"Gwen, where would you like to go?" Xinian asked with a smile.

"As long as I'm with you, I'll do anything..."

Gwen didn't dare look him in the eye and said in a slightly shy voice.

This is the girlfriend mode, not the childhood sweetheart mode.

"Wouldn't it be a waste to come all the way to New York?"

hope Nian thought for a moment, then suddenly had an idea: "Let's interview some passersby."

"Okay... umm? Interviewing passersby?"

Gwen responded instinctively at first, then opened her bright, jewel-like eyes wide with confusion.

Hello, ma'am.

As if by magic, hope Nian pulled a microphone from his pocket and said to a passing lady, "We are the student news team from the local school. What do you think of Spider-Woman?"

"That new superhero who joined the Avengers?"

After receiving confirmation, the woman repeatedly praised her, saying, "Both of my daughters like her very much and are her fans! Isn't she wonderful?"

"Oh, there are fans!" Xinian winked at Gwen next to him.

Gwen blushed deeply, feeling utterly mortified.

On the street, some passersby eagerly joined in after hearing Xinian interviewing people about Spider-Woman.

"Spider-Woman, swinging around the city like that, isn't that so cool!"

"My handbag was stolen on the street, and Spider-Woman got it back for me."

“My neighbor’s daughter was rescued by Spider-Woman when her house caught fire last time.”

"Look, the clothes I'm wearing have a Spider-Woman cartoon design on them!"

……

"My new goddess, Spider-Woman!"

"So who was your last goddess?"

"Need I say more? Of course, it's the silver-haired goddess!"

"...Never mind, I didn't ask!"

……

More and more passersby gathered around to discuss the topic, and during this time, Xinian also saw all sorts of Spider Woman merchandise.

Cartoon T-shirts, spider web chocolates, spider woman masks...

Clearly, Spider-Woman's popularity in New York is now catching up with Iron Man and Captain America.

After all, Spider-Woman is very young, symbolizing a younger generation of superheroes.

She is the second female hero in the Avengers. The first female hero, Black Widow, usually does not show her face in New York City because she is also an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

A while later.

Xinian pulled Gwen along, emerging from the tightly packed crowd, giving off a sense of fleeing in panic.

Only after running a hundred meters away did hope Nian pat his chest, still shaken, and say, "If they find out I was on a date with Spider-Woman, won't they gang up on me?"

"No way!"

Gwen spat, a faint blush remaining on her face. Although she felt like she had died on the spot, she was still very happy to have received the approval of the general public.

"See, Gwen. Just be yourself and don't put so much pressure on yourself," Xinian said with a smile, offering encouragement and support.

pressure?

Gwen looked up curiously, wondering when she had started feeling stressed.

Although she did feel the gap in strength as a superhero when competing with Kara at the same time, she did not feel too much pressure.

I just feel it's a real shame that I lost the right to have my first date.

"I'll take you to relax this weekend," hope Nian said with an expression of confidence, full of determination.

Relax?

Gwen was visibly stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and some unpleasant images and the kind of words Kara had said before flashed through her mind.

moment.

Gwen's forehead was getting so hot that it was steaming.

"Do you have any places you'd like to go?" Xinian asked.

"The hotel where you played?"

Gwen shook her head violently, nearly throwing her baseball cap off, her voice barely audible: "I don't know. But, it's all fine..."

"It will be all right?"

Xinian glanced at Gwen curiously, then said, "By the way, I know a good place, let's go there first!"

Hey, are we going now?!

Gwen was caught off guard and couldn't help but glance at the sky.

It's still daytime...

"What's wrong? Don't you want to go?" hope Nian asked.

"It's not that I don't want to. It's just that I'm not mentally prepared."

Gwen calmed herself down, bit her lip lightly, and hugged Xinian's arm, saying, "Let's go!"

Chapter 257, The Company of the Future

Brooklyn, adjacent to Manhattan Island, is a prime commercial area where land is extremely valuable.

A towering skyscraper sits aloof here, soaring into the clouds; compared to ordinary skyscrapers, it seems like a child.

Behind this commercial building lies a vast manufacturing plant, with numerous factory buildings and the silhouette of a large aerospace rocket faintly visible!

Xinian led Gwen to the plaza in front of the building.

He looked up, so high that his hat almost fell off.

A silver, crown-shaped logo can be seen prominently displayed at the very top of the company building, whose overall exterior shines brilliantly in the sunlight.

From time to time.

Elite individuals dressed in suits were seen going in and out of the front door via the steps.

"So this is the place you were talking about," Gwen said, suddenly realizing.

"Where did you think this was? What kind of mental preparation do you need to be for coming here?" hope Nian smiled.

Gwen blushed and didn't reply.

"let's go."

Xinian held Gwen's small hand and walked up the stairs step by step toward the main commercial building.

……

The lobby on the first floor of a super-large skyscraper.

At the reception desk in the center of the main hall, a beautiful and intelligent woman, dressed in a professional bodycon dress and wearing a silver crown badge, stood straight.

When facing people, she displays a perfectly gentle smile.

When no one is paying attention.

The woman puffed out her cheeks in annoyance, sat down slightly on the chair at the reception desk, and rubbed her waist, which was cinched by her dress.

"This is really tiring," Daisy Louise muttered to herself.

After the bizarre incident in Paris, France, the professor was arrested and hospitalized by local police on suspicion of mental illness due to his streaking and constant shouting about "celestial unity," and his astronomy research group was disbanded.

Actually, Daisy Louise wasn't originally an astronomy major; she had only been helping her best friend Jane Foster for the past two or three years.

Recently, Jane and Thor broke up again, and her astronomical career has been temporarily put on hold.

Daisy Louise then returned to her home in New York to seek a way out.

To her great surprise,

The resume I submitted to this company actually got accepted!

She became a member of Future Era Company!

Although he was just an ordinary receptionist, the company's first two huge investments after the mysterious tycoon acquired and renamed it Future Age came from Stark Industries and Wayne Industries, respectively!

Overnight.

Future Era has become a highly sought-after tech company that countless elites are scrambling to get into!

Moreover, Future Age Corporation's salaries are not low; they are almost comparable to those of Stark Industries for the same position!

Daisy naturally wanted to do a good job and later bring her best friend Jane along.

There was only one thing about this company that puzzled Daisy—

It's been a week since I started this job.

Daisy had never met the company's chairman, and even the senior management were a mystery to everyone in the company!

The company has only one president's secretary named "Alice," who methodically assigns weekly and daily tasks to each position, giving Daisy the feeling of receiving system quests in a video game...

The company has a clear system of rewards and punishments.

Bonuses or promotion points are awarded for completing tasks regularly or exceeding targets.

Delays or failure to meet standards

The next day, the person might be fired on the spot.

Daisy initially thought the system was harsh and impersonal, but after working there, she realized that Alice, the president's secretary, assigned tasks to every position, and even every employee, that were all within their capabilities. A little slacking off was acceptable, but excessive laziness or lack of effort would result in being ruthlessly dismissed.

Once you dedicate your energy to your work, promotions are undoubtedly much faster than in other companies.
