Vroom, vroom—
Ye Li pressed a few times, then stopped honking, letting Veronica honk automatically.
He himself leaned back in the seat and pulled out his phone to scroll through short videos.
The big data thoughtfully recommended hot beauty dance videos to him; the refreshing video content went quite well with the refreshing sea breeze.
However, as for the hot dance level… Ye Li's evaluation was that it was average, not as good as Gwen and their dancing.
Vroom, vroom—
"Sir, you have a visitor."
"After information verification, it is confirmed to be Mr. Ye Li, and you have an invitation record for him."
Stark rolled over, still sound asleep, not hearing Jarvis's announcement.
Next to him was a blonde woman, completely nude, covered only by a white bedsheet.
"Sir."
Jarvis: "Sir."
"Oh—Jarvis!"
Tony finally woke up, rubbing his head and getting up, "Shouldn't a rest day be about pleasant communication with a beautiful woman?"
"Who is this guy visiting me so early in the morning?"
Jarvis: "Sir, the current time is 9:43."
"Isn't that still early?"
Although Stark said that, since he was already awake, he still got up.
"Someone's visiting you?"
The sexy woman next to him had also woken up and now, holding the bedsheet, smiled at Tony, "I bet it's a lady~"
Christina was a well-known reporter.
So she knew.
Given Iron Man Tony Stark's personality.
He didn't have many true friends.
Those who would come at this time were more likely to be beauties with whom he had romantic affairs~
However, she was immediately proven wrong by Jarvis.
It repeated the announcement: "Sir, it is Mr. Ye Li, he has your invitation access."
"It's him, oh—"
After a yawn, Tony instructed, "Jarvis, pull up the monitoring at the entrance."
The floor-to-ceiling window in the sea-facing room immediately displayed the scene at the entrance, complete with sound.
Vroom, vroom—!
Veronica, parked at the entrance, honked very loudly, but Ye Li, who had been in her seat, was gone.
"….."
Tony: "Jarvis, don't tell me the visitor is a motorcycle, although it's cool."
"Sir, just twelve seconds ago, Mr. Ye Li was invited in by Ms. Pepper and is now waiting in the living room, being entertained by Ms. Pepper."
On the glass window display, the scene shifted.
The sight of Ye Li and Pepper chatting face-to-face appeared, and they seemed to be getting along quite well.
"All right, I'll be right there."
Tony walked out of the room and went to another room to get dressed.
"Hey, Tony!"
Christina, left behind, rummaged around and found her clothes were missing.
She had no choice but to put on a shirt Stark had left there over her underwear.
"Ye… Li…"
Christina remembered the name—
Although Ye Li was not as widely known among the public as Tony Stark, he had quite a reputation in socialite circles due to his hobby of drawing beautiful women.
So she also walked out curiously; after all, she was a reporter, and you can never have too much material.
…...
"Is Tony still sleeping?"
Ye Li took the coffee Pepper handed him, not rushing to drink it, "Is he like this every day? I even heard some people say he's a workaholic."
"Occasionally."
Pepper, sitting opposite him in a dignified posture, chatted, "Just like last night, for example, he met a beautiful reporter from Vanity Fair magazine, so he'll be getting up a bit late today."
"Oh, then I guess he should be reluctantly getting up just now."
Ye Li politely complimented, "Ms. Pepper, with such a thoughtful beauty like you by his side, I think Tony should cherish it, instead of casually finding women for one-night stands."
Pepper felt a pang in her heart, masking a wry smile with a polite one.
"I am merely a housekeeper and assistant, bringing back dry-cleaned clothes for the women Tony brings home.
And then… sweeping the trash out the door."
[Trash….]
Ye Li's eyebrows raised slightly; it seemed Pepper had a lot of resentment towards Stark and the women he brought home….
Hmm… shouldn't I stir things up for Tony?
"Being an assistant is good."
Ye Li continued to chat, "I also have a little assistant; she's very beautiful, very smart, and most importantly, she has a nimble little mouth~ very clingy~"
"Is that so."
Pepper didn't realize Ye Li was secretly talking about Skye, and she felt a little envious of such a close relationship.
However, she didn't show it on her face, maintaining a smile and saying, "It seems Mr. Ye Li is also quite a ladies' man~ You must be very good at pleasing women, right?"
When Pepper asked him that.
Ye Li was not embarrassed and smiled, retorting, "Then have I pleased you, Ms. Pepper?"
This wasn't because he was interested in Pepper; it was just a casual little joke to liven up the conversation.
Pepper was still relatively young at this time.
"Of course~ Mr. Ye, you have great demeanor, and I don't think many women would refuse you."
Pepper was the same, making a little joke~
After all, Ye Li was talented and handsome, and she also had a good impression of him, so she didn't mind bantering with him a bit.
"Mr. Ye has great achievements in art; recently, Jackson Pollock has a new work…"
Pepper found a topic to chat with Ye Li, "It's from his representative 'Spring' series. What do you think of it?"
"The painting is not bad, but the asking price is too inflated, and there's very little room for appreciation, so I don't recommend buying it."
Ye Li chatted with Pepper with a pleasant expression, but inwardly he was growing a bit impatient—
[Hiss]
[Why isn't Tony coming down yet?]
[He keeps urging me to come over]
[I came, and he's playing with women there instead]
Ye Li somewhat understood Pepper's resentment… taking care of someone with Tony's extreme lifestyle was indeed quite difficult.
Speaking of which, in the comics, it seems Pepper was taken by Tony's bodyguard Happy, and they even got married later….
"Mr. Ye?"
Pepper reminded, "Your coffee is getting cold."
"Okay, thanks for the reminder." The coffee cup wasn't even palm-sized, so Ye Li drank it all in one gulp.
And at this moment.
The dawdling Tony finally came down, "Hey, Li, you like to drink it like that too?"
"Tony, did the female reporter from Vanity Fair make you linger?"
Ye Li put down the coffee cup, "Do you want to learn fighting techniques from me, or do you want to learn some special fighting techniques from her?"
"Li, you're acting like a jealous little woman now."
Tony sat on the sofa and spread his hands, "She can't teach me. In fact, I should be teaching her."
