American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 291 Osborne Group's Stock Price Soars

Inside Stark Tower, Tony Stark sat in his private office, his eyes glued to the tweets on his screen.

The screen displayed Bruce Wayne's latest tweet, featuring a photo of Bruce wearing a green hat with the caption, "Thanks to my wife Selena for the hat, I love it." Tony frowned slightly, looking puzzled.

"Although we're both billionaires, I really don't understand what these people are thinking."

Tony muttered to himself. He hadn't expected that, following Harry Osborn, another of his rivals, Bruce Wayne, also seemed to have a penchant for cuckoldry. But Bruce Wayne's tweets were rather cryptic, and Tony couldn't be sure if Bruce actually had these preferences.

Tony turned to the air and said, "Jarvis, what's the probability that Bruce Wayne is a cuckold?"

Jarvis's voice came from all directions: "Based on the existing data analysis, the probability that Bruce Wayne has a penchant for being cuckolded is 39%."

Tony frowned, feeling the probability wasn't certain enough. He called over Happy Hogan.

"Happy, I need you to check if Bruce Wayne has a penchant for being cuckolded," Tony said seriously.

Happy looked puzzled: "Bruce Wayne? A cuckold enthusiast?"

Tony nodded. "Yes, Happy. Go check out his recent tweets; I think there's something off about him. Look him up and see if he's playing any weird games."

After Happy left, Tony Stark sat in his chair, looked at Bruce Wayne's tweet on the screen, and shook his head helplessly. He sighed inwardly:

"Luckily, my wife Pepper loves me very much and would never cheat on me. Besides, she's been getting more and more beautiful lately, and her figure is getting better and better too. Tony, you're really lucky."

Thinking about this, Tony Stark decided that he should spend less time with female celebrities and models and pay more attention to his family, otherwise, what if Pepper Potts cheated on him?

Sigh... The thought of Pepper Potts cheating on Xiao Xian on his mind inexplicably stirred a strange excitement within Tony Stark. He quickly shook his head, trying to banish this horrible idea from his head.

Meanwhile, at a fashion magazine photoshoot, Selena Gomez attended accompanied by Xiao Xian and Bruce. A large number of reporters swarmed around the trio, interviewing them. Flashbulbs went off incessantly as reporters eagerly bombarded the camera with questions.

A reporter pointed to Bruce's green hat and asked with a curious expression, "Mr. Wayne, do you know the meaning of this green hat in Eastern culture?"

Bruce smiled slightly, pointed to his hat, and replied humorously, "We're not in the East now, are we?"

The reporters burst into laughter, instantly easing the tension. Then, another reporter raised his hand and asked, "Don't you get jealous seeing your wife Selena spending more time with her personal assistant, Abin, than with you?"

Bruce laughed and answered calmly:

"We are very good friends, and I absolutely believe in Selena's character and our love. I'm not jealous at all."

Just then, another reporter noticed the bracelet on Xiao Xian's wrist and suddenly realized that the bracelet on Selena's wrist was very similar to it, seemingly a couple's bracelet.

The reporter excitedly raised his hand and asked, "Mr. Abin and Ms. Selena, your bracelets look like matching couple bracelets. Mr. Bruce, aren't you jealous?"

Bruce laughed heartily at the question, appearing very relaxed: "These aren't couple bracelets. They're Selena's team's signature bracelet, symbolizing the unity and cooperation of her team. They're not for couples."

Selena smiled and nodded, holding up her hand to show her bracelet: "Yes, it's just part of our team; everyone has one."

After the interview, the three went backstage and finally found a moment of peace.

Bruce closed the door, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Selena and Xiao Xian, saying with a hint of teasing, "Luckily, they only noticed that your bracelets were matching, and didn't realize that your underwear was also matching."

Selena smiled, nonchalantly saying, "So what if they find out? We can just go public." She turned to look at Bruce, a sly glint in her eyes.

"Honey, didn't you always like posts when you saw comments online saying that Ah Bin and I were having an affair? Why are you backing down now?"

Bruce was a little embarrassed, but still managed a smile. "Aren't you worried about affecting the stock price?"

Xiao Xian took out his phone and said to Bruce with a smile, "Look at Harry Osborn, he's hardly pretending anymore."

Bruce took Xiao Xian's phone and saw a tweet from Harry Osborne on the screen: "Thank you, Xiao Xian, for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come and keep Mary Jane company."

The accompanying photos are a series of pictures of Hsiao Hsien and Mary Jane. In the photos, Hsiao Hsien is dressed very scantily, while Mary Jane is wearing black stockings and high heels, looking very alluring. Some photos show Hsiao Hsien with his arm around Mary Jane, while others show Mary Jane performing a pole dance in front of Hsiao Hsien.

Harry occasionally appears in photos, but always as an observer or messenger.

Bruce looked at the tweet and the photo, and a mix of emotions welled up inside him again. Most of the comments below were filled with envy and praise:

"Mary Jane is so lucky!"

"Waaaaah, when will my husband finally ask Xiao Xian to come and keep me company?"

"Sisters, I'm so envious of this."

Bruce Wayne looked at the comments under the tweet and felt a pang of envy. A thought flashed through his mind: "How wonderful it would be if I could post something like that publicly someday."

Bruce Wayne imagined himself posting a tweet thanking Bin for his company, accompanied by a photo of Bin and Selena Gomez looking very close.

Xiao Xian continued, "Bruce, this is just the surface version. There's an even more in-depth version on On**F*s."

Bruce's heart raced upon hearing this, his excitement growing stronger. He quickly pulled out his phone, opened On**F*s, and searched for Harry Osborn's account. A few seconds later, Harry's profile appeared on the screen.

Bruce didn't hesitate to subscribe to Harry's account, his heart filled with anticipation. He eagerly browsed the content and, sure enough, found even more exciting and in-depth material.

Bruce was very envious of Harry, who boldly openly shared his hobbies.

With a mix of curiosity and skepticism, Bruce decided to check Osborne Group's stock price. He opened his financial app on his phone, searched for "Osborne Group" stock code, and the latest stock market information quickly appeared on the screen.

Bruce was surprised to find that Osborne Group's stock price had not only not fallen, but had actually risen sharply in recent times.

"That's right, that's Xiao Xian."

Bruce thought for a moment and understood why Osborne Group's stock price had skyrocketed. In a sense, this was also a case of the boss making his wife share the sales champion's success.

The capital market was initially worried that Harry's youthful arrogance would clash with Xiao Xian, potentially forcing Xiao Xian out, given previous rumors. But now, it's more than just harmony; Harry is practically kneeling down to call Xiao Xian "father," though who knows if he's actually done so in private.

When Bruce was controlling Big Head last night, he called Ah Bin "Master." Putting himself in Ah Bin's shoes, Bruce thought it wasn't impossible for Harry to call him "Dad."

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Xiao Xian's next contract will almost certainly be signed in Osborn, so it would be strange if the stock price didn't rise.
