Chapter 022: You Poach My Corner
The strength improved again, and Su Yi became more confident.
"I don't have a superhero or super villain standing on the surface, and I'm almost invincible."
"This feeling is really good."
After Su Yi counted the harvest, she immediately prepared dinner.
Because of the sudden appearance of Natasha Romanoff, there was a lot of delay.
In a blink of an eye, on the night of the charity gala, Su Yi wore a newly bought suit and drove to pick up Pepper.
Pepper Pepper also wore a long purple dress, waiting for Su Yi by the side of the road, looking very beautiful.
"It's a pity that I can't do cupping."
Su Yi stopped by the side of the road, "Hey, beauty, do you need a ride?"
When Pepper saw Su Yi, he smiled, "I think I need it, can you take me to the hotel?"
"definitely ok, please get in the car."
Pepper sat in the co-pilot's seat and fastened his seat belt.
"Pepper, I can't believe it. Usually, you always wear formal clothes, and you already look very beautiful. Unexpectedly, you are even more beautiful now in a formal dress."
Pepper was praised by Su Yi, but she was still a little shy, "Really? I've never worn such a dress. Before, I was worried that the back would open too much."
"I think it's so beautiful. You think it will attract everyone's attention. If you were my girlfriend, I would definitely try to prevent other men from looking at you."
Pepper has gradually fallen, and he doesn't know how to deal with Su Yi's offensive, so he has to change the subject.
"Su, I think you should go."
"no problem."
Su Yi set off with Pepper, all the way to the outside of the hotel.
This place has been booked out and many people have been invited.
The charity gala is said to be for charity, but in fact these celebrities are socializing and discussing business.
With the help of Su Yi, Pepper got out of the car, took Su Yi's arm, and entered the hotel.
At this moment, the charity gala was quite lively, and Su Yi also saw Obadiah.
Obadiah looks not too different from the movie, very scheming and Ability.
Obadiah was also talking to other people, but suddenly noticed Su Yi and Pepper.
Pepper is Tony's assistant, Su Yi has an oriental face, and Obadiah has never seen it.
When Su Yi and Pepper came to the bar to order two glasses of wine, Obadiah appeared.
"Pepper."
"Sir, what's the matter?"
"Is Tony coming tonight?"
"I'm not sure either. When I left, he was still busy in the underground studio and asked me not to disturb him. According to the normal situation, he should not appear."
"Okay then, who is this?"
Pepper immediately introduced, "He is Su Yi, Mr. Su."
"Mr. Su bought a lot of shares when the company's stock plummeted, and now he owns 14 shares."
Su Yi stretched out his right hand neither humble nor overbearing, "Hi, Mr. Obadiah, nice to meet you. I have been looking for an opportunity to invest in Stark Industries, but the stock price is too high."
"This time, I finally seized this opportunity. I think Stark Industries will definitely rise again, right?"
Obadiah is also extremely confident, "definitely, if you believe in Stark Industries, we will work hard to repay it. It's just that Tony announced the closure of the weapons department, and it will take some time to rise."
"I know, I trust Tony, he's a genius, he's sure to figure out a way out of trouble."
Obadiah was very upset, but he had nothing to do with Su Yi.
Su Yi now holds 14 shares, and is no longer a minority shareholder.
Obadiah looked at the close relationship between Su Yi and Pepper, and even suspected that Su Yi was supported by Tony.
Originally, he could still influence the board of directors, and he could remove Tony as the executive president at that time.
But now, the appearance of Su Yi made his plan uncontrollable.
If Su Yi favors Tony, his plan to oust Tony may be difficult to realize.
"Yes, we'll take care of the trouble."
After a few brief chats, Obadiah turned and left with an ugly expression on his face.
Now, normal means can no longer solve the problem, only some unconventional means can be used.
"Tony, let you die by your own design."
"This company has poured all my heart and soul into it, it is my company!"
...
After seeing off Obadiah, Su Yi also took a break, "Pepper, let's go to the dance floor."
Pepper hesitated slightly, and agreed, "Okay."
The two came to the center of the dance floor and became dancing partners very naturally, shaking slowly here while chatting.
"Pepper, are you Tony's woman?"
Pepper was shocked, and immediately denied it, "No, I'm just his assistant."
"Tony is a playboy, how could he miss you, a beauty?"
"I don't know, the beauties around him are obviously prettier than me. Maybe, I'm not his type, and he's not my type."
"Is he not your type?"
"Yeah, he's my boss. I don't want to be thought that I got to the top by shady means."
"And, in my opinion, Tony is totally immature. He's a genius with a tragic past. Lots of quirks and can't take care of himself."
"In these years, I have taken care of him like a younger brother, or rather, I am just his nanny."
Su Yi defended Tony, "Maybe it will feel like this, but I believe that he has begun to change himself now. He will mature and begin to take on his own responsibilities."
"Perhaps."
Su Yi decided to strike while the iron was hot and continue to draw the relationship between the two closer.
"And me, am I your type?"
Pepper flustered for a moment, and her dance steps deviated, stepping on Su Yi.
Pepper immediately realized the problem and stopped, "I'm sorry, I, I need to calm down, I'm going to the balcony to blow some air."
"It's ok."
Pepper and Su Yi came to the balcony first, and it was still a little difficult for Pepper to face Su Yi.
Su Yi didn't continue to ask, "Do you want something to drink? I'll get it for you."
"Vodka martini, no water, extra olives."
"Hold on."
Su Yi left, and Pepper couldn't help but look at Su Yi's face.
"Oh shit, this is so embarrassing, he's several years younger than me."
"Pepper, why are you blushing, are you really moved?"
"However, Su is handsome, mature and stable, completely different from Tony."
Pepper let the wind blow his face, and finally calmed down a little.
Su Yi also came back with two glasses of wine, "Pepper, the wine you want."
"thanks."
Pepper drank it down in one gulp, relieved her breath, and mustered up her courage, "Su, I have something to tell you."
"Just say it, I'd love to listen."
"Su, you are excellent and very attractive to me. However, you are younger than me, so I find it hard to accept."
Su Yi took the initiative to hug Pepper, and the two became closer.
"It's not a problem, I like you."
Pepper froze, staring at Su Yi.
The two looked at each other, the atmosphere gradually heated up, and a different kind of affection emerged.
Su Yi lowered her head and kissed Pepper.
Just at this moment, an untimely voice came, "Oh, Karma's!"
"Su, are you poaching my corner?"
