Qi Jun rolled his eyes speechlessly, but he saw Tony Stark cleaning up the debris from the large hole in his chest.
He shook his head, no longer paying attention, and never thought of restoring that large hole.
Some things can be exposed, but others must remain hidden.
Moreover, leaving that hole would make Tony Stark remember his power even more!
Otherwise, would Tony Stark really think that everything Qi Jun did was just for fun and whim?
... "Can you tell me, what exactly is your identity?"
At this moment, Tony Stark naturally no longer believed the unremarkable information Jarvis had found.
"I really am just an ordinary person!"
Qi Jun glanced at Tony Stark and found that the guy had slowly walked back to his side.
Is this guy's heart really that big?
"If that incident hadn't happened!"
Looking at the much younger Tony Stark in front of him, the image of the older Tony Stark, who ultimately died in Pepper's arms, seemed to reappear.
For a moment, Qi Jun's expression was very complex, a mix of homage, lament, nostalgia, blessing, resentment, indifference, and more.
Tony Stark had never imagined that a person's expression could change so quickly and so miraculously.
"I knew it!" he muttered to himself.
Tony Stark made a mental note of this, preparing to try and get more information from Qi Jun if the opportunity arose.
Of course, Tony Stark was overthinking it!
From the moment Qi Jun realized he had transmigrated, he decided to suppress this matter, keep it buried in his heart, and never tell anyone!
Not even his descendants! He would never reveal this secret!
"The past is over, there's no turning back, and I can't turn back! I won't turn back!"
Qi Jun concluded.
A new world has its own new wonders!
... "Then can you tell me about my father?"
"How much do you know about my father?"
Tony Stark took a deep breath, but found that his emotions still wouldn't calm down.
Looking at Tony Stark's expression, Qi Jun knew what the guy was struggling with.
However, Qi Jun didn't want to console him; he never meddled in matters of emotion, because they were the business of the people involved. No matter how clearly he saw things, it was irrelevant to them!
"For certain reasons."
"I know a lot of things, about Earth, about this universe!"
Qi Jun stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the starry sky at an angle (the sun had already set, and night had fallen).
Tony Stark was surprised to find that he actually saw a hint of something called 'sedimentation' and 'profundity' in Qi Jun?
What the hell?
He's not even as old as I am!
But clearly, Tony Stark didn't know that Qi Jun was acting—oh, no, that's not right, he was embodying the Doctrine of the Mean!
At the same time, Qi Jun was also laying a trap: if he was asked later, "How do you know so much?"
"For certain reasons, I know a lot of things, but I can't tell you what those reasons are, because I can't say!"
Perfect!
... "Your father..."
"I'll just briefly talk about what I know."
"An absolute super genius!"
"If it weren't for the limitations of the era and his assassination, perhaps it wouldn't even have been your turn to shine!"
Glancing at Tony Stark with a mischievous smile, Qi Jun directly revealed a piece of hidden history.
"What do you mean 'super genius,' and 'it wouldn't have been my turn?'"
"I'm better than him... Wait!"
Whoosh!
Tony Stark, wearing his Mark suit, rushed to Qi Jun with a horrified expression, staring intently at Qi Jun's face, as if trying to see if Qi Jun was joking!
"You..."
"Are you saying..."
Tony Stark definitely didn't realize that his voice was trembling.
"Indeed!"
"On December 1, 1991, the Stark couple were brutally murdered by an assassin on a motorcycle, who also stole the newly completed Super Soldier Serum, which was meant to be sent to S.H.I.E.L.D. for experimentation."
Qi Jun looked at Tony Stark, calmly revealing the truth about his father's death.
"No!"
"Impossible!"
"They said!"
"They just died in a car accident on their way to a party!"
"I don't believe it!"
