It's a pity that none of the things Tony was looking forward to so much didn't happen.

Carl and Lex didn't engage in any violent verbal sparring - in every sense of the word - nor did they make any outrageous physical contact - physical contact in any sense.

There's always been a delicate balance between the two.

They hovered over each other's limbs like snakes, as if they were on the verge of eruption anytime and anywhere, but each was controlled by reason, forcibly suppressing all fierce collisions and incompatible emotions.

They're so entwined that you can't tell whether they see each other as hunted objects or as close lovers.

Carl didn't answer, his thin kiss landed behind Lex's sensitive ear, and it looked like he was fully prepared to toss Lex's words aside.

He acted recklessly in front of Lex, and Lex had to admit that this was the result of his intentional guidance.

When he smiled and generously threw the first huge check in front of Karl, when he agreed with Karl's every word in a soft voice, when he did not hesitate to support Karl's plans that were not favored by anyone... His All actions are showing his fascination and dependence on Karl, and also cultivating Karl's obsession and dependence on him.

Now is the time for him to reap the consequences.

"...enough." Lex raised a hand to push Cal's head buried in his neck, "I said enough."

He could guess how the fragile and thin skin behind his ears would turn an ambiguous bruise after undergoing gentle nibbling. After Karl's wet lips left, the coolness of that place and his whole body because of Karl's The escaping warm breath and the bristling hairs all told him how much he missed this moment.

In the back of his mind, he admitted to himself, he liked this.

He likes the way Carl is about to get angry and bears it for him, and he likes how Carl holds him firmly in the corner.He enjoys all the glances that are thrown at him and Carl when they behave intimately, whether it's compliments or insults, he will take it all.

But that doesn't mean Karl's behavior against his will is worth advocating.

Love is essentially a game between two people. Lex can agree to all of Carl's demands, including those that are reasonable and unreasonable, but he needs to make sure that Carl understands what he has paid and that all of Carl's behaviors are within the scope of his permission. In other words, if he frowned, Karl must calm down immediately and obey his orders obediently.

Just like Carl has done in the past.

He used to do it so beautifully.

Even though he has followed him for many years and is familiar with his character and various small habits, Moxie will inevitably have negligence and mishandling, but Carl has never made a mistake in judging his emotions.

However, Lex's expression appeared extremely cold, which was his usual expression in front of his closer subordinates.

Entrepreneurs need to manage their perfect image to the outside world. Lex has always been kind to the cleaners and low-level employees in the company. He can keep in mind the family conditions of those people. When necessary, give kind inquiries and encouragement, and some small financial rewards are more conducive to gaining gratitude and winning hearts.

However, in front of those who have a handle in his hands and whose self-interest is firmly tied to Lex's, he will appear colder and more real, but this kind of coldness and truth also has a limit, and most people can't understand it. What's the difference between his one expression and the last one.

It turns out that Karl not only "used to" understand his emotions, Karl can do it now.

"Don't be mad," Carl whispered.

He let go of his hand, got up from Lex and stood up straight, the infinitely reduced height difference between them because Carl leaned over became very clear, Lex had to raise his head to look directly at Carl - he was still angry, he wouldn't looked up.

Then Carl cupped his face in his hands.

Those bright blue eyes just crashed into Lex's pupils.

Lex needs to raise his head when he sees Carl, why doesn't Carl need to lower his eyes when he sees Lex?At this moment, he just stared at Lex with lowered eyes, the breaths of the two blended together, and before Lex could make any more reactions, Carl leaned over and kissed the tip of Lex's nose.

"Let's make peace." He whispered, with the innocence of a child and the affection of a lover.

"3," he immediately started counting down after saying this, he kissed Lex on the left cheek, "2," he kissed Lex on the right cheek, "1." He lowered his head and kissed Lex Lips.

"We made up," Carl announced.

It was inappropriate, but Lex couldn't help but think of the kiss they had before, the atmosphere that made him intoxicated and hard to get out of.

——Extremely inconsistent with his usual performance, Carl's kisses are always possessive and aggressive.

Now it seems that Karl's various differences in front of him have already foreshadowed something, but his brain was completely dominated by hormones at that time, coupled with his over-conceited... He didn't take Karl to heart, even if he Already quite in love with him.

Being caught in the dilemma of whether to continue to entangle with the other party or inject the venom into the other party's body is never a good experience, even for Lex.Luthor also sometimes feels overwhelmed:

The balance in his heart maintains an unstable balance, so the emotions he shows to the outside are always very changeable.

"You're not a boy anymore, Honey," Lex said, "and neither am I."

Carl understood from Lex's tone that today's matter could be uncovered.

Not as he expected.

He deliberately smiled, imitating the child's milky tone and said: "I'm only twenty, I'm still a little boy, I can do whatever I want."

Bruce's eyebrows twitched.

"It's ridiculous, it seems that you think so too." Tony's deep voice sounded, obviously he was upset that he didn't get to see a good show, "I can't believe that Luther is doing this... okay Well, it's a trick that Carl can play, and obviously neither you nor I are in this style."

"I don't think so."

"What do you disagree with me about?"

"Sorry, I haven't had time to think about it, I just negate your statement reflexively."

"Are you trying to get along with me, Wayne?"

"It's not really, but we have to maintain this state of talking all the time to avoid embarrassment." Bruce said, "You don't think our situation is embarrassing, I know, it's your thinking that makes me feel awkward." The situation is more embarrassing."

Carl walked towards them with Lex in his arms, Tony immediately gave up the opportunity to reply to Bruce, and couldn't wait to express his opinion.

"Look, look, who's back? I didn't expect that there would be someone other than the captain to solve the relationship problem today."

"There are too many things you can't think of, Stark, if you have to make a fuss about everything, then you should stop doing experiments and scientific research." Lex didn't have a good face to anyone except Carl, "We There are issues to discuss, which, IMHO, are much better than if you had no issues, after all, for reasons we all know, your relationship history is pretty much blank."

The well-known reason is of course Tony's status as a playboy... To be honest, looking at Tony's life history in detail, he has never really been in a relationship.

If those "relationships" in which he walked over to strike up a conversation with a smile, and the next second the scene can switch to him hugging a beautiful woman and kissing passionately are not counted.

For Karl's sake, Tony didn't hit back hard, but in retaliation, he cast a mocking glance at Lex's ear.

Lex's hair had long grown countless times, but he kept his short hair on purpose. There was nothing covering his ears. The hickey left by Carl was so clear that anyone who saw it could imagine that it was a What a hot entanglement.

Everyone got used to his new haircut, Lex tried to convince himself that was why he kept it, and Carl got used to the way he looked now.

And all this is to keep in mind the fear and shame that Superman brought to him. He has no power to fight back in front of Superman, and can only be forced and threatened by Superman.

The shame kept him awake at night.

When he stood in front of the office window and watched a bright red streak across the sky, he knew that Superman was provoking his rule in his city again. When he heard the cheers and screams from the TV, He knew that shameless alien was subverting his authority.

Metropolis, this beautiful city, he took her from his father many years ago, and since then he has tried his best to adorn this dusty beauty.

He gave her order, tidiness, a style that attracts people's attention, and an elegant personality.

He gave her the luxury and power she needed, personally dressed her in rich robes and laurel crowns, and used people's laughter as a classic embellishment.

Metropolis, she became his lover earlier than Karl, and he devoted his life to her with all the enthusiasm that a young man can have.

superman.

Wearing the blue tight uniform, red cape and huge emblem on the chest that are widely praised.

Stinking idiots, aliens who do nothing but disrupt order by falling from the sky.

He just did some exaggerated actions to cater to people's absurd delusions, and he made the whole world fall so easily.

Let Metropolis fall.

Metropolis, he thought, my city.

She betrayed him, dismissing all his years of hard work, as if all he had done to shape this city was nothing more than something that anyone else could have done.

Superman can make her cheer when he flies through the sky, and he can make her fall when he saves a few fools.

Nobody remembers Lex.Luther, no one remembers his hard work and dedication, no one sees how much value he has created for this city, how many people he has helped find jobs, and what a wonderful new life he has given them... Enough, enough.

Self-pity is ridiculous.

Superman has to pay for it.Lex was sure of this.
