Chapter 9 Family Hero

Hell's Kitchen, in front of the "Good Luck" restaurant.

"It seems like it's time to hire some people, otherwise we will have to close this restaurant for every large-scale mission." Chen Ye said as he looked at the "Temporarily Closed" sign at the door.

"Dr. Ethan, this is the restaurant. This is where we usually eat. The apartment is just behind the elevator at the main entrance on the right. Please sit here for a while. I'll take you upstairs to choose a room."

"You can treat this place like your own home. There aren't many people in the apartment right now. This is Hell's Kitchen after all, but I believe things will get better after a while." Chen Ye introduced to Dr. Ethan.

"Let's go home and share the money. Now that I have money, it's time to go to the bar next door to drink. I wonder if the bartender misses me." Deadpool cheered.

"You eat and drink my food every day, and all the money will be deducted from the commission later. It looks like your sister hasn't come back yet, Pietro." Chen Ye said as he pushed open the door.

"You haven't been back for a few days. Hurry up and clean up. It's all covered in dust." Chen Ye instructed them.

"You really should hire a waiter, Chen. You're so stingy." Deadpool complained, and the dogs Deadpool and Pietro nodded beside him.

Just as Chen Ye and his group were cleaning the restaurant, Tony Stark held a press conference on the other side.

Some people can never allow themselves to live a normal life like ordinary people.

Tony Stark is one of them. His experience in Afghanistan made him determined to close down the weapons department of Stark Group.

And this decision means that their company’s stock has been falling just like a certain stock in their motherland in the previous life.

At the restaurant bar, Chen Ye looked up at the TV, which was broadcasting Stark's press conference live.

In the news, Tony was seen sitting under the podium, but he didn’t take out a hamburger like in the movie, probably because he was full on the plane.

"Everybody sit down and be casual. Don't be so serious."

At this time, Miss Pepper Potts was standing outside the reporters, with a smile on her face, looking at Tony Stark sitting at the podium with satisfaction.

A man suddenly spoke to Pepper Potts, "Ms. Potts."

Hearing the voice, Pepper Potts turned to the person who spoke and replied, "It's me."

The man in front of him looked at Pepper Potts and said, "Would you like to chat for a few minutes?"

"Sorry, I'm not attending the press conference. If you have any questions, please ask Tony Stark. He's sitting there, but you have to line up," Pepper Potts refused.

At this time, the man explained to Pepper Potts: "I'm not a reporter. My name is Phil Coulson, and I'm affiliated with the Strategic Homeland Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency."

While handing out his business card to Pepper Potts.

Pepper Potts looked down at the business card Coulson handed over and said, "Your name is really hard to remember."

"What's going on with you? The Department of Defense and the FBI have already contacted us regarding Tony's kidnapping. So why don't you share your intelligence? You have to ask me one by one, wasting my time."

"Or is it that your Bureau of Land and Resources is not qualified to retrieve the documents?"

"We belong to another system and specialize in this matter," Coulson replied.

"We are here to learn more about how Tony Stark escaped and the details of Chen Ye and his gang who rescued him. If possible, please let us know."

After hearing this, Pepper Potts' face suddenly turned cold and she said, "Your department is really nosy. You weren't there when Tony disappeared. Now that he's safe, you're asking about him. I'll convey your message to Tony. As for whether he wants to look for you, that's his business."

"Okay, then we'll wait for your good news. Don't bother you for now. Thank you." Coulson replied with a smile, as if ignoring the slightly sarcastic words just now.

Tony Stark shared his experience in Afghanistan and subsequently decided to close down the weapons manufacturing division of Stark International.

When Stark announced that he would permanently close the weapons production department of Stark Group, Deadpool stood up, quickly knelt in front of Chen Ye, hugged Chen Ye's thighs and cried:

"Dear Chen, my favorite Chen, I know. You helped us short, right? Right!"

"Get lost! I told you not to buy from me, but now you're just dreaming!" Chen Ye kicked Deadpool away with disgust.

"No, no. Chen, you're the best." Deadpool walked over shamelessly on his knees and continued to rub Chen Ye's thigh with his black and red mask.

"Alright, alright, go away. At most I won't deduct your commission this time." Chen Ye ignored Deadpool's pestering.

"I didn't expect that he actually shut down Stark Group's weapons production department." Pietro said with a complicated expression.

"So, there are many things that Tony Stark may not know. Of course, I am not advising you to let go of your hatred, I just don't want you to be used by others." After all, Chen Ye is not a saintly bitch. It is impossible for him to advise others to let go of the fact that others killed his adoptive parents.

When nothing happened, I just wanted Pietro to understand the truth of the matter before making a decision.

"Well, let's not kill him for now. Let him live and let him atone for his sins. Let's see how he performs in the future. If he makes me dissatisfied, I will make a decision." Pietro said.

"Chen, how much money did you make this time?" Pietro continued to ask curiously, and Ethan on the side also cast a curious look.

"It's not much. The profit this time is just a small goal," Chen said calmly.

"How many!"

"Please, Chen, give me some. I've recently fallen in love with a pink sports car." Deadpool cried again.

"Pietro, I invested some money for you and your sister. I'm saving it for your dowry so that if you get married in the future, you can buy a small house outside." Chen Ye ignored the unreasonable Deadpool in front of him and said to Pietro.

"Thank you, Chen." Pietro said gratefully.

"Ding,"

"Congratulations to the host, Pietro Maximov's favorability has been raised to full stars (six stars maximum)"

"Congratulations, host. Pietro Maximov has become your family member."

"You gain all of Pietro Maximov's skills, and existing skills are automatically upgraded by one level."

"As the skills of the family members improve in the future, the host will also automatically improve."

"Congratulations to the host for reaching full stars for the first time and obtaining the full star reward title: Family Hero Lv1 (upgradable)"

"Family Hero Lv1: When there is a family member on the field, the host's combat power increases by 10%, and the host's family members' combat power increases by 5%."

Chen Ye became excited when he saw the generous reward and asked the system in his mind:

"This title of Family Hero is a bit ugly, right? Can we change the system? And what does this upgradeable mean? How do we upgrade it?"

The system replied: "Host, you must work hard to improve your friendship level. Only when you have full stars can you call them family. When the host has a certain number of family members, you can also awaken exclusive skills and more functions. Please don't just want to make new friends, but also care about your old friends occasionally."

After listening to this, Chen Ye began to think seriously.

"Ring, ring, ring" Chen Ye's cell phone ringing interrupted his thoughts.

Chen Ye picked up the phone, looked at the caller ID, and quickly answered: "Uncle Jin Bing, why are you calling me?"
