A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 243 He adopted us, so who are you?

"In fact, Wanda, it was Tony who adopted you and your brother back then..." Seeing this, Levi prepared to say a few good words for Tony.

"What? He's the one who adopted us?" Before Li Wei could finish speaking, the twins couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Victor, this is a joke, isn't it? If Tony Stark adopts us, then who are you?" Levi had already introduced himself when boarding the spaceship, but he only gave his name and told the twins to just call him by it. However, believing him to be the person they had admired for five years, Wanda and Pietro insisted on calling Levi "Sir" throughout the journey.

But now, when Levi tells her that Tony Stark is their adoptive father, Wanda is devastated, calling out Levi's name and questioning him with disbelief.

"Wanda, I know that you harbor deep resentment towards Tony because of what happened back then. In fact, he also regrets what happened back then. But I think you should understand that it wasn't entirely his fault, and he has always wanted to make amends." Clearly, Levi hadn't yet realized the seriousness of the problem, nor did he understand the real reason for Wanda's anger.

If he were to use the power of the Time Stone, he would realize that the twins no longer care about the hatred from back then.

However, not long after obtaining the Time Stone, he realized that this power was not so easy to control, nor was it without cost.

If the Time Stone were truly that useful, the Ancient One wouldn't have kept it unused, and Doctor Strange wouldn't have needed to fight the Endgame.

Besides, twins aren't enemies or any major threat. Li Wei would be incredibly foolish to use the Time Stone to investigate the past and future of these two children.

"I didn't say anything about him, I'm asking you, who the hell are you!" Wanda said, somewhat exasperated, even swearing.

"Me? I'm Tony's partner. The League, the superhero team behind Iron Man that's been rumored to be, was formed by Tony and me." Levi finally realized that Wanda was asking about his identity.

"So you're not his subordinate, right?" Wanda, who had been somewhat angry, suddenly calmed down after hearing Li Wei explain his identity and asked again.

"Of course not..." Li Wei answered without hesitation.

"Were you already together in 2003?" Wanda asked again.

"That's the gist of it, but I feel like there's something off about how you're describing it!" Li Wei frowned upon hearing this, and then replied.

"I understand, but there's still one thing I don't understand: why would the famous Tony Stark notice two nobodys like us?" Wanda turned to Tony, who hadn't spoken until now, and asked.

"Actually, Victor told me," Tony said truthfully, as he wouldn't stoop to lying about something like this.

"I understand. So, actually, adopting us was your idea, Victor, right?" Wanda's face lit up with a barely perceptible smile.

"You can't say that. I did suggest to Tony that we provide you with resettlement and compensation this year, but in the end, it was Tony who decided to adopt you himself," Li Wei explained.

"I see, I understand!" Wanda smiled and said to Tony, "I've heard so much about you, Mr. Tony Stark. Thank you for taking care of my brother and me over the past five years."

"No, no, no, you're welcome. It's what I should do, considering what happened back then..." Faced with Wanda's sudden smile, Tony, who was usually calm, actually became nervous.

"Let's not bring up what happened back then. My brother and I aren't ungrateful people. What happened back then was mainly the responsibility of that XXXX. You're just a businessman, and you've done more than enough for us in the past five years!" Wanda interrupted Tony before he could finish speaking.

Wanda's words flattered Tony.

To be honest, he had simulated the meeting between the two parties countless times in his mind.

I imagined all sorts of reactions from the twins after we met.

But I never imagined that the twins would so easily let bygones be bygones.

This was quite a pleasant surprise for Tony.

After all, every time he imagined something, he was putting himself in the twins' shoes...

"Or is it that, Mr. Stark, you don't actually believe we've let go?" Wanda's face flashed with a hint of sarcasm when she saw Tony's stunned expression.

"No, no, no, I'm just happy, really, just happy," Tony hurriedly said upon hearing this.

"That's good. Didn't you say you were inviting us to dinner? I'm starving!" Wanda said.

"Yes, yes, come with me, dinner is ready. Most of the dishes were made by Victor. Let me tell you, if Victor says his cooking skills are second in the world, then absolutely no one would dare to say they are number one!" Tony happily led Wanda into the building.

Li Wei shook his head, marveling at Wanda's eccentric temperament; her expression had changed several times in just a short while.

Pietro was even more bewildered as he watched his sister and Tony chatting and walking together.

No, I didn't say a word, so how can you represent everything?

And you weren't like that when I mentioned Tony Stark's attitude before!

"Hey, what are you standing there for? Come on!" Yelena nudged Pietro from behind and looked at him with a slightly strange expression.

She always felt that Pietro was a bit dull, not at all like Wanda, who was so open-minded.

"Oh, come on, come on. By the way, according to what Victor just said, you're a superhero too?" Pietro asked Yelena as they walked, snapping out of his daze.

"Of course!" Yelena nodded.

"Do you have a code name? Like Iron Man's?" Pietro continued to ask.

"Of course, I used to be the Black Widow..." Yelena replied casually.

"Wait, Black Widow? Isn't that Claire Wayan's codename from the Winter Guard?" Pietro interrupted.

"Um... she's kind of our senior, Black Widow isn't the only one. We can't finish talking about this topic in a short time. Besides, as I said, I used to be called Black Widow, now I'm called White Widow!" Yelena said.

"..."

"What's with that expression?" Yelena was a little angry when she saw Pietro's speechless look.

"It's nothing..."

"I can't be bothered with you... You have no taste!"
