"..." Bai Ye looked at her with a squinting eye: "Look at what you have accomplished."

"What's wrong?" Michaela said, "This is already a very extravagant idea for me, right? After all, I only earn a few dollars working in a car repair shop, and a sports car is so expensive?"

"How is a sports car expensive? It has been the same price for so many years." Bai Ye said, "Sometimes you should look for your own reasons. Has your salary increased over the years? Have you worked hard?"

"..." Michaela rolled her eyes and said, "If hard work can make money, then the richest people in the world should be farmers and construction workers, right?"

Is it your turn, a capitalist young master who makes money by eating, drinking and having fun all day?

"In fact? They are the poorest and most miserable people!"

"Maybe you don't know that some people are unemployed and worry about their daily meals, some people spend all their money to buy a house but it is still unfinished, some people have to insist on 996 despite a pay cut, many people are poor and have to budget their lives. Sports cars are not expensive... Do you know that some people think fast food is too expensive and say they can't afford it even if it costs about 10 dollars? You don't know, because in your logic, being poor is because you don't work hard, so you deserve it?"

She felt that Bai Ye was not a particularly bad person. He was many times better than her ex-boyfriend Cui En, but... he seemed a little ignorant of the sufferings of the world.

"Okay, I think what you said makes sense." Bai Ye touched his chin, nodded, and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's continue talking about you. Since you like cars so much, have you ever thought about joining the Avengers? In the future, Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and others will join the Avengers. After all, their identities are too special. They are aliens that ordinary humans cannot trust at all. Only by wearing the cloak of the Avengers can they have the qualifications to act legally on Earth. And compared to sports cars, who can compare with Bumblebee and others?"

"Me? To the Avengers?"

Michaela pointed at herself in shock:

"Master, are you sure? I'm just an ordinary person."

"Who says that ordinary people can't join the Avengers? The Avengers is a league of heroes that is ready to control the global super-energy crisis. In addition to combat personnel, logistical workers are definitely indispensable." Bai Ye said: "It just so happens that I am in need of a secretary to help me manage some of the league's regular affairs that I should have done."

The routine work of the Avengers is now mainly presided over by Black Widow Natasha as Tony's secretary. Bai Ye didn't care much about it before, but when Captain America joined the Avengers, he felt that it was time to weaken some of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s influence in the Avengers. Otherwise, Black Widow, Captain America, Nova, White Tiger and others would be connected together and really form separatist forces within the Avengers.

Letting Michaela be Bai Ye's secretary and taking away some of the routine work from Black Widow Natasha can also be regarded as a warning to the powerful forces in SHIELD not to jump too much!

Coincidentally.

Michaela is also the cousin of April. In the past, the two of them were not doing well. One was a soap news host and the other was a car repair shop employee. Of course, their relationship was not very useful. But when two people, one was in charge of the routine work of the Watchers Alliance and the other was in charge of part of the routine work of the Avengers Alliance...

The effect of the relationship between two people is enormous.

It is entirely possible to create an effect where one plus one is greater than one hundred.

Of course, another secondary reason was that Bai Ye couldn't bear to part with the beautiful sisters Michaela and April, and wanted to keep them by his side for his own enjoyment.

"Can I really do this?" After Michaela realized what was happening, she was surprised and delighted. "Master, you are not kidding me, are you?"

With her precocity, she certainly knew that if she could become Bai Ye's secretary and help him manage part of the Avengers' work, she would have a bright future. Even if she resigned from Bai Ye and found a Fortune 500 company, the other party would definitely be willing to give her a senior executive position.

Many of the most powerful people actually started out as secretaries of another big shot.

Just like Li Dakang, Liu Xinjian, Chen Qingquan...

Bai Ye smiled faintly. It seemed that in the future, he would be able to work as a secretary when he had something to do and work as a secretary when he had nothing to do.

He said, "If you're willing, you can go to Columbia to study for an MBA and work as my secretary. Of course, we still have to keep a certain distance in public and not let people gossip about us... You know. In private, we should still do what we should do."

"I understand, I understand!" Michaela nodded fiercely: "I will definitely do my job as a secretary well in the future, and I will never let you lose face in front of outsiders."

"It seems you really understand."

Bai Ye nodded with relief.

Talking to a precocious girl saves a lot of time.

If it were Mary Jane and the others, they would definitely not understand what he was saying.

"The Columbia MBA is mainly for gilding the coin. You don't need to care too much about it. You should focus on practical work." Bai Ye said, "But in the alliance, you have an opponent named Natasha. She is not an easy person to deal with. Be careful not to be bullied by her and cry."

Getting an MBA is mainly a process of training Michaela and making her sensible...

At least you need to have good eyesight...

Know what to do and what not to do.

Before she learned these things and became an outstanding business socialite, Bai Ye would definitely not allow her to meet Gwen - a real business socialite, like Li Huanggua's wrinkled Kaixuan, Ma Yun's Xiaoyanzi, Su Mang sitting on Lao Pan's lap...

"Absolutely not!" Michaela said firmly, "Master, you underestimated the tenacity of a girl who grew up like a weed in the grassroots. Except for her shooting at me directly, she couldn't overwhelm me in other situations even if she had the absolute upper hand."

"That's good. Come on. Hard work is more important than anything else. Michaela, as long as you are willing to work hard, I believe you can do it."

In the next few days, Michaela couldn't wait to follow Bai Ye to New York to study for an MBA at Columbia University, and to take on the position of Bai Ye's secretary and serve as the Avengers' affairs officer. However, she didn't expect that Bai Ye seemed to stay in Los Angeles and stayed here for a long time.

"Master, you've already told me that Tony Stark has urged you several times. There are still many Transformers matters that need you to go back and deal with! How long are you going to play in Los Angeles?"

Michaela was about to collapse.

"Don't be anxious."

Bai Ye was still leisurely. He had finally come to Los Angeles, so he must make arrangements first. In addition to Cindy Crawford, there were also Ikana, Tangtang, Vanessa and others. Wouldn't Bai Ye have to feed them one by one?

Dayu controlled the floods and passed through his house three times without entering.

Who understands his spirit of working tirelessly to clear the flood?

"Master, didn't you tell me that hard work is more important than anything else?" Michaela said resentfully, "Look at you now, do you look like you are working hard?"

Bai Ye said confidently: "Yes, hard work the day after tomorrow is more important than anything else, so take a rest today and tomorrow, and work hard the day after tomorrow."

Chapter 241: If you can’t have money, what’s the point of being rich?

Four Seasons Hotel, Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.

A gorgeous yet understated urban oasis that has long been a favorite of Hollywood stars.

Inside the hotel suite.

Vanessa covered her plump body with a thin white sheet. The sweat on her forehead wet her hair. She rested her head on Bai Ye's chest until her breathing became steady.

"Master!"

She stretched out her hand and stroked Bai Ye's eight muscles on his abdomen that looked like they were made of rocks, and murmured in fascination:

"How did you do it to make me so crazy about you? Did you cast some kind of magic on me?"

"I don't have any magic." Bai Ye smiled and slapped Vanessa, causing her hips to sway. He said, "You can't control yourself, so you blame me?"

"There is definitely no magic, it's just that I have some special skills."

Bai Ye smiled proudly.

Vanessa gave Bai Ye a charming look:

"I know you have amazing talents, but you don't have to show off like this, right? I wanted to be a good wife and mother, but in the end...if not you, who should I blame?"

"Of course you are to blame!" Bai Ye lifted Vanessa's chin, kissed her pink lips, and said, "It's because you are too beautiful that I am trapped in this mess and cannot extricate myself!"

“Haha!” Vanessa laughed and said, “You just know how to say nice things to coax me!”

At this time, Vanessa couldn't help but think of the Black Mamba at home. He was a straight man who didn't understand women's minds. Or, before they got married, he was quite romantic, but after they got married, the seven-year itch gradually made him lose his passion.

He could be out having fun everywhere, so he had no time to care about this annoying old woman. However, Bai Ye, as the son of a wealthy tycoon, was willing to lower himself to make her happy. This was the difference.

"What do you think about me divorcing him?"

Vanessa said for no reason:

"Anyway, he and I have been married for so many years, and we have a lot of joint property. Once we get divorced, I won't have to worry about my life in the second half of my life."

"No! Never!"

Bai Ye was startled and quickly reached out to stop him.

"Why are you so panicked?" Vanessa rolled her eyes at Bai Ye and said, "I didn't say I was going to ask you to take over. I live on my own and can do whatever I want in the future. I don't have to be sneaky when I come to you. It's one less shackle, isn't it?"

"That was not what I meant."

Bai Ye was helpless and whispered something in Vanessa's ear.

"Huh~~"

Vanessa looked at Bai Ye as if he were trash. After a moment, she said, "Okay, for your sake, I will continue to tolerate him for a while."

If it weren’t for the fact that you like married women, I wouldn’t continue to call him my husband!

……

"Is this New York?" Michaela followed Bai Ye to New York. She looked around curiously: "Compared to Los Angeles, it seems more prosperous, and the pedestrians are more hurried. It doesn't have the leisurely feeling of Los Angeles."

After comforting Vanessa, Ikana, Tangtang and others, Bai Ye set off back to New York. He had no choice but to go back because the Avengers suddenly had more Autobots joining them, and there were many things to do.

"Of course." Bai Ye drove the car and took Michaela to visit Manhattan. He said, "New York is like this. It is the core area of ​​world finance and the world trade center. It has a strong business atmosphere and is full of luxury. Los Angeles has a developed beach culture, down-to-earth food, beautiful sunshine that no one can complain about, and so on. It has a strong atmosphere of life."

"People who have been in New York for a long time will probably think Los Angeles is better, and people who have been in Los Angeles for a long time will probably think New York is better. It's like a besieged city, people outside want to get in, and people inside want to get out. People all yearn for things they can't have."

New York and Los Angeles are the first and second largest cities in the United States. One is a traditional economic and financial center on the east coast of the United States, and the other is an entertainment capital on the west coast of the United States, famous for its sunshine, beaches and Hollywood. Anyone who has experienced both cities knows that the styles of the two cities are really very different!

It also represents the style characteristics of the east and west coasts of America: the east coast is more traditional and formal, while the west coast is more relaxed and casual.

After a quick stroll around Manhattan, Bai Ye took Michaela to the Avengers Building - well, before that, he had already gathered intelligence that Gwen was not there.

Bai Ye drove the car and went straight into the Avengers Building.

Natasha had already come to greet them with Optimus Prime and others.

"How's it going Optimus Prime? Are you used to being here?"

Bai Ye took Michaela out of the car and asked with a smile to Optimus Prime, who was over eight meters tall.

"The friends here are all very friendly." Optimus Prime was very satisfied with the atmosphere of the Avengers and said, "There is just one thing... the height of this building is too small!"

With Optimus Prime's height, it was obviously impossible for him to enter the main building of the Avengers Tower.

"Haha." Bai Ye laughed and said, "This is just a small matter. When Tony and I were choosing a site for the Avengers, we anticipated this situation, so we bought almost all the surrounding land. Then let Natasha find an engineering team to build a building for you that is suitable for Autobots to live in, right next to the Avengers Building."

"Thank you very much." Optimus Prime was not polite.

These days, he, Jazz, Ironhide and the others have been living in the warehouse for several days... They have led the Autobots and Decepticons in battle for so long, shouldn't they be able to enjoy themselves?

They just want some real estate of their own.

Moreover, Optimus Prime is ready to call on the Autobots in the universe to come to Earth to settle down. Then the number of Autobots on Earth will increase, and a base for the Autobots to live in is also indispensable.

"Natasha, is everything okay?"

Bai Ye looked at the woman with long burgundy hair.

"Of course, no problem, Mr. Osborne," she replied gracefully with a smile, "The funds on the Alliance's books are very sufficient at the moment."

SHIELD is also very interested in the Autobots. If the Autobots can be restricted to the Avengers and their direct contact with society can be reduced, it will be a good thing for SHIELD. In the future, there will be plenty of opportunities to slowly study the Transformers race.

Bai Ye nodded: "That's good."

Bumblebee also transformed into a robot form and greeted Ironhide, Jazz and the others.

Among the crowd that had been attracted by the noise, Xin Xing asked curiously, "Master Bai Ye, is this beautiful girl next to you your girlfriend?"

"No!" Bai Ye said calmly, "Her name is Michaela, and she is a good friend that Bumblebee made in Los Angeles. Michaela had never been to New York before and was curious about it. Bumblebee was kind-hearted, so he insisted on inviting Michaela to visit his workplace, thus fulfilling Michaela's dream of New York."

"what?"

Bumblebee pointed at himself in confusion.

"Yes! I'm Bumblebee's good friend, Michaela. I grew up in Los Angeles and have never been to New York, so..." Michaela smiled brightly and gave Bumblebee a thumbs up: "Anyway, thank you, Bumblebee!"

——On the way here, Bai Ye had already CPUed Michaela and told her not to reveal the relationship between them casually, so as to avoid people thinking that she was a relative. It would be best if she could serve as the CEO assistant of the Avengers in a legitimate manner.

Bumblebee: “…”

She slandered me!

They are all slandering me!

You are just talking nonsense - it's groundless!

But Bumblebee didn't dare to say anything or ask anything. After all, Bai Ye was a tough guy who killed Megatron with his bare hands. Even if he used a trick, he was much more powerful than him. So Bumblebee could only hide in the corner and draw circles.

White Tiger Ayala looked at Michaela, but his face was puzzled: "Why do I feel like, Miss Michaela, I seem to have seen you somewhere before?"

"Ah?" Michaela asked in confusion, "I have never left Los Angeles. Did we meet when you came to Los Angeles for tourism, young lady?"

"No."

Ayala shook his head.

Luke Cage said, "I think Ayala, you mean this lady Michaela looks like the CEO of Overwatch, April?"

"Ah, yes, yes."

Ayala's eyes lit up and he said:

"I was wondering why Miss Michaela looks so familiar. She looks at least 50% similar to the CEO of Overwatch, except that Miss Michaela is a little more immature while she is more mature."
