When Levi saw Tony Stark again, Tony Stark was just as wretched as he was the last time.
"Oh, Tony, why are you always so wretched every time?"
Levi said sarcastically.
Tony Stark replied, "Whose fault is it that some people only watch the show? Next time, I'll watch too."
"Is that so? Who exactly are you talking about?"
He rolled his eyes: "Don't think I don't know you."
"Is there anything Red Queen doesn't know?"
"Ahem, Tony, this is a tribulation for you."
Levi confirmed: "A true hero must endure heavenly trials; a mediocre talent is never envied!"
Tony Stark, however, was too lazy to argue with him further.
Anyway, he was fine.
At worst, he would just come back later.
Tony Stark quickly went to take a hot bath, and he immediately felt refreshed.
Afterwards, he found Levi and said, "Li, I need to have surgery."
"What kind of surgery? Buy one get one free?"
Seeing Levi's expression, Tony Stark's face instantly darkened: "Get lost."
"I need to take the shrapnel out of my body."
The reason he had always worn the reactor was to use its energy to attract and hold the bomb fragments inside his body.
But this was like a ticking time bomb; he didn't know when it would take his life.
But Tony Stark had been cowardly before, afraid to undergo surgery to remove it.
Because the surgery carried great risks; if he wasn't careful, he might die.
So he chose to bury his head in the sand.
However, under the power of love, Tony Stark finally made a decision.
After all, he couldn't possibly keep living while wearing this thing forever.
Levi was not surprised either, as this was something destined to happen.
So he patted Tony Stark on the shoulder and said approvingly, "You've finally grown up, my good son."
"Get lost!"
Tony Stark sighed helplessly: "Do you have a surgical Doctor there?"
Levi replied, "Of course, I know a super powerful Doctor. The most he does is have a slight tremor, but the surgery will definitely go smoothly."
"Oh, right, his tremor was caused by a car accident..."
"Do you want me to die?"
Tony Stark rolled his eyes.
Levi chuckled and still went to find a Doctor for Tony.
In reality, for someone who possessed the resources of several Worlds, finding this kind of top-tier Doctor was incredibly easy.
Tony Stark also valued his life highly, so he agreed only after personally reviewing the Doctor's resume.
The surgery quickly began and was arranged in the Heavenly Palace.
The moment Tony Stark lay down on the operating table, he was clearly a little frightened.
Dressed in a hospital gown and without having meticulously groomed himself, he clearly lacked his usual high spirits.
At that moment, he looked like a scared middle-aged man.
Before going into surgery, he even asked Levi, who was standing beside him, "I won't die, right?"
"No, you won't. Even if you die, I can bring you back to life. Rest assured."
Levi said casually.
He had plenty of those kinds of medicines; forcibly extending Tony Stark's life was certainly something he could do.
But all Tony Stark heard was that he was going to die.
He immediately looked despairing.
At this moment, only Pepper's comfort was effective.
"Tony, it's alright. You will be safe."
The two of them had only recently officially confirmed their romantic relationship.
Although Levi didn't know what exactly was beautiful about Pepper.
She was truly too ordinary; she lacked a figure, lacked good looks, and even had pockmarks on her face...
But it had to be said that she was a capable person.
At the very least, she was able to manage the company well while Tony Stark was playing around, and she was also fiercely loyal.
For this one point alone, even if Pepper was a little ugly, Tony Stark didn't care.
