He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 17 Li Chuan and Wanda

Good evening, Pietro!

As soon as Li Chuan pushed open the door and stepped into the living room, he saw his silver-haired brother-in-law walking around the kitchen, helping out. If you paid a little attention, you would notice that he walked much faster than a normal person.

"Good evening, Chuan. Do you mind if I mooch dinner at your place?"

When Pietro saw Li Chuan return, he waved to him warmly.

Li Chuan smiled:

"Of course, you're welcome anytime!"

"Honey, change your clothes first, we'll be done soon."

Upon noticing Li Chuan's return, Wanda happily ran over with a spoon in hand and gave him a kiss before immediately turning back to the kitchen.

Pietro, who was peeling onions over there, saw this and immediately showed an expression that was both sad and relieved.

Sadly, the two of them were showing off their love in front of him, a single guy, but comfortingly, his sister had found her own happiness.

He was initially against his sister dating Li Chuan, as Li Chuan had a bad reputation, and he worried that his sister would be deceived and hurt in the end.

But after getting to know them, I found that some of the rumors were really not to be believed.

"I'll help too!"

After changing into his pajamas, Li Chuan naturally joined the ranks of those helping in the kitchen.

Ultimately, he wasn't the spoiled rich kid who indulged in drinking, gambling, and womanizing from a young age. Born into poverty, he became a disciple of a master and went abroad to fight for his life to repay his master's kindness.

Li Chuan's past life experiences were never about being high and mighty.

Perhaps in front of his subordinates and enemies, he was dignified and ruthless, capable of crushing a person without batting an eye, making him seem terrifying.

But in fact, he was not a bloodthirsty person, and he never killed innocent people indiscriminately.

So when there is no danger, he is still the same ordinary person from his previous life who likes to practice martial arts, eat, clean, and swim and fish in the river with his fellow disciples.

This is why Wanda, Pietro, and the company's regular employees all feel that President Li Chuan has a very good temper and is easy to get along with.

Chatting and laughing like this, all the prepared dishes were soon served.

"Wait a minute, it's still a little short."

As the three of them sat down at the table to eat, Wanda suddenly stood up again.

Li Chuan and Pietro exchanged a glance and said at the same time:

"The Dick Van Dyck Show"

"The Dick Van Dyke Show" is a sitcom and Wanda's favorite TV show.

Before Wanda and Pietro's parents died, the family lived in poverty, with the father supporting them by selling DVDs.

Every evening at dinner, the family would sit together and watch the "Dick Van Dyke Show" DVDs that their father had kept at the bottom of a trunk, unwilling to sell them, and had reserved especially for them.

"Correct answer, you'll each receive a grilled sausage as a reward!"

Wanda forked a sausage for Li Chuan and Pietro, then picked up the remote and turned on the TV, putting on a funny sitcom.

In typical high society, watching TV while eating would certainly be unacceptable and considered rude behavior due to a lack of table manners.

But Li Chuan never cared about these things. In his previous life, he liked to squat in the yard with his fellow disciples, holding bowls, and watch TV. He did the same when he was alone abroad. Moreover, sitcoms were the best thing to watch while eating.

Perhaps it was precisely because of Li Chuan's very down-to-earth behavior and habits that Wanda truly let down her guard and fell in love with him.

Otherwise, money and flattery alone can only seduce materialistic women who crave vanity and wealth, but cannot make Wanda, whose heart is filled with hatred, let go of her hatred and fall in love with him.

Completing the system's main quests isn't difficult, but reaching the advanced level and securing the best rewards is far from easy.

Without genuine feelings exchanged for genuine feelings, you can't reach the stage of marriage.

"By the way, Wanda, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

Halfway through dinner, Li Chuan suddenly spoke up.

"What's wrong, darling?"

Wanda giggled, looked away from the television, and turned to look at Li Chuan.

Li Chuan feigned a cough, then slowly said:

"That's right, Wanda. Currently, the company's business in Sokovia has reached a point where there is no room for further progress. I want to expand into the United States and increase the company's operations."

So, we might have to settle in New York for a while.

"Does it really have to be to go to the United States?"

Wanda, who had been laughing at the TV, suddenly frowned and looked troubled.

"I knew it wouldn't be that simple."

Looking at Wanda's expression, Li Chuan sighed inwardly.

The difficulty of the tasks given on the panel is usually linked to the rewards, and being able to enter the small world for six months is clearly not a reward given casually.

So, taking Wanda to settle in New York is not as easy as it seems.

In fact, Li Chuan preferred missions like the previous extermination of Hydra, because those were actually the missions he was best at.

He knew why Wanda didn't want to settle in the United States: she hated the country, especially New York, where Stark Industries' headquarters were located.

Wanda's parents were killed by a missile created by Stark. Because of her latent magical abilities, she modified the probability of the missile's explosion, preventing a second missile from exploding in front of her and Pietro.

"If you don't want to go, then you don't have to. Anyway, I have a private jet, so I can fly back and forth whenever I need to, just like driving to and from get off work."

Originally, Li Chuan wanted to use Wanda and Pizarro's hatred for Stark Industries to persuade Wanda to go to New York with him. He had already thought of the general outline of his story before entering the room.

But when he saw Wanda's expression, he couldn't help but change his mind.

Although his goal was to become stronger quickly and have enough ability to protect Wanda, if he resorts to any means necessary, then he has already deviated from his original intention.

Side quests are always available, and there will always be quests that reward small world time.

And as he just mentioned, one can travel between New York and Sokovia by private jet, it's just a bit of a hassle.

Today, he might use underhanded means to get Wanda to go to New York with him because he wants to become stronger. If the future panel issues a mission for him to kill Wanda and he can get rewards beyond his imagination, would he also choose to sacrifice Wanda?

If everything is just about becoming stronger, then what's the point of becoming the strongest?

At that moment, Li Chuan suddenly felt a sense of relief.

"Yes, that's decided. Let's eat!"

"No, I think I should settle down in New York. I think it might not be as bad as I think."

However, just as Li Chuan finished mentally preparing himself and decided to give up on that side quest, Wanda suddenly looked at him, relaxed her brows, and smiled, changing her mind.

"Wanda, you?"

Li Chuan looked completely bewildered, because he couldn't understand why Wanda would suddenly change her mind.
