The evening's dinner was arranged by the old English butler. Red wine, steak, and salad were essential, and the ingredients were custom-ordered. They even hired a chef from China specifically to prepare not only Western dishes but also Chinese cuisine that Li Yue enjoyed.
But you can get tired of even good things if you have too much of them. Perhaps, this is what you call 'being a masochist'!
After dinner, Li Yue and Max chatted for a while before each returning to their respective rooms.
The old butler would take care of the other miscellaneous matters.
Li Yue's room was located on the southernmost side of the second floor; it was large and luxurious.
The huge room had almost everything. To the south was a massive floor-to-ceiling window made of high-strength bulletproof glass. Standing by the window, you could see the mighty Manhattan River flowing not far away.
The environment was beyond reproach.
However, Li Yue was not in the mood to appreciate the night view of the Manhattan River at the moment. Standing in the room, his expression had unknowingly turned cold and indifferent.
Immediately, he turned his head and said indifferently towards the empty doorway behind him, "Come out!"
But there was nothing!
"You don't need to hide anymore. Ever since I left the Noah Group building, you've been following me. Although I don't know how you managed not to be shaken off, that's no longer important!"
"Come out!"
"Shi—t, I was actually discovered! Did I spend too long last night, making me careless? Damn it, it's all because that chick yesterday was really too beautiful and even deliberately seduced handsome and charming me. Sigh, mistake, mistake!"
In the empty room, a string of cursing and muttering suddenly came out. Immediately after, the space at the doorway began to distort, rippling continuously like a stone thrown into water. Ripples spread out, and the next moment, a figure appeared before Li Yue.
"Hi, hello, Mr. Li Yue. To be honest, I'm a fan of yours! The virtual device invented by Noah Group is really too cool, especially the game 'Myth'. There are so many beautiful women in it! It's a pity you can't do XXOO in there, otherwise, it would be even more perfect!"
"Mr. Li Yue, why did you have to prohibit XXOO in the virtual world? I've never done it with anyone in there! Just thinking about that scene, I can't control myself a little. Oh, shi—t, I can't take it anymore! I need to go back tonight and have a go!"
Li Yue looked at the man in front of him, who was spouting a pile of nonsense, and recognized who this guy was at a glance!
It wasn't strange; his characteristics were simply too obvious, okay?
He wore a dirty, red and black jumpsuit that looked like a knockoff Spider-Man suit. He carried two long swords on his back, his right leg drooped, and his left leg kept twitching. He had a completely lackadaisical appearance.
Combined with the previous scene that was clearly spatial movement, there was no need to say who in Marvel had these characteristics.
"Deadpool? Wade Wilson?"
Li Yue's expression remained unchanged, and he spoke in a calm tone.
"Oh, you mean Mr. Li Yue knows me too? Is my Lord Deadpool really that famous now that even a big shot billionaire like Mr. Li Yue can recognize me?"
Deadpool shook his head, his masked face showing no expression. "It seems I'll have to bring a pen next time I go out. Otherwise, how can I give autographs when I meet fans?"
"Oh, right, what color pen do you think I should buy? Blue, black, or red?"
"Red is too bright, doesn't suit my style. Blue is too ordinary, not for me. How about black? Yes, black is low-key yet luxurious, perfectly matching my taste! But where should I put the pen? This suit has no place for a pen. Should I, perhaps, shove the pen in *there*?"
When Deadpool said this, he suddenly clutched his crotch and quickly shook his head. "No, no, no, let's not. It would be terrible if I damaged my big treasure!"
"Mr. Li Yue,"
"Don't you think I'm right? I still shouldn't bring a pen. If Mr. Li Yue wants my autograph, then I regret to inform you, you can't have it!"
Deadpool spread his hands, looking helpless.
At this moment, Li Yue's expression remained calm, but upon closer inspection, you could see his eye twitching incessantly.
Finally!
"Enough! Everyone says you're a chatterbox, and now I know you're not just a chatterbox, but also a narcissist!"
Li Yue finally couldn't stand Deadpool's babbling. He talked a load of nonsense and was extremely vain. He simply didn't know how this guy's brain worked. Was it necessary for his imagination to be so rich?
"Chatterbox? Oh, fuc—k, who said that? I'm just brave enough to express my inner feelings. This is sincerity, this is honesty..."
"Mr. Li Yue, you can't just put this black pot on me because you heard some gossip from others. I, Wade Wilson, am an honest man! I never lie! Those people simply don't understand the charm of language. Under the sun, chatting with a beautiful woman, then kissing each other, then hugging each other, then XXOOing each other, and afterward, holding each other and talking about our worries, freely discussing the future and ideals—how wonderful is that!"
At this moment, if this were an anime, Li Yue's face would definitely be covered in black lines.
This guy was simply too good at rambling, and he could bring up beautiful women and XXOO in less than three sentences.
"You like XXOO so much, why don't you reincarnate as a stud?"
Muttering softly, Li Yue was now full of helplessness. He wanted to ask Deadpool what he was here for, but looking at the current situation, he estimated Deadpool could keep rambling for a long time.
"Stud? What's that? What's reincarnation? Can you eat it? Or is it some kind of beautiful woman?"
"Get lost!"
"Oh, sorry, I can't get lost. After all, I'm here today because I have a mission!"
Deadpool cleared his throat and spoke righteously.
"Speak, what is your purpose for coming!" Seeing that he finally stated his purpose, Li Yue's expression turned cold.
"Mr. Li Yue, do you know why I admire you so much? It's not just because you invented virtual games, but because your head is simply too valuable! Seriously, I've never seen a head worth this much!"
As he spoke, Deadpool also smacked his lips.
"Head? Valuable?"
Li Yue's heart stirred, and he knew what he was here for. "You accepted a mission to assassinate me? Is the bounty very high?"
"Yes, the bounty is very high. I think I can retire after this job, then buy a manor in Hollywood and pick up some hot chicks on the Walk of Fame every day..."
"Stop!" Seeing that Deadpool was about to ramble again, Li Yue's expression turned cold, and he interrupted him. "Tell me, who issued the mission, how much is the bounty, where was it issued, and how many people accepted this mission?"
"Mr. Li Yue, I'm sorry, you know, as a cultivated and moral mercenary, revealing the employer's information is something I absolutely cannot do!"
Deadpool spread his hands, looking helpless.
"Is that so?"
Li Yue's expression didn't change. He raised his right hand and held up one finger.
"One million!"
"What?"
"One million. As long as you answer my questions as quickly as possible, I will give you one million US dollars!"
"Okay! Deal!"
Deadpool's body moved, and he instantly appeared in front of Li Yue.
(The comment section is so deserted. Seeing this after finishing writing makes me a little sad. I hope everyone who thinks it's okay can leave a comment. Of course, for a new book, collections and recommendations are very important. Durian here asks brothers to cast a vote and give this book some support. I'm almost done with some things now, and recently you can see that my updates are gradually increasing. There will only be more and more in the future. I hope brothers can give me some motivation!)
