Ever since the Pentagon Alliance was established, New York's already low crime rate had plummeted even further.
The Green Goblin, a new masked hero, had also begun to rise to prominence.
At first, people thought he was the previous bomber due to his appearance, but as Harry appeared more frequently, everyone realized he was a new street hero.
Somewhat surprisingly, Harry's Green Goblin was adored and followed by a group of tech enthusiasts.
The reason, of course, was his cool, armor-like combat suit, and the technologically advanced flying device.
Meng Ran had specifically asked Harry, somewhat strangely, why he didn't make the flying device directly into boots, but instead have the flying device transform into boots.
Harry's answer was that in general, he used the flying device mode because he could use his own unique combat style in that mode, along with sharp weapons and heat-based weapons.
The boot-flying device mode was generally used after landing, or when he needed to accelerate in the air or travel quickly.
Because the boots could be used in flight mode in conjunction with the hidden glider on his back. This mode was much faster than flying while standing.
Hearing Harry's explanation, Meng Ran let out an "Oh~" of sudden understanding, then asked a question that also stumped Harry.
Meng Ran asked Harry, "Then why did you make it transform into boots? Why not just make it transform into the jetpack or glider on your back?"
Harry was also taken aback by this, and then didn't know how to answer Meng Ran.
Because after hearing Meng Ran's words, he also thought to himself: Yeah! Why did I make it transform into boots?
In such everyday life, the time quickly approached Christmas. There were only a few days until Christmas, and the school had already been on holiday for over ten days.
Recently, the Pentagon Alliance had their own plans.
Meng Ran and Gwen had a date, and Peter and Mary Jane also had a date. Only Harry was left, and he planned to go to more parties and events to see if he could also meet his ideal partner.
This day, Meng Ran was excited from the morning because he was going to confess his feelings to Gwen today.
Although Meng Ran and Gwen had been getting along very well during this period, and there were often some pink bubbles, they hadn't officially declared their relationship yet, so they weren't officially dating.
Meng Ran had already booked a restaurant for the evening and planned a series of confessions. He planned to pick Gwen up after lunch, go skiing with her, take a stroll, and then go to dinner.
This dinner was the most important time. After dinner, Meng Ran would stroll with Gwen, and then they would arrive at a location Meng Ran had reserved.
This location was a very good viewing spot. Meng Ran had already made preparations with a fireworks company. When he sent the signal, there would be a brilliant display of special fireworks, and then Meng Ran would confess his feelings to Gwen under the dazzling night sky.
"Hehehehe~" Meng Ran was a little excited just thinking about it.
He quickly finished lunch, and Meng Ran didn't pay attention to Venom, who was still complaining about being hungry. He went straight to the garage, started his Black Car, and drove towards Gwen's house.
When Meng Ran arrived at Gwen's house, Gwen was already dressed and waiting for Meng Ran at the door (this only happens in novels, you know).
Today, Gwen was wearing a beige coat, a beret, a diamond-patterned knitted sweater, a coffee-colored skirt, and flesh-colored pantyhose on her long legs. She was wearing a pair of dark brown boots.
The whole person looked like two words: "pleasing to the eye," "delicious."
Seeing Meng Ran coming, Gwen revealed a sweet smile and ran towards him.
Meng Ran saw Gwen running over and gently embraced her, asking in a doting tone, "Why were you waiting on the side of the road? It's too cold. You should have waited at home and come out when I arrived."
Gwen smiled sweetly and said, "I only came down when I saw you. I saw your car coming from the window of my bedroom, hehe."
Meng Ran stroked Gwen's head, opened the car door for her, and then got into the car himself, starting towards the first stop.
At Gwen's house, George was looking at Meng Ran picking up Gwen with a somewhat serious expression.
George hadn't expected that this Meng Ran, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, would be trying to steal his daughter.
In fact, George's impression of Meng Ran was quite good, but having a good impression was one thing, and being sad that his daughter was being pursued was another.
George watched Meng Ran and Gwen drive away, letting out an old-fashioned sigh before turning away from the window.
Meng Ran and Gwen drove to a ski resort. Although neither of them had learned how to ski, with their strong physical fitness and learning ability, learning to ski was a piece of cake.
"Thud!" Meng Ran, who had just put on his skis, immediately fell on his butt, while Gwen, although a bit wobbly, stood very steadily.
Seeing Meng Ran, who had just been full of confidence, fall on his butt right away, Gwen was also giggling non-stop, supporting herself on her skis.
Venom in Meng Ran's body was also laughing loudly with a rough voice, but Meng Ran gave him a smack on the head, and Venom immediately shut up and became quiet.
Meng Ran, sitting on the ground and rubbing his butt, couldn't sit still when he heard Gwen's laughter.
This won't do, I have to get up quickly, I can't let people laugh at me. Meng Ran thought to himself, and his hands started to move.
Finally, Meng Ran stood up, swaying, "Hahahaha." Meng Ran laughed while putting his hands on his hips, and proudly looked at Gwen.
As it happened, someone skiing by behind him bumped into Meng Ran's back.
Immediately, Meng Ran lost his balance. His laughter was still stuck in his throat when a face full of snow plugged his mouth, and he face-planted.
Gwen, leaning on her skis, was bent over, tears streaming down her face from laughter. Venom finally couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing as well.
Meng Ran's face was buried in the snow, and he felt a chill in his heart.
He staggered to his feet again. After two falls, Meng Ran felt like he'd finally figured out how to stay balanced.
His eyebrows and hair, still dusted with snow, trembled slightly. Meng Ran felt like he could do it.
Meng Ran and Gwen slowly skied forward, finally reaching the small electric lift up the ski slope.
After reaching the summit, Meng Ran fell again while skiing down before finally mastering the sport. Compared to Gwen, who had learned to ski without falling, Meng Ran's progress was a bit slow. It was truly embarrassing for a superhuman.
Meng Ran and Gwen spent a few hours skiing, then explored the surrounding areas.
When it was getting late, Meng Ran took Gwen to dinner.
They were having French food tonight. Although Gwen loved Sichuan cuisine, they couldn't eat it every time they went out; they needed to change things up.
Meng Ran had already reserved a window-side table. He and Gwen sat by the window, enjoying delicious food while admiring the night and snow scenes outside.
Snowflakes began to fall again, drifting down from the sky and eventually accumulating into a thick layer on the ground.
Gwen leaned against the glass window, watching a crystal-clear snowflake clinging to the glass, counting its edges.
Meng Ran looked at Gwen's beautiful face. A little red wine had brought a faint blush to her cheeks. Her clear blue eyes gazed out the window, as pure as the clearest spring water, making him feel intoxicated.
The flickering lights shone on Gwen, adding a touch of warmth and tenderness to the scene of a beauty like a painting.
After dinner, Meng Ran and Gwen went to the riverside.
"I have another gift for you today," Meng Ran said, stopping and smiling at Gwen.
Gwen blinked, a little expectant and a little confused. "What gift?"
Meng Ran laughed, "Close your eyes, you'll see soon."
Gwen heard this and obediently closed her eyes.
Seeing this, Meng Ran took out his phone and pressed a button.
Looking at Gwen with her eyes closed, Meng Ran slowly leaned in, his lips meeting Gwen's soft, red mouth.
Feeling Meng Ran's "attack," Gwen quickly opened her eyes, a little embarrassed and a little flustered.
The moment she opened her eyes, a flurry of fireworks erupted across the river.
The dazzling display immediately illuminated the black night sky.
As one wave of fireworks faded, another rose, forming several words. Then came another wave, and another, each spelling out a few words that, together, read:
"Gwen, will you be my girlfriend!"
Gwen stared at the magnificent fireworks in the distance, the radiant light reflecting in her blue eyes and stirring something within her soft heart. She'd even forgotten to push Meng Ran away, who had been attacking her.
Meng Ran released Gwen's lips, and looked at her flushed cheeks. He smiled and asked, "Gwen, will you be my girlfriend?"
Gwen's eyes seemed to shimmer, like autumn water. Blushing, she shyly nodded.
Before Meng Ran could even celebrate, he was "attacked" by Gwen.
Gwen tiptoed, wrapped her arms around Meng Ran's neck, and awkwardly "invaded" his mouth.
The fireworks in the distance continued, and under the fireworks, this couple embracing and kissing turned into the most beautiful silhouette of this winter.
"This time, Gwen made the first move."
