Pietro pointed to the kitchen and began to speak.
None of the three of them seem to know how to cook.
"Just order takeout..."
Luo Xing answered casually, but stopped halfway through his sentence.
It seems that the food delivery industry in the Americas is underdeveloped; most food orders are placed by phone, which are expensive, slow, and unpalatable.
I remember in my previous life, the online food ordering rate in the great Eastern country was 74%, while in the Americas it was a pitiful 6%.
In that instant, Luo Xing suddenly had the idea of starting a food delivery company, but it was rejected the next second.
The Americas are sparsely populated and have a tradition of tipping, so a food delivery company would probably go bankrupt very quickly.
Besides, he doesn't have any capital to start a company.
"Money Can, why aren't you in any trouble yet?"
Luo Xing picked up a stack of newspapers from the table, looked at the gossip about Tony Stark, and said in a low voice.
Starting a food delivery or online shopping company to make money? Where's the fastest, most stable, and risk-free way to make money? Just ask a sucker!
"Wanda, the pizza is ready. Do you want some?"
Pietro opened the oven and took out the frozen pizza he had bought at the supermarket that day.
"Well, here I come!"
Ding dong.
Wanda had just run halfway when the doorbell suddenly rang.
"Is that the female driver here? Wanda, could you open the door for me?"
Luo Xing flipped through the newspaper and said.
"Ok!"
Little Wanda ran outside wearing SpongeBob's slippers.
Hello... uh?
Skye, led by Wanda, walked into the living room and saw Luo Xing sprawled on the sofa reading a mysterious magazine. Instantly, all her previous tension vanished.
That's it?
This is the man, as recorded in the highest level 10 secret of that mysterious national organization, who is suspected of single-handedly wiping out the Olympian pantheon?
He looks like an ordinary person who has just finished a busy day at get off work!
"you?"
Luo Xing glanced at the new female driver and was taken aback.
Isn't that Skye, the vibrating female character?
"you know me?"
"do not know."
Luo Xing shook his head. He had only seen this face in TV dramas; he naturally didn't recognize it in real life.
"Where is my room?"
Skye gestured to the luggage in her hand and asked.
"Uh……"
Luo Xing turned to Pietro and Wanda: "Where are you going to stay?"
The house has two floors; there are two bedrooms on the first floor and four bedrooms on the second floor.
"I live on the first floor."
"Me too."
Pietro and Wanda exchanged a glance and replied.
Although some time has passed, they are still haunted by that attack.
Especially Wanda, if she hadn't been caught, she would have fallen down and gone with her parents.
So for the siblings, the first floor is where they feel safer.
"Then I'll take the one on the far left, is that okay?"
Skye pointed upstairs and looked at Luo Xing, asking a question.
"No problem, then the one on the far right is mine."
Luo Xing helped Sky carry her luggage upstairs and then told everyone about her room.
As for the two blank spaces in the middle, let them remain blank.
thump.
Just as Luo Xing was about to go downstairs to eat pizza, he suddenly heard a soft thud as something fell to the ground, and the source... seemed to be in his room.

Click.
"Damn, who did S.H.I.E.L.D. send to clean up? The windows are open, and trash is flying in."
Luo Xing kicked a few pieces of plastic on the ground, somewhat speechless, then picked them up and threw them into the "

"Damn, who did S.H.I.E.L.D. send to clean up? The windows are open, and trash is flying in."
Luo Xing kicked a few pieces of plastic on the ground, speechless, picked them up, and threw them into the trash can.
After cleaning up the trash and closing the window, Luo Xing clapped his hands, closed the bedroom door, and went downstairs.
"what are you doing?"
As soon as Luo Xing went downstairs, he saw Skye not eating, but holding an electric drill and installing something at the door.
"To protect your privacy and safety."
Skye glanced back at Luo Xing slightly, then continued what she was doing. "These are specially designed alarm devices to prevent illegal intrusion to the greatest extent possible."
"besides……"
"I'll install a program on those two kids' phones later, so it will immediately send a message to our terminal if any problems occur."
Skye continued speaking as she carefully installed the device.
"Remember to install one for yourself too."
Luo Xing sat down at the table, picked up a slice of pizza and put it in his mouth, then took a sip of juice.
I have to say, these frozen foods taste really awful.
"I?"
Skye was slightly taken aback.
"If something happens to you, I'll know in time and rush to your rescue."
"But don't get me wrong, I'm worried that if the enemy catches you, they might use your hacking skills to launch a counterattack, which would be very troublesome."
Luo Xing said casually while chewing on his pizza.
"Okay, I get it now."
Skye pursed her lips and withdrew her thoughts.
Indeed, although she considers herself good-looking, not everyone will necessarily be fond of her.
According to the information, the person in front of her should be an old-fashioned person, so why would he take the initiative to care about her?
However, what she said makes sense. If she is caught and forced to confess, then all the security measures installed today will become a burden and a weak point.
however……
Seeing Skye's expression, Luo Xing's lips curled up slightly as he drank his juice.
Skye only saw the second floor and thought he was on the first floor, when in fact he was on the fifth floor.
His seemingly straightforward and masculine remarks actually gave Skye a subconscious sense of reassurance.
As the blond vampire Dio once said, all the goals that humans pursue, whether it be wealth or power, are ultimately to gain the most basic sense of security.
Of course, in the end, Luo Xing just wanted to get along well with this pretty girl. As for whether he wanted to pursue her... well, that's another story.
"By the way, can you cook? Why don't you take over as our chef?"
After finishing his meal, Luo Xing took a tissue to wipe his mouth and walked over to Skye, who was still being installed.
"Is there a salary?"
Skye paused slightly in her work, then asked.
S.H.I.E.L.D. only gave her the title of field agent, saying she was a special advisor directly under Los Angeles. Her salary was barely enough to live on, and her fuel expenses were all reimbursed.
"what will you do?"
"I know a little bit of both Chinese and Western food,"
"The trial period is one week. If your pizza tastes better than frozen pizza, then it will be 3000 per month."
Luo Xing took out a pizza from behind him and placed it in front of Skye.
"Thank you."
Skye grabbed a piece and popped it into her mouth. "But isn't 3000 a bit too little? I think it should be at least 5000 dollars."
"I'll raise your price when I have the money."
"I even said I'd take care of you when I'm rich, pfft."
Skye pursed her lips, assuming that Luo Xing was unwilling to increase the compensation.
—When I have money, I'll do this and that. Isn't that obviously just an empty promise?
