My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

Chapter 26 The confrontation with Guai Liji

Wei Chen was unaware of what happened in the invisible man's residence.

Although he almost guessed the result.

When I got home, I opened the door and found that Harper was still awake.

She was wrapped in a blanket, sitting on the sofa, her eyes sparkling.

"Great, dear you are back, Leslie was still clamoring to see you just now!"

Harper was wearing a pink nightgown, holding a real estate brochure, and was carefully flipping through it. When he saw Wei Chen pushing the door in, he happily stepped forward and took his arm.

"Where is Leslie now?"

Wei Chen looked around the house, but found no sign of Leslie.

"She's asleep."

Harper blinked.

Wei Chen nodded, put his mouth close to Harper, and closed his eyes.

Thinking he was asking for a kiss, Harper leaned over and stamped him.

"Uh...Harper, while I'm happy with your move, allow me to prepare a bit earlier next time."

Wei Chen pretended to be surprised.

Harper couldn't bear the shame and indignation, "Obviously you... got together."

Wei Chen spread his hands, "I just want to know if you drank whiskey today, why..."

Before Wei Chen could finish speaking, Harper rushed forward with his fists raised.

 …

"What's this?"

After some frolic, Wei Chen found the coloring page in Harper's hand.

"Aren't you going to buy a manor on Long Island? This is the leaflet that the real estate company sent me."

"It seems you like it very much."

"Of course, like in "Downton Abbey", I can ride a horse."

Harper has fantasized.

Matthew and Mary, on the street in spring, two people who love each other walk together, the spring is bright outside, and the heart is full of joy.

In the background is the manor at dawn, and the sky is dark blue.

Everything looks so beautiful!

(Matthew and Mary: a couple in the British TV series "Downton Abbey")

Wei Chen didn't notice Harper's charming fantasy, so he took the coloring page in her hand and read it carefully.

The coloring page outlines a huge building, a Tudor-style palace-style house, with undulating surfaces and beautifully carved decorations.

Surrounded by well-manicured gardening flowers, well-proportioned shrubs and bushes, a winding path leads to the majestic and huge mansion.

"Hmm, looks pretty good."

Wei Chen put the coloring pages on the table.

Yes, he decided to buy a house.

The place is too small, not only not suitable for many people's activities, but also some private activities cannot be carried out.

For example, he wants to build a small underground secret base, which is simply impossible in the bustling New York City.

So he set his sights on Long Island.

The luxury manor he is looking at is located in the eastern part of Long Island, and the price is 15.79 million US dollars.

Grayson also enthusiastically hired a butler for him. It is said that he is a professional who has been in the butler service industry for more than 30 years.

With the advantage of Wei Chen's foresight, the company has achieved great success in the stock market and emerging technology investment fields, and has begun to make a small name in New York.

So Grayson became extra generous.

Not only hired a professional butler for him, but also invited a French chef.

He is responsible for all the wages.

The capitalist society is really extravagant!

After a little emotion, Wei Chen accepted it with peace of mind.

 …

The next day, early morning.

Wei Chen sat at the table, flipping through the latest newspaper

The subpage headline in the New York Times read: Queen Maeve and the Invisible Man Team Up in Attack on Sky-Pricing Mansion!

The newspaper allocated more than half of the page to Maeve, who was full of spring.

I can't see her disheartened appearance last night.

It was reported in the newspaper that the perpetrator had been captured, but the perpetrator was here leisurely reading the newspaper, which has to be said to be a kind of irony.

"Hmph! Ha!"

Suddenly there was a crisp sound outside the window.

It's Leslie practicing the sword!

Harper put a bottle of milk on the table, looked at Leslie outside the window, and frowned, "Leslie's swordsmanship teacher told her not to practice sword alone, otherwise no one will be able to correct her bad habits. "

Wei Chen was a little surprised, "You hired a swordsmanship teacher for her? I thought you, as the guardian, would let her go to a noble school!"

Harper shook his head. "She looks like this. My sister is believed. Going to school or something, poor little Leslie, is probably just a dream."

The sentimental Harper worries about Leslie again.

"Don't worry, if she can skip school, her mouth is so happy that she is grinning to the sky. How is her culture class?"

Poor Wei Chen, who is not yet married, is about to mess with his parents.

Even though his so-called "daughter" looks his age in appearance. If two people are walking on the street, it is estimated that 99% of people will think that they are lovers.

"The grades are good, and the tutor said she is very smart, but her heart is not on her studies."

"Forehead......"

Wei Chen thought of how his school teachers evaluated him in the same way when he was a child.

What a reincarnation of fate!

In the courtyard, Leslie was wearing loose sweatpants, her long hair was tied up, and she was holding a Vladimir steel sword to practice anger.

Under her powerful swing, the one-meter-long steel sword flew like silver lightning.

The fierce and swift sword wind swayed through the space, and then beheaded and killed all imaginary enemies in front of him.

Just by looking at it from a distance, one can feel the power contained in it, which makes people afraid to approach.

"Too many useless moves, Leslie!"

Wei Chen stopped Jian Ji who was sweating.

Seeing Wei Chen coming, Leslie immediately put away his sword and ran to him happily.

"I thought Uncle Eric was going to fool around outside again!"

"Leslie, kids can't use the word 'fool around.'"

Wei Chen said seriously.

"I've grown up! I'm as old as Sister Harper."

Leslie pursed her lips and muttered quietly.

"Ahem, Leslie... the sword just now, the practice method is wrong."

Wei Chen saw that the topic was in danger of getting out of control, so he immediately forcibly corrected it.

"Really? Uncle Eric also knows how to use Western long swords?"

Leslie's eyes widened.

"Uncle knows everything, especially about martial arts."

Wei Chen pretended to be aggressive again.

He has joined the HEMA club with his friends, and he knows a little about long sword practice, so it shouldn't be a problem to guide Leslie, a beginner.

"Wear knee pads and shoulder pads and a visor, Leslie, and raise your steel sword and meet me."

The so-called exchange of swords means that one party attacks with a downward slash, and the other responds with a defensive downward slash. The two sides engage in a clash of steel swords to gain control and overwhelm each other.

Through the exchange of swords, an instant sparring is conducted to determine the side with the more advanced sword skills.

"Really? I'm very good, Uncle Eric. The teacher exchanged swords with me, and the steel sword flew out directly, almost hurting him. Is it really all right?"

The corners of Wei Chen's mouth trembled a little. Leslie in our family was developing more and more in the direction of Wei Liji.

"It's okay, just come on!"
