Ye Qingyang did not come from the perspective of a person who had experienced this. He came to this conclusion based on the combination of countless superhero movies.
"It's not that I don't support him doing chivalry, but there must be a prerequisite for this, that is, the person who does chivalry must be strong enough, not only in terms of ability, but more importantly, in terms of heart, family, etc. The quality is so strong that I don’t allow people in my team to bleed and cry. If that’s the only way to be a hero, I choose to give up.”
Ethan said nothing, but the white sand smoke in his hand was slowly turning into ashes at a speed visible to the naked eye.
For a long time, he exhaled a long breath of green smoke
"But this is Peter's own choice. He is already an adult. Should we respect his choice?"
"Well said, he is an adult, and his choice should be respected. Do you know that he has a seventy-year-old uncle and aunt in his family? He is not an orphan, he has a family, although his parents have been with him since he was a child. He left him due to other force majeure reasons, but his uncle and aunt regarded him as their own."
Ye Qingyang said a little excitedly
"They don't have children of their own, and Peter is their son. Have you ever thought that if something happens to Peter, his uncle and aunt will send someone with white hair to someone with black hair. Isn't this the most tragic thing in the world? "
"When he becomes a hero, he must first be a human being!"
Ethan fell into silence. He suddenly thought, if it was his daughter who made the same decision as Peter Parker, would he still be able to speak openly
"I respect his decision?"
Just now, his daughter just showed her closeness to Ye Qingyang, and he was extremely worried.
You know, his daughter Anne is also 18 years old this year, and she is also an adult girl. In the past, she would have been married and had children, and she might have become a grandfather.
"But after all, we are not his parents. Even if we are his parents, we cannot be his master."
Ethan has a headache. He feels that educating children is more difficult than writing a thesis for his PhD promotion.
Teaching and educating people is easier said than done. Only when you become a parent do you realize the ups and downs involved.
"I don't care about others. Peter is now my employee, and he is considered mine. I have this responsibility and obligation to guide him. If he can't accept it, I can only choose to let him leave."
Ye Qingyang took a deep drag on the cigarette in his hand, and then pressed it firmly into the ashtray. The unburned half of the cigarette butt was still stubbornly smoking, just like the little spider who refused to admit defeat. .
Little Spider is not an indispensable hero on the earth. What Ye Qingyang needs is someone who can take the overall situation into consideration, obey orders, and enforce prohibitions.
Just like in the final battle with Thanos, Wakanda raised its arms and countless black people rushed towards Thanos' army with spears.
This is the person Ye Qingyang needs.
"Eat grapes!"
Annie came over cheering, holding a fruit plate in her hands.
Ye Qingyang and Ethan's moods improved a lot at the same time, as if a beam of warm sunshine had shone into the long and cold night.
"What's this?"
Ethan picked up a round, black fruit that looked like a peach.
"I don't know either. It seems that my mother bought these at a roadside fruit stall. The stall owner said they were imported fruits called Heibulin Big Plums."
After Annie finished speaking, she took a bunch of grapes and handed them to Ye Qingyang
"Uncle, eat grapes."
"Hehe, you're so good."
Ye Qingyang took the grapes smoothly, but his eyes couldn't help but drift to Annie's baby bear.
He couldn't help but think, this grape and that grape, which grape is saltier, oh no, sweeter
"Puff puff-"
Ethan took a bite of the delicious-looking black plum, and then he lost control of his expression and burst into tears.
"What's wrong, Dad, aren't these black plums sweet?"
Annie's eyes were originally on Ye Qingyang, but her father's expression was too exaggerated, so she quickly took a box of tissues and handed it over.
"Oh my god, it's so sour. I've never eaten anything so sour."
Ethan took the tissue, wiped away the tears caused by the acid, and then took a swig of soda water. The feeling that almost made his teeth sore was a little better.
"Is it really that sour?"
Annie curiously picked up a large black plum and took a bite of it without believing anything evil.
"Oh my god, I don't want to eat this -"
Just as Ethan was about to stop him, Annie had already bitten him.
“Bah, bah, bah—it’s so sour—”
All the facial features on Annie's face were squeezed together, and her two little tiger teeth were playfully exposed.
Ye Qingyang quickly handed over the half-drunk bottle of soda water.
"Dun dun dun dun—"
Annie took it and opened her mouth, wrapping her two thin lips around the mouth of the bottle and started drinking.
After taking several sips, Annie stopped. She glanced at the soda bottle in her hand, and then at Ye Qingyang. She suddenly understood something and her pretty face turned red.
"I'm going to see how mom's steak is cooking."
Ye Qingyang watched her two white calves swing rapidly, creating a gust of wind.
"This kid is always so reckless."
Ethan stood up, picked up the big black plums that Annie had thrown on the ground, and threw them into the trash can together with the contents of the fruit plate.
This family was more interesting than the last. Ye Qingyang shook his head, picked up the soda water that Annie had not finished, and took a sip.
Waste of water - shameful!
During dinner, Ye Qingyang sat on Ethan's right side, opposite the two beautiful mothers and daughters, Rose and Annie.
A few people also opened a bottle of red wine.
"Mr. Tony, let me toast you on behalf of our Ethan. Thank you for your concern and care for so long."
Rose stood up, raised her glass, and drank it down.
"Oh, sister-in-law, what you said is that I have just fulfilled my duty as a brother. Actually speaking, it is brother Ethan who helps me more. Let's have a drink together."
Ye Qingyang also stood up, but he didn't drink it immediately. Instead, he wanted to cast a wide net and drag the Ethan family to drink together.
"Yes, mom and uncle said that we are good brothers with dad, so let's not see each other outside. I also want to toast to uncle."
Annie picked up the wine glass and was about to toast, but Rose held her back.
"Why are you a girl drinking so much wine? Don't drink it all. You only have this glass of wine tonight."
"Dad, look at mom-"
Annie acted coquettishly at Ethan.
But how could Ethan, who had tracheitis, dare to talk to him? He was originally a taciturn man from science and engineering. He had the lowest status in the family. Similarly, there was only one person who occupied the commanding heights, and that was Rose.
