Not Crazy yet [Comprehensive British and American]

Tony Stark had a careless smile on his face, and he opened his arms to embrace the shareholders who came here one by one.Mr. Stark wore a proper suit today as Miss Potts requested.According to his own opinion, he would actually prefer to appear on the stage in Mark III...

Um.Luckily Pepper stopped him.

Tony saw many unfamiliar faces in the crowd.Several of them have outstanding temperament, and he guessed that they might be high-ranking military officers he had never been in contact with.Roddy has been calling him desperately recently, as if he just accidentally learned the nuclear code.But if Luo Di's advice is still earnest...then the attitude of some 'big men' can be said to be turning their faces and denying others.

The smile on Tony's face didn't change.As soon as he entered the arena, it caused quite a stir, or rather, a huge commotion.Fortunately, the list of reporters this time has been screened layer by layer, otherwise Mr. Stark might have been picked up and taken away by some newspapers who are desperate for news...

entertainment.entertainment.After all, this is his company.After all... this is the old man's life's work.

Tony smiled and greeted the few he could remember the names of, and then went to deal with the big guys who were obviously not nice.After almost two hours of walking around the crowd like this... he was tired.He is bored.

Well enough to save face.Don't think he doesn't know that no one can really do anything to him—

Mr. Stark blinked his large eyes.It doesn't matter.

At two o'clock in the morning he'd make an Iron Man appearance...and then he'd fly straight back to Malibu.No one can stop him.This is so boring.

Tony finished dealing with another lady, this beauty is blond and blue-eyed, 36d.She won more possibilities - the possibility of 'cooperating' with him privately and in-depth.Who doesn't love a smart and beautiful woman?Right?Tony let out a long breath, he was a little drunk...he planned to hide in the bathroom.He turned around, and then looked at the person in front of him, he was stunned.

"Bruce! God, what wind blows you out of Gotham?" Iron Man put Stark's commercial smile back on his face again.Of course, he was bored—but Wayne deserved the smile.This guy is not bad. "I thought that as long as your place is not blown up by missiles, you will never move away—or do you also chase stars?"

Bruce smiled gently and shook Tony's hand.The cooperation between the two of them is not too small. Compared with Luthor and Osborn, it is easier to make a profit from Stark—or in other words, from Stan.As the deputy director of Stark Industries, playing games with them... Stan's IQ is actually not an important task.It was ridiculously naive for the man to want to take Stark's place.

"Shall I sign your autograph?" Tony shrugged, he was indeed a big star these days.He tried to withdraw his hand, but found himself being held back by Wayne.

Iron Man froze for a moment.He looked up, still smiling at Bruce.The chairman of the Wayne Group, who was sticking to Gotham, looked calm and determined, but at some point he put away his smile.Tony was startled again by the other party's serious expression.Fortunately, before he thought about it completely, Bruce spoke:

"You made a crazy choice, Tony. From the time you chose to close your arms manufacturing department, you've embarked on this crazy path... I really admire you, my friend. In this situation, you still Have the courage."

Tony's eyes widened.

……Wow.It was unexpected.Is not it?

Bruce Wayne's voice was low.It was as if they were afraid that someone would overhear their conversation.His tone was sincere, and his blue eyes shone slightly.Looks like he came to him after a struggle too... It's not like Tony doesn't get compliments, but seriously.Since his first news conference out of Afghanistan, he has not been that God, the darling of the media.Basically all the voices are questioning and questioning-has Tony Stark been frightened crazy?

Tony slaps the group in the face with Iron Man.

Then this group of people began to covet Iron Man.

Bruce was still talking.He was still holding Tony's hand.This move is actually a bit gay.But really, Tony didn't care about that at all right now - he had a Wayne in front of him.But Bruce Wayne!The Wayne who got up and spent money to kill a governor... He suspected that he should be the first person among his peers to be 'admired' by Bruce.

So he wants to hear it.So he wants to listen to it definitely not because he needs to be recognized.

"You know this is an increasingly crazy world." Bruce's eyes showed emotion.His voice was soft and firm.If it weren't for Stark to know the sexual orientation of the person in front of him, he would have misunderstood that Wayne really had a crush on him. "You're the first self-proclaimed superhero—don't contradict me. Tony! You can't deny it. The media doesn't know what you've done, can I? You're doing something meaningful. You is stopping things that aren't right..."

Tony subconsciously pursed his lips.And Bruce had already let go of his hand, the melancholy Gotham man frowned slightly and lowered his head.It was as if he couldn't even look at him directly - as if at this moment, he was already a saint in this man's eyes.

Tony moved his throat, trying to say something.But he still stopped himself from actually speaking——

What do you say?Say I just found out that I've actually been poisoned with palladium and I'm likely to die?Don't be funny, he won't be a superhero.If he is, then he will also be the one with the shortest lifespan among superheroes!He wasn't the alien in Metropolis—and only an alien would sacrifice himself like that.he?He thinks he can't...

He didn't want to talk, he didn't want to show weakness.He should continue to accept Wayne's 'compliments' with a smirk, he shouldn't believe that these businessmen have 'true feelings'... But Tony stared at Bruce's face as if he was remembering something, and he still spoke by a strange coincidence.

"You blow me too high, Bruce." Mr. Stark could feel his throat dry.It made him look a little serious.Damn, is he really drunk? "I'm just making it up, I'm just making it up...I never knew what it was like to be bombed in flesh and blood, and when the sacrifice happened in front of me.... I just found myself unable to ignore it."

As soon as Tony finished speaking, he regretted it.honestly?On this occasion?at this time?Him with a man?Heart to heart?

But the next instant he remembered that Bruce Wayne had seen his parents shot to death as a child.

He suddenly understood why the Wayne Group didn't engage in arms.

Bruce Wayne finally looked up.Instead of frowning, he gave Tony a gentle, even receptive smile.His sincere voice sounded again:

"One of the things I discovered early on is that people are always very uncertain about doing the right thing. It's not a pity or funny to fail because of the wrong thing. But doing the right thing... right Yes, but loss of profit. The 'consequences' that people have to face are too many and too heavy."

The two directors stood facing each other.It took Tony a while to realize that... he might have really listened to Wayne's words.He was really listening to the other party's... comfort.

"You don't have to defend yourself, Tony. You don't have to make a big deal either - you're in one of the toughest times right now. You're not sure of yourself - it's not like Tony Stark."

Bruce laughed.And Tony also laughed stiffly twice.

……Yes.It's really not like him.

The Gotham man's smile is so soft.He looked at Tony sincerely.The voice becomes soft again:

"I just wish to come and tell you that as long as you are on the right path, then I will be your trustworthy friend. I admire your choice, Mr. Tony Stark. No matter what other people say about you—you Great decisions were made."

Wayne patted Stark on the shoulder.Tony nodded stiffly...he was a little touched.real.He wasn't untouched.real.

For a moment he really wanted to tell his long-time partner in the company, this friend he had only really known for 20 minutes...he really wanted to tell Bruce Wayne.

He was dying.

But he held back.He still resisted the desire to pour out.He wasn't going to tell anyone—he wasn't going to let anyone waste time on him.If he can't save himself—who can save him?So Tony Stark just put on his business smile again.It's just that this time there is a little more sincerity in the eyes.

"Then I remember, Bruce. It sounds like you really want to help me-how about an extra two percentage points from the equipment partner?" Tony smiled and patted Bruce's arm.There was a bit of sadness in his smile that was actually well hidden.Bruce Wayne's blue eyes twinkled again, but he just smiled and gave Stark a hug, too.

Tony stiffened slightly.Bruce let go of him calmly.The handsome young man Chen Ken nodded:

"As long as you really need it. Tony. Of course it's not a problem."

In fact, he doesn't really need it.Tony thought a little confused.But it's important.It was really important to him to know that Wayne wasn't saying these things for profit...he's a nice guy, isn't he?

...It turns out that there are still people in the world who understand Iron Man.

——This is very important.
