American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 290 Your Wife is Amazing

Bruce Wayne led Xiao Xian and Selena to Wayne Enterprises headquarters. They entered the building, with Bruce walking in front, wearing his green hat.

As soon as Bruce entered the company, his secretary, Caitlin, immediately greeted him. She noticed his green hat at a glance. Caitlin smiled and said, "Mr. Bruce, that green hat you're wearing today is quite nice."

Upon hearing this, Bruce smiled smugly, glanced down at Selena and Xiao Xian, and then said to Caitlin with a smile, "Thank you, Caitlin. I also really like this hat. It was a gift from my wife, Selena."

Caitlin glanced at Selena and smiled, saying, "Miss Selena has excellent taste; this hat suits you very well."

Selena glanced at Xiao Xian and said with a smile, "Thank you, Caitlin. I think this hat suits Bruce very well, so I bought it for him."

Upon hearing this, Bruce felt a complex mix of emotions—a sense of humiliation mixed with an inexplicable excitement. He nodded slightly and said proudly, "I also think this hat is very nice; wearing it makes me feel very confident."

Caitlin nodded and smiled, saying, "That's good, Mr. Bruce. Today's schedule is ready, and you can begin work at any time."

Bruce nodded, then led Selena and Xiao Xian toward his office. Along the way, company employees greeted them, and Bruce's green hat stood out prominently.

Bruce entered the office and sat at his desk, while Selena and Xiao Xian sat on the sofa. Bruce turned on his computer and began handling company affairs, but the excitement and satisfaction in his heart never subsided.

A moment later, Secretary Caitlin knocked on the door and came in with a document in her hand.

"Mr. Bruce, the plan to welcome Aquaman and Mera is ready. Please take a look," Caitlin said respectfully, handing the documents to Bruce.

Bruce took the document, quickly glanced through it, and then nodded: "No problem, let's proceed with this plan."

Caitlin nodded and noted it down, then continued, "Mr. Bruce, the final rehearsal requires your and your wife Selena's attendance."

Bruce looked up and asked, "When is the final rehearsal?"

Caitlin replied, "The day after tomorrow morning."

Bruce turned to look at Selena, who smiled and nodded. Bruce then said to Caitlin, "No problem, my wife Selena and I will be at the final rehearsal the day after tomorrow morning."

Caitlin nodded again to confirm, "Okay, I'll pass this on and make sure everything goes smoothly."

After the secretary left, Selena got up and walked to the large glass window in her office, looking down at the city view. She asked thoughtfully, "Bruce, does this glass allow people to see in from the outside?"

Bruce looked up from the document and replied, "It's one-way glass; you can't see in from the outside."

Selena nodded in satisfaction, turned to look at Bruce, a sly smile playing on her lips: "That's perfect. Honey, you wear your green hat and go outside and keep watch for us. Bin and I have important business to attend to."

Bruce felt a surge of complex emotions welling up inside him, a mixture of humiliation and excitement. He knew what Selena and Xiao Xian were about to do, and although he felt uneasy, the secret thrill made it impossible for him to resist.

"Okay, Selena." Bruce nodded, stood up, put on the green hat, walked out of the office, and closed the door.

Standing outside the office, Bruce took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

Inside the office, Selena walked up to Xiao Xian and said with a smile, "Let's continue, Bin."

Xiao Xian nodded, gently put his arm around Selena, and walked to the glass to begin their "business." Outside the office, Bruce stood in the doorway, his complex emotions growing stronger.

A moment later, Secretary Caitlin walked past the office and saw Bruce standing guard at the door, wearing that conspicuous green hat. He stood ramrod straight, one ear pressed against the door, seemingly listening intently to something. Caitlin felt a little strange and went over to him.

"Mr. Bruce, what are you doing here?" Caitlin asked curiously, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Bruce quickly composed himself, smiling as he said to Caitlin, "It's a secret, Caitlin. I need you to make sure no one else comes near here."

Caitlin felt a little strange, but she knew that Bruce's decisions usually had a reason, so she nodded to show her understanding: "Okay, Mr. Bruce, I'll make sure no one bothers you."

Caitlin turned and walked away, though she was filled with doubt, she still carried out the mission as Bruce instructed.

Bruce stood guard at the office door, trying his best to eavesdrop on what was happening inside, but the office was so well soundproofed that he couldn't hear anything no matter what he did.

Bruce reluctantly gave up his idea of ​​eavesdropping, but the secret excitement in his heart still lingered.

Bruce took out his phone and snapped a picture of himself standing at the office door, wearing a green hat. In the photo, he smiled, his eyes conveying a sense of confidence and satisfaction.

Bruce then edited a new tweet: "Thanks to my wife Selena for the hat, I love it." He attached the photo he had just taken to the tweet, checked it over, nodded in satisfaction, and clicked send.

The tweet quickly garnered a large number of likes and comments after it was posted.

"Mr. Bruce, that hat is truly unique!"

"Miss Selena has excellent taste; the hat suits you perfectly."

In these comments, many people from the East and those familiar with Eastern culture understood the implied meaning of the green hat and made suggestive and humorous remarks.

"Miss Selena has a great eye for gifts, haha."

"A green hat, what an interesting choice!"

Is this some kind of hint?

Bruce felt a complex mix of emotions upon seeing these comments, a mixture of humiliation and an indescribable excitement.

After a long while, the office door opened gently, and Selena and Xiao Xian came out. Selena saw Bruce, wearing a green hat, still standing in the doorway, and teased him.

"Honey, you've been working so hard here."

Bruce immediately shook his head and said, "It's no trouble at all, it's what I should do. You guys are the ones who have worked hard."

Xiao Xian also walked over, smiling as he patted Bruce on the shoulder: "Bruce, your wife is amazing."
