"The police are happy. All the money must be donated to do good deeds, or else you'll understand," Lin Chen said.
"What? That's unfair! There's still a 10,000-yuan jar… at least give me 5 million!" Catwoman protested, hope in her eyes.
"Forget it. I'm going to Poison Ivy to load the car. I'm sure she'll help me for free," Lin Chen replied, planning the next step.
"Hmph! I knew you had an affair with her! You owe me a million, no less!" Catwoman pouted, clearly annoyed.
"Okay," Lin Chen said, smiling.
Catwoman's mood immediately brightened. The money was coming in fast, and just like that, a million yuan was in hand. What she didn't know was that Lin Chen had just spoken a few words and earned much more than that.
Seeing Lin Chen hang up, the Penguin commented enviously, "Master, Catwoman is great, and Poison Ivy isn't bad either. I really envy you."
Lin Chen chuckled. "General, general."
Penguin quickly ordered Victor to get things moving, and soon he and Lin Chen were already on friendly terms.
Lin Chen held the Penguin's black umbrella. "Brother, I heard this thing has lots of gadgets—guns, swords, lasers, flamethrowers, even poisonous gas?"
The Penguin laughed. "Of course. You really can't hide anything from the Taoist priest. I'm impressed."
Just then, a melodious female voice screamed:
"Help! What are you doing?!"
Lin Chen turned his head to see a stunning red-haired woman—the Black Widow—bursting into his shop in a panic. Her delicate appearance and flawless figure made her look almost untouchable.
Natasha Romanoff was gasping, her lips trembling wildly with emotion.
Penguin's men stared in astonishment at the sudden appearance of this incredible woman.
Trailing behind her were a few gangsters with fierce faces and gold chains around their necks. Among them, Hawkeye was pretending to be one of the thugs.
Lin Chen shook his head, secretly amused. "Ah, so this is S.H.I.E.L.D., trying to entangle me. Very good. Lose your sister, lose your army—it's your choice!"
Hawkeye shouted, "You little brat! You owe money and want to run? I'll catch you and sell you today!"
The Widow Sister looked terrified, her performance Oscar-worthy: tears streaming, a mix of remorse, fear, and desperation. "No! Give me time! I'll make money to pay you back!"
"You'll pay it back? That's 100,000 USD!" Hawkeye tried to grab her.
"I… I didn't know I'd end up a maid and have to pay back the money!" she wailed.
"Maid?!" The Penguin's eyes lit up, imagining such a beauty as his maid. He almost couldn't resist.
"100,000! I've got it! Beautiful woman, come to my brother!" he said slyly, eyeing the Widow Sister.
The Widow Sister glanced at him, hugged Lin Chen (who was watching the entire scene unfold), and cursed in her mind: I don't want to spend 100,000 yuan on this old man's greed and lust. This guy must be blind.
She almost felt disgusted at the sight of the Penguin. The stinky Taoist can't save himself; he can only save me!
She ran a few steps toward Harley Quinn, who was eager to help. "Miss! They're going to sell me to a nightclub, hundreds of people a day!"
Harley, feeling sympathy, helped the Widow Sister up. "Don't worry, I'll help you!"
Lin Chen muttered dryly, "Hundreds of times a day, 20 hours? That's four per hour, including bath time? Dare to love these people…"
The Widow Sister's eyelids twitched as she hugged Harley and began to cry pitifully.
The Penguin's heart softened. "Come to my brother, I'm a good guy."
The Widow Sister cried even louder.
Harley Quinn couldn't bear it, so she handed over a card to Lin Chen for payment.
Lin Chen took the card and said to the Penguin, "Brother, I don't like that gang. Deal with them."
The Penguin understood immediately: the Taoist priest's money would never be spent, so he could consider it a windfall. He shouted to his men:
"Break up this group of scumbags!"
Dozens of thugs rushed toward Hawkeye. He had no choice but to duck and flee, taking his men with him, getting kicked along the way. He cursed in his heart: Xiao Na, this is your doing!
Lin Chen scolded Harley Quinn, "Women really can't manage money—it's too easy to deceive you. Your gold card has been confiscated!"
Harley almost cried. How am I supposed to go shopping now?
Using her charm, she wrapped her arms around Lin Chen's neck, pouting. "Wuwuwu, the Taoist priest is wrong."
After a few minutes of playful theatrics, Lin Chen returned the gold card. "No next time, understood?"
The Widow Sister eyed the gold card jealously. After all, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s salary wasn't high.
The Penguin said goodbye but couldn't resist glancing back at her stunning figure a few more times.
"Why didn't I get such luck?" he muttered.
Lin Chen sat down. "Okay, Natalie, tell your story."
Harley Quinn was shocked. "Master! How do you know her name?"
"In the morning, I found her purse. That's all," Lin Chen replied casually.
The Widow Sister rolled her eyes. Is that picking up or stealing? she thought.
As soon as she sat, she made a pitiful expression. Even as a top-level spy, her emotions were easy to read.
Lin Chen shook his head. Her life depends entirely on her acting skills.
Sister Widow began, "I came to Milliken from Goose Country and just finished university. Who knew finding a job in the U.S. would be so hard? I was unemployed, fell into debt, and got collected by the underworld… you're still expecting me to send money home…"
Harley Quinn almost cried, completely absorbed by the Widow Sister's tale.
Lin Chen frowned. "Ignore your sob story. You're 23? That's not old. No one's that old after college."
The Widow Sister's jaw dropped. "You actually said I'm old?! I'm twenty-three!"
"Fine, I believe you. What do you want to do in the future?"
"I want to find a job and repay my debt slowly," she said timidly.
"Your major?"
"Professional."
Lin Chen scanned her. "With your qualifications, it shouldn't be hard to find a job," he said, noting she was slightly chubby.
She adjusted her emotions and said delicately, "Those rich people aren't pure in their minds. I have a job in charge, but they always try to harass me. It's really hard for a single beautiful woman… I'm guilty of Huai Mei!"
Harley Quinn found a confidant. "Natalie, you're right! Those men's eyes are always on us!"
The two shared a look of understanding, like comrades-in-arms.
Harley turned to Lin Chen. "Daoist, your dream villa is almost ready. Let Natalie take care of you."
Lin Chen shook his head. "I'm not a big family portrait. She doesn't need to."
The Widow Sister looked aggrieved. "Mr. Lin, salary doesn't matter. I just want a safe place to live. Gotham is too dangerous. Can I work other positions?"
