Standing in front of the iron fence, Bruce couldn't help but tighten his right hand holding the gift bag, raised his left hand and pressed the peaked cap on his head, and then rang the doorbell.

Elisa sat in the living room early in the morning. Although she held the guitar in her hand, her fingers kept pressing on the strings without any movement.The moment the bell rang, she jumped up from the sofa almost immediately and ran towards the door.

Christo, who had just raised his head when he heard the bell, only had time to see Elisa's back. She turned her head and looked at Charles helplessly. He frowned deeply.

Elisa put on her boots and ran towards the door with small steps. The moment her eyes met, a faint smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth.

Under his gaze, Elisa rushed to the fence excitedly, pressed the switch on the side, and just as the gate was opened a crack, she had already grasped Bruce's hand, fingers clasped tightly together deliberately.

She grasped so hard, as if she would lose her if she let go of her hand a little bit.

……

Christo saw the smile on Elisa's face through the window, and her eyes moved down to the hands they clasped, and couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that Eliza likes her boyfriend very much."

Hearing her words, Charles, who was sitting next to her, looked at Christo's side face, put his hand on the armrest, but silently increased his strength.

"Yes."

Charles responded lightly, and then set his sights on the man who walked in.

The moment he saw the other party clearly, the corners of Charles' mouth curled into a reserved arc, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"Bruce, this is my mother, Christopher Lin." After Elisa introduced Christopher, her arm moved towards Charles, but she froze in mid-air, her mouth stammering, as if the words were blocked Like a throat.

In the air of silence, Christo watched Eliza nervously, her hands clenched into fists on the arm of the sofa.But felt a hand gently patted her clenched fist.

Charles turned to Bruce with a smile, and before he could speak, he heard Eliza's voice.

"...This is my father."

The moment he heard that word, the expression on Christo's face relaxed for an instant, and Charles was taken aback for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising.Elisa turned her head to avoid the eyes of the two.

Bruce took everyone's reactions into his eyes, and a thought flashed quickly in his eyes.

Iron Man, Spider-Man, and now a Professor X.

He should have noticed the strangeness in Eliza long ago, shouldn't he?

Bruce first reached out to Charles, "Mr. Xavier, hello."

Only then did Charles turn his gaze back to Bruce, and the moment he looked back, his expression returned to that unpredictable smile.He shook Bruce's hand back, "Hello, Mr. Wayne."

"Come, come, sit down." Under Christo's call, Elisa gently tugged Bruce's sleeve, and the two sat down on the sofa side by side.

Christo poured a cup of tea for Bruce, and when he handed it over, his eyes fell on Bruce, and he looked him up and down.

In the newspaper before, she did not miss the lace news about Bruce.

Christo and Charles exchanged glances, Charles nodded slightly, and Christo took Elisa's hand and stood up from the sofa, "Elisa, you and I come to the kitchen to get some biscuits."

"Huh?" Elisa got up subconsciously and followed Christo.

As soon as the two women left, Charles, who stayed in the living room, immediately suppressed all the smiles on his face, "Mr. Bruce Wayne." He bit out the name word by word, "Or should I call you ..."

"Batman?"

Bruce was silent for a moment, "Just call me Bruce."

"Okay, Bruce." Charles clasped his hands on his knees, staring into Bruce's eyes, "I only have one question, are you sincere to Elisa?"

"Yes." Bruce answered in the affirmative without hesitation.

"My second question is, if one day, a hundred civilians and Elisa were in two different directions, and you only had time to go in one direction, which side would you choose?"

The moment he heard Charles' question clearly, Bruce's pupils shrank suddenly, and his fingers grabbed the folds of his suit pants.

"I..." Bruce opened his mouth, but felt his throat was so dry that he couldn't speak, "I won't let this happen."

Charles watched Bruce's reaction, but already saw his real decision.

"Batman, you are a hero." Charles stared into Bruce's eyes and said lightly, "But at some point, a hero can only become a coward."

When Charles said this, it seemed that the dazzling red scene appeared in front of his eyes again.

……

When Elisa and Christo returned to the living room, they saw only two silent men.

Not long after, Bruce received an emergency call, "Sorry, I might have to leave first."

A faint look of disappointment appeared on Elisa's face, but she quickly adjusted her expression, "Then I'll take you out."

As soon as the figures of the two disappeared at the door, Christo put down his teacup and looked at Charles, "What did you tell him just now?"

Charles met Christo's eyes calmly, "Just chatting about how he and Elisa met."

Christo stared into his eyes and raised his eyebrows, "It's definitely not the topic. After all these years, can you control your micro-expressions when you lie?"

"Is it useful if I control it?" Charles said with a smile.

"Maybe." Christo muttered in a low voice, "What's your opinion on Bruce? I think Eliza likes him quite a bit."

"It's too effortless." As soon as Charles said this answer, he immediately received the same look from Christopher as before.

"Seriously, what's the reason?"

Charles sighed softly, "I don't want to see that thing happen again."

"Charles..." Christo whispered, holding Charles' hand, only to find that his fingers were frighteningly cold.

What Charles was talking about, both of them were tacit.

"It's all over."

Hearing these words, Charles met Christo's worried eyes, pulled the corner of his mouth slightly, and held Christo in his arms.

"Yeah, it's all over..."

As he said this, when he hugged Christo in his arms, his lips couldn't help trembling a few times.

No.

It's not over yet.

The results of Eliza's debut album fell below everyone's attention.When the results came out in the first week, the mocking media was divided into two factions. One faction kept bragging about the results of Elisa’s two previous singles, but at the end of the report, there was always a seemingly fair statement "The quality of Eliza's first album is not good"; while the other faction is constantly comparing the first week album sales of other singers in the same year.But no matter which faction they are, their central idea is the same-the sales of Eliza's first album will definitely decline.

But one week, two weeks, three weeks...

From June until now, Elisa's first week of sales has never dropped out of the top [-], and she has won the first place several times.

At this time, the media that started to sneer at the poor sales of Eliza's first album all shut up one after another.

How can such a result be ridiculed?

In contrast, the rating of Eliza's first album on the website continued to rise, and finally maintained at a high score of 8.9.

After releasing a new album, many singers will hold a round of concert tours. In addition to consolidating their popularity, the income from the concerts is also a large part of the reason.However, Eliza has not announced the news of the concert for a long time. After the Christmas scandal, Elisa seems to have disappeared in front of the media.Only some street photographers who are active on the streets of Hollywood can occasionally capture Eliza.
