Compared to the stiffness of the UK, American parties are generally very wild, with rock music and flashing lights, allowing students to go crazy, except they can't drink alcohol.
Skye's appearance surprised many of her former classmates; they hadn't expected that after dropping out, Skye would become Wang Kai's girlfriend and become so radiant. The evening gown she wore was clearly not ordinary merchandise, absolutely impossible to rent, and the jewelry was obviously real.
Everyone wondered how they hadn't noticed that among their classmates, there was a quiet rich man. Many people knew that Wang Kai was an orphan; otherwise, no one would have bullied him back then. That ruled out the possibility of Wang Kai being a second-generation rich kid. Moreover, Wang Kai hadn't been to jail, which meant his money came from legitimate sources. Some gold diggers started to regret it, thinking if they had noticed this earlier, maybe they could have worn that expensive dress and precious jewelry. They felt their curves were much more attractive than Skye's.
Unfortunately, they didn't understand Wang Kai. Perhaps the previous Wang Kai would have appreciated their curves, but the Wang Kai who had been replaced by a transmigrator from another world had not let his aesthetic sense go awry.
Drinking juice, Wang Kai and Skye chatted in a corner of the party. Wang Kai wasn't someone who liked to join in the fun, and without the stimulation of alcohol, it was hard for him to let loose. It was better to enjoy the quiet. Attending the graduation party was enough; there was no need to make himself go wild like those in the middle of the dance floor, who looked like a bunch of demons dancing chaotically.
They were working so hard for the titles of Prom King and Prom Queen awarded at the end of the party. Although there were no substantial rewards, it was an honor, an honor worth everyone's affirmation, and quite prestigious to display at home. Americans' fanaticism for this kind of trophy was comparable to Chinese people's fanaticism for certificates.
Unsurprisingly, the Prom King was won by the basketball captain Flash, and the Prom Queen was won by Gwen. After all, they were the school's focus, naturally attracting attention. As for Gwen's decent boyfriend Peter, no one cared about him. Although Peter had once shone brightly, he later fell back into obscurity, and the school's focus remained on Flash.
After the graduation party ended, it meant that Wang Kai had finished his high school career. Next, he would enjoy his vacation, but Wang Kai's vacation wasn't so relaxed. On the third day after the party, Wang Kai boarded a plane to Los Angeles. This time there might be danger, so Wang Kai asked Skye to stay at home. With Meow Meow and Mindy by her side, her safety was guaranteed.
"Kai, come quickly and look at my Iron Man suit. How is it? Impressive, right?"
Arriving at Tony's mansion, Wang Kai was pulled by Tony to his basement. From beneath the floor, a gold and red painted Iron Man suit rose up. It was two meters tall and fit the human structure well.
"Not bad, very eye-catching, unforgettable at first glance, very fitting for your personality."
Wang Kai was a transmigrator, and this Mark III Iron Man suit from the movie wasn't enough to impress him. One should know that later, when Tony was bored, he built a whole family of Iron Man suits with various models and functions, and even built the Mark XLIV Hulkbuster armor to counter the Hulk. Now *that* was impressive.
"That's right, Obie said so too."
Tony's gaze was fixed on his masterpiece; he didn't notice Wang Kai's real meaning.
"That guy Obadiah also came to see this?"
Wang Kai was taken aback. He hadn't expected that Obadiah Stane had actually come to see Tony's Iron Man suit. In the movie, Tony clearly refused Obadiah Stane. It seemed he had changed some things. Since Tony hadn't experienced the pain of being kidnapped and near death, he naturally wasn't very cautious. And it seemed Obadiah Stane hadn't exposed himself yet.
However, this was also good. Without the Mark I,
Obadiah Stane wouldn't be able to develop his Iron Monger; he needed a prototype. Otherwise, Wang Kai's mission couldn't be completed. If he just killed Obadiah Stane casually, he might face punishment.
"Have the internal issues at Stark Industries been cleared up?"
Wang Kai asked, meaning to remind Tony not to trust just anyone.
"Almost. Pepper has already ruled out a few people, and there aren't many left."
Tony said, his expression not looking good. Although they hadn't found out who was secretly selling weapons to the Ten Rings members, they had uncovered quite a few problems. He hadn't expected his control over the company to be so weak. This naturally made Tony look unhappy.
"So, is Obadiah among the people who have already been investigated, or among the remaining ones?"
Wang Kai asked, watching Tony's expression to see if Tony realized there was a problem with his uncle.
"Obie? You mean Obie? You think he's behind this? Do you have any evidence?"
Tony was stunned. He had never suspected Obadiah Stane, but Wang Kai suddenly asking this meant there was a problem. Wang Kai shouldn't be shooting in the dark, right?
"No evidence. I'm just inferring based on common sense. If you die, Obadiah will become the CEO of Stark Industries. He benefits the most. This is the most basic criminal inference. As for evidence, aren't you investigating it now?"
Wang Kai said. Wang Kai indeed had no evidence to show that Obadiah Stane was problematic. In the movie, Tony also discovered it himself and then had Pepper investigate. Wang Kai had no way to provide evidence.
"Ever since my father died, Obie has always helped me. He's the one who pushed me into the CEO position."
Doubt began to appear in Tony's heart, but he was unwilling to admit it. He tried hard to convince himself, talking about Obadiah Stane's good points.
"People change. Besides, you haven't found any evidence yet. If you can't find any evidence, won't you feel more at ease?"
Wang Kai said. After all, he couldn't make it too obvious. Tony's attitude was still ambiguous right now. If Tony told Obadiah Stane, the other party would definitely prepare in advance, and things would become troublesome then.
"I understand. I'll be careful."
Tony's mood was a little heavy. If the person he trusted the most betrayed him, how should he accept it?
"Tony, are you going to attend the Firefighter Family Fundraiser reception today?"
At this moment, Pepper called to ask Tony. Among the charity funds under Tony's name, one was for firefighter families, caring for firefighters who sacrificed or were injured while fighting fires and their families. This was the third time.
