Chapter 71 Christmas Eve (1)
At 1224, Warren's private plane arrived at the Antarctic ice sheet on time and carried Li Ji back to the United States. net
"Gage, how was your practice this time?" Warren did not fly the plane himself this time, but found a pilot so that he could sit and drink with Li Ji.
"It's not bad. Although it was a little unexpected, the overall feeling is okay." Li Ji held a glass of Sprite, clinked it with Warren's red wine, and drank it in one gulp.
"I really envy your physique." Warren also drank the red wine in one gulp. "If it were me, I definitely wouldn't be able to bear the cold and loneliness of the Antarctic."
"Actually, it doesn't count." Li Ji told the truth. The temperature in Antarctica is not cold at all to him. As for loneliness, it was a bit lonely at first. After Hulk came, Li Ji felt a little nostalgic for being alone before. a feeling of.
Generally speaking, Li Ji's training this time was very successful. Although his strength has not improved much, it has consolidated the power he improved in the previous year. According to the speed of Li Ji's power improvement, he may not be able to control it as much as Peter now. His own power, possessed by the God of Destruction.
In addition, he also witnessed the changes in Hulk. Although Hulk failed to return to Banner's appearance in three days, Li Ji suddenly gained some confidence after seeing Hulk's performance.
……
Back in New York, Li Ji went directly to Tony's villa. The artificial intelligence in the villa added Li Ji's information some time ago. Li Ji can enter the villa without training Tony. 35xs
Tony hasn't come back yet, but the scene in the villa is well-arranged. In the central hall, a huge Christmas tree is hung with gift boxes and stands up to the roof. The surroundings were also hung with various Christmas supplies. Li Ji took one look at the decoration and knew it was Pep's handiwork.
"Tony will not do such boring things. He will only invite a lot of Elk girls to have a party on Christmas Eve." Li Ji walked into the bathroom. The disadvantage of being in Antarctica is that you can't take a shower. Although the weather in Antarctica is , and it won't make people dirty, but Li Ji still feels uncomfortable.
After lying in the bathtub and taking a nice bubble bath, Li Ji wore Tony's nightgown and lay down directly on the sofa.
"It's a bit short. Hey, that guy Tony isn't tall." With a snap of his fingers, the lights automatically dimmed, and Li Ji closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
……
"Hey, Gage." A female voice suddenly sounded in Li Ji's ear, which made Li Ji jump up and sit up.
"Pep?" Li Ji looked at the blanket on his body, "Is this what you covered me with?"
"No, Tony helped you cover it." Pep, who was squatting next to the sofa, stood up. "It's time to get up. The turkey hasn't been killed yet. Tony may need your help."
Li Ji stood up, stretched, and walked to the garden behind the villa. Tony was holding a machete and pointed it at a dark turkey. 35xs
"Tony, do you need my help?" Li Ji said with a smile, but he sat down and looked like he was watching a show.
"No, I've asked Jarvis to help me analyze the best way to slaughter this turkey. Just watch!" Tony's body was hunched over, holding a machete in both hands. He looked very funny, which made Li Ji a little bit unbearable. Live and laugh.
"What are you laughing at? Are you questioning Jarvis's professionalism? If you had Jarvis as your assistant, you would never wear such a short nightgown!" Tony said scornfully.
"This is your nightgown." Li Ji retorted.
"Oh! God, no wonder I often feel that my nightgown is one size too big for no reason. It turns out it's all your fault!" Tony came over and put the machete in Li Ji's hand. "In order to compensate me, you have to help me." I killed the turkey.”
Li Ji did not take the machete, stood up, walked to the turkey, stretched out his hand, and the inner abdomen of his index finger and middle finger clamped the red neck of the turkey, crushing the bones. "Do the underwear also feel one size larger?" ?”
"Oh, shift!" Tony cursed, and Li Ji threw down the dead turkey and came back, "You don't need my help with hair removal or anything like that." (As long as you understand, I'm afraid of being blocked. that word)
"Those Pep will take care of it." Tony put the machete aside and walked into the villa.
"It's really Tony's style." Li Ji spread his hands.
What happened next basically had nothing to do with Tony and Li Ji. It was all Pep's business. Tony ran to the underground research room, while Li Ji sat on the sofa and watched TV. Li Ji switched between many Christmas programs on TV at will.
"Happy Christmas Eve." Li Ji's cell phone rang suddenly. It turned out to be a text message from Peter. Li Ji was about to reply when his cell phone rang suddenly. It was Alvas' call.
"Hey, Alvas." Li Ji answered the phone.
"Hey, Lee, my brother, how are you doing?" Alvas greeted.
"Not bad, how about you? Is ardyh's financial situation better?" Li Jidao.
"Much better, thanks to your funds." Alvar said cheerfully.
"Then you called me this time specifically to tell me a happy Christmas Eve?" Li Ji asked. Alvas always went to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason, so the call was definitely not just a greeting.
"Um, well, the most important thing is to wish you and Mr. Tony Stark a happy Christmas Eve, but there are also a few other little things." Alvas said.
"Tell me." Li Ji's guess was indeed correct.
"Can the second tranche of funds originally scheduled to arrive in February be brought forward a little earlier? The company's research has made breakthrough progress, so the funding gap has become larger." Alvas said hesitantly.
"Is that it? I will tell Tony. If Tony agrees, Jeff Bridges will come to negotiate with you after the Christmas vacation." Li Ji smiled. Of course, he didn't tell the truth. He was not prepared to tell Tony anything, let alone lend money to ardyh Group in advance.
"Thank you so much, my brother, and wish you a happy Christmas Eve." Alvas said excitedly. He did not expect that things would go so smoothly.
"You're welcome, Alvas, we are good brothers! I also wish you a happy Christmas Eve." Li Ji said cheerfully, and then hung up the phone.
"It seems that there is something wrong with the ardyh Group. It should be revealed soon. It's really good news that makes people happy on Christmas Eve." Li Ji wiped his chin and pondered secretly.
"Happy Christmas Eve! Li." The phone rang again, this time it was a text message from Wendell.
Li Ji looked at the few contacts on his phone and chose to send a group message of "Happy Christmas Eve."
"Tony, I received a message from Gage Stark, do you want to read it?" Jarvis suddenly reported in the underground research room.
"Don't look at it. It must be a group message for Christmas Eve. That kid is too lazy to even send a message manually. He will die of laziness sooner or later."
