EP One Thousand One Hundred and Fifty-Eight.Guests Arrive
From the standpoint of Thor and others, attending the Hundred Days Banquet was only a secondary reason. Witnessing the scene where Shi Xiaolei accepted the little guy as his goddaughter was the main reason.
After all, when it comes to their relationship, they have more frequent interactions with Shi Xiaolei and are more familiar with each other. In comparison, neither Thor, who has lived on earth for a period of time, nor Loki, who once recruited Stark in Asgard, can be considered Stark's best friend. It's just a friendship between ordinary friends.
To put it more bluntly, their friendship with Stark was far inferior to their familiarity with Shi Xiaolei.
There is a difference between closeness and distance, and it is clear to whom the face is given.
Of course, the reason why they were teleported to Shi Xiaolei's home instead of going directly to Stark was not just because these people were more familiar with Shi Xiaolei.
Another part of the reason is that Stark, Pepper, and Shi Xiaolei allocated their respective reception areas after discussing with each other.
Stark is responsible for receiving the 'big shots', Pepper is responsible for receiving relatives, family members and ordinary friends, and Shi Xiaolei is responsible for receiving all guests related to extraordinary elements.
For example, these people from Asgard.
For example, the Inhumans led by Jia Ying.
Another example is Nick Fury and Coulson in S.H.I.E.L.D., as well as Captain America, who is temporarily at the mercy of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Having said that, in fact, neither the Stark couple nor Shi Xiaolei thought of inviting Nick Fury to attend today's party. Even if Shi Xiaolei hadn't mentioned it, Stark would never have thought of sending an invitation to Coulson. The only person he actually included on the guest list was Captain America.
It was entirely Nick Fury's idea to come to this party.
It is worth mentioning that this guy Lu Dan is quite clever - he did not appear with Coulson and Captain America, but appeared next to Peggy Carter as a protector, teleporting with her The door arrived at Shi Xiaolei's home.
"Director Fury?" He didn't expect him to appear in this way. Seeing Nick Fury behind the wheelchair, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Long time no see, Mr. Locke." Nodding to Shi Xiaolei, Nick Fury gave an explanation: "Ms. Carter is an important figure in our bureau, and I must ensure her safety."
"Hello, Mr. Locke."
Although she has been retired for many years, as one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D., Peggy Carter has never given up her attention to S.H.I.E.L.D.
Either she took the initiative to ask, or Nick Fury reported some information when he wanted to seek advice. Peggy Carter had a relatively detailed understanding of the situation of Shi Xiaolei's family.
It was precisely because she knew how extraordinary Shi Xiaolei's family was that she agreed to Nick Fury's request to let him attend today's event with her as an escort. Including taking the initiative to take over the conversation at this moment, it was also to interrupt Shi Xiaolei's continued questioning of Nick Fury and to give the younger generation a solution.
"Hello, Ms. Carter, nice to meet you." Seeing Peggy Carter holding the armrests of the wheelchair with both hands, seemingly trying to stand up, Shi Xiaolei quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hands: "You always sit, sit still Just don’t get up..."
Before Shi Xiaolei could put his hand to support Peggy Carter, Captain America had already taken the lead and came to her side first: "Peggy."
"Steve, I can do it." Giving Captain America a smile, Peggy Carter shook her head gently: "I sit in a wheelchair to save energy. I haven't reached the point where I can't stand up at all."
While signaling Captain America not to be nervous, he stood up with his help.
Peggy Carter looked up at Shi Xiaolei who was standing in front of her, with a gentle smile on her face, and stretched out her right hand to him: "Mr. Locke, I have to say thank you. Thank you for the potion and the medicine you brought. Those technologies that came back, without those, maybe I can only lie in the hospital bed and look at the scenery outside through the window, instead of continuing to enjoy the warmth of the sun and the fragrance of the grass like now."
Captain America, who was supporting Peggy Carter, could clearly feel her thinness.
While feeling a little sad in my heart, I also realized how attached and reluctant Peggy Carter was to this beautiful world as a dying old man.
"Thank you, Locke." With a hint of regret mixed in, Captain America couldn't help but say thank you.
"You don't have to be like this, Ms. Carter." Shaking his head and looking at Captain America, Shi Xiaolei smiled: "Captain, you know, I am the most uncomfortable with this kind of atmosphere. So, let's relax a little and don't be too nervous. It’s official, okay?”
"Well……"
"Ms. Carter, I have some special drinks here, you can try them." His eyes turned back to Peggy Carter, Shi Xiaolei winked deliberately, and changed into a slightly casual tone as if joking: " Sugar-free, carbonated, and alcohol-free…”
Matching Shi Xiaolei's tone, Peggy Carter also deliberately pretended to be disdainful: "What's so delicious about that?"
"Uh..." After a pause, Shi Xiaolei laughed: "Although the taste is very ordinary, the effect is quite good. It supplements experience, nourishes the body, and has no side effects. Of course, if you think it has no taste, you can also mix it with it. Some juice or honey. Haha, I dare not say anything else. The quality of the juice and honey I have here is absolutely top-notch, and it’s the kind that aliens can’t help but raise their thumbs after drinking it.”
"Really? Then I want to have a good taste."
"No problem, I guarantee your satisfaction." Shi Xiaolei pointed back at the space on the lawn and shook his head: "It's over there. Let's go over and sit for a while?"
"OK."
Just as he was about to leave, a figure suddenly flashed a few meters away, and several people suddenly appeared.
Although he knew very well that this was Shi Xiaolei's home and there could be no danger, the years of military service as an agent still made Nick Fury and Captain America subconsciously make some actions.
"!" Shi Xiaolei was also startled, but fortunately he reacted quickly enough and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Nick Fury: "Don't be nervous, put your gun away, Director Fury. These are My friends, my own people.”
That was the moment when he didn't see clearly who was coming. His heartstrings tightened. A second or two later, Nick Fury had already lifted his guard: "I overreacted. I'm sorry... that, from the Inhumans." Friends, are you okay? I hope I didn’t scare you. I’m sorry.”
