big step forward for Mary Jane, and she wanted to share this moment with Harry.

"The night after tomorrow? Sure, I'll pass on the message. If Gwen and I are free, we'll join you."

Just as Su Ye finished speaking, his phone rang. It was Harry.

"Hey, Harry, what's up?" Su Ye answered, but he didn't rush to mention Mary Jane's matter.

On the other end, Harry's tone was a bit strange.

"Xiao Ye, I think you need to come to the Osborn Corporation building. There's something we need to discuss in person."

Harry was trying hard to sound professional, but there was an odd undertone in his voice that he couldn't quite hide.

It was almost like he'd just discovered that he wasn't Norman Osborn's real son—Su Ye was.

Under these circumstances, Su Ye naturally couldn't bring up Mary Jane's issue. He gave a polite smile, packed his things, and left.

As he passed by the teacher who was just entering, Su Ye casually asked for leave.

"Teacher, I've got a bit of a fever. I'd like to visit the fever clinic."

The teacher immediately stepped back, covered his nose and mouth, and waved him off. "Go quickly. I'll grant you three days of leave—come back only after the fever's gone!"

Over half an hour later, Su Ye appeared in the Osborn Corporation's building. Inside a spacious and tidy office, a six or seven-meter-long oval conference table dominated the room. Around it sat over a dozen middle-aged men, most sporting the same balding hairstyle.

Harry was seated at the head of the table, presiding over the meeting as the chairman.

It was clearly an internal board meeting of the Osborn Corporation. Su Ye couldn't figure out why Harry had called him. Was he really planning to offer shares and invite him to join the company as Spider-Man?

No one answered Su Ye's question. As soon as he walked in, Harry took the lead in clapping. "Welcome, Director Su, to the board meeting."

Being called 'Director Su' left Su Ye utterly bewildered.

Who am I...

"Wait a minute, clarify the situation first!"

Su Ye raised his hand, his finger on the trigger of his web shooter. He was starting to suspect this was some kind of lunatics' gathering. If any of them made a suspicious move, he'd web their faces in no time!

Harry, however, left his seat holding a tablet in front of him like a dutiful son carrying a portrait of a deceased relative. And that portrait—no, the face on the tablet—was Old Su's.

What's going on? Did Old Su die? Was Harry his illegitimate son? Was this some grand memorial service? No need for such theatrics!

"Uncle Su, I think it's better if you explain," Harry said, stepping forward and addressing the tablet.

On the tablet, Old Su was in a video call. When he saw Su Ye, his face showed a complex expression.

"Son, you're about to graduate high school. It's time I stopped hiding some things from you," Old Su said.

Hearing Old Su's words, Su Ye surprisingly calmed down. He had just activated the girlfriend card last night, and now this. Clearly, the system had assigned Old Su a new identity again.

So, what was Old Su's new identity this time? Osborn Corporation's chairman? Harry's biological father? If he became Norman Osborn's dad, Su Ye might actually respect him.

And why was the new girlfriend still nowhere in sight, while the new identity was already in place?

"Actually, I'm a silent shareholder of the Osborn Corporation, holding about ten percent of its shares…"

The Osborn Corporation was worth $20 billion, and ten percent of that was $2 billion—over 17 billion yuan! Did the richest person in Dragon Country in 2010 even have that much money?
