Hercules Walk

Chapter 5 Finalized
"OK, you're qualified."

Hearing what Wang Dali said, Pepper was already very satisfied.

Although her current situation is not good, it is not to the extent that someone dares to send gunmen to kill her blatantly. What needs to be guarded is the problem of vehicles and food.

Wang Dali's ability, which is similar to the sixth sense, really solved her urgent needs.

"The monthly salary is [-] U.S. dollars, and the insurance and benefits are included in the company's account. I will officially start work this afternoon. Is there a problem?"

"no problem."

As the deputy editor of the New York Times, Catherine can get almost this amount of money every month.With Wang Dali's background as a non-professional bodyguard, he is already very satisfied with getting so much money.

By the way, Pepper's current salary, excluding various bonuses, is [-] US dollars a month.

After the matter was finalized, Pepper immediately took Wang Dali to go through the procedures in the company's personnel department.Half an hour later, Wang Dali, who became a glorious new employee of Stark Corporation, left Stark Tower with his work ID and access card.

……

"Biscuits are all right, Miss Pepper."

Watching Pepper send away a female employee named Jenny who usually gets along well with her, Wang Dali nodded slightly to her.

Today is Pepper's birthday, and the other party sent a small box of biscuits said to be made by himself as a gift.

But before that, there were others with questionable gifts.It was a packaged plate of freshly baked golden cupcakes from a famous New York bakery.

"Dali, can you feel what the other party put in the cake?"

Pinning hope on his special ability, Pepper pointed to the cake box and asked Wang Dali.

"I do not know."

Unpacking, Wang Dali took a look at the golden-yellow soft cake exuding a faint sweet smell.The other party is indeed a famous brand in New York. Even the cookie-cutter cakes look so appetizing.

"However, it's good to try this kind of thing."

Gently opening his fingers, Wang Dali threw the small cake with ingredients into his mouth.Although Pepper was surprised, he didn't think Wang Dali would do this without certainty.

"Well, it tastes good."

Wang Dali said while feeling the effects of these cuties hidden in the cake on his body.

"Well, it promotes blood flow, speeds up metabolism, induces hormones to increase, and..."

"Enough, I know what this medicine is."

Hearing Wang Dali's explanation, as a woman who grew up in the United States, Pepper immediately understood what kind of medicine it was and the other party's sinister intentions.

If she really ate this cake, and then did that kind of thing with Wang Dali in the office, and someone "casually" bumped into her after a while, it is almost foreseeable that her power in Stark Corporation will be overwhelmed by those The news came, and the directors who had been prepared devoured it.

Even, when Stark comes back, she will be fired.

"Are you okay? Do you want me to give you half a day off?"

Looking warily at Wang Dali who ate a small cake, Pepper quietly retreated to the back of the office, gently opened the drawer, and held a bottle of anti-wolf sprayer.

"It's all right. This dose hasn't affected me yet."

Wang Dali, who saw the other party's vigilance, shook his head, explaining while not forgetting to make a joke.

"Of course, if you must give me a vacation, I won't refuse."

Today is Wang Dali's seventh day as Pepper's bodyguard. After a week of running-in, the two are no longer as unfamiliar as when they first met.

Of course, they can only be regarded as acquaintances now, and they are still far from friends.

……

The person who sent the small cakes was not stupid. Half of the cakes were faulty and the other half were fine.At lunch, Wang Dali shared the remaining cakes and biscuits with the busy Pepper (of course Pepper ate the ones that have no problem), and by the way helped her put these gifts aside neatly, so that it was convenient for Pepper after get off work Take them back together.

At this time, Jenny appeared at the door of her office again with two drinks.

Although the other party had already softened his footsteps, Wang Dali still noticed her coming and her beating heart that was a little too fast.

"Pepper, I'm here to deliver drinks to you and Mr. Wang."

As she said that, she also glanced at the cake box that the two of them had eaten up.

Finding out that it was Jenny, Pepper frowned calmly, and thanked her with a smile in the same voice as usual.

"Thank you, Jenny."

"Thank you, Miss Jenny."

Compared with Pepper's outstanding acting skills, Wang Dali was expressionless.But as a bodyguard, his behavior is quite normal.

"How about it, are the biscuits I made delicious?"

"It was delicious."

Many women are born actors, and Pepper, who had doubts, and Jenny, who had other tasks, actually started chatting like this.After more than ten minutes, Jenny, who found that Pepper and Wang Dali were still looking as usual, had a puzzled look on her brows, and quickly left with the excuse of work.

After the other party left, Wang Dali shrugged his shoulders: "It seems that this Miss Jenny doesn't really want to be friends with you."

"I'm used to it."

Lifting a strand of brown hair beside her ear, Pepper said with some sarcasm.

"As a playboy, assistant to billionaire Tony Stark, my position is coveted by countless people, and these things are always inevitable."

"Sounds horrible."

Wang Dali said that he can't do these intrigues.If he was put in Pepper's position, he might be fired within two days.

As for whether it was due to the failure of the operation or the beating of the company colleagues, I don't know.

After that, another week passed. Every day, Wang Dali watched as Pepper was so busy with Stark's affairs, and sometimes worried about Stark, who didn't know whether he was going to die or not. His whole body was visibly thinner.

After knowing this, Catherine also asked Wang Dali to help her niece more, although the other party's original words were true.

"If that playboy can't come back, then Pepper has worked so hard during this time, why should he take away hundreds of thousands from Stark?"

……

"Don't worry, Pepper. Mr. Stark will be all right."

"Thank you."

Today, it has been almost three weeks since Tony disappeared, and it is still unknown what kind of abuse he will receive if he falls into the hands of terrorists.For Wang Dali's comfort, Pepper could only show a forced smile.

Wang Dali, who still remembers a little bit of the plot, knows that although Tony Stark came back and became Iron Man soon, whether it was when he was kidnapped by terrorists or after he became Iron Man, there were indeed several times when he almost died. Bye.
