Playboys like food, wine, and beauty, and enjoy the bliss of life, so they are called playboys.Former playboy Tony Stark has worked hard to shed the public image of him over the years, but he still gets teased at times, including Pepper.

The three of them were eating in the restaurant. The guests around were very curious and looked at them frequently. People with rich imaginations were already guessing whether the girl was Tony Stark's illegitimate daughter.

Alicia was curious, "Do I look like Mr. Stark?"

Pepper was puzzled, "What?"

"The man—" Alicia pointed to her, "said I might be Stark's bastard daughter."

Pepper's face was "what's the trouble", "what!"

Tony put down the menu, "I'll go talk to him."

"What do you want to eat? Lobster? Lamb chops?" Pepper changed the subject calmly.

"Little lamb chops."

"OK."

Tony came back soon, "Have you finished ordering?"

"Done." Pepper glanced at him.They didn't ask "how was the talk", no need to ask, it must have been very effective.

Tony sat down and asked nonchalantly, "Can you hear what they're all saying, and won't you confuse them?"

Alicia looked at him with wide innocent eyes and nodded.

"How far away can I hear it?" This is not in her file.

"You can go as far as you want, and you can hear whoever you want to hear."

"Wow - oh!" He is such a smart person, he doesn't need her to explain in detail to know that of course she can control her abilities at any time, otherwise hearing other people's words all day long will be annoying to death.But right away it's awkward: She can hear him and Pepper doing things in the penthouse, too.

She also understood immediately, "Don't worry, I haven't heard of you."

After a while, Pepper also realized, "Oh!" She blushed a little.

Change the subject Change the subject.

So it was said that she had already obtained her identity documents, American birth certificate, social welfare number, student status file, etc. Now she is a person with identity, not a black household.Although Alicia has not used ID documents in the United States and Canada for 20 years, she still sincerely thanks him for his thoughtfulness.

"But I don't want to go to school."

"But you are such an old child," Hey, how do you say it sounds weird? "It doesn't seem right not to go to school. Have you ever been to middle school? High school?" According to her current biological age, she should go to middle school, but it is not uncommon for talented teenagers to skip grades, so it is not a problem to arrange to go to high school.

"No. I don't need to go to middle school. I have been in the most advanced research institutions in various countries for 50 years, and I have systematically studied biological science, human science, molecular biology, molecular anthropology, genetics, immunology, Biochemistry, philosophy, classics, history and archaeology, astrophysics, nuclear physics, theology of several different religions, trauma surgery, and occult biology which is not in the university curriculum, various studies of human origins, All kinds of mythology research, basically I have learned almost all the subjects they used when they were studying me. And the people who taught me knowledge can be said to be the best scientists in that country.”

"So I don't feel like I need to waste time in middle school," she concluded.

Pepper was flabbergasted: she hadn't met anyone smarter than Tony.

Alicia smiled, "It's not that I'm smart, but that I have too much time. You know, it's very boring in those research institutions. I don't have to think about how to make money to support myself all day long, and I don't have to sleep. I have a lot of time to spend. use."

Tony was a little helpless, "Oh! I want you to experience the daily life of a normal child. No matter how old you are, you have been in those research institutions, facing some crazy people, psychopaths, paranoid Crazy, that's not the life of a normal person. You should experience the life of a normal kid. What do you think?"

She thought about it, nodded, "It makes sense."

"And you have enough time to think about where you want to live, New York, Los Angeles, it doesn't matter."

"New York, will New York be better? I think some people might prefer that I be under surveillance at all times."

"Are you talking about me?" Tony asked in surprise.

"Not you. I mean S.H.I.E.L.D."

Pepper was a little confused: "SHIELD? What's going on?"

"Nick Fury would have preferred to be able to monitor her close by."

Pepper was shocked: "What will they do to her? Will they take her away again?" Instantly, the anger level rose, "I hate those arrogant government officials. They always want everything. They want you to sacrifice and dedicate. But don't think about it, why!"

Tony smiled, "Dedicate yourself to the country."

"That's the hell! You can't risk your life if you serve the country, right?!" She was still thinking about the nuclear bomb and others. "You're going to be poisoned to death. That bastard Nick Fury gave you the new element. He just wants you to have to ask him, right? Right!"

Tony shook his head quickly, "That's not it." Well, Pepper doesn't know all the details.

"Are you poisoned?" Alicia asked curiously.

Pepper pointed, "It's the ring on his chest."

"Isn't that a small controllable fusion reactor? The device that powers the suit."

"It's really a power source." Tony didn't really want to say more.

But Alicia asked again: "Poisoned?"

"It's the palladium core that powers that device that causes Tony's blood poisoning."

"I think he is fine, there is no sign of poisoning."

"It's gone now, because I found a better and more stable element than palladium. Don't worry," pressing Pepper's hand, and smiling at Alicia, "don't worry."

The waiter starts serving the food.

"I've read your information. You still have shrapnel remaining in your body. Can't it be removed by surgery?"

"Did Asimov authorize you to read this part of the material?"

"Yeah. I thought he was trying to see if I could fix the problem."

Pepper was full of hope: "Do you have a solution? We have found the best heart surgeon in the country. It will be very dangerous to remove the remaining shrapnel."

"Don't talk about it. She's still a kiddo, so she shouldn't be bothered by these shitty things. We're out for dinner, so we should have a good meal, okay?"

After returning to Stark Tower, Pepper found a reason to send Tony to the laboratory below.

"Can you help him?" Pepper was hesitant and full of hope, "He's in a very bad condition, with those shrapnel in his body, the nuclear reactor just prevents the shrapnel from getting into his heart, but this state can't last forever Keep going, what if—I mean, what if the new elements don't work in the end?"

She walked around anxiously, "I'm terribly scared! Tony can't die, at least not now or in the near future, he still has a lot of things to do—"

"I don't know if I can help him. My method doesn't consider the first pain. I'm worried that he won't be able to bear it."

Pepper suddenly ignited hope, "I can find the best heart surgeon for consultation, or you can find any doctor you want, I will find it."

"You may just need to find an anesthetist who is brave enough. If my method fails and fails, I can still give him a heart." Alicia said seriously.

"Are you joking?"

"I've had my heart dug out twice, and I did it voluntarily. It's okay. If it can make Mr. Stark a healthy person again, I don't think I will mind." Asking others to do things for yourself, give some Sweetness, that's normal.According to Tony Stark's behavior, he would not say that he would leave her alone after solving his own problems. From the perspective of mutual benefit, it is normal to ask for remuneration, so that he can owe nothing in the future.

"Hey! Wait!" Pepper pressed his forehead, "I don't want your heart, I just want you to have other treatments that the surgeon will not use or think of."

"Heart replacement surgery is just a backup plan. You don't have to worry. If you are really afraid, you can check how long the person in Siberia lived after changing my heart. According to the attitude of the Russians, they will definitely keep records .”

"I'll go to the doctor." Pepper immediately decided to act.

In the evening, Tony Stark came to Alicia's small apartment.

"This is your identity document." Handed her a folder, "I found a master, and they did a good job. I also inserted your information into the files of the Census Bureau and the Social Welfare Department."

"Thank you." She was polite, took the folder and put it aside.

"Did Pepper tell you?"

"Say it. Waiting for you - when we get to Los Angeles, I will go to the hospital to check you first, and then consult. I don't feel pain, so I can't understand the pain you have to endure every day, but I think you are still free from shrapnel. Better."

Tony forced a smile, "I know. Thank you for your willingness to treat me—treatment, is it treatment?"

"It counts as therapy."

"You don't have any of that in your file."

"That's because I didn't tell other people, and they didn't seem to care that there was anything unusual about me other than not dying."

"But why are you telling me now—me and Pepper?"

She shrugged, "I'm happy."

Tony was taken aback, and could only smile, "Thank you, no matter if it succeeds or not, thank you very much."

He looked at her again, with a disgusted face, "You are still too thin. Can't you eat enough? At least I can make you full. You can eat whatever you want, and you can order takeaway. I don't think it's okay to order takeaway now." It's going to be a hassle, restaurants are almost open."

The author has something to say: *The Ark Reactor is a small controllable nuclear fusion reactor. There is no controllable nuclear fusion reactor in reality, and it is still in theoretical experiments.

*Some students in the comment area suggested that the annotation was wrongly written, please modify it.

*Hydrogen bombs are uncontrollable nuclear fusion, and all existing nuclear power plants are nuclear fission reactors.

*Tony Stark mastered controllable nuclear fusion technology, so Stark Industries broke away from the arms industry and became a global clean energy giant.
