I'll tell Kila later and have her arrange it for you," Su Zhan paused, then said, "It's getting late, you should rest early. We can talk more tomorrow."
Li Xiaolu nodded, and Su Zhan turned and left the room.
Back in his own room, Su Zhan lay down but had no intention of sleeping.
Clearly, Li Xiaolu didn't love him yet, or rather, had no deep feelings for him, which was normal. After all, their time together had been very short; if not for what had happened, Li Xiaolu probably wouldn't have made such a choice.
But it didn't matter. This was already much better than he had imagined. At least… she accepted this fact and wasn't rejecting him, right?
As for the rest, he would leave it to time.
The next morning, Su Zhan informed Kila, who had already restored Li Xiaolu's freedom. He then handed the formula to the Base's scientists for research and testing.
Su Zhan accompanied Li Xiaolu as they walked around the Base. Although they didn't talk much, the atmosphere was still good, especially with Su Zhan's initiative, which kept Li Xiaolu from feeling too awkward or helpless, allowing them to naturally become more familiar. Su Zhan asked about her childhood and chatted about interesting things, and Li Xiaolu gradually opened up.
Perhaps, this was the benefit of getting on the boat first and buying the ticket later.
Having done the most intimate things, their mindset was naturally different.
"It's a success, Master, it's a success!"
Kila ran over excitedly, shouting at Su Zhan.
"The formula is a success?"
"Yes, after testing and experimentation, it can now be formulated into a potion for each Ability type individually. The success rate has reached one hundred percent! We tried it on ten people who each chose an Ability, and all were successful!"
"Excellent! Immediately have them prepare five bottles of each Ability type potion and bring them to me," Su Zhan said, equally excited.
Although the effect of this Ability potion wasn't too strong yet, many auxiliary Abilities were still quite useful. Simmons was truly amazing; she had only been exposed to this potion for a short time and already made such a significant breakthrough. It seemed he could entrust R to her.
If R was successfully researched, he would be able to mass-produce super-powered individuals.
In less than a day, the potions were ready. Su Zhan hadn't planned to stay here long anyway, so since the potions were ready, he prepared to leave.
After bidding farewell to Kila and Li Xiaolu, Su Zhan directly exited the instance.
It wasn't that he didn't want to stay longer, but he still had many things to do. As for a place of gentle comfort, he would have plenty of time to enjoy it later.
When he returned, it was also evening.
Su Zhan left his room and went directly to Simmons's room. He stood at the door and knocked gently. A moment later, the door opened, and Simmons, dressed in pajamas, appeared before him.
"You… you're back? Where have you been these past few days? Why did you suddenly disappear?" Simmons asked in surprise.
"That's not important!"
Su Zhan said, then directly entered Simmons's room and casually closed the door. Just as Simmons was about to speak, Su Zhan turned around and hugged her tightly.
This sudden embrace made Simmons a little bewildered.
"You… what's wrong?" Simmons asked, confused.
"Nothing, just a little excited. Simmons, you're truly amazing." Releasing Simmons, Su Zhan excitedly pulled her to the bed, then with a wave of his hand, various potions appeared.
"These are… Ability potions? Why are there so many?" Simmons recognized them.
"Your research was successful. It's now confirmed that the success rate has reached one hundred percent, and there are no dangers whatsoever. Now, choose one!"
"Let me choose?" Simmons asked, surprised.
"Yes, you did such a great job, of course you deserve a reward. You know all the types of Abilities, right? Pick one," Su Zhan said with a smile.
"Then, I'll choose Telekinesis," Simmons thought for a moment and said.
Su Zhan quickly found the potion and handed it to Simmons, then put the others away.
"Why choose this one? I thought you'd choose the Ability of precognition?" Su Zhan asked with some curiosity.
"Because this helps with my experiments. After all, many times, even with machines, it's not that convenient, but if I can have Telekinesis, it will be much easier. While precognition is also good, I'm not a field Agent, and it wouldn't be of much help to my profession," Simmons explained.
"Can I use this Ability potion later? I'm still a bit excited right now; I didn't expect it to actually succeed," Simmons asked Su Zhan.
"Of course you can!" Su Zhan said with a smile, "Actually, I'm also very excited, so… how about we calm each other's excitement?"
"How… how do we calm down?" Simmons was a bit curious, but very quickly, Su Zhan answered her with his actions.
Su Zhan put one arm around Simmons's waist and the other on her neck, gently pulling her closer, then directly kissed her.
"Mm-hmm~"
Simmons hummed, instinctively wanting to push Su Zhan away, but very quickly… her movements became weaker and weaker, and finally, she actively hugged Su Zhan.
After a long, long time, the two separated.
Simmons looked at Su Zhan: "I feel like… I'm even more excited now."
"Me too!" Su Zhan said with burning eyes.
Simmons could meet his gaze at first, but quickly gave in, lowering her head and saying, "I think I need to do something to calm down. Didn't you say before that you had an evolved potion? You can give it to me; perhaps… I can research how to make this potion more stable."
"I would have given it to you even if you didn't ask!" Su Zhan said with a smile, taking out R and handing it to Simmons. "This is the only bottle. I hope you won't disappoint me."
"I'll do my best!" Simmons nodded.
Chapter 0113 Super Black Widow
Although Simmons said she needed to find something to calm down, it was impossible for her to research potions in the middle of the night. It was just a way to change the subject and cool down the atmosphere. After all, if the atmosphere just now didn't cool down, who knows what might have happened, and Simmons was clearly not ready, especially… with Skye in a room not far from hers.
Although Su Zhan was a little reluctant, he didn't continue.
After saying goodnight, he returned to his room, still savoring the taste on his lips.
By giving Simmons the Telekinesis Ability, her safety was also ensured. After all, the Telekinesis Ability was very strong, something Su Zhan himself deeply understood. Moreover, although Simmons was also an Agent, she was an internal researcher and would basically not encounter danger.
As for Skye, Su Zhan did not give her an Ability potion.
Although she hadn't awakened yet, her Ability after awakening would be very strong. Before awakening, she wouldn't encounter any danger, and giving her an Ability potion rashly might cause other reactions. However, Natasha, Su Zhan felt, needed it more.
The mornings in New York were particularly busy, with people rushing about with coffee in hand everywhere. This was a city with a very fast pace of life, where one not only had to face the hardships of work and life but also crises from time to time. One could say that everyone possessed a big heart!
In a newly opened coffee shop on the street, Su Zhan sat by the window. Two cups of coffee were on the table; clearly, he was waiting for someone.
"Ding-dong"
The bell hanging on the door jingled as the door was pushed open and a beautiful woman walked in. The woman looked around, spotted Su Zhan, and walked over with a smile.
"Have you been waiting long?" Natasha sat down and asked Su Zhan.
