"I know this guy."

"Who is it?" Turning his head over and looking at the man standing side by side with Maya Hansen in the photo, Stark commented disdainfully: "Bad taste, tsk tsk, I guess he and Justin Han It's the same stylist."

"Can't you keep some moral integrity?" Pepper patted Stark gently and smiled angrily: "Well, the color of his suit is not quite right."

"A person named Stark will never make aesthetic mistakes." Stark smiled proudly, and held Pepper's right hand tightly: "Doubting my aesthetics is tantamount to questioning yourself. Not good enough... So, who is this guy?"

"Aldridge Killian. Well... Twelve or thirteen years ago, before I entered the Stark Group, I once interned in a small company for a period of time. He was one of the colleagues I met at that time. one."

"When you just graduated from college?"

"Um."

Arranged according to the timeline, it was Stark who first let go of Aldridge Killian at the Science and Technology Exchange Summit, leaving a bone-deep resentment in his heart, and then Pepper and Aldridge Killian's acquaintance. As for Pepper being poached to join the Stark Group, Killian's founding of Pioneer Technology, the company called Aim, was a further later matter.

It is precisely because of this sequence that Aldridge Killian was ignored by Stark.

On the other hand, if he had gotten to know Pepper first, he would be less likely to be ignored by Stark like that.

It's not that with Pepper's face, Killian will definitely be able to attract investment from Stark. After all, that was more than ten years ago, and it was only in the past few years that Pepper gradually became Stark's biggest concern.

Going back a few years, not to mention the time when she first joined, even seven or eight years ago, Pepper was not qualified to influence Stark's will. She was just a 'little assistant who was easy to use'. With her weight at that time, the most she could do was make Stark tell the truth, instead of just telling people the truth and ignoring the other person's self-esteem like in the original plot. .

Just not lying, not even treating each other with courtesy, let alone asking Stark to put down his dignity and accept the application to achieve cooperation.

"It's quite a coincidence."

He knows Maya Hansen, and Pepper knows Aldrich Killian, but these two people appear in the same photo... He is just a little surprised by this coincidence, and Stark has not yet recognized the person in the photo. Killian, and even failed to match him up with the extremely embarrassed figure in the memory fragments.

To be precise, he didn't realize that he had ever met Killian.

After all, he drank a lot at the time and was anxious to have sex with Maya Hansen. His mind was confused and his consciousness was far less clear than usual. In addition, the conversation between him and Killian only lasted two or three sentences, and the contact time was as short as only a few seconds...

It is no exaggeration to say that if Killian hadn't given the hint himself and the situation at that time was very unfavorable to Stark and made him feel that his life was threatened, he would have had to fight whether he could recall Killian as a person in the original plot. question mark.

He didn't even remember whether he had met him before, so he naturally didn't expect that he was actually regarded as an enemy by Killian. However, seeing that Pepper actually remembered Killian as a person, Stark couldn't help but feel a little jealous and couldn't help but care.

"What does he do? He looks like an agent selling houses."

"What kind of agency? He is also engaged in research. If I remember correctly, he should be an expert in biochemistry." Pepper shook his head: "The company I used to intern at has business cooperation with several large institutions. Although I have never participated in research work and have always worked in the administrative department, and because of my short qualifications, I have not been exposed to many secrets. However, I have always handled some business and have some understanding of the researchers in the company. "

"Expert?" Staring at Aldrich Killian in the photo twice, Stark shook his head with disdain: "I really didn't see it."

"Okay, okay, you're the best, okay." Feeling the jealousy in Stark's words, Pepper felt quite relieved. However, the good cultivation she usually developed still made her want to criticize Stark: "Don't always put others down so low. How many times have I reminded you, don't be sarcastic about others, give yourself a Provoke enemies."

"Anyway, I said it in my own home, and no one knows, so what's the point... Okay, okay, you have the final say."

He didn't continue to argue with Pepper, but that didn't mean that Stark's jealousy had subsided.

Plus a little bit of worry about Pepper bringing up Maya Hansen again...

Stark rolled his eyes, raised his hand and snapped his fingers: "Jarvis, can you find this guy's detailed information?"

"Um?"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just a little curious." Smiling at Pepper, Stark tightened his arms: "Didn't you just say that he is an expert in research? Experts, more than ten years have passed. There must be some achievements...and, as a former colleague, aren't you curious about what achievements he has achieved? "

Before Pepper could respond, Jarvis had dug out another pile of information.

It is worth mentioning that while Jarvis was arranging the information on the page, he also gave a report: "Sir, I found some suspicious content and some encrypted files."

In accordance with Jarvis's report, two rows of thumbnails were arranged in front of Stark and Pepper.

The top row is blue. There are several edges leaking out of the folder-like icon. It seems that this corresponds to the 'suspicious content' mentioned in Jarvis' report.

The thumbnails in the lower row are all dark red. Obviously, these are secret files that need to be decrypted before they can be opened for browsing.

"Really?" Stark raised his eyebrows, raised his hand and clicked on a folder in the row above, and smiled at Pepper: "It seems that your former colleague is indeed a bit... What a skill. Suspicious? Haha, the projects developed by ordinary researchers will not be rated as high as Jarvis..."

With his eyes on Pepper's face, Stark was negligent and did not check the contents of the folder immediately.

then.

"Um?"

"vomit!"

There was a moment of daze, then a sudden panic, and then, before Stark could react, Pepper had already raised her hand to cover her mouth, and escaped from his arms with a retching sound.
