He's Spider-Man in Marvel, but he insists I'm Superman.

Peter took a deep breath, his eyes filled with solemnity, and met Uncle Ben and Aunt May's somewhat surprised gazes as he spoke, word by word.

"Uncle Ben, Aunt Mei, what I'm saying is true. Our family is indeed a multi-millionaire now."

The moment he finished speaking, the living room fell into a deathly silence.

Aunt Mei's spoon clattered against the edge of the porcelain bowl, the crisp sound suddenly breaking the silence.

She stared blankly at Peter, her gentle eyes filled with disbelief, and the composure and gentleness on her face gradually faded, leaving only bewilderment and astonishment.

"Peter...are you kidding me?"

Aunt May even reached out and touched Peter's forehead, fearing that he was delirious from a fever.

"Peter, don't talk nonsense. How could our family suddenly become billionaires?"

Uncle Ben, who had just sat down, froze on his face.

He initially thought Peter had gotten into trouble at school and was preparing to patiently counsel him.

But Peter's words struck him like a thunderbolt.

Uncle Ben frowned, his eyes serious and solemn as he carefully examined the boy in front of him.

In his mind, Peter had always been a sensible and frugal child who never coveted vanity and would never tell such an absurd lie.

But the boy's extremely serious expression at this moment showed no hint of joking.

"Peter, you can't joke like that."

Uncle Ben's tone turned serious, his steady voice carrying a hint of solemnity.

"One should be down-to-earth. Wealth never comes from nowhere. Have you encountered a swindler, or have you been misled by some bad people?"

The two were filled with shock and bewilderment, completely unable to accept this unbelievable news.

Ordinary and frugal days have long been etched into their family's lives.

The word "billionaire" is as unattainable as the stars in the sky for them.

"Aunt Mei, Uncle Ben, I don't have a fever, and I'm not talking nonsense!"

Peter was somewhat helpless. Sure enough, given his status as a minor, his words were basically not credible.

Fortunately, at that moment, a loud roar of a sports car engine suddenly came from outside the door.

laugh!

With a screech of brakes, the luxury supercar came to a steady stop at the entrance of the courtyard, its doors opening up like wings.

Tony Stark, dressed in a tailored suit, wearing sunglasses, and sporting a carefree smile, slowly walked down the street.

With one hand in his pocket and his usual nonchalant and playful smile on his lips, he exuded the arrogant air of a chosen one and started teasing from across the courtyard gate.

"Sorry, sorry, this is my first time here, I'm a little unfamiliar with the area, I'm a bit late. It seems our little Peter's showdown isn't going too smoothly?"

Tony pushed open the door and walked straight into the room, showing no signs of awkwardness and exuding the composure and confidence of a top-tier tycoon.

"Why are you so late?"

Peter looked at the flamboyant Tony and asked, somewhat speechless.

"Don't worry, leave everything else to me!"

Tony finished speaking confidently to Peter and then turned his gaze away.

He glanced at Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei, whose faces were full of astonishment, his smile undiminished, his tone relaxed yet carrying an undeniable air of authority.

"You two need not doubt this; it is not a joke, much less a scam."

……

"You are... Tony Stark, the guy who's always in the gossip news?"

Uncle Ben, who reads the newspaper regularly, was the first to recognize the somewhat flamboyant Tony, after all, his scandalous stories are a regular feature of some gossip media.

"That's right, it's me!"

Tony wasn't embarrassed at all by his frequent appearances in the news for his scandalous affairs; in fact, he seemed quite proud of it.

How did you two meet?

However, Tony's arrival did not make Uncle Ben and his companion happy; instead, it made them very wary.

It's impossible for a billionaire to suddenly appear in a working-class neighborhood for no reason, and even know a kid like Peter from that neighborhood.

They'd heard that some wealthy people had very unusual fetishes, could it be...?

"You must be Peter's guardians. It's a pleasure to meet you!"

Tony took off his sunglasses and turned his gaze to Uncle Ben and Aunt May, seemingly unaware of the wariness in their eyes.

"You have a good child."

"Stop with the nonsense and get straight to the point."

Peter, who was standing next to Tony, interrupted him and reminded him.

"Well, okay, this might sound unbelievable to you, but... your child is now... a billionaire."

Tony's expression turned serious, and his tone became very solemn.

A brief silence fell over the room as Tony finished speaking.

Aunt May covered her mouth with her hand, her shocked gaze shifting back and forth between Peter and Tony.

"Peter, this is the actor you hired, here to play along with your act, right?"

After a long silence, Uncle Ben still couldn't believe it and questioned it.

"How could that be? None of those actors have my handsome and charming charisma!"

Tony immediately retorted, saying he didn't want to be treated like an actor.

"So you're planning to keep Peter as a sugar daddy?"

Uncle Ben suddenly uttered a sentence that made both of them change their expressions drastically.

"Hou Lei, shit! My sexual orientation is absolutely fine; I only like beautiful women!"

Tony immediately retorted.

"Me too!"

……

The unusual topic just now caused a moment of silence in the room.

Tony quickly snapped out of his silence, slightly raised his chin, and regained his casual and carefree demeanor, typical of Tony's confident and flamboyant style.

"I am Tony Stark, the head of Stark Industries, and Peter is my personally approved research partner."

"He has considerable scientific research talent and helped me overcome many key technical problems. I gave him the full amount of wealth through a legitimate and legal asset donation."

"All assets are from clean and legal sources, and each transaction has complete legal documents, bank records, and tax payment certificates, so there is no risk whatsoever."

Tony spoke clearly and calmly, without the slightest exaggeration or pretense; the demeanor of a top-tier tycoon was palpable.

Uncle Ben and Aunt May were stunned for a moment, staring blankly at Peter and Tony in front of them, their eyes filled with shock.

Unexpectedly, the famous Tony Stark personally came to testify for his own child.

Aunt Mei instinctively covered her mouth, her eyes filled with disbelief, unable to utter a word for a long time.

At this moment, although their worries gradually dissipated, they were replaced by a huge sense of disorientation and shock.

Uncle Ben also completely abandoned his serious expression, his eyes filled with solemnity.

He had lived most of his life and never imagined that his ordinary family would suddenly become involved with Tony Stark, let alone that his nephew would suddenly become a billionaire.

Tony, seeing their shocked and stunned expressions, maintained his nonchalant and carefree demeanor and added half-jokingly.

"Don't worry, my character, Tony Stark's, is far more reliable than that of most capitalists on the market."

"Now that you have such an excellent child as Peter, you will no longer have to struggle for rent and living expenses, and you can live as you please from now on."

Peter stood aside, watching Uncle Ben and Aunt May, who were completely shocked and gradually accepting the situation. His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally began to settle down.

With Tony testifying, all doubts and anxieties vanished.

Fortunately, Uncle Ben and Aunt May were in good health, without high blood pressure, heart disease, or other illnesses, and were not overwhelmed by such an astonishing amount of money.

"Peter? Is this all true?"

At this moment, even though they already believed everything, they still wanted to make a final confirmation with Peter.

"That's right, Uncle Ben, Aunt Mei, we have money now, and you won't need to work so hard anymore."

"I'm planning to buy a villa, and my whole family will move in... Please feel free to tell me any wishes you may have!"

Peter's eyes were filled with heartache. They had raised him with all their heart, and now it was time to repay them.

"Peter, forget about the villa, we're not used to living there."

Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei exchanged a glance and slowly shook their heads. They were used to living in the working class and were not used to the life in the mansions of the wealthy.

"Actually, your Aunt Mei and I have always had a wish..."

"When we have money, we'll buy a farm!"
