Chapter 168
No matter how many replies were received on the post about Carl and Lex in the jj forum, the outside world is generally most concerned about other things now.
For example, Carl.Why on earth did Al unilaterally announce on Facebook that he would be with Bruce.Wayne broke up?
Bruce.And why hasn't Wayne responded to the news until now?
Three days have passed, but the popularity of Carl's news on Facebook has not diminished but increased, and even attracted a large number of people to register as Facebook users, just to leave messages under his Facebook .
But of course Karl knew how enthusiastic people would be about such news.
He hasn't opened Facebook since the last time he sent a message. In addition to completing the work that belongs to Superman every day, he just stays in his room, quietly reading, drawing, and doing some small handicrafts to pass the time.
Reporters flocked outside the gate of Ayer Manor, and the cameras started to work, aiming at the inside of the manor non-stop. These "uncrowned kings" were expecting Karl to step out of the manor, and he would definitely sit in his seat when he went out. In a luxury car, but the reporters who came here are experienced and know how to deal with a top rich man like Karl.
As soon as Karl appeared, they rushed forward and blocked Karl's car with their mortal bodies. Even if Karl hired the best driver, they could not escape the human wall formed by them.
Too bad they got the wrong idea.
Assuming Karl really shows up, he will tell these reporters what a "suspension car" is with practical actions, but what about the actual situation?These days, as Carl.Carl never stepped out of the bedroom door when Al was there.
His life is very leisurely. After all, he has always lived in seclusion, and he doesn't go to parties or any kind of public activities at all. As long as he doesn't want to go out, he can stay at home until the end of the world.
And Bruce.Wayne was not treated so well.
In order to maintain his personality, he had to bite the bullet and continue to attend invitations from people from all walks of life, from luxury parties to new car exhibitions, from golf to supermodel catwalks, everywhere he went, there were hundreds of wolf-like people behind him. Hudi waited for the reporter he spoke to.
They didn't dare to put the microphone in the Gotham Prince's face.
Everyone knows Bruce.Wayne's young master temper, not long after he returned to Gotham City, because he was interrupted by the reporters to have fun with the supermodels who he invited to the pool to play in the water, he directed the supermodels to use high-pressure water guns to kill those supermodels. Reporters knocked down one after another.
Anyone who experienced the grand occasion at that time will never forget it. The huge momentum carried by the high-pressure water gun made the reporters unable to stand still and fell to the ground one after another. Microphones, cameras and other bits and pieces of equipment fell to the ground. And all of them were declared scrapped. The fallen journalists piled on each other and pushed each other, losing their minds because of the shock and pain, screaming and crying.
And Bruce.Wayne, standing on the high ground with a beautiful supermodel in his arms, looked at the chaos at the scene and laughed.
Since then, no one has dared to offend Gotham Prince face to face. No one knows what absurd things he can do after being angered by reporters. After a few shots, the most expensive legal team in the world can be invited to exonerate him.
But Bruce.Wayne is very tolerant of those unreasonable gossip and fictional gossip related to him. It seems that as long as the scene does not offend him, he doesn't bother to pay attention to the reporters who are like tarsus maggots.
Of course, Carl knows how miserable Bruce's life has been recently, and he can also guess how Lucius will hate the ironclad and scold him in a roundabout way. This is also the original intention of Carl to publish that news.
— mobilize the power of the people to condemn Bruce and make him a little trouble.
Even Dick couldn't help asking Bruce today: "How did you mess with Carl? My classmates are asking me what the hell happened. Hey Bruce, you haven't introduced me to your best friend yet!" "
Bruce slumped on the sofa, his face full of lovelessness.
For Carl, one of the great things about having a boyfriend who doesn't work very much but is actually busy is that he isn't always there for you.
Well, for a normal, normal relationship, that's not a benefit, but for a relationship between Carl and Lex that requires a lot of distance, Lex's hustle is very appropriate.
They haven't seen each other since the last time they were apart, but they video chat with each other every day, and when Carl is bored—that's pretty much him as Carl.Any time Al ever- texted Lex as soon as there was something to talk about.
Lex didn't choose to shy away from asking about Carl's Facebook message.
"I'm so bored" was the first message Carl sent him.
His reply was also short: "Then we can talk about you and Wayne."
"It's nothing to talk about." Carl tried to muddle through. "It's just an ordinary quarrel."
"Ordinary quarrels don't go to the point of breaking up, honey."
"I don't really want to break up with him! I'm just very unhappy, so I don't want to talk to him."
"I get it," Lex replied, "You're just kidding him like 'I don't want to talk to you, you figure it out', right?"
Carl read the news three times, and suddenly felt a little complicated: "I think I'm so naive when you say that."
"You've always been so cute, honey. What's more, it shouldn't be like this when you really want to break up with someone. Most people who really want to break up with people won't have such a declaration. Have you read those messages on your Facebook? Almost none People believe that you really want to break up with Wayne."
Carl responded with a string of ellipses to Lex, and the subject ended, and Lex never brought it up again.
When he put away his phone, he met Louise's interested face.
The bustling lights reflected every smiling mask, and the faint smile at the corner of her lips added a lot of color to her.
Today she is still radiant, enough to shame all the women who entered the venue with their beauty.
The eye-catching mint green long dress is attached to her body like a second skin, her long hair is pulled sideways, a thin green and white emerald hairpin is inserted obliquely, and the ends of long tassel earrings are on her collarbone Swaying, attracting people's attention.
In her hand was a half-full glass of champagne.
"Good evening, Lex." She spoke calmly amidst the bustling background sound, "Didn't Carl come with you?"
"Long time no see, Louise." Lex responded politely, "I'm afraid he hates such occasions the most, so he is unlikely to appear here, unless he planned a surprise for you and is going to suddenly appear from behind you .”
"Why did he surprise me? He should surprise you." Louise was amused.
"I think he has more affection for you than ordinary ladies, which doesn't surprise me, because I admire you too," Lex said.
Of course there is a small problem here, that is, once he finds that Karl is interested in someone, it is difficult for him to continue to have a good impression of the other party; however, on the other hand, once he realizes that someone is interested in Karl Being different, he couldn't keep himself from noticing those people at all.
So Louise is a rather awkward figure for Lex.
While he was disgusted with Carl because of her love for her, he couldn't help but be moved by her decisiveness, bravery and wisdom of action. What's more, Lex knew very well that Louise's contribution to this city is unquestionable of:
She has a keen eye and a sharp writing style, and the corruption in this city has been greatly reduced under her watch; Public welfare activities, strictly treat any charitable fraudulent behavior, and exposed the fraudulent gangs that once held charitable fundraising operations in the metropolitan city, which cheered up the whole city.
It is people like her, ordinary people like her, who have made the greatest and most outstanding contributions in building a better metropolis.
What is Superman in comparison?
He's just flying around with his innate superpowers, doing things like dust off his clothes for him.
His most important stronghold is in the metropolis, but the time he appears in the metropolis is barely equal to the time he appears in all parts of the world.
"Thank you for your compliment, Lex." Louise said softly, her smile deepened a little, and a halo of pleasure rose from her cheeks, obviously she also felt sorry for Lex.Luthor had a strong impression, "I'm also impressed by your charitable initiatives over the years. Subsidies to orphanages, public facilities for the disabled, insistence on urban greening—you have ensured that each of them is When it comes down to it, it’s a pretty remarkable achievement.”
"I just did what anyone who relies on this city to succeed should do. I beautified her as much as possible, adorned her, and gave her back. I didn't pay anything. These small things are within my power." Rex Smiling and raising the champagne in his hand, "To the metropolis. May she always be as brilliant as she is today."
"To the Metropolitan City."
Louise also raised the champagne with a smile, and drank it down.
She was in a good mood, so she didn't realize that Lex was only taking a sip in contrast to her boldness.
But even if she realized this, she wouldn't be surprised, after all, like Lex.People like Luther always pay attention to keeping calm at all times.
After a few polite conversations like this, Louise left from Lex's side. She is not a person who likes parties, and every event she attends has a clear goal and purpose, and this time is no exception.
She was chasing down the details of a pharmaceutical company. A reliable informant suggested to her that the pharmaceutical company was using orphans and homeless people for illegal experiments. In order to get on line with the company's executives, Louise chose to attend this banquet.
If she had known what was going to happen tonight... she would have followed Lex so closely that he would not leave her sight.
