"What, what?" Clark straightened his upper body.

"For example, what you call me." Lex lowered his eyebrows, showing an aggrieved look, "You called me Lex before."

"Sorry." Clark apologized subconsciously, "I'm just not used to it,... Lex."

"Ha, you will make me..." Wanting to bully you again, Lex put away his aggrieved expression and said with a smile, "Clark, I just want you to relax, you are too nervous,"

"I just want to be your friend." - Boyfriend is also a kind of friend.

Clark looked at Lex's sincere eyes. Although he always had a subtle sense of crisis in his heart, he still tried to relax himself and said solemnly, "Thank you, Lex."

"Huh?" Lex was inexplicable, Clark seemed quite intimidating when his expression was serious.

"Thank you for saving my mother." With that said, Clark stood up and bowed to Lex.

And thank you for making me choose.

"Ah? Who is your mother?" Lex hurriedly stood up.

"During the attack half a month ago, you blocked my mother and saved her from being injured. Both mother and I are very grateful to you." Clark straightened up and thanked again.

"Well, it seems that we are still very destined." Lex waved his hand with a smile, thinking about the possibility of asking for repayment, and then immediately dismissed this idea. He didn't want to destroy the character design he had maintained for many years .

"Mother hopes to thank you in person. I don't know when you will have time?" Clark hesitated, and said with some embarrassment, "I know you are very busy, I hope you can spare some time, we won't occupy you for too long, If you don't have the time, you don't have..." relationship.

Seeing that Clark was getting more and more confident, Lex interrupted him directly: "I also really want to visit my aunt. She must be a kind lady who can teach a child like Clark."

"Well - we will go tomorrow." Lex made a decision directly.

Clark looked dazed, not knowing why things had suddenly developed to this point, he just wanted to come to the Lex Building with his mother to thank him.

"Don't hesitate, think about it, your aunt will be very happy if you bring your (boyfriend) friend home." Lex took two steps closer and patted Clark on the shoulder.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go to eat, I know a restaurant with good steak." Lex said, pushing Clark out of the living room.

Lex chose a French restaurant. The music in the restaurant was soothing and the lighting was soft. Most of the people sitting were young couples. The whole space was filled with an ambiguous and sweet smell.

Sensing the atmosphere of this restaurant, Clark finally came to his senses, he had the urge to run away.

Lex chose an unobtrusive booth and gestured for Clark to take it.

"Here..." It seemed that it was not suitable for the two of them. Clark carefully moved the chair and sat down uncomfortably. He could already hear someone whispering.

"Well, the steak here is excellent, tender and juicy, you must not miss it." Lex ignored Clark's entanglement.

"Okay, okay." Clark gave up struggling, and he was dejected to find that he had habitually backed down when facing Lex. Lex had a convincing temperament that made people involuntarily follow his instructions. fulfill his wish.

The steak at this restaurant was indeed delicious, which reassured Clark that maybe Lex really only chose this restaurant because of the taste of the food.

Clark concentrated on cutting the steak. Although he was basically able to control his own power and would not destroy anything at will, he was still habitually cautious.

Lex looked at Clark. This man seemed to be very careful all the time. Whether it was dealing with people or other things, he kept a cautious distance. He moved gently when opening and closing the car door, and was testing his strength when he sat down. When cuddling, he acts tense and repulsive, like he's going to accidentally hurt someone and ruin everything.He treats the world as carefully as he treats a butterfly caged in his palm.

Clark has a strong and fit body, maybe he has a lot of strength, and he has accidentally broken something, so he has developed such a habit.

"Clark, you should have many friends, right?" Lex put down the silver-white table knife in his hand, and asked tentatively.

Clark froze. As a person who was kept away as a freak since he was a child, he didn't have many friends.

Sensing that something was wrong with Clark's expression, Lex said with a little surprise: "Did I say something wrong, a gentle and excellent person like you. Would you still be hated by others?"

Hearing Lex's words, Clark's ears turned red. Except for his parents, he was rarely praised so bluntly. He lowered his head and coughed lightly, and said embarrassedly: "I'm not as good as you said. When I was young, I destroyed I have lived a lot, so no one dares to approach me."

Because he didn't control the power when he was a child, he would always inadvertently cause some damage, and others feared and rejected him. Later, he was always careful not to approach others, which made him seem withdrawn and weird, and he had no friends over time.

Until he knew his own background, an alien orphan who lost his hometown and wandered on the earth, such an identity was even more difficult to be recognized, so he pretended to be an ordinary small-town man, well, as long as he didn’t show With supernatural strength, he was just an ordinary town man.

His strategy was very successful. His colleagues at Planet Daily did not reject him, and some people would kindly point him out. However, this was limited to the communication between colleagues, and no one had become friends with him yet.

Thinking of this, Clark glanced at Lex, maybe this rich genius will become his first friend.

Sure enough, Lex smiled inwardly. He put his arms on the table, put his chin in his hands, and said with a smile, "Clark, I'm very happy."

I'm glad you're alone so I can slowly wrap your heart in my palm.

"Actually, I didn't have any friends before, and I was often bullied when I was a child." Lex sighed, "We have shared weal and woe."

"Like you..." Clark didn't know how to describe it, smart, kind, elegant, cheerful... Lex is simply a collection of all beautiful words, "How can no one like a perfect person?"

"Well... because of my health, when I was young, I was a little... strange." Lex said vaguely, "so I was often beaten very badly."

Lex smiled indifferently, he really didn't feel anything about what happened before.

Clark looked at Lex's nonchalant smile, but felt uncomfortable in his heart. Impulsively, he blurted out a sentence: "I can help you!"

Immediately after he reacted, he explained with a flushed face, "I mean, I fight very hard, so I won't hurt you, but..."

In the end, Clark said embarrassingly, "You probably don't need it." With Lex's current status, he naturally wouldn't be bullied, and it wasn't his turn to protect him.

"Haha, I'm not a pitiful person. I'll tell you quietly, I've taken revenge." Lex said with a smile, "Don't tell me, it will ruin my bright and great image."

Clark nodded seriously. Although he said this, people like Lex would probably only retaliate gently like a joke, otherwise, he wouldn't be bullied "often".

Lex quickly changed the subject. Under normal circumstances, he could easily liven up the atmosphere, so the dinner ended on a happy note.Leaving the restaurant, the two said goodbye naturally, and agreed on a place to meet tomorrow. Lex decided to take Clark's car to visit Kent's house.

Lex's car was parked at the corner of the street. After Lex got into the car, he said to Messi in the driver's seat: "Help me buy the Planet newspaper, but don't disclose my information."

After a while, Messi said helplessly. "Sorry, sir, I'm afraid it will be difficult. The Planet Daily was acquired by the Stark Group half a month ago, and the other party has no intention of selling it."

"..." Tony must have done it on purpose.

Lex took out his mobile phone and dialed Tony's number, and soon the call was connected.

"Lex, what do you want from me?" Tony asked knowingly, Clark's interview with Lex was specially arranged by him, and when Lex agreed to be interviewed, he was already waiting for a call from Lex.

"Give me the newspaper, you can ask for any conditions." Lex compromised.

"Ha~ little bastard, you have today too. If you can satisfy me, it's not that I can't promise to give you the newspaper." Tony said triumphantly.

"What do you want me to do?" Lex smiled and asked indifferently.

Tony stroked the bristling hairs on his arms, always feeling that some danger was approaching. The sudden sense of crisis made him throw out the crooked ideas he had thought before, and finally chose a simple request.

"Delete that video, completely."

This little wolf cub didn't seem to be easy to mess with, Tony grinned like a toothache.

"I will be very distressed if I do this." Lex chuckled, the coldness in his eyes gradually subsided, he nodded to Messi, and said regretfully, "It has been deleted."

Lex's cooperation made Tony feel a lot better, so he decided to tell Lex another "good" news: "Clark Kent has a super beautiful female boss, Lex, who is liked by more than half of the men in the Daily Planet." she."

"Don't worry, I won't let him fall in love with others."
