Professor X's plan was decided to implement.

In order to ensure success, Bruce Wayne chose to stay by Li Wente's side all the time - even at that moment, her ability will be increased to 100%.

When the glass house was opened, Magneto controlled the reagent and stabbed it into her neck, at the moment when the monitoring meter was marked red and exploded! Professor X pressed his temple and tried his best to imbue the hint into it in an instant!

Iron Man watched the scene nervously through the last line of protection. He knew that if he failed—the situation he would face would be to personally execute Winterlee to avoid a worse ending.

—Probably this time, Lady Luck was on their side.

It was just that moment.

The space around Li Wente returned to calm from a momentary riot and distortion.She held Bruce Wayne's hand silently, trembling with tension.

——It wasn't until she heard Bruce Wayne's voice again that she opened her eyes tentatively.

Bruce Wayne is still here, intact.

——Except that his right sleeve was torn apart by a momentary spatial distortion.

-everything is fine.

Li Wente almost cried again, she never knew that she was such a crying person.

So she turned her back quickly, stopped her tears, and it took a long time to slow down the echo.

She heard Tony Stark's voice over the radio, full of smiles and fake regrets.

"I'm sorry Miss Winterlee, you have only been an Omega-level mutant for 78 hours. From now on, you can only be an ordinary mutant with some special abilities."

"—forever." Looking at the screen, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, pretending to sigh, "This is really a pity."

Li Wente saw Tony Stark standing outside from a distance, and the expression that was about to cry softened involuntarily. She finally laughed, with wet tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, but she smiled brightly. It made Iron Man feel his eyes astringent.

The little girl's expression of laughing and crying is not cute at all, and it looks weird, but Tony Stark still couldn't hold back: "It's ugly, Jarvis, save a picture."

Jarvis said to Tony: "Sir, are you talking about yourself?"

Tony Stark: "...I look so bored?"

Jarvis was serious: "But you never take pictures that you think are ugly." I don't know if it was Tony's illusion, he seemed to feel that there was a hint of ridicule in Jarvis's voice, which was always calm, "Just kidding you, I saved it."

The corner of Tony's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help asking, "Who taught you this?"

"Brothers Maximov, I think it's very interesting, what do you think, Sir?"

Iron Man didn't answer, he just glanced at Li Wente for the last time, opened the last door, took off the mask of the mecha, and said lazily, "Go back and rest, Jarvis, is the bath water ready at home?"

"Wait a minute, Sir." About three seconds later, Jarvis affirmed, "38.2°C, ready."

Iron Man put his mask back on and got ready to take off: "Then get ready to go home."

When he came out of the glass house, Li Wente still felt a little light under his feet.

She clutched Bruce Wayne's cuff, and looked at the opened glass door with some hesitation, so that she raised her head and looked at him with uncertain eyes: "...Can I really go out?"

When Bruce lowered his head, he could see her nervous and restless eyes. He paused and affirmed to her, "Yes, trust me."

Li Wente breathed a sigh of relief, she nodded, and said seriously: "Well, I have always trusted you."

Bruce Wayne was startled, Li Wente had loosened his cuffs, and stepped out cautiously.

The air and environment inside and outside the house are actually not much different, but Li Wente feels from the bottom of his heart that the two are completely different.Everything outside the house is peaceful and looks so good.

She took a deep breath and just looked at Professor X. Charles Xavier opened his hand to her. Give yourself a hug full of encouragement and hope.

"I'm sorry, child, for causing you so much pain." He patted Li Wente's back lightly, but with a smile in his eyes, "But it seems that it's not all bad things."

Li Wente didn't quite understand Professor X's last words, but she was more concerned about other issues at the moment.

Li Wente asked nervously: "Professor, my ability—"

"I can't assure you that everything will be safe, you know that the world is always full of accidents." Charles Xavier seemed to be able to easily give others the power to stabilize, he smiled, "but I can assure you, no matter what happens In case of any accident, I will come to your side at the first moment."

After a pause, he glanced at Bruce Wayne who was standing beside Li Wente, with a deep smile: "Of course, just like this time."

"I believe that your friends will always be by your side."

"You are never alone."

"—There is nothing to be afraid of."

So much has happened this week.

When Li Wente stood on the terrace on the top floor of the Avengers Alliance again, feeling the gentle breeze blowing across his cheeks, he almost thought that a year had passed for a long time.

Peter Parker stood beside her, quietly watching the sunset with her.

He looked like he wanted to say something, but finally gave up.

Li Wente was a little curious: "What's wrong?"

"That's right." Li Wente remembered belatedly, "I still remember, when you first went to Gotham to go to school, you told me that you had something to say to me when I came back."

"It's just that we all seem to have forgotten later, what did you want to tell me at that time?"

Peter Parker stood on the edge of the terrace. He looked at the distant Empire State Building from a distance. In his light brown eyes, it seemed that the girl who was pressing her hair and turning to him with a smile like a spring mountain still remained in her light brown eyes.

She is there now.

Still standing beside him, tilting his head slightly, waiting for his answer seriously and patiently.

Peter Parker on the Empire State Building blushed and said "Winter, I like you." He hid for a long time and was unable to say it.

However, at this moment, Peter Parker had the opportunity to speak again, but he felt that it seemed unnecessary.

Peter Parker blinked, he smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just want to say, I will miss you."

"Oh, it's this one?" Li Wente blinked. She didn't quite understand why she had to wait until she came back to say "I miss you", but it had been a long time ago, and he probably couldn't remember it if he asked Peter himself.

Peter Parker said, "Where is Mr. Wayne?"

"Downstairs." Li Wente looked a little embarrassed, "Well, Mr. Wayne said that if I have time, I'd better go see Mr. Barnes, he is very worried about me."

She sighed: "This time the incident was too big, because the initial news leaked from the Batcave, and even Mr. Pennyworth blamed himself."

Peter Parker said, "Do you need me to see you off?"

Li Wente said: "No need, I will go to Gotham with Mr. Wayne. By the way, is school going to start in two days? You should be thinking about which university to apply for? Have you thought about it?"

"New York University." Peter Parker smiled shyly, "The grades in the summer camp are good, I think I should be able to pass the exam."

Li Wente was a little surprised when she heard the words, and she said excitedly: "After that year, you will be my apprentice?"

Peter Parker was serious: "When the time comes, you can't find me troublesome."

Hearing that she had the opportunity to be Spider-Man's senior, Li Wente only felt an inexplicable pride in her chest, and she was very sure: "Of course, but I won't go to class for you when you skip class."

Peter Parker couldn't help retorting: "Is this something Pietro would do?"

"But he's not my junior?"

Li Wente is serious.

Wanda glanced at Pietro and couldn't help complaining, "It's useless."

Pietro made a face at his sister, shrugged his shoulders and said, "There is no way, she has to like it."

Wanda couldn't help but glanced at Li Wente who was chatting with Peter Parker on the terrace, frowned and said, "I don't like Bruce Wayne, and Parker is better than him."

"I think so too." Kuaiyin thought deeply, but after a pause, he added, "But he's really reliable, isn't he?"

Pietro put his hands in his trouser pockets, and smiled slightly: "Winter is by his side, so you really don't have to worry about anything."

On the terrace, Li Wente's smile was still as gentle and bright as when she first met everyone.

Like the warm sun in winter.

Bruce Wayne was waiting outside the Avengers Building. When Li Wente came in a hurry, his eyes paused for a moment before he remembered to open the car door for her.

Li Wente thanked him as usual, and got into the passenger car.

But when Bruce Wayne fastened his seat belt and was about to start the car, the little girl who was sitting in the passenger seat, as usual, suddenly turned her head, stared into his eyes, and spoke suddenly.

Her voice was tight, and her fingers were involuntarily clenched in front of her knees.But she still looked into Bruce Wayne's eyes, as if after enough deliberation, she decided to make this speech.

Li Wente said: "Mr. Wayne, I have thought about the answer to what you said to me before."

Bruce Wayne's hand trembled, and he almost missed the start button.

He pretended to be calm and let out a "huh", but he turned his eyes first and looked at his steering wheel before he could ask a steady question: "Then your answer is—?"

"Can I call you Mr. Bruce from now on?" Li Wente was so nervous that his palms were sweating, "I think Bruce sounds better than Wayne."

She responded with a scalp and continued: "... What do you think?"

Li Wente waited for a long time but did not get Batman's answer. Just when she thought that her answer was too subtle, so that the other party didn't understand, Bruce Wayne suddenly called her name.

Bruce Wayne said, "Winter."

Li Wente said "Oh?", just as he raised his eyelashes, his eyes widened due to sudden fright.

There is a very soft touch on her lips, gentle and warm - just like the heart that this person has been holding on to in the boundless night.

The corners of her mouth could not help but slightly raised, and her eyelashes were slightly closed.

Bruce Wayne raised his head slightly, ending the impulsive kiss.He looked at Li Wente, who had a calm face, but the embarrassment in his eyes was about to become concrete, and smiled slightly.

"Ah Fu should have been waiting for a long time, let's go home first."

Li Wente responded and found nothing wrong.

Bruce Wayne also finds it very strange. If time goes back to before the attack on New York, he probably never would have imagined that one day he would be able to easily say the word "home" to others.

To be able to say it more often than not: "Let's go home first."

Li Wente crossed his fingers and thought seriously: "I haven't had a chance to try the new secret recipe that Mr. A Fu taught me last time. I wonder if he would like to borrow my kitchen to try it."

Bruce Wayne said: "He has no reason to object."

"Oh, is that so?" Li Wente's voice melted into the air, "That would be great, I really like making some cookies with Mr. Afu."

"I'm done this time, can you taste some too?"

Some eye-catching Ferraris gallop down the road.

The passing Superman stopped in his tracks, glanced at him briefly, and when he saw the person in the passenger seat clearly, he could no longer arouse any surprise, but instead had a look of "That's it".

Holding the pizza in his hand, Superman accelerated towards the chaotic area.

Unlike Batman, who took a month-long love vacation - Lois is still waiting for his takeaway.

The daytime in New York is still full of traffic, and the night in Gotham is still moonlight and cold.

Nothing seems to have changed, but everything seems to have changed again.

Alfred stood in front of the door and said to Li Wente with a smile: "Welcome back, Miss Winter."

"Good evening, Mr. Alfred! Excuse me."
