Chapter 110
Chapter 110
The fact that Zhan knew Tony Stark was unexpected, but it was also reasonable.In any case, Stark started out in the military industry. By analogy, war is a flame, and weapons are catalysts. Stark's family is definitely well-respected as a catalyst maker.
"I will find time to help you find him, on the condition that you need to do me a small favor..."
In order to invite Warlock to help, Warlock prepared a lot of things that she might be interested in as a thank you gift, but she didn't expect that she set the conditions on her own.
"I'll do my best, what do you want me to do?"
"I want a mistletoe."
……
The bright and dazzling lights shine brightly on the Bingshan restaurant, and all the people who are close to the Bingshan restaurant will be in a trance.The moment we got off the car, the night turned into day, and the red carpet was spread all the way to the restaurant gate. The cameras in the hands of the reporters who were blocked outside the cordon kept ringing, awakening the trance of the guests.
Cars stopped constantly, and the people who got out of the cars were either rich or expensive, and they were big figures that most people in Gotham couldn't easily see.
Some held their female companions and waved to the reporters with a smile, while others strode straight into the restaurant with a straight face and treated the reporters as nothing.Regardless of their mood, they must show complete friendliness when they see the host of the banquet. After all, the host of the banquet is the always-hot Mayor Dorian.
"Mayor Dowling was young and promising, and Gotham's city appearance has improved a lot in the past two years." Mr. Lorenzo greeted Warlock with a glass of wine, his smiling eyes were full of scrutiny and judgment.
Warlock and Lorenzo clinked glasses and said: "It's all my job, nothing to brag about. My father has always worried that I am not mature enough to afford a city. He asked me to learn more from my uncles. I told you something funny about when I went to high school with you..."
Talking about Dade Dowling, the smile on Lorenzo's face stretched out with some sincerity.He and Dorian are classmates in high school. They say they are familiar with each other, but they are not very familiar with each other. It is just a friendship in a club, but this does not affect their development of contacts. After all, most of the time people like them socialize for the purpose of developing contacts.
Bruce Wayne arrived at the Iceberg restaurant a long time ago, and brought Jason with him.According to the established social rules, children should not be brought to such an obviously adult political banquet, but Warlock directly asked him to bring Jason along, and Bruce brought him.
"Bruce, the Iceberg Restaurant is the site of the Penguin. Why did Warlock choose this place?" Jason climbed the guardrail on the second floor and looked down, his eyes full of curiosity.
"Warlock and Oswald Copperpot are very good friends." Bruce explained, straightening the bow tie with one hand, and quickly recorded the guests in the hall with his eyes.
Warlock also invited Harvey Dent to the banquet, and he couldn't feel anything on the first floor. Bruce looked down from the second floor and found that people on the first floor formed two circles around Warlock and Harvey.
The people surrounding Warlock formed three or four small circles, which showed that the circle to which Warlock belonged was also divided into different factions.The mutual checks between the different factions gave Warlock time to catch his breath, and there was no room for turning around.
Warlock stood at the very center and said something to three or two old gentlemen who had always been in high positions and looked very imposing at first sight. When listening, they would lean forward slightly, with the politeness and restraint of a junior.These people are acquaintances of Mr. Dowling, who are willing to help the younger generation. They are not too close to Warlock but they can help a lot.
Not far from Warlock, there is a small circle formed by Oswald Copperpot. Those people are family members who are related to Copperpot and Penguin at the same time. They are an important part of Warlock's family and a A bomb that could explode at any time.
As for the rest of the scattered groups, Bruce couldn't tell what these people were doing.
Turning his gaze to Harvey, Bruce froze for a moment. Harvey was surrounded by many people at the same time. When he was chatting with others, he didn't pull other people away. It seemed that the atmosphere was much better than Warlock's.
This is mainly because he has a good wife, Rachel, who has been helping Harvey maintain relationships, so that the atmosphere is not so awkward.
"Bruce?" Jason looked at Bruce suspiciously. He suddenly walked towards the stairs, which was completely different from what he had planned.
Jason trotted a few steps to keep up with Bruce, "Did you find something wrong? I heard that Penguin still runs an underground iceberg restaurant, which is an evil place. Shall we go to find the way now?"
"No, I'm going to help Warlock." Bruce had already stood at the foot of the stairs, and turned to look at Jason, "Wollock said this is a good opportunity to make an appearance. He will introduce you to some people in a while, but it hasn't arrived yet." Time, you can have fun here and eat something."
It wasn't until Bruce saw Rachel that he realized what he had forgotten. Whether he was the host or the guest, he was always the focus of the banquet. People would gather around him without him being too active.
But in this banquet, Warlock and Harvey are the protagonists. As Warlock's lover, he needs to stand by his side.
It is an attitude to manage contacts for him and help him appease his subordinates, even if he just stands there.
Warlock never hides his exhaustion from him, and Bruce wants to help but is worried that he will be self-defeating and complicate the two men's precarious relationship.
It was only after seeing Rachel that he realized how wrong he was. Warlock has always trusted him completely. He doesn't need to do anything by himself. He just needs to stand firmly by his side and give him more trust. And Warlock deserves that trust.
Warlock turned his back to the direction of the stairs, and he could see the new customers coming in through the door with his slightly squinted eyes, but he couldn't see anyone coming down the stairs. He could only hear the originally noisy hall quiet for a moment, and then erupted. Livelier conversation.
At Oswald's cue, Warlock looked back and was surprised to see Bruce walking beside him, smiling.
"Bruce?" Warlock thought he would stay upstairs to observe the situation, and his eyes were alert. This kind of time is a good opportunity to collect information. Something must have happened when Bruce came down?
"Is something wrong?"
Bruce saw Warlock's instantaneously changing eyes and slight body changes, and felt a little sour in his heart. What has become of him in Warlock's mind will give deep meaning to his every move in his heart.
He tilted his head slightly and winked at Warlock, and stood side by side with Volok, without making any gestures of blocking shoulders or holding hands, but whoever saw them could see the intimacy between the two.
Warlock realized something, looked at Bruce with wide eyes, slightly raised his lips, and returned his attention to social interaction only after Bruce's eyes signaled.
"Uncle Lyons, Uncle Bona, Uncle Lorenzo, this is my boyfriend, Bruce Wayne."
After Warlock introduced the two parties, Bruce reached out his hand, restrained his wantonness, and greeted the three old gentlemen very politely.
People who live in Gotham don't know the playboy Bruce Wayne's behavior, seeing such a Bruce Wayne feels strange.
Lorenzo was the last one to shake hands with Bruce, looked at Ruth and nodded secretly in his heart. Although there were a lot of gossip about Wayne before, it seems that he has calmed down now, and he should be serious.
Bruce's performance tonight was not the same as before. As soon as he appeared on Warlock, he put one-third of his attention on him. The confusion in his heart was getting bigger and bigger.
It wasn't until the speech was over and the dance started that Warlock had a chance to relax and be alone with Bruce.
Bruce took the time of Warlock's first dance without hesitation, put his arms around Warlock's waist, and compared the arc in his memory, Warlock has become a little thinner these days.
"Sorry, it was my mistake, I should have helped you share part of it." Bruce lowered his head slightly, meeting Warlock's gray-blue eyes like stars falling into the sea at night.
Warlock could feel Bruce's snort on his cheeks as he breathed, and his cheeks burned a thin blush.
He didn't understand what Bruce meant, and his eyes were blank, "What?"
Bruce took Warlock to spin in the center of the dance floor, and only Warlock could be seen in his eyes. The bright light allowed him to clearly see the blue color in Warlock's eyes, which could make non-human beings with physical fitness far superior to human beings so tired, How much did Warlock bear alone?
"I mean, during this time, I will try my best to help you and make you relax. The whole Gotham knows that I am your boyfriend, and I have to fulfill my boyfriend's responsibilities."
Warlock, who was trying to understand Bruce's meaning, hadn't sorted out his thoughts before Bruce stole a kiss, and his thoughts followed the kiss to other places.
Responsibilities of a boyfriend...
Warlock burned dazzling red from his neck, and his face was also a bit shy, and he stepped on Bruce's foot in a messy movement.
He is quite open in terms of desire, but he feels that saying such things in public may make others feel bad.
Bruce looked at Warlock's red earlobes, knowing that Warlock didn't know where he was going, and at the end of the song, he dragged Warlock to the lounge specially arranged for Warlock.
"I'll try to spare one night tomorrow, it's really inconvenient today." Seeing Bruce close the door of the lounge, Warlock said hastily, glancing at the bed in the lounge.
Bruce pressed Warlock's shoulders to make him sit on the sofa, and he stood behind the sofa and pressed Warlock's temples, "You've been too tired recently, and you'll wear yourself down. I always want not to mess with you, but I didn't think I could do anything for you, I should have shared some of the pressure for you."
Warlock narrowed his eyes slightly, but his brain didn't rest, and he quickly thought about the meaning of Bruce's words. Is it what he thought?
"I don't want to be a burden to you, Warlock. We are one, and I want to do something for you, something I can do to free you to do other things."
"I hope that I can be the string that binds the kite, so that you will not fly in the wrong direction, so that you... no matter where you fly, you can still remember the way back."
The author says:
★It has always been Warlock who ran after the master, this time it is the master's turn to go in Warlock's direction!
