When you have two sets of superheroes

After Shirley returned to the Avengers, she could feel that Natasha and Hawkeye's attitude towards her had changed slightly, becoming closer and kinder-and these two, as full-time S.H.I.E.L.D. agents and part-time Avengers members, Their attitude is also partly representative of Fury's attitude.

Is it because she helped the Justice League save the world, so I think she might be a good person too?

Shirley scoffed at this, she still did not agree to join the Avengers.

What bothered her was that Batman was still angry.After returning from Wayne Manor that day, she carefully edited a 400-word apology essay and sent it to Bruce, but as expected, she didn't get a reply.Then she analyzed the matter from beginning to end with great sincerity, and sent another 800-word article, but there was still no reply.

Shirley was completely at a loss.

That weekend, Clark invited her to his home in Kansas.

Martha was happy that he brought Shirley back, and the three of them sat and chatted for a while, and then she pushed Clark to let him take Shirley out for a walk.

Clark looked at his mother helplessly, Shirley was standing outside the door waiting for him, Martha looked at her carefully, and after confirming that she would not look back, she secretly made a cheering gesture to Clark.

Superman: "..."

Outside Clark's house, there is a large field, which glows golden in the sun, as if even the air carries the fragrance of plants.The two walked side by side, and Shirley asked him, "Has Bruce been doing anything lately?"

"no, what happened?"

Shirley sighed: "He's still mad at me."

But she didn't know why Batman was so angry.

"He's worried about you," Clark said.

Shirley was puzzled, and a little aggrieved: "But I know it in my heart, and I'm not an ordinary person. Besides, where is Batman going? If there is trouble in Gotham one day, he will definitely do the same thing as me. s Choice."

Superman snorted, it's true, sometimes Bruce doesn't care too much about his own safety.

He thought for a while, and said, "That can only be said... You were unlucky enough to make this choice first, otherwise your situation will be different."

Shelly: "..."

"It's so annoying, I have no experience in coaxing people."

Superman laughed, "I see."

But with a smile, thinking of other things, the arc of the corner of his mouth slowly flattened out again.He turned his head slightly to look at Xue Li who was walking sullenly with her head bowed, and said softly, "Do you care so much about whether he is angry or not?"

Shirley looked up at him and said, "Don't you think it's scary when he's angry?"

She half-truthfully said that this was of course one of the reasons, as for the others... To be honest, Shirley couldn't quite figure it out either.She admits that Batman has some weight in her heart, but she hasn't fully figured out the amount of weight, and the difference between Batman, Clark, and Diana, so she doesn't plan to say anything more.

Clark said, "But I remember you fighting him in Gotham? I thought you weren't afraid of him."

"That's not the same thing," Shirley muttered, she would rather Batman come and fight her now, "There's nothing to be afraid of fighting, I don't like him being angry now without saying anything, It made me want to persuade, but I didn’t know how to persuade.”

"Have you ever apologized to him?"

"I said it," Shirley opened her eyes, snorted and told him, "I said it twice! In fact, it's okay to say it a few more times, but I don't think I can get to the point, and it doesn't matter how many times I say it .”

"Then what are your plans next? Are you going back to Gotham? Bruce should calm down a little when he sees you." Superman looked at her gently.

"Hmm..." Shirley thought for a while, and said, "Gotham is going, but I have to go back to China for about three or four days. Xiaoba was left by me at—er, the pet store, This time when I go back, I have to consign it over, and I also need to deal with that house, which was listed for sale on the Internet before, and someone wants to buy it."

In fact, Xiao Ba was placed in sleep mode at home. When the Dimensional Wall was just broken, she was so excited that she left in a hurry. She boarded the plane alone without bringing anything except her mobile phone. This time, she had to pack her luggage when she went back.

"Go back to China?" Clark was thoughtful, and smiled at Shirley when she looked at him curiously, "Okay, then tell me the time after you buy the ticket, and I'll take you to the airport."

"..." Shirley's mouth twitched, "Clark, why do you..."

"what?"

"……nothing."

Shirley rubbed her forehead, it must be her illusion, why did she feel that Clark's eyes suddenly became a little... cunning at a certain moment?

It was getting late, and the two walked back home.Shirley declined Martha's suggestion to stay for dinner, and teleported back to the Avengers Building.

Martha looked at her son who came into the kitchen to help with the cutlery, "Carl, why don't you know how to speak?"

"Mom," Clark said dumbfounded, "don't be like this, she has someone she likes."

Martha snorted and said regretfully, "Have a boyfriend? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Clark shook his head and whispered, "It's not a boyfriend yet, but... it will be in the future."

Martha patted his arm with complicated emotions, sighed and said, "Carl, you can see other people's affairs so clearly, but you have nothing to do with yourself."

Superman gave a dry cough and touched his nose in embarrassment, "Mom, there's no rush, I'm fine now."

Colleagues, partners, friends, family.The life that is almost tasteless is what he longed for the most all the time.

As for Shirley, to be honest, Clark doesn't really have much ambition. He is very clear that Shirley doesn't have ambiguous feelings for him in that regard.It's not that Clark didn't think about fighting for it, it's just that he has always seen the special way Bruce and Shirley treat each other.Leaving aside what happened after his resurrection, even when Shirley didn't remember Bruce, there was a strange atmosphere between them that was difficult for outsiders to get in.

This atmosphere is not the kind of love feeling that makes people blush and heartbeat. Even when these two people meet, they are not as good as strangers.But this is like the gossip map of Huaguo. Even if they have not been put together for the time being, what they can't deceive themselves is that they are the most suitable partner for each other.

Clark was happy to have Shelly as a friend, she was always helping him, caring for him, defending him—even in front of Batman, Superman thought, he probably would never forget that day at the amusement park in his life, He's so weak from kryptonite, the way Shirley blocks him from behind, stalking Batman.

That will be the best memory of his life.

***

The Justice League has a dinner every two weeks.

This was proposed by Clark after Bruce bought a manor as a base. The Avengers even live together. Their Justice League is usually scattered in all corners of the world. They can't get together to discuss big things. How can it be like that? It's a team, and it's almost like a contract worker.

There was a long table in the hall, and Neptune sat upright on the seat, looked up at the giant crystal chandelier and said, "I really don't like this old and gloomy place."

Diana: "This is bought by Bruce, you can also buy another place you like for the alliance."

Neptune:"……"

He glanced at Barry, Steel Bones and Clark who were also in the poor group like him, and sighed, "We are really poor."

Diana laughed: "Just you, don't bring me and Bruce."

Neptune couldn't sit still: "...No, why are you pissing me off so much today?"

Could it be because he accidentally teased her and Shirley that day?

Neptune kept his mouth shut, he felt it must be because of the latter, the two women were not right, and felt sorry for Wayne.

"Nightingale is in the newspaper again." Steel Bone spread the newspaper to face them, "Look, [Manhattan's new superhero was originally Gotham Vigilante], why do I feel that this title seems familiar."

Clark laughed: "Change Manhattan into Metropolis. This headline has also appeared in newspapers."

"So Shirley is joining the Avengers?" Cyborg asked Bruce.

Bruce raised his eyelids to look at him indifferently, and then lowered them. He flicked the screen of his mobile phone and didn't know what he was looking for or waiting for. He said nothing with a cold face.

So Cyborg turned to Superman and asked, "Clark, you get closer to her, you know that?"

"As far as I know, no." Clark said, "But it's true that she returned to China."

Bruce looked up quickly, so quickly that Barry, who was closest to him, worried about his neck.

"Go home?"

"Yeah." Clark said to Cyborg, with a natural look, pretending not to notice Bruce's strangeness, "I sent her to the airport yesterday, and it should be here by now."

Diana raised her eyebrows, a little surprised, but after seeing Clark's expression, she faintly understood. She coughed lightly, showing a bit of surprise and displeasure, and asked, "What is she doing back home, and when will she be back?"

Clark shrugged, "I don't know, maybe it's because I feel boring here."

Bruce stood up and went outside. Clark listened carefully and found that he was asking Aver to book a plane ticket.He picked up the cup and took a sip of water to cover the unnaturally upturned corner of his mouth. Then he saw Diana looking at her with her arms folded. The two looked at each other knowingly, and then quickly staggered away.

It was 06:30 in the morning when Bruce arrived in China. He asked Captain America for Shirley's address in advance. After leaving the airport, he took a taxi there. It was already past eight o'clock when he arrived downstairs.

He took the elevator upstairs, and when he rounded the corner, he saw Shirley escorting a man out. He was young but well-dressed, with slender feet and thin wrists. He was handsome and had a standard build but no muscles. There are creases, the coat is draped over the arm, and the sleeves of the shirt are also rolled up habitually. It is a middle-level and high-level management position sitting in an office.

Bruce looked at them with serious eyes. Shirley was startled when she found him, and the man also turned his head to look at him. He probably didn't recognize him, so he turned back and said, "Then I'll come over tomorrow, and I'll check the specific time later." Tell you."

Shirley nodded: "Okay, it's okay, I'm free any time these days."

The man smiled and said politely: "Then I'll go first, it's okay, you don't need to send it off, you can go in quickly, goodbye."

Shirley was dragged into the room by the arm of Bruce who then stepped forward in a daze, and closed the door behind his back.

"Wang!"

Xiao Ba was very happy to see an acquaintance, he wagged his tail and let out a cry.

"...Bruce?"

Bruce's face was expressionless, and there seemed to be something suppressed in his steel-blue eyes, which were as gloomy as a rainstorm.

He squeezed out a few words between his teeth: "You have to go again."

Shirley was stunned: "...huh?"

"If I don't reply to your text message, you will leave?"

Shirley was even more confused: "...what?"

No, why what this person said was as inexplicable as when he suddenly came to China? ? ?

"You should tell me in advance what you are going to do, even if there will be bad consequences, let me know and be prepared, instead of being in a coma after you come back, and letting everyone stay outside the ward worrying helplessly for three days."

Shelly: "..."

She belatedly realized that she was talking about the Steppenwolf, Shirley pursed her lips, and said cautiously, "Uh... sorry?"

Bruce's face darkened.

Shirley quickly corrected her tone, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I will never do it in the future, and I will tell you everything in advance!"

She admitted her mistake with a good attitude, Bruce looked pale, and then Shirley said: "I have always been alone, I have no experience... I will definitely report to you in advance for future actions. Then you have to tell me why you are angry in the future... ... Otherwise, I don't know how to coax you."

Bruce: "..."

"Have you coaxed me?"

Are the two small essays handing in a graduation thesis or coaxing people? ? ?

Shirley was confident: "Isn't sending an apology text count? Do you want me to wholesale a bouquet of flowers every day like you?"

Bruce gritted his teeth: "...that's not wholesale!"

And... Although the flowers are indeed useless, if he really receives them, he will still be a little bit happier.

Shirley laughed out loud, then quickly restrained herself, and sighed exhaustedly: "I really know I was wrong, don't be angry, Bruce..."

This distressed and sad tone seemed as if she really cared about him.

There was a dark tide in Bruce's eyes. Suddenly, he stretched his long legs, pressed Shirley's shoulders, pushed her to the wall, and leaned down to kiss her face.

Xiaoba, who was almost stepped on by the retreating Shirley on her tail, jumped away with a cry, looked up at the master who was hugged by the man and almost covered her entire figure, and was rarely confused, wondering if she wanted to save her After all, the man is a bit fierce, but the master doesn't seem to resist.

It decided to ask the holy will: "Wang?"

The owner made a strange whining sound, and then there was a tsk-tsk sound like when it drank water, but it was much quieter. If it wasn't for Xiaoba's keen hearing, he might still be aware of it.

It immediately became vigilant. Could this be some new type of mutated zombie?Master, is this going to be eaten? ? ?

The big golden retriever exploded and roared: "Wow!"

One second before it charged up and bared its teeth to bite, the owner finally pushed the big pig's hoof away, but turned around and scolded it: "Little Ba!"

Batman: "..."

What is it like to call a dog by its name the first time after a kiss?

Xiaoba: "..."

You actually killed me for him!

A bat and a dog looked at each other, murderous.

"Don't sneak up on me casually." Shirley said to Bruce, "Little Ba is more protective."

When you enter the door, you can see that you are an acquaintance and call you, and you can bite off your flesh even if you turn your head.

Batman: "...you call that a sneak attack?"

Shirley licked her lower lip, feeling a little numb, but more of a shuddering numbness, as if even the sensory nerves of the brain trembled and curled up.

She looked at Bruce with a dark face, and said softly, "Well, the first time it counts as a sneak attack, and it won't count in the future."

"Come on, Xiao Ba." She called out again, "Look at it obediently."

Shirley held Bruce's face, tiptoed and kissed him again.

Xiaoba: "..."

Xiaoba: "???"

No, why are you telling me to watch this? ? ?

The author has something to say: Shirley: True Straight Man Stamped and Certified

Neptune: Another day of enmity with the author :)

Xiaoba: The forgotten me was finally released qaq...
