Chapter 6 6 [Without comparison, there is no gap]
"Raj, when will your selective mutism heal? Why don't I know?" Howard handed the takeaway to Xiang Nan. asked curiously.
"Actually, there were signs of improvement before, and I should be completely healed today." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "But I don't know exactly how it got better. I guess it's probably It’s a miracle.”
Too many words will lead to mistakes. He didn’t want to discuss this matter anymore, so everything was pushed to metaphysics.
Seeing him say this, Sheldon rolled his eyes.
Howard stopped worrying and nodded with a smile, "Congratulations!"
Then he said excitedly, "It's good that your illness is cured. In this way, we can work together to pick up girls." , it just so happens that you can be my wingman."
Xiang Nan smiled.
In the play, although Howard is very horny, he picks up girls whenever he sees them, and he does all kinds of tricks. They are doing magic tricks, speaking foreign languages, and pretending to be goths, but the success rate is very low.
Throughout the whole play, he only managed to catch up with Bernadette, and his record was not as good as Raj and Leonard’s, so how could he be worthy of being a wingman.
...
At this moment, Leonard came out of the bathroom excitedly, "Sheldon, follow me."
"What to do?" Sheldon was confused. asked.
"You'll find out if you come with me." Leonard said mysteriously.
Seeing this, Sheldon immediately became interested and stood up immediately, "Are you going to the comic store to buy comics or the supermarket to buy batteries? Wait, don't tell me yet, let me make a guess. .”
Xiang Nan smiled and knew that Leonard was asked by Penny to go to her ex-boyfriend to get a TV set.
But because they had no deterrent effect, not only did they not get the TV back, but they had their pants taken off.
Xiang Nan didn't feel bad at all when Sheldon's pants were taken off. Why did he have such a venomous tongue?
But he couldn't bear to see Leonard suffer, so he stood up immediately.
"Wait, Leonard, where are you going?" Xiang Nan asked.
"..." Leonard said reluctantly.
He hoped this was his and Penny's little secret.
"What's going on?" When Howard saw this, he suddenly became suspicious and asked the same question.
Leonard was not good at lying, but when pressed by the two men, he had no choice but to tell the truth.
When Howard heard this, he knew it was a good opportunity to please a beautiful woman and immediately applied to participate.
Sheldon looked disappointed. He thought Leonard was taking him out to have fun, but he didn't expect that he was asked to be a porter, and he suddenly became speechless.
Leonard flatly rejected Howard's application.
He has regarded Penny as a treasure and will never allow anyone to snatch her away from him.
Howard was rejected. Although he was very reluctant, he still chose to give in because he and Leonard were good friends.
"Sheldon, if you are willing to accompany me, I will give you the first edition of the "Green Lantern" comic." He tempted Sheldon again.
Although Sheldon was very reluctant, but inspired by the comics, he quickly agreed.
Leonard will take Sheldon off immediately.
"Leonard, I want to remind you that you can't go like this." Upon seeing this, Xiang Nan quickly reminded.
“Why?” Leonard stopped and looked at Xiang Nandao doubtfully.
"It's very simple. Just by looking at you, I can tell that you are a nerd, so will they return the TV to you?" Xiang Nan explained.
After hearing what he said and looking at each other's clothes, Leonard immediately had no way to refute.
"In my opinion, you'd better change into a suit and pretend to be Penny's lawyer." Xiang Nan suggested.
In the United States, lawyers are a formidable profession, and no one wants to mess with them. Leonard was thoughtful when he heard this.
"But we are not Penny's lawyer. Doesn't this make us lie?" Sheldon simply refused.
Although he has many faults, he does not lie and will say whatever he has to say. This is one of his few strengths.
“You can think of it as a real-life pretending game, in which you play a lawyer.” Xiang Nan said with a slight smile. He knew that Sheldon liked to play games the most, just like a little kid. Like children.
When Sheldon heard this, he became interested.
Immediately, Leonard and I changed into formal clothes and went to claim the TV back.
……
After Leonard and Sheldon left, Xiang Nan and Howard returned to their seats and continued eating.
They ate Indian food, and to be honest, the taste was really unpleasant.
While eating, Penny had already taken a bath. After going home and changing her clothes, she returned to 4A again.
"You work together at the same university as Leonard and Sheldon?" She sat next to Xiang Nan and asked him with a smile.
"Yes, we are all colleagues." Howard replied eagerly, and took the initiative to hand over a pack of juice, "Penny, where did you get it from?"
"Well, I'm from Omaha." Penny smiled, and then asked Xiang Nan, "Where are you from?"
Before Xiang Nan could answer, Howard rushed to say, "Omaha? ! I thought you came from Mars, because only the gravity of Mars can shape your buttocks like this."
Penny couldn't help but frown when he heard him praising herself.
"Let me tell you a secret, I am also the developer of the Mars Rover. If you are interested, I can let you drive on Mars." Howard approached Penny again and said proudly .
Penny rolled her eyes when she heard what he said.
Xiang Nan couldn't help but frown when he saw Howard being so anxious and speaking so vulgarly.
Although he is not a love expert, he also knows that when pursuing a girl, it is best to stop at the point and remember to stalk her.
Meanwhile, it will not impress girls, it will only make them disgusted.
"Penny, I noticed that you just moved here today, and you must have a lot of housework to take care of. Howard and I happen to be fine, do you want us to help you?" Xiang Nan suggested with a smile.
When Penny heard this, she was very moved.
She had just moved here, and the house was in a mess. Her luggage was still in the boxes, so it really needed to be taken care of.
"How can this be so embarrassing?" she hesitated.
"Don't worry, we'll be fine anyway." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Howie, are you right?"
"Of course, I'm happy to help." Howard was flattered. If a girl is given an opportunity, she immediately accepts it.
"Thank you then." Penny was very happy to see this, and immediately brought Xiang Nan and Howard to her room.
The three of them immediately started to pack up.
......
Actually, Howard is not good at housework. He lives with his mother, who does all the housework.
So when I work now, I feel inadequate. I often stand there stupidly, not knowing what to do.
On the other hand, Xiang Nan has lived alone since he graduated from college at the age of 22, and he also takes care of housework by himself, so he sweeps, mops, and cleans windows in an orderly manner.
Penny is the daughter of a farm and has been doing farm work since she was a child. Taking care of the housework is a piece of cake for her.
Now that she saw Xiang Nan and Howard working together, she couldn't help but feel a comparison in her heart.
