This is an unexpected meeting for Joey.

He was still holding the towel in his right hand, but his original movement of wiping his hair stopped. When he saw Steve and the others, his body suddenly stiffened.

He was just...too surprised, he didn't expect to see them at this time, even though Joey had decided to let go of his first love, they would be friends in the future, and suddenly found that the other party appeared in the same scene as his relatives, Inevitably there was a moment of discomfort.

But soon, it was only a second or two, and Joey's body relaxed again.

After all, there's nothing to be embarrassed about.

Steve was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that the person in that room was Joey. He subconsciously wanted to get up, but another figure was faster than him.

Tony stood up from the sofa, walked over to Joey, raised his hand and put it on his shoulder, not minding that his sleeves were wet by Joey's hair, and challenged these people on the sofa. Eyebrow smiled, "Let me introduce you, Little Joey, these people will be superheroes who will be my colleagues in the future—"

"Hawkeye Button, although he's not as handsome or as good as me, at least his archery skills are not bad," he pointed to the man with short brown hair, and then looked at Natasha, "S.H.I.E.L.D. The female agent Natasha has more eyes than anyone else, and as for him—"

Tony's eyes fell on the man with blond hair and green eyes, "Steve, Captain America, who was active on the battlefield during World War II, don't look at him looking young now, little Joey."

The words paused, the corners of Tony's lips raised, and he said with a half-smile, "Actually, he is old enough to be your grandfather. After all, he was of the same age as my father, that is, your grandfather. He was not recognized until recently." A 90-year-old man dug out of the ice."

Joey: "..."

Barton: "..."

Steve: "..."

This is really a typical Stark introduction style.

Natasha crossed her chest, and she took Tony's words as wind. After all, this is the best way to prevent herself from becoming irritable when facing Tony. She smiled at Joey, "Nice to see you again, Joe."

"It seems that you have known each other before this." Tony said.

"Yes," Joey said, holding a towel in his hand, and followed Tony to the sofa. "Steve lives next door to me. We're neighbors."

Tony showed a clear expression. When he saw Steve's reply on Twitter, he was still wondering when this guy met Joey. Was it because of the neighbors?

"Sit here." Tony sat down where he was originally sitting, and patted himself.

Joey didn't sit down right away, he grabbed the towel and smiled, "I think you guys have something to talk about, so maybe I'll go back—"

"No, wait," Tony cut him off, turning his head to look at Steve, raising his eyebrows, "What Rubik's Cube are you talking about, is it important?"

Steve hesitated for a moment, he looked at Tony, then at Joey, and shook his head for a while.

"That's right." Tony snapped his fingers, turned his head and showed Joey a smug smile, and when Joey sat beside him, his original non-standard sitting posture immediately became more relaxed, his body Leaning on Joey, holding his shoulder with his right hand, he said in a lazy, casual tone, "If you really want to leave, it shouldn't be you, dear."

"They are the group of people who ran over suddenly, and you were brought by me myself."

Steve just smiled at this. He has always had a good temper and is very tolerant. Naturally, he would not be angry because of Tony's words, while Natasha was unobtrusively observing the situation between Joey and Steve , she had thought that Steve had talked it up with Joey, but from what she found, it might have turned out a little bit badly.

Barton ate the donut in silence. He decided to keep silent unless necessary, because he was very worried that he couldn't help but quarrel with the guy who would become their companion in the future.

"Hey," Tony stopped him, and he looked at Barton with a somewhat unkind expression, "Don't you think your appetite is a little too big?"

Questions appeared in Barton's eyes, he hesitated and pointed to himself, and Tony nodded affirmatively.

"..." He took a deep breath and exhaled again, telling himself to be patient. After all, it is impossible for the Avengers to start a civil war just after they were created. So relieved in his heart, Barton stopped eating donuts. .

He looked left at Steve, then at Natasha, with obvious meaning in his eyes——

Are we just sitting there?

Barton wanted to leave eagerly. After all, they came this time to talk to Tony about the Rubik's Cube. Since the other party's nephew was here, the matter couldn't go on. In fact, it was nothing to come back another day. He just thought If he sat down again, he might have a fight with this Stark.

When Steve spoke, hope appeared in Barton's eyes.

"I thought you were at school now, Joe."

Patton:? ? ?

Hey man, don't you wanna say we're getting ready to leave?

Joey was wiping the water dripping onto his neck with a towel, but he raised his head after hearing Steve's question, "Thanksgiving is coming soon, and the school is on vacation for a week. When Thanksgiving is over, I'm not going back to school until next Wednesday."

His tone was relatively casual, and it could be seen that he was already very natural when facing Steve. When answering Steve's question, he even smiled, just like facing a normal friend.

"...That's good." Steve said, he pursed his lips, with a gentle smile on his face, and finally said what Button wanted to hear, "We have to go, there are still things to do. Tony , we will contact you again at that time."

At the same time, the entertainment host's voice on the TV paused, and when it sounded again, it was exactly the second after Steve's voice fell:

"Wow, I don't know if you still remember the nephew of Iron Man who was talking about it before, oh, yes, he was really imposing when he attacked the group of reporters at the press conference. I think there should be many young girls. Interested, after all, you have confessed to him on Twitter..."

The few key words in this sentence are enough to attract the attention of the people present at this time. When they all looked at the host on the TV, the host just showed a mysterious smile and said to the screen:

"With the latest news, we found out that this young man's sexual orientation is about to make girls feel sad. He seems to like men, and he has confessed to a man—"

With a "snap", just as the host was talking excitedly, the TV suddenly went dark. Tony turned his head and saw Joey holding the remote control in his hand.

Joey put down the remote control with a natural expression, and smiled at Tony, "Uncle, I'm a little shy." As he spoke, he pointed to Steve and the others who were standing not far away.

Tony raised his eyebrows suspiciously, but in the end he didn't say anything, barely believing that Joey was embarrassed to talk about his relationship in front of Steve and them.

Joey breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know how the media found out about it, but he subconsciously felt that even if it couldn't be concealed, at least it wouldn't be known by Tony when another party was present. .

That was definitely something he didn't want to see.

It's not that Joey regrets what he's done, he just can't help but think of the adjective Tony used to introduce him to Steve, look, what could be a grandfather, what an old man, maybe Steve They thought it was Tony's habitual insult, but for Joey, he was keenly aware of his own reasons for this.

Obviously, Tony said this on purpose, to reduce the probability of Joey liking Steve as much as possible.

"Ding-dong-"

Just when Joey was relaxing, his cell phone rang. It was a push from the Internet. He had just glanced at it casually, and then his eyes stopped. When he realized that he raised his head suddenly, it was too late up.

Tony was standing at the door, talking to Natasha, Steve was obviously distracted, and looked at Joey from time to time, while Button put his hands in his pockets and waited for them to finish.Their mobile phones rang a reminder almost at the same time as Joey, and they all took it out casually and glanced at it, so they also saw the title——

"Tony Stark's nephew's confession was rejected, and the confessor was of the same sex"

Under the title, there is a line of relatively small words, which reads "This man must have never thought that the person he rejected was..."

Tony squinted his eyes when he saw 'Confession rejected', especially when he saw the short string of words below, followed by an ellipsis that was still unfinished, he stopped talking with Natasha and clicked on this news.

Tony just wanted to know who rejected Joey. Of course, he didn't say what he would do to this person. He was just really curious about what kind of type Joey liked. Tony felt that when he held another banquet, Anyway, there is such a goal, isn't it?

He originally went to this news with such a relaxed thought that he was going to tease Joey later.

The news said in a joking tone that if the man who rejected Joey knew that the person he rejected was Iron Man's nephew and a relative of the super rich man in country M, he would regret it. Below is a video.

The picture of the video was a bit shaken, and the picture quality could be seen that it was shot by a mobile phone. The background was an amusement park. The black-haired boy was obviously Joey. He said something to the man in front of him in the video, then took a step forward and looked up. It was obvious that he wanted to place a kiss on the side of the man's face, but he avoided it.

There are a lot of pedestrians in the amusement park, and the voice is a bit noisy, so I can't hear what the people in the video are saying, but it can be seen from the movements and expressions that they are confessing.

It's over, Joey thought desperately.

He watched the expression on Tony's face change from relaxed to rigid, and then from rigid to calm. However, judging from the throbbing veins on Tony's forehead, this calmness was obviously not real.

"I think we need to talk, Steve," Tony said deadpan.

Steve was also looking at the picture in the video, recalling what happened at that time, which made his face show a complicated expression, maybe because of the difference between then and now, when he heard Tony's words, His eyes pulled away from the video and fell on Tony's face.

He nodded calmly, without any sign of evasion.

"I don't think there is anything to talk about, uncle."

Joey's voice came between the two of them, with a smile on his face, trying to let Tony know that it was nothing, "Uncle, it's just that I liked Steve, it's normal, isn't it, Everyone has someone they like."

"Yes, of course it's normal to like it," Tony said lightly, "but as long as this person has a bit of morality, he won't seduce a boy at the age of 90."

Joey twitched the corners of his mouth because of Tony's words, and he said helplessly, "No, it's not that he seduced me, it's that I fell in love with him. You see, even these reporters can see that it's my confession."

"Yes, you confessed," Tony said, when he no longer looked at Joey, but stared at Steve, his tone became sinister, "And this old Popsicle rejected you."

"I didn't quite understand this kind of emotion at the time. It was a bit sudden for me to be confessed by the same sex for the first time," Steve whispered, his expression was very serious, even though he was glanced at by Tony's death light at the moment He said, but he still expressed his thoughts, "I did feel that although I had a crush on Joe, it wasn't that kind of liking, so—"

"So you rejected him," Tony's expression became more and more gloomy, and his voice almost squeezed through his teeth, "Of course I heard it, I don't need you to repeat it, the key is where do you have the confidence to reject a Stan?" Tucker."

Joey: ...

He put his hand on his forehead, please, uncle, don't make it sound like everyone in the Stark family is a heartthrob.

"Yes, I rejected him at the time," Steve nodded, his tone became a little lower, "but later, after experiencing some things, I discovered that feelings are not static. Before I realized I actually fell in love with Joe when I was—"

"STOP!" Tony interrupted him loudly, and he said viciously, "Tell me, you fell in love with Joey?!"

Barton and Natasha had retreated a long time ago, deciding not to get involved in this death aura, but when they listened to the communication between the three, especially what Tony said, Hawkeye couldn't help but raised his hand and pushed Natasha away. Tasha whispered, "So what exactly is Stark thinking?"

It is impossible to refuse, and it is even more impossible to like it. It is really difficult for Barton to understand Tony's thoughts.

Natasha put her index finger between her lips and hissed softly. She glanced at Barton, her lips moved, and she said in a very soft voice, "Eat less peanut butter, maybe you will understand."

Patton:? ? ?

What does it matter about his favorite peanut butter?

On the other side, Joey was still trying to ease the atmosphere, "Uncle, I think maybe we should calm down, there is nothing wrong with Steve in the whole thing—"

Steve: "No, I did, because I ended up falling in love with you—"

Steve always remembered the words Tony said to have a good talk. He thought that what the other party needed was his frank attitude, so he said these sincerely and from the bottom of his heart. He understood Tony's anger very well.

However, the effect may not be the same as he imagined.

"enough!"

Tony said angrily, "The Avengers are disbanded today!"

With a bang, he slammed the door and went out.

However, in less than half a minute, the door was kicked open again, and Tony walked back angrily, then took Joey's hand, and angrily took him out of the place together.

Their figures disappeared behind the closed elevator doors, leaving Steve frowning, and Natasha and Barton beside him.

Button: "...Did he forget that this territory is actually his?" The implication is that according to Tony's actions in the past, he should drive them out instead of leaving by himself.

Natasha shrugged: "Obviously, he was out of breath."

Barton looked at Steve silently.

However, even if Tony was dizzy with anger, he didn't forget to take his nephew with him to leave.
