Pepper Potts nodded in thanks. "Actually, we've hired top mercenaries. Taoist Priest, you just need to pinpoint Tony's location."
Lin Chen understood. After all, they couldn't put all their faith in him.
Happy, however, didn't trust Lin Chen, figuring he was just a con artist.
He reached out and shook Lin Chen's hand, putting some force behind it, intending to show him who was boss.
"Nice to meet you, Taoist Priest!"
Lin Chen naturally had to reciprocate.
"Ouch!" Happy yelped.
Lin Chen released his hand. "Sorry, just a reflex!"
Happy stared at him. "You can fool Potts, but you can't fool me! I'm going to expose you!"
Lin Chen took a step forward. "Happy Hogan, Tony Stark's personal driver and head of security. Good driving skills, terrible fighting skills.
In the summer of his sixteenth year, he was tricked by a few girls and pushed into a pond, which led to him avoiding girls ever since, and he still hasn't found a partner."
Happy exclaimed, "How do you know!" This was his big secret; he hadn't told anyone, not even Tony.
"You don't even know what I do. Do you want me to bring up the fact that you wet the bed when you were ten?"
Happy's face darkened a little, and he muttered, "You already said it…"
"Oh, sorry about that," Lin Chen seemed to just remember.
"Haha!" Harley Quinn couldn't help but burst into laughter, her body shaking with mirth.
Pepper Potts smiled, "Taoist Priest, you're so humorous."
Pepper Potts immediately transferred a million dollars to Lin Chen. Happy Hogan didn't dare to say another word, afraid his little secrets would be exposed.
"Taoist Priest, our private jet takes off tonight. We have four hours."
Lin Chen said he still had something to do. He took a Stark Industries car and drove away with Harley Quinn.
Happy Hogan went to Pepper Potts, "Potts, can he really be trusted?"
"I've watched the Taoist Priest's live stream videos. He's definitely someone who hates evil. He won't lie to me. You're the one who should be worried. The Taoist Priest holds grudges and will make those who offend him suffer."
Happy Hogan remembered the feeling of being dominated, and shook his head fiercely, "I was the one who got played, alright?"
Lin Chen arrived at the Stock Exchange. Harley Quinn asked strangely, "Taoist Priest, what are we doing at the Stock Exchange?"
"Of course, I'm shorting the stock."
Lin Chen found a stockbroker and asked to short Stark Industries' stock with all of his assets, nearly one million three hundred and thirty thousand dollars.
The female stockbroker, in her early thirties, kindly reminded him, "Mr. Lin, Stark Industries has been performing well. Are you sure you want to short it?"
Lin Chen shook his head.
The stockbroker sighed in relief. Although she could earn some commission, she didn't want such a handsome young man to lose all his fortune. "Sigh, another Little Leek."
Lin Chen turned around, "Harley, do you have any money left?"
"I still have two thousand from Arkham Asylum's severance pay."
"Give it all to me."
"Okay," Harley agreed without hesitation.
Lin Chen said to the female stock broker, "I want to use a hundred times leverage! Short Stark Industries' stock!"
The female stock broker was startled. It was the first time she had seen a Little Leek so proactive and so crazy!
"Young people these days are something else! Playing so big?!"
"Sir, you've considered this carefully? With a hundred times leverage, if you lose, not only will you lose your million-plus, but you might owe even more."
"Really? I just found out, but it doesn't matter," Lin Chen said with a smile.
The female stock broker thought to herself, "This handsome guy is so good-looking, how can his brain not work..."
After Lin Chen finished all the procedures, he pulled Harley Quinn away.
"Lin, aren't we going to save Stark? Why are you shorting his company's stock?"
Harley Quinn was taken aback. "Could he already be dead? Are you borrowing money to make money, and then you'll pay Miss Potts back after the news is out?"
Lin Chen laughed. "That's a good idea, but you're wrong. Tony will be back safe and sound."
"If he comes back, how will the stock plummet?! Why?!"
Harley Quinn couldn't figure it out. Lin Chen, however, kept her in suspense, causing her to pout.
"Alright, you'll know in a few days."
The two of them found a high-end restaurant and had a meal, then returned to the airport.
A Boeing airplane was parked there, and some burly mercenaries began to board.
Pepper Potts beckoned to Lin Chen, then introduced him to Rhodey, "Taoist Priest, this is Rhodey, Tony's good friend, and he's in charge of this rescue operation."
Rhodey shook hands with Lin Chen, "Taoist Priest, I've watched your live stream, and I admire you, but I hope you'll follow orders."
"No problem," Lin Chen nodded at War Machine. He was getting paid; there was no need to compete for leadership.
Lin Chen boarded the plane, and he and Harley Quinn were assigned to business class.
There were already a few people sitting in business class.
"Ooh, ooh, beautiful lady, may I get to know you?" A man in a red suit, wearing a red eye mask, said with a smile to Harley Quinn.
"No, because I already have a boyfriend," Harley Quinn wrapped her arm around Lin Chen's, looking happy.
Lin Chen recognized the man in front of him; it was Marvel's most talkative hero, Deadpool.
Deadpool stared at Lin Chen. "I know you. You're that fortune-telling pretty boy."
Lin Chen chuckled. "You're definitely jealous of my looks. I bet the face under that mask is a disaster."
"You!" Deadpool exploded.
Lin Chen added, "You have a hot wife, but your face makes you… unable to perform!"
