Chapter 262 Natasha, do you yearn for the sea of ??stars?
Seeing so many familiar faces, Leo sighed with emotion:
"There are quite a lot of people! It's really lively."
Leo first handed the tray to foodie Bucky. After Bucky took it, he immediately started putting mutton slices into the pot.
Leo shook his head and smiled, then took off his coat, threw it on the sofa on the right, and found an empty seat to sit down, next to Eric on the right.
"Originally we called Uncle Peter and Aunt Mary Jane, but they said they were going to stay with Grandma Mei, so they didn't come."
Eric, Leo and others have been living together for two years, and they seem to have forgotten all their unhappiness and are smiling from ear to ear.
Natasha followed Leo and sat on the empty seat next to him, bringing a burst of fragrance.
Eric saw the little Stim in her hand and immediately fell in love with it. He repeatedly asked Natasha for the little Stim and wanted to play with it.
Natasha reached over Leo, stretched out her hand and handed Little Stim to Eric, and there was a slight physical collision with Leo.
Eric happily took over Little Stim, and immediately had an interesting conversation with Little Stim, which made everyone laugh continuously.
At this time, Natasha quietly approached Leo's ear and whispered:
"The thing on your waist hurt me just now. Put it away quickly. Don't hurt Eric later."
Leo was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked down and realized that she was referring to the smart storage belt around Leo's waist.
This storage belt is completely black and is much wider and thicker than ordinary belts. Especially the dragon-shaped pattern in the front is even more ferocious.
It must have been the one that hit Natasha just now.
Leo, who understood, smiled slightly, stretched out his left hand and pressed it on the center of the faucet. The belt quickly separated, shrunk, and wrapped around Leo's wrist in an instant, like a watch, with the faucet right at the dial.
Natasha lowered her head and stared at Leo's wrist, smacking her lips: "Suddenly I really want one."
"I actually prepared something similar for you, but it's not finished yet. I'll give it to you after a while."
Leo whispered to Natasha,
"Also, as I told you last time, I asked you to prepare a detailed requirement for the uniform. Are you prepared?"
Listening to Leo's words in her ears, Natasha felt warm in her heart and whispered: "Get ready, I'll tell you after the party is over."
"Yeah." Leo nodded.
At this time, Fudge, who was sitting with Old Tom Ghost, suddenly said:
"I want to tell you something happy..."
Halfway through, Fudge suddenly stopped talking and winked at Matt.
"Matt, if you don't say it yourself, as a good brother, I will do it for you."
Everyone immediately focused their attention on Matt, including Leo, whose eyes were filled with gossip.
Even little Stim flashed his revolving eyes and looked at Matt with bright eyes.
How can we not talk about some gossip while eating hot pot in the cold weather of college?
However, as we all know, Matt is invisible, so when everyone looks at him like this, he feels no psychological pressure at all.
However, he could still hear everyone's expectations from their breathing and heartbeats, and this matter would no longer be hidden after a while, so there was no need to hide it.
So Matt held his wife Heather's hand and said softly: "Heather is pregnant and I am going to be a father."
Although Matt's eyes could not focus, everyone still saw the look of happiness and yearning on his face.
Natasha stood next to Heather and immediately took the initiative to move closer, and the two women began to communicate in a low voice.
Others were also sincerely happy for Matt and his wife, and they applauded, and the room burst into laughter.
Bucky took the opportunity to take a bite of meat, put it in his mouth, chewed it twice, and nodded with enjoyment:
"The meat is cooked and the taste is just right. This is a regular Sichuan hot pot base that I got through channels from a Chinese restaurant owner I am familiar with. It is not common. Please try it."
Little Eric was so smart that he quickly handed over the second chopstick, then quickly took a sip of ice water, fanned his mouth with one hand, and shouted: "Spicy!"
Bucky suddenly laughed happily.
Old Tom handed over the third chopstick without hesitation, with the same expression of enjoyment: "I fell in love with hot pot this damn thing the first time I tried it. I never get tired of eating it."
"No wonder I saw you eating hot pot at the hot pot restaurant on 54th Street two days ago. Who was the lady opposite you at that time? I seem to have seen you more than once."
Fudge handed over the fourth chopsticks, and while eating, he kept talking and making fun of Old Tom.
Old Tom glared: "I understand what you mean, that's my girlfriend! Why, are you jealous? Envy?"
"Congratulations, congratulations, brother, you finally found true love at the age of forty-five. I, Fudge, am really happy!"
Fudge seems to have a good relationship with Old Tom.
Everyone's gossip became more and more intense, and they all asked Old Tom what was going on.
Old Tom slowly told what happened. It turned out that he met a 38-year-old divorced woman six months ago. The two fell in love at first sight and hit it off. They had recently discussed getting married.
Maybe Old Tom will buy a house and move out of this home in a while.
Everyone congratulated each other and chatted while eating.
Next came the much-loved matchmaking session, where all the single men and women present were asked about relationship issues.
Even little Eric didn't escape. Natasha asked him about his affair with a girl at school.
Only little Stim ate the melon the whole time and walked around the table, extremely happy.
After eating and drinking, chatting and laughing, the time soon reached 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.
At 00:00 on January 1, 1995, all churches in New York rang their bells at the same time. Many people began to pray and silently made their wishes for a year.
In order to cooperate with everyone, Leo couldn't help but silently expressed a wish in his heart.
It was past midnight and everyone had almost finished playing, so naturally it was time to leave.
Everyone worked together to clean up the trash in the house, and then Matt, Heather and Fudge said goodbye and left.
At home, little Eric and old Tom, one young and the other old, had limited ability to stay up late, so they went to bed first.
Bucky drank some beer, felt energetic, and was ready to go out and find something to do.
Only Leo and Natasha were left in the living room.
Natasha was afraid of disturbing Eric and Old Tom's rest, so she pulled Leo into her bedroom.
By the way, this was the first time Leo came into Natasha's bedroom. The space was quite large, and the interior decoration was very simple, with a bed, a stool, a table, and a cabinet.
She also has cosmetics commonly used by women, and there are many of them, and at first glance they all appear to be famous brands.
However, she also had things that were not usually found in women's bedrooms, such as the two pistols hidden in the drawer and the two metal short sticks hidden under the bed.
The above was discovered by Leo through his mechanical vision. He didn't know why he subconsciously turned on the mechanical insight skill.
Maybe it's habit.
Leo closed his mechanical vision and looked at Natasha with questioning eyes.
Natasha first pulled a stool to Leo and asked him to sit down, then sat on the bed herself:
"In the past two days after Mr. Bucky came back, I asked him about some things that happened in Africa. Do you want me to go with him to destroy the Hydra base in Africa?"
"Yes, I have this plan." Leo nodded, "Why, aren't you willing to go?"
"No, I am willing to go." Natasha continued,
"But you usually did things like this yourself before, so why do you suddenly want us to do it for you? I heard from Teacher Bucky that you even wanted Matt and Peter to participate."
It has to be said that women's intuition is not generally accurate. Natasha keenly sensed something was wrong, as if Leo had a plan to train troops.
"Let me say it first. It's Bucky's own decision to want Matt to go. I won't take the blame."
Leo first distanced himself from the relationship, and then asked Natasha a question seriously,
"Natasha, do you yearn for the stars and the sea?"
