It seemed that Nick Fury's sudden appearance made Tony Stark realize the many inconveniences of putting on and taking off the Mark suit.
If someone with malicious intent broke into his home again next time, would he still have to give himself time to put on the Mark suit?
The more Tony thought about it, the more he felt insecure.
So, for a while, Tony had been researching portable models, eventually creating the Mark V, which could fold down to the size of a small briefcase.
He even specifically ran to show it off to Lin Feng, leaving Lin Feng speechless for a moment.
Lin Feng wasn't idle either; to gain more prestige, he constantly roamed the gray areas of various districts in New York.
Wherever there was danger, there was Lin Feng; when something happened, he arrived faster than J-Bureau agents.
Often, by the time a large group of agents arrived, Lin Feng had already resolved the situation.
This made the New York authorities both love and hate him, yet they couldn't stop him.
For a time, the name of the superhero wearing a black bodysuit, a cape, and a large S-shaped symbol on his chest resounded throughout New York.
His name was... Superman.
On TV, one would occasionally see Superman saving a chemical plant from a sudden fire.
A cargo ship swaying precariously in a storm safely docked under Superman's protection.
Today, Superman saved a child about to fall from a building, and so on.
His powerful strength, handsome appearance, and a warm heart for helping the public quickly earned Lin Feng a large number of fans.
He even had his own fan forum! His prestige was also skyrocketing.
During this period, the young reporter Susan came knocking again, stating that she wanted to take photos of Lin Feng's on-site rescues.
Because the online photos of Superman were either very blurry or taken from unprofessional angles, they couldn't fully highlight Lin Feng's image.
So she wanted to follow Lin Feng to take pictures, which would also help her complete her work performance.
Lin Feng immediately said that it was completely fine; higher exposure meant more prestige points.
Moreover, this was a mutually beneficial arrangement, he just told Susan to make sure he looked handsome in the pictures.
Susan did not disappoint Lin Feng; to become a reporter, she had specifically enrolled in photographer training.
Every photo she took was eye-catching and impactful, making Lin Feng very satisfied.
After a period of time, the two were almost inseparable during the day, and two young people being together every day for a long time inevitably led to other thoughts.
However, neither of them had realized it yet... As various incidents involving Superman were exposed, the public's acclaim and the buzz around Superman quickly surpassed Iron Man, making Tony Stark feel a mix of jealousy and envy.
As for Susan herself, who was able to capture photos of Superman every time, she quickly became a treasure of CBB TV station.
All sorts of dazzling benefits and treatments were showered upon her, with Susan free to name her terms, for fear that she would be poached by another TV station.
This made the young reporter happy for quite some time, and she directly considered Lin Feng her good friend and benefactor.
On this day, after once again rescuing an out-of-control children's school bus, Lin Feng and Susan, as usual, sat in a coffee shop, admiring the photos they had just taken.
In the photos, Lin Feng lifted the out-of-control school bus with both hands.
There was a happy scene of Lin Feng crouching, surrounded by a group of elementary school students.
And there was the broad back of him flying into the sky after resolving the incident.
Under the clear blue sky, the smiles of the rescued children, and the smile of Superman in his black suit.
This photo would probably win an award!
Susan browsed through the photos, exclaiming from time to time, "Lin! Every time I see you use your abilities, it feels incredible."
"You are truly, too powerful..." Susan didn't hold back her praise and admiration, and little 'stars' even appeared in her eyes as she looked at Lin Feng.
"Hehehe, it's not that amazing," Lin Feng scratched his head awkwardly, speaking modestly.
Inside, he was jumping up and shouting, "Awesome!! I'm the best in the world!"
After browsing the photos, Susan picked up her coffee and took a sip, then suddenly thought of something, becoming a bit fidgety, looking at Lin Feng several times as if to speak but stopping herself.
"What's wrong, Susan?" Lin Feng also noticed this and asked with some confusion.
"Lin..." Susan's cheeks were slightly flushed, she took a deep breath, and as if she had made a decision, she said, "After work tomorrow, would you like to go shopping and watch a movie with me...?"
After speaking, she lowered her head and stared at her coffee, motionless, waiting for Lin Feng's reply.
Thump, thump, thump! Lin Feng keenly noticed that Susan's heart rate was accelerating.
What's going on? Is she sick?
It didn't quite seem like it... Seeing Susan's shy demeanor, and combining it with her words, Lin Feng pondered for a moment, and it seemed like something clicked in his mind.
He seemed to understand, but wasn't quite sure, finally asking tentatively, "Are you... asking me out on a date?"
Hearing Lin Feng ask so directly, Susan's face turned even redder! In her heart, she screamed that Lin Feng was a 'straight man,' how could he just blurt it out!
"I need to go back and hand over the photos to the TV station, goodbye..." Dropping a sentence, Susan, with a red face, 'whooshed' away, leaving Lin Feng sitting alone in the coffee shop in a daze...
"Damn it! I'm really impressed, host, is your 'straight man' level also 'steel body' grade?!" The system's voice popped out, scolding him with a tone of disappointment.
"Eh? You rotten system, what do you mean by that?" Ever since Lin Feng started earning more and more prestige, the system seemed to have evolved from a monkey to a human, its emotions becoming increasingly rich, gradually reaching the point where it could even curse back and forth with Lin Feng...
"That little girl clearly likes you! She was too embarrassed to say it, but you just had to ask..."
"Are you asking me out on a date?!" The system mimicked Lin Feng's tone in a mischievous way.
"You bastard..." Lin Feng clenched his fists and spat, "Can you stop mimicking me! I really want to punch you!"
"Besides, you can't blame me! I've been single since birth for almost 22 years, I have no experience!" Lin Feng argued forcefully.
"You're proud of being single for 22 years since birth?" The system greeted him with disdain: "Do you know why you're single? Look at your 'steel' problem."
"Alright, alright... my fault, okay...?" Lin Feng sighed, he rarely won arguments with the system... And dating, he really didn't know how...
"Don't know how to date? Easy, here, take this!" With a whoosh, the system directly shoved a book into Lin Feng's hand, with four big characters on the cover: Dating Secrets!
"That'll be 100 prestige points, thank you for your patronage!"
Damn it... Lin Feng was speechless, I didn't ask to exchange for this!
Didn't you say you were giving it to me? You're a robber... As dusk fell, the streetlights gradually lit up, and more pedestrians appeared on the streets, making the small coffee shop even livelier.
Lin Feng walked out of the coffee shop, strolling towards his home.
In his mind, he couldn't help but recall the days he had spent with the young reporter Susan.
The young reporter was undoubtedly very beautiful, with slightly curly golden hair softly draped over her shoulders, emerald green eyes like clear lake water, flawless fair skin, and an excellent figure.
Curvy where she should be, slender where she should be.
One could say she perfectly fit Lin Feng's aesthetic.
If you asked Lin Feng if he liked her, Lin Feng could only say that the young reporter's smile was very captivating...
Thinking about it carefully, neither of them had been in a relationship until now, and both were good-looking.
The boy was strong and handsome, the girl was beautiful and lively.
Their personalities also got along well; to say that no sparks would fly would truly be quite impossible... Unbeknownst to them, at some point, both of them had grown accustomed to choosing a coffee shop after taking photos, drinking coffee and admiring the newly taken pictures.
Neither of them had noticed that the boundary of friendship was beginning to blur... Lin Feng, single for 21 years, finally had an epiphany at this moment! They say that one doesn't know how good they have it, and that those involved are confused while onlookers see clearly.
From a third-person perspective, weren't he and Susan just like a couple!
Mom! I might be getting out of the single life! Lin Feng teared up.
He pulled out his phone, found Susan's number, and his fingers quickly typed, typed and deleted, deleted and typed.
Finally, he only typed out 8 unmanly characters.
After work tomorrow! I'll pick you up!
Yahoo! After sending the message, Lin Feng excitedly ran to a deserted place, changed into his suit, and soared into the sky, drawing S-shapes and B-shapes all the way home...
