Soon, filming began. Because everyone had had a great time yesterday, they were all highly motivated, much to the director's satisfaction. Filming proceeded very smoothly.
However, problems soon arose! Christine's filming went wrong.
Today's filming included a scene where the male and female leads were intimate. Adam and Christine didn't know each other beforehand, and since he's a man, the scene was written to be quite explicit, requiring the actress to appear completely nude.
Kristen had previously expressed reservations about this role and did not want to perform it herself. However, her assistant and agency pressured her with the contract, so she reluctantly agreed to act, since she still had to live, right?
But things are different now, because after Adam learned what was going to be filmed next, he stopped the crew and prepared to rewrite the script.
“I disagree! This plot is brilliantly written and doesn’t need to be changed. In fact, it could be a highlight of our movie!” Alice retorted to Adam’s request with displeasure.
But Adam wouldn't let his woman suffer, so he said, "This part of the plot really needs to be changed, or we'll use a stand-in!"
Alice immediately exclaimed, "A body double?! This wasn't mentioned when we signed the contract, Mr. Adam! This is work! Even though you two are dating, you need to understand that since Christine chose to be an actress, she must respect this job. And since you've found an actress as your girlfriend, you should be prepared for this! Besides, it's too late to find a body double now!"
Adam didn't care about any actor's mental or psychological preparation, and said coldly, "Ms. Alice! This is my demand!"
Alice was initially a little angry, but hearing Adam's cold tone, she immediately remembered his identity and thought helplessly, "That's why I don't want to deal with these people. Sigh!"
Adam, noticing Director Alice's somewhat distracted expression, frowned and said, "Director Alice?!?"
Director Alice snapped out of her daze and said, "Alright, since you're the investor, you get to decide. But you can't change all of Christine's scenes, or you'll ruin the movie!"
Adam knew this, of course, so he had just come up with an idea and said, "You guys shoot the other parts first. Leave the kissing and bed scenes with Christine for last. I'll handle it in another way."
Director Alice hesitated for a moment after hearing this, then said, "Sigh, okay, I'll make the arrangements!"
Alice left before Adam could respond. She was genuinely angry and secretly decided never to work with Dawn Film Company again. This guy was too difficult to please. What if he fell in love with another woman in the next movie? Would he only be able to make gay movies in the future? Just thinking about it was terrifying.
After Director Alice left, Christine, who had been silently staying by Adam's side, softly said, "Thank you, Adam!"
She was very reluctant to act in intimate scenes; hugging and kissing in a misaligned position were already her limit. In the past, she was blackmailed by the company with contracts and couldn't refuse, but now that she has Adam, she won't compromise herself.
Adam smiled calmly and said, "Silly girl, don't be so polite with me. If I can't even protect my own girlfriend, what kind of man am I? Alright, don't overthink it. Get ready for your next scene. I'm going to check on Logan; he's leaving today."
Christine nodded and said, "Okay, I'm going to film now." She then pecked Adam on the lips and ran off.
Adam smiled slightly, then called Susan over, told her where he was going, and asked her to take good care of Christine before leaving the film crew.
After a fast drive, Adam arrived at the Wanderer's Bar again half an hour later, where he found Logan in the bustling backyard, where Logan was boxing against someone. He was casually fooling the burly man in front of him, fighting against someone who looked even bigger than him.
After seeing this, Adam laughed and called out, "Hey, Logan, I'm here!"
After hearing this, Logan forced his opponent back, then turned to Adam and said, "Haha, you're too late! If you hadn't come, I might have already set off."
Adam shrugged and said, "You know what I do. I just finished dealing with a problem and rushed over here."
The two men were chatting happily, which angered the burly man who was making a fistfight. He gritted his teeth, thinking, "Since you look down on me and turn your backs on me while I'm fighting, then I'll show you what the consequences of angering Madman Zack are!"
Thinking this, he pulled out his belt and struck Logan hard, but how could such a small move possibly escape the notice of Wolverine, a mutant with the instincts of a wild beast?
With a spinning kick, the 100-kilogram giant was sent flying off the ground with a loud thud, then slammed heavily into the barbed wire, groaning and struggling but unable to get up again.
Logan lit a cigar, went to the fat host's side, received his payment, and then went to Adam's side.
Logan waved the money in his hand and said, "Come on, it's on me today!"
Adam didn't stand on ceremony and said, "Alright, let's drink until we drop!" He then went back to the bar with Logan, ordered a drink, and started drinking.
Logan took a deep drag on his cigar and said, "Hey bro, how was your night? Pretty good haul, huh? That girl was gorgeous."
Adam chuckled and said, "Hey buddy, I think I'm in love! It's funny that I didn't do anything last night, isn't it?"
Logan already knew Adam's identity, and therefore knew that Adam frequently appeared in entertainment reports and was jokingly referred to by the media along with his brother Tony Stark.
Logan was skeptical that Adam would actually fall in love, saying, "Aha, congratulations then! Looks like you really are going to fall in love, hehe. Cheers to New York for losing one less playboy!"
Adam didn't explain after reading it, and drank a glass with Logan. Suddenly remembering the actress, he said jokingly, "Oh, right, before I came here, an actress begged me to get your phone number back. Looks like you're not simple either, making a star fall for you so easily."
Logan, no young heartthrob, chuckled upon hearing this: "Really? Too bad I don't have a phone, otherwise I would definitely tell her. You know, she was absolutely amazing last night. I don't think I've ever met anyone so hot, so hot!"
Just then, the bar door opened and a young, pretty girl walked in somewhat awkwardly, drawing everyone's attention, as it was rare for such a beautiful woman to enter this place.

---------------------------------------------- -
Mary, a mischievous girl, was originally a beautiful girl living in a happy family with a boyfriend who wasn't particularly handsome but loved her very much. Although Mary wasn't sure if she loved him very much, she felt that their relationship had reached the point where it could take things further, so on a romantic Saturday, she brought her boyfriend home.
Mary's parents were also very satisfied with her boyfriend. After chatting for a while, they gave the young couple some time to chat. Mary happily took her boyfriend to visit her bedroom and told him about some of her thoughts after graduating from high school.
We all know that when a man and a woman are alone together, especially if they are interested in each other, they will definitely want to do something romantic. So, they naturally kiss. Well, that's normal, isn't it? Young people are always like that.
However, the problem arose with Mary. The X-gene hidden within her awakened under these circumstances, turning her into a mutant. As a result, her uncontrollable mutant abilities almost caused her to mummyize her boyfriend.
"Ah!!!" A pitiful scream made Mary's parents, who were chatting downstairs, rush into Mary's bedroom.
Mary's father glanced at Mary, then noticed the boy lying on the bed trembling, and exclaimed, "Quick, call an ambulance!"
Mary's mother, concerned for her child, asked, "Mary, what happened?"
Mary was terrified and kept crying, saying, "I only touched him, really, I didn't mean to hurt him."
Upon hearing this, Mary's mother prepared to go over and comfort her child, but the sensitive Mary dared not let her mother touch her, and cried out, "Don't touch me!"
After seeing this, Mary's father shouted, "Quickly, call an ambulance!"
Mary's mother had no choice but to go outside and call an ambulance. When the ambulance arrived, the doctor diagnosed the boy with the illness, but Mary continued to cry and said it was her fault. Mary's parents frowned slightly but said nothing.
A few weeks passed, and Mary's boyfriend left her. Mary then noticed the difference in herself.
Just then, the existence of mutants was exposed. Mary's parents were worried that their child would be arrested by the police, so they agreed to let Mary leave the United States alone. After all, as ordinary people, they were also a little afraid of their child, and Mary leaving on her own was the best choice.
Faced with this situation, Mary was initially frustrated, so she decided to visit Canada, a place she had always wanted to go to, and spent nearly a week on her solo trip.
That day, she flagged down a truck and asked the driver to take her to Lafite City. She fell asleep in the truck because of the long journey. After a few hours, the driver woke her up and told her that they had arrived.
Mary frowned and looked around, then said, "Hey, I need to get to Raffi City!"
The driver grunted and said, "This is Raffi City!" He then pointed to an old sign that read "Rofie City Town," clearly indicating that he had misunderstood her.
Seeing that the driver had left, Mary sighed. She felt a little hungry, glanced at the homeless bar across the street, and prepared to go in to get something to eat, and then see if there was a driver who could give her a ride to continue her journey.
Mary walked into the bar and noticed that everyone seemed to be staring at her. Feeling a little awkward, she went to the bar counter, ordered a coffee and some snacks from the owner, ate them carefully, and quietly observed her surroundings.
Adam and Logan were sitting not far from Mary, enjoying their drinks.
Just then, the bar's television began broadcasting news about the Mutant Registration Act, drawing everyone's attention. The news reported that a joint international conference would be held soon on Ellis Island in Manhattan to discuss matters concerning mutants.
Logan paused slightly after hearing this, but didn't say anything.
Adam scoffed and said, "These politicians are really strange. They'd love for the sky to fall. It's one thing for the US to have its own mutant registration bill, but they want to create something like the United Nations. Isn't that just stirring up a hornet's nest?"
Logan took a sip of his drink and said, "This has nothing to do with us. We'll just drink and ignore it!"
Adam shrugged, thinking, 'How could it be unrelated? As a superhero, I definitely have to intervene when humans and mutants clash. This is just asking for trouble. I was finally getting around to having a proper romance. Oh well! Looks like I'll have to go back to New York tomorrow. Who knows how much trouble these mutants will cause in New York this time.'
Logan looked at it and asked, "What's wrong?"
Adam said, “It looks like I’ll have to go back to New York tomorrow. I’m a little worried about home because I’m afraid some extremists among the mutants might use this as an excuse to cause trouble.”
Logan didn't ask any further questions after hearing this, and said, "Okay, I'll find you for drinks next time I go to New York."
Adam laughed and said, "Haha, it's a deal then. I'll be waiting for you in New York. Oh, by the way, here's my business card. It has my private number on it, which very few people know. Call me when the time comes. But you'll need to get a cell phone too, otherwise it'll be too much trouble."
Logan put the business card away, took a puff of his cigarette, and said, "Heh, it's a habit, I haven't changed it yet."
Just then, Zack, who had been knocked unconscious by Logan, walked over with a few people.
He glared at Logan and said, "Hey kid, give me back the money you won from me. I know what you are now."
Logan glanced at him indifferently and said, "Get lost!"
Adam scoffed, "Hey buddy, I advise you to watch yourself. You said you know who he is, and you still dare to talk to him like that?"
Zack said coldly, "Hmph, it's none of your business, pretty boy!"
Adam sneered, "It seems some people won't understand the extent of the trouble they've gotten themselves into until they've been taught a lesson!"
Zach, however, was not afraid of Adam's 'threat' because he had the upper hand in number. He pulled out a dagger and pointed it at Logan, saying, "Hey, hand over all my money, or I'll make you bleed!"
Logan was furious. He stood up abruptly, lifted Zack up with one hand, and slammed him against a nearby pillar. With his other hand, a gleaming claw flashed, and he said calmly, "Do you want to die?"
Adam laughed and said, "If you don't court death, you won't die!" After saying that, he used his super speed to knock out the troublemakers.
The bar owner, seeing the adamantine claws deep within Logan's fists and Adam's superhuman speed, frowned, pulled out a shotgun, pointed it at Adam and Logan, and said, "Get out of my bar, you monsters!"
Adam frowned upon hearing this and said, "If I were you, I wouldn't say that!"
Upon hearing this, the boss coldly said, "Get out of here!" Then he clicked the barrel of his hunting rifle, preparing to fire.
Mary, who had been watching the area closely, couldn't help but warn worriedly, "Hey, be careful!"
Adam smiled and glanced at her after hearing this, then melted the tip of the shotgun with a heat ray, saying calmly, "These are useless against us. You'd better not trust your weapons too much next time!"
Adam had put on makeup when he came out, so no one here recognized him. Moreover, there were no surveillance devices in this small town bar, so he could use his superpowers without any worries, though of course he wouldn't hurt anyone.
Everyone was terrified by Adam and Logan, staring blankly, trembling, afraid that Adam and Logan would kill them.
Logan frowned and said, "Looks like we have to leave!" He then threw Zack to the ground, clapped his hands, and walked out.
Adam shrugged, then looked at Mary and said, "I think you should come with us. After all, you just warned us that they're definitely going to do something to you!"
Adam noticed the girl's kind reminder, so he was reluctant to leave her alone in this chaotic bar.
Mary also had the idea of going with Adam and Logan. After all, this was the first time she had seen people like herself, which made her feel a sense of familiarity and that she was no longer alone.
So she smiled and said, "Yes, thank you, I'm Little Rascal, sir!" Then she left the bar with Adam and Logan.
Chapter Twenty-Seven: Back to New York
When Adam left the bar, he realized it was already the early hours of the next day. He and Logan had been drinking in the bar all night. Adam couldn't help but click his tongue and think to himself, "Looks like Logan has really improved my alcohol tolerance, haha."
At this moment, Logan said to Adam, "Although I knew you were not simple before, I did not expect you to be this strong!" Logan found that he could not keep up with the speed of his opponent and couldn't help but sigh.
Upon hearing this, Adam laughed and said, "You're not simple either. Now I know how you got the nickname Wolverine from those claws."
Logan waved his hand and said, "Likewise, haha, I should also be leaving. Let's say goodbye."
