I don't understand why you give me choice, my preference is trivial. But if you're wondering, I don't need food.

Pepper knew it wasn't true - Loki did need food - his thin frame made his bones protrude amazingly. She was about to say that when Qin Feng pulled her aside.

Qin Feng whispered, "I know he looks like a Halloween decoration now, but he might live longer. If he's going to trust us, we'll have to let him make a decision. Pepper has finally eased, though Not fully relieved yet. She's approaching Loki again.

"It's okay if you don't want to eat right now...but are you thirsty? I don't think you've had anything to drink yet.

Loki listened to her words with a strange expression on his face. He seemed to struggle for a few seconds, then wrote an answer, nervously handing her the notebook "707".

If I'm allowed to drink water, I'll take it

Pepper looked gleefully at Loki, and he flinched, expecting unpleasantness. However, his response didn't make Pepper happy with his response. Loki gave her a chance to prove her word.

"Loki, you're not allowed or allowed anything. You can definitely drink water. You just have to ask." Pepper walked over to a table with a pitcher and two glasses in hand . She filled one, and then, on second thought, filled another.

If Loki also drinks, she might be reassured to prove she doesn't have poison. She sat across from his bed, handed Loki a glass, and drank her own. Loki watched it empty into her mouth, maybe waiting for her to stop suddenly, or cry out in pain.

However, that didn't happen, and he tentatively raised the glass to his lips, tilting it gently, so that a few drops of water ran down his lips. Cold sweat on his forehead as he swallowed, waiting for the inevitable pain, made Pepper laugh, saying he was a fool for believing her.

However, it turns out that water is harmless. Pepper smiled at her victory, because he drank a little more, he was glad he trusted her a little, and he had the brains to not drink the whole glass. Loki put down the cup, and took out the notebook.

What should I do in return?

That's not a victory. But close enough.

"Nothing, Loki, you don't have to do anything."

Friga patiently waited outside the throne room for Qin Feng to appear. She could have gone in, but he was talking to a few very important diplomats right now, and she didn't want to interrupt her conversation or let anyone hear her.

After a while, Qin Feng and a few people finally appeared, Qin Feng accompanied them to the gate of the palace to say goodbye to them. He came back looking tired but happy.

"How's it going?" Friga asked as she and her husband walked back to their room. "Is it about the treaty?"

"Yes, everything is fine." Qin Feng replied. "I should have been with Thor. He's not as skilled in political matters as some people and the experience will be very rewarding.

Friga laughed. "He was with his friends. I think they went hunting." She lowered her voice. "Tell me, how is Loki?

Qin Feng was not happy when he mentioned his wayward son. "he's good."

"I'm worried about him," Friga said, taking the anger out of her voice and making her seem just a concerned mother. "I know he never liked being with people, but was alone under us. I'll be happy when he's released. 99

Qin Feng put a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "I want to teach him the value of family. Sometimes, those lessons can be learned through deprivation. You don't have to worry about him. He's safe in Asgard."

Friga's blood boiled. Qin Feng was lying about what she knew. But she controlled her anger. Tomorrow she will go to her son.

Playing chess is Team Rice's idea. Pepper wants to do something with Loki to keep his mind away from bad memories. Team Rice suggests playing chess, thinking that Loki might like a strategy game. The captain is right.

After some persuasion, Loki believed that the Rice team wouldn't be angry if he grabbed a pawn, but as the game went on, Loki's nerves quickly disappeared. They all realized what a smart strategist he was; he put the Rice to death in fifteen minutes.

"You should play Natasha Romanoff at some point," Qin Feng said as the rice team was getting ready for the second round. ..."None of us could beat her. When she was drunk, I even played her, and I lost half of it before she remembered my name."

Loki's attention quickly settled on the blackboard. He looked almost happy, though he still winced when someone moved quickly or got too close. But if they needed any proof that his brain was largely intact, they had it when he executed Team Rice again, this time in less than ten minutes. Team Mi smiled and knocked down his cornered Qin Feng.

"You're good at this, have you played it before?

Loki shook his head, Qin Feng choked to death on his drink. "- What the hell?" he splashed. "You're going to kill Natasha Romanoff"

Loki's cheeks were a touch of pink, and he looked at Team Rice, wanting to play again.

"Anyone else want to try it?" Team Rice asked hopefully. "Too cruel"

Qin Feng jumped up. "I volunteered as a tribute!" Pepper rolled her eyes as the billionaire sat across from Loki. The game lasted only five minutes.

"Who is the world chess champion?" Qin Feng asked when Loki cornered Qin Feng, ending the game. "We need to call him. It's unreal. We should have you start with a Qin Feng and a pawn. To be fair."

"Oh, don't be so bad, Qin Feng," Team Mi said.

"Well, what else can we do?" Pepper looked 2.5 with the two Avengers. "Unless you can think of a game that lasts at least 20 minutes.

"Monopoly?" Qin Feng suggested. The rice team's hesitation is undecided, and Loki seems bewildered. "Well. There's always something you don't know. Or Scrabble. Or that place where you shoot every time—"

"Qin Feng!" Pepper and Team Mi shouted in unison.

"We can watch a movie," Team Rice said.

"That's a good idea," Pepper replied. "which one?"

Team Mi and Qin Feng were talking at the same time.

"The Chronicles of Narnia"

"Shapeshifting King Kong"

Pepper waited until the other two were staring at each other. "Midnight in Paris?" 5

"Ah, Pepper, you're the only one who likes that movie, Qin Feng muttered.
