Natasha and Lin Feng locked eyes, a faint shimmer of light dancing in her pupils. After a brief silence, she let out a sigh of admiration. "Jessica is truly lucky to have met you, sir. It's quite enviable."
Natasha couldn't help but think of her own past. If only someone had been there to help her back then...
But it didn't matter now. The past was the past. What struck her now was the relationship between Lin Feng and Jessica—two people with no biological connection whatsoever.
Her curiosity about Lin Feng deepened. He was a mysterious man, an enigma that she felt a growing urge to unravel.
"Sir, you appear to be of Asian descent? Funnily enough, I've studied a bit of Chinese psychology myself—I believe it's called 'fortune-telling'?" Natasha smiled at him, her eyes smoldering with hidden intent.
She licked her red lips and said silkily, "I see a darkness over your brow, sir. I fear a 'bloody disaster' is in your near future. Why don't you let me give you some... counseling?"
"Oh? And how do you plan to counsel me?" Lin Feng chuckled, playing along with a look of genuine interest.
Natasha stepped closer, her sharp eyes fixed on his. She said with mock seriousness, "It's not very convenient here. Why don't we have a more 'in-depth' exchange of ideas? I can only provide the right help once I have a comprehensive understanding of your... situation."
With that, she took Lin Feng by the hand and led him toward the guest bedroom.
Lin Feng didn't resist. While his physique hadn't reached the level of Thor's godly body yet, he was already far beyond the likes of Captain America. More importantly, he had the Black Shadow Corps guarding him at all times. Even if Natasha wanted to harm him, she wouldn't stand a chance.
He was curious to see exactly what this sexy, dangerous Black Widow was up to.
To Lin Feng's surprise, the moment they entered the room, Natasha pushed him down with surprising force. From there, their "in-depth psychological counseling" truly began.
...
Several hours later.
The room still held the lingering scent of their encounter. Lin Feng finished cleaning up and stood by the window, watching Natasha's retreating figure.
"It seems this was just a probe," Lin Feng murmured to himself, his eyes narrowing.
Natasha's boldness had surprised him, but to him, women were merely a spice to life. He hadn't sensed any real hostility from her. Given his absolute advantage in strength and information, he didn't care about her testing him, nor was he concerned about S.H.I.E.L.D.
Unless Director Fury decided to call in Captain Marvel, the current S.H.I.E.L.D. posed no threat to him. In fact, his interest in the organization was growing. They were a central hub for all the major events in this world. By staying close to them, he was bound to encounter "iconic scenes" where he could check in and claim system rewards.
"Black Shadow Corps, keep an eye on all high-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel!"
Lin Feng gave the order, intensifying his surveillance on the agency. He was looking forward to the next iconic moment.
Surprisingly, he didn't have to wait long. That very evening, an opportunity delivered itself right to his door.
As dusk fell, Jessica returned home. Lin Feng was sitting in the living room and greeted her with a smile. "Jessica, you're back?"
"Yeah," Jessica nodded, walking slowly over to him. She kept her head down, looking as if she had something on her mind.
"What's wrong?" Lin Feng shifted on the sofa, making room for her.
"Lin, I... can I ask you for a favor?" Jessica sat down, her expression forlorn. Her voice was low as she continued, "Tomorrow, the school is organizing a trip to Oscorp Industries for a biological expo. Everyone can invite a friend or family member, but I..."
Her voice trailed off, her eyes welling with tears.
"Jessica, aren't we friends?" Lin Feng reached out and took her hand, his expression sincere. "You were kind enough to take in a jobless wanderer like me. I should be the one thanking you for the invitation!"
He immediately understood the loneliness and grief swirling inside her.The girl's vulnerability was truly heart-wrenching.
Moreover, if Lin Feng's guess was correct, this Oscorp Industries expo was likely the catalyst for the birth of Spider-Man! Since it was such an iconic scene in this world's history, he had no reason to refuse.
"Thank you, Lin!" Jessica looked at him with profound gratitude.
She let him hold her hand without the slightest resistance; instead, it seemed to provide her with a newfound sense of security. Meeting Lin Feng's steady gaze, she couldn't help but lean her head against his shoulder. It was as if she had finally found a sanctuary for her soul.
...
The next morning, Lin Feng and Jessica woke up early. After a quick breakfast, they headed toward the school. According to the school's notice, the students were to gather on campus first before departing together for the Oscorp Industries Biological Expo.
"Lin, thank you for coming with me. I hope this isn't too much of a burden," Jessica said on the bus, still feeling a bit self-conscious. She was terrified of being a nuisance to others.
"It's fine, Jessica," Lin Feng replied with a casual smile, shaking his head. "I'm just an unemployed bum anyway; I'm basically living off you. A little trip like this is nothing."
"Ugh..." Jessica's face flushed a soft pink, and she lowered her head.
Lin Feng watched her with an amused smile. The bus soon arrived at Midtown High, and with Jessica leading the way, Lin Feng entered the campus. They quickly located a large group of Jessica's classmates gathered in the plaza.
One person in particular caught Lin Feng's eye. It was actually...
"Peter Parker? And Gwen Stacy?!"
