Remember [New] for a second,! In geniuses like Stark, the arrogance in his heart is often higher than the sky.

In the original plot, why did Stark suffer from extreme anxiety after the Qitarui invasion? Aside from his sense of duty as a superhero, it's also partly because of his proud nature.

You know, he publicly said in an interview with the media that "I alone can maintain world peace". Maybe other people didn't take this sentence to heart, but with Stark's proud character, he can't do anything that he doesn't admit... That is, when he said that sentence , he has actually blocked his own retreat.

In this time and space, Stark was once made difficult by the official and said the same thing.

So, after the last alien invasion incident, especially after learning that his friend Shi Xiaolei disappeared for no reason, and he didn't know where he was going or when he would come back, Stark, like in the original plot, inevitably fell into anxiety. Suffered from severe anxiety.

Although the mind scepter was sent to other places along with Shi Xiaolei, which eliminated the possibility of Stark's research on mind gems to create Ultron in advance, but in the final analysis, there is only one missing material without mind gems. Stark's research It will definitely not stop because of this, and it is even less likely to give up.

In fact, during the time when Shi Xiaolei was away, Stark was in retreat almost all the time.

In just half a year, he not only developed hundreds of new types of steel armor, but also spent a lot of time and effort to design several exaggerated defense plans.

For example, building an artificial star ring in low-Earth orbit, and equipping a large number of defense equipment on the star ring around the earth to deal with the enemy from outer space; It can be self-sufficient to a certain extent and can act as a large-scale living base for fire in a crisis of extinction; for example...

Either way, it will cost a lot of money and manpower.

To put these plans into practice, there are more details to consider.

If someone else designs, even if a team of 100 people is formed, it will take several years to sort out the details of the plan and make reasonable and feasible arrangements for each link. With Stark, each proposal only took him about a month.

what does this mean?

Even with Jarvis on the side, Stark still consumed a lot of energy and time.

The extent of his efforts and intentions has exceeded the limit that a normal person can bear. It is no exaggeration to say that he had already entered a state of overdrafting himself at that time.

As Stark's bedside person, what would Pepper think in his heart after seeing Stark's changes and witnessing his almost self-abuse behavior?

Nothing but worry.

In order to persuade Stark, Pepper worked hard.

But Stark has already got into the horns, and his stubbornness is far more than usual, and he doesn't listen to persuasion at all.

As a last resort, Pepper could only resort to the last resort-to sacrifice himself and try his best to soothe the manic Stark, even if he would be injured, he would not hesitate.

Well, with Stark's love for Pepper, it won't hurt Pepper.

Valley Lizard But then again, Pepper's use of his body as bait this time has certainly diverted Stark's attention to a certain extent, but it still left some side effects in the end.

At this point, you may have guessed the answer.

That's right, Pepper Pepper is pregnant.

"What? Dude, what did you say?" After receiving Stark's call, Shi Xiaolei suspected that he had heard it wrong: "April Fool's Day has already passed, you..."

"I'm serious~!" How can I make fun of Shi Xiaolei, Stark on the other end of the phone is so excited that he can't control himself: "I just checked it, it's true. I'm going to be a father, ha Hahaha~!"

"Really?" Feeling the joy in Stark's tone, Shi Xiaolei finally dispelled his doubts and followed suit: "When did it happen? You said you just checked? Are you in the hospital now? Which hospital? "

"No, no, we're not in the hospital." Stark continued laughing: "That's the way it is, I just saw that Pepper seemed a little uncomfortable, and I asked Jarvis to scan her. Guess what? , It turns out that she didn't eat a bad stomach and made her sick, but she was pregnant with my child. Hahahaha, that's morning sickness, it's morning sickness, man, do you know how happy I am now?"

"I heard it, haha, man, congratulations." Feeling happy for his friend, Shi Xiaolei suggested: "What are you waiting for, hurry up and arrange it. I think it must be done well for such a happy thing. Let's have a party for the two of you to celebrate. By the way, man, you're going to be a dad, shouldn't it be time to think about getting married? Well, let me give you an idea on how Marriage proposal?"

"Hey, you're right, I want to propose to Xiao Chili. Well, this matter can't be taken lightly. I must prepare the most romantic occasion for her..."

Excited to the extreme, Stark's mind was already in a mess, and he couldn't maintain his usual rationality at all.

Even the words that he said were topsy-turvy and incoherent.

"Tsk tsk. Listening to your tone, you are about to explode with joy, right? Dude, I don't even know what to say, uh~, it's good anyway." Although I can't see the expression, I can see the feeling through the conversation~ lightnovelpub.net~ Shi Xiaolei has already guessed what a friend looks like.

I want to make a joke, but I think this time doesn't seem right, and Stark is about to get nervous...

Shi Xiaolei could only laugh, then changed his words and persuaded: "Hey, man, calm down first. Listen, you are about to become a father, at this time, you have to look like a father. You What do you say?"

"You're right, you're right, I have to calm down, um, calm down."

"Come on, follow my command, take a deep breath. Breathe in~~~, breathe out~~, take it slow."

"...No, man, I still can't help it. I just want to laugh, what should I do?"

"...Then go and laugh." He couldn't help rolling his eyes, but thinking of Stark's current mood, Shi Xiaolei laughed again: "Pepper is by your side, give me the phone. She, I haven't congratulated her yet. Hey, be careful, don't be fussy, Pepper is an important person now, don't touch her."

"Oh, I see, I asked her to tell you. What, she's pregnant, don't talk too long..."

"I know, I know."
