"So exciting!"
Wanda, her excitement six parts to her four parts nervousness, threw off the covers and leaped out of bed. Then, remembering Susan's instructions, she immediately forced herself to calm down:
"Girls should be reserved; they shouldn't be too forward."
Adjusting her voice, she replied in a relatively calm tone:
"Adam, wait a moment, I'm just putting on some clothes."
She really did need to put on clothes now.
Because she usually didn't wear clothes to sleep, she was, naturally, in a very cool state after leaving the covers.
Opening the closet, she quickly scanned it and, with a subtle intention, deliberately picked out a pure white, thin nightgown from the middle and put it on.
Of course, she had to be a bit reserved, but she couldn't let Adam be that reserved too, or there would be no chance.
Since he had taken the initiative, she naturally had to send some signals.
"It's so late, is something wrong?"
Reaching out to open the door, Wanda looked at Adam standing at the entrance, feigning a yawn as if she were about to go to sleep.
"I'm looking for you… cough, cough…"
Adam was about to reply, but his gaze swept over Wanda, who was wearing a white nightgown, and his breath hitched. Then, he quickly looked up and coughed twice, tactically.
Truly, plum blossoms smell sweetest in bitter cold, especially striking in the snow.
"What's wrong? Are you catching a cold?"
Seeing this, Wanda deliberately puffed out her chest, then asked with a look of surprise.
Adam quickly reached out and conjured a coat, draping it over Wanda, completely enveloping her body.
"Yes, the weather is a bit cold. I've been catching a bit of a cold recently. You should wear more too."
"A high-level hunter always appears in the form of prey."
Wanda looked at the coat on her, her eyebrows slightly raised, a look of disdain on her face:
"I'm fine. The air conditioning is on inside, it's not cold at all, and this coat is too ugly."
With that, she took off the coat and casually tossed it aside.
Seeing this, Adam couldn't say anything more and could only mutter to himself internally:
"It's fine, it'll be over soon anyway."
"Come in and talk about whatever it is. Outside, we might wake up Mom and Dad."
Wanda reached out and pulled Adam into the room, then hooked her foot to close the door.
"Oh, okay."
Adam paused for a moment, then nodded.
It really wasn't good for Oleg and Elena to know about the suit, otherwise, they would worry.
Wanda pulled Adam to sit on the chair in front of the desk, while she sat on the bed opposite, leaning slightly forward to look at Adam:
"What is it? Speak."
"It's like this: if you're not in a hurry to sleep, I have something I want to do with you here, together."
Adam said, staring intently into Wanda's eyes.
The white nightgown was so thin, and the neckline was wide; he couldn't look down, so he could only sit up straight and look directly at Wanda.
"Do… do… do… are we doing it now?"
Wanda immediately took a deep breath. She hadn't expected Adam to be so direct.
She wanted to use this opportunity to create some ambiguity, to continue what they hadn't finished at school before, and then truly define their relationship.
But she hadn't expected Adam's progress to be so fast, wanting to go straight to that final step with her.
"Yes, right now. Any later and I'm afraid there won't be enough time."
Adam remembered what Shuri had said earlier and nodded seriously.
To finish the suit before Christmas, they had to decide on the desired style today.
"Still not enough time? Is it that long-lasting?"
Wanda glanced at the phone by the bed. It was not yet two o'clock, and there were at least four or five hours until everyone woke up in the morning. Four or five hours wasn't enough?
Even the celebrities in movies didn't last that long.
But thinking about Adam's body when he used to train, it was normal for him to be long-lasting, but it didn't seem to have much to do with physical condition, did it? Strong people weren't necessarily long-lasting.
"It can indeed be used for a very long time."
Adam didn't quite understand what Wanda was saying, but thinking of the quality of the vibranium suit, it wasn't wrong to say it would last a long time.
"You generally prefer…"
He planned to ask Wanda what colors and styles of suits she liked, then use the Deformation Curse to create them based on her description, and then slowly modify them until Wanda was satisfied.
Then he would just send this sample to Shuri in Wakanda and have Shuri make it.
But he was cut off by Wanda halfway through his sentence:
"I… I like… lying on my stomach…"
"?????"
Adam was instantly dumbfounded.
Why would she need to lie on her stomach to choose the style of the suit? Was she too tired today?
"It's not impossible. Then put a pillow under you; it will be more comfortable."
"Put a pillow… more comfortable… okay, okay, okay…"
Wanda took a deep breath, adjusted her posture, and lay on her stomach on the bed, silently pushing the pillow to her abdomen.
Her theoretical knowledge was rich, but her practical experience was zero. This was also her first time, so to say she wasn't nervous was a lie.
"Wanda, turn over and lie on your stomach this way; it will be more convenient."
Adam got up and went to the foot of the bed, saying.
He saw Wanda was lying face down on the bed, her face facing the wall at the head of the bed. If he were to show the suit, Wanda would have to turn her head to see it.
But if she turned around and lay at the foot of the bed, he could stand directly at the foot of the bed, and then she wouldn't have to turn her head; she could just lie there and see it.
"It will be more convenient over there? I didn't see anything like that in the movies."
Wanda paused, but still obediently got up and lay at the foot of the bed, then closed her eyes somewhat nervously.
"Come on, I'm ready!"
"Ready?"
Adam scratched his head. He suddenly felt that Wanda might have misunderstood something.
"Never mind."
After thinking about Wanda's red suit from his past life's memories, he first conjured a similar one in his hand.
"Wanda, you and Pietro are about to become Superheroes. I plan to give each of you a suit. What do you think of this style?
If you don't like it, you can tell me what kind you want, and I will slowly adjust it according to your preferred style.
This suit will use the World's most advanced technology and best materials, with extremely strong defensive capabilities and a one-click donning and doffing function, which is very convenient."
"So… the thing you said we'd do together… is this?"
Wanda suddenly opened her eyes and looked up at Adam.
Adam looked at the gritting-teeth Wanda, and thinking about what Wanda had just said, he finally realized what Wanda had misunderstood.
At this moment, to avoid excessive awkwardness, he could only pretend to be calm and say:
"Yes, it's this matter. Do you like this style?"
"I'm really fed up! No more waiting!"
Wanda suddenly stood up from the bed, leaped onto Adam, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him fiercely.
After kissing him, she looked at the dumbfounded Adam and said:
"Adam, I want to marry you. Do you agree?"
"I don't agree."
Adam replied after three seconds of stunned.
Seeing Wanda's eyes quickly turn red, he immediately added:
"You haven't reached the legal age for marriage yet. I'll agree to marry you when you do!"
