78 [One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers]
Turn around and return to the laboratory.
After Xiang Nan saw Peggy, he did not take the initiative to mention that she and Lalita met by chance yesterday.
Instead, he pretended as if nothing had happened and continued busy with his scientific research work.
He has to wait for Peggy to ask himself, so that he can take the initiative.
After Peggy saw Xiang Nan at work, she focused on her work and led the team to calculate equations and create a theoretical basis for the miniaturization of the quantum navigation system. However, she never explained the matter of Lalita to her, which made her feel a little uneasy.
She secretly likes Xiang Nan, and she also knows that Xiang Nan likes her. But she didn't know that Xiang Nan actually has a fiancée.
If Lalita did not lie and this was really the case, what should she do?
Should we continue a secret love that is doomed to be fruitless, or should we cut through the knot with a sharp knife and suffer long-term pain rather than short-term pain?
She was really hesitant for a while.
However, there is absolutely no way she can do anything but poach Xiang Nan!
Because she had suffered from her parents' divorce since she was a child, she was determined not to destroy anyone's family.
No matter how much she likes Xiang Nan, she can't break this rule.
…
Finally, it was time for lunch, and everyone ate together in the private dining room.
Peggy was looking for an opportunity to ask Xiang Nan who Lalita was.
At this moment, Howard came over and gloated, "Did you hear that Sheldon moved into the office?"
Interrupted by him, Peggy had to shut up temporarily.
"No way?!" Leonard said in surprise.
"He was not used to commuting by bus, and there was no one to help him get food at home, so before he found a new roommate who was willing to be exploited by him, he decided to settle down in the office." Howard laughed, "He was at the ATM.
Buy a sandwich to eat and take a shower in the bathroom of the radiation laboratory. To be honest, this is a good choice for him."
After hearing what he said, everyone thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Sheldon's ability to take care of himself is so poor that he can hardly survive alone.
Although it was pitiful to live in an office, at least he could still live and work this way. Otherwise, they would probably have to collect his body soon.
"However, I'm worried that he will have to live in the office from now on." Howard laughed again.
"Howie, he was our friend after all, don't curse him like that." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
There is no deep hatred between him and Sheldon, but it's just that they don't get along with each other because of their incompatibility, and they can't commit the crime of adding insult to injury when he is lonely.
"Yeah." Howard nodded, "Raj, you are still kind-hearted. If it were anyone else, you would have beaten the dog in the water."
Leonard nodded in agreement.
Sheldon simply regards Xiang Nan as his mortal enemy and hurts others time and time again. In comparison, Xiang Nan still treats him with such pity, and he is really a good friend.
If Sheldon was even half magnanimous, he wouldn't be in such a miserable situation.
…
After eating, everyone left one after another.
"Raj, wait a minute." Seeing that Xiang Nan was about to leave, Peggy hurriedly asked him to stay.
Everyone stopped and looked at her suspiciously.
Peggy looked a little embarrassed for a moment.
"Okay, you go back first and I'll have a few words with her." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
Leonard and Howard looked at each other, smiled, and then went back together.
"Do you have anything to talk to me about? Sit down and talk." Xiang Nan invited her to sit down and said.
"Yes." Peggy sat down, thought for a moment, and then said, "I met Lalita at your house yesterday when I was helping you clean. She said she was your fiancée..."
Xiang Nan smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, she was just joking with you. Lalita is not my fiancée, she is the one my parents introduced to me. You also know that India is still very backward.
There are also many traditional customs.
We felt pretty good after we met, and we are indeed dating now, but it is too early to talk about marriage."
When Peggy heard this, she felt relieved immediately.
As long as Lalita is not engaged to Xiang Nan, then her fiancée does not count.
"So that's it." She nodded.
"Actually, she also told me about you yesterday." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"What did you say?" Peggy asked curiously.
"She said you were too beautiful and you were always by my side, so she was very worried about you and insisted that I fire you." Xiang Nan said.
"What?! How could she be like this!" When Peggy heard this, she immediately said displeased.
He didn't want to destroy Xiang Nan and her family, but he didn't expect that she would drive him away first.
Since she is so domineering, she will not leave.
"Don't worry, I didn't promise her." Xiang Nan comforted her.
"Thank you." Peggy nodded happily.
"You're welcome. You've already suffered so many grievances, how can I bear to make you sad again." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
Hearing what he said, Peggy was suddenly moved.
"Actually, the reason why Lalita rejects you is because you don't have much contact with her. From now on, you can come to my house to play more and have more contact with her." Xiang Nan suggested again.
Peggy thought for a moment, then nodded.
…
In the evening, Xiang Nan took Peggy back home.
Lalita was stunned when she saw Peggy.
"Raj, how did she come?" she asked in surprise.
"You are always suspicious and suspect that I have a problem with her. Now that I have brought her home, right under your nose, you don't have to make blind assumptions." Xiang Nan explained, "And she is
My assistant is also an important member of the team, and you must learn to accept her. Otherwise, sooner or later there will be problems between us."
Hearing what he said, Lalita could only nod her head even though she was very reluctant.
Then, she put on the posture of a hostess, smiled and stretched out her hand to Peggy, "Peggy, you are welcome to come to our home."
Peggy heard what she said and couldn't help but be startled, then smiled and said, "Thank you."
Just then, the doorbell rang again.
"It should be that the takeaway we ordered has arrived." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan said with a smile.
When Lalita and Peggy heard this, they immediately rushed to answer the door, vying to be the hostess.
"Raj, what are you doing?" Howard asked curiously when he saw this.
You must know that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Xiang Nan took Peggy home and introduced him to Lalita. This is simply too much good life, and he wants to find fault for himself.
"What the hell can I do?" Xiang Nan spread his hands and said innocently.
In fact, his purpose for doing this was to sit on a mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.
Any thing, even if it is worthless, will immediately double in value as long as someone robs it.
The same is true for people. The more people fight for it, the rarer it becomes.
In "The Big Bang Theory", Penny was originally dispensable to Leonard, but when he got Priya by his side, she immediately became jealous. Not only did she scold Priya behind her back, but she also lamented that she
Missed a good man.
