79 [Near Water Towers, First Served Moon]
When men and women interact, there are wars and peaces, victories and defeats, cooperation and confrontation, just like war.
Ms. Olivia Judson, PhD from Oxford University and researcher at Imperial College London, said in her book "The Gender War":
The battle between the sexes is definitely not a fiction. Although sexual reproduction is the core of the biological evolution process, her success often means his failure, and the result is an endless war and a conspiracy to win. scene.
Xiang Nan now uses military tactics to drive away tigers and devour wolves, attracting Lalita and Peggy to fight for him, so that he can just sit back and watch, reaping the benefits of being a fisherman.
He had watched the TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan" before. Zhen Huan's original character was to be kind and harmonious, but because the fights between the concubines were so vicious, she had to start fighting for favor, and even killed her favorite man for it.
Although Xiang Nan is not Emperor Yongzheng, he is young, handsome, smart, famous, and knowledgeable. His quantum navigation system will make even more money in the future.
This makes him equally charming and able to attract women to fight for. Therefore, he can make this strategy work.
If it were Leonard, even Penny wouldn't be able to do it, and even this trick would be impossible.
…
And Xiang Nan's trick really worked, because he had competitors, Lalita and Peggy all vying to be nice to him.
For example, when eating, Lalita took the initiative to bring him a soda, while Peggy took the initiative to pass him tissues.
After finishing the meal, Lalita took the initiative to play Xiang Nan's favorite movie, while Peggy prepared popcorn and drinks for them.
What made Xiang Nan the happiest was that that night, Lalita offered to move in.
"I live here at least four days a week, more often than I live in the school dormitory. I might as well move all my clothes and appliances here." She suggested to Xiang Nan.
"You want to move here, of course I welcome you." Xiang Nan nodded, and then said, "However, studies are still the most important, and they must not be neglected. Otherwise, I will not only regret your more than ten years of hard study, but also We lack a common language."
Lalita was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Xiang Nan not only graduated with a doctorate, but is also a world-renowned scholar. If she only graduated with a bachelor's degree and could not even finish a master's degree, her academic qualifications would indeed be somewhat inferior.
You know, even though Howard graduated from MIT with a master's degree in engineering, he was always teased and teased by Leonard and Xiang Nan. With just a bachelor's degree, wouldn't she be even more discriminated against?
What's especially important is that Peggy has graduated with a master's degree. If I can't catch up with her, it will be even more impossible to marry Xiang Nan.
…
Then the next day, Peggy also expressed her hope to move in with him.
"The sewer line of the house I rented is broken, and it is currently undergoing repairs. It is estimated that it will take at least a week." She said to Xiang Nan, "Can you let me stay at your house temporarily for a few days?"
Faced with such a request, Xiang Nan naturally agreed.
"No problem." He said with a smile, "There happens to be a vacant room, which is suitable for you to stay in."
The new house has a total of four bedrooms. He and Lalita will share one room, Leonard will share one, Howard will share one, and there will be just one room left for Peggy.
"If I move, I won't disturb your life, right?" Peggy asked again.
"Of course not. To be honest, it's more lively when there are more people." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Just move here."
…
That afternoon, Lalita and Peggy moved into Xiang Nan's house one after another.
"Hey, how did she move in?" Lalita asked Xiang Nan in surprise when she saw Peggy also moving in.
"The sewer of the house she rented was broken, so she stayed here for a few days." Xiang Nan explained, "Don't think too much about it."
"The sewer is broken? Is it such a coincidence?" Lalita was the first to not believe it.
"Okay, she's just staying here for a few days. She's right under your nose, think about what else could happen?" Xiang Nan advised, "Yesterday, you promised me that I wouldn't be jealous. Why do you have to go back on your word today?"
Is it done?”
"Okay then." Lalita thought about it and felt it made sense.
Peggy lives right in front of him, and he can clearly see what's going on between her and Xiang Nan. This is much better than having her not in front of him and just blindly thinking about it.
"Be good." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "You and she should take this opportunity to get along well. Even if we can't be good sisters, we shouldn't become enemies."
"Yeah, okay." Lalita nodded.
…
Leonard was dumbfounded in surprise when he saw that Xiang Nan actually brought Peggy and Lalita to live at home.
"Raj, how did you do it?" he asked with admiration.
He hasn't even managed to deal with Penny yet, but Xiang Nan has managed to deal with two people at the same time. The gap is really huge.
"Don't think too much, Peggy is just staying for a few days." Xiang Nan denied, not intending to show off to Leonard.
We must know that if the king is not secretive, his ministers will lose; if the ministers are not secretive, they will lose their virginity; if several things are not secretive, it will cause harm.
His behavior of driving tigers to devour wolves, provoking internal strife, and reaping the benefits is quite immoral in itself, so how can he publicize it so openly?
If it reaches the ears of Lalita and Peggy, his caring and gentle manly image will collapse, and even his wishful thinking will come to nothing.
"Then can you tell me how to catch up with Penny? I have tried very hard to catch up with her, but she still refuses to accept me." Leonard asked again.
Xiang Nan was speechless upon hearing this.
It's a bit taboo to teach someone to pursue his ex-girlfriend.
But having said that, Penny is not his ex-girlfriend. The two of them just had a kidney transplant and not a romantic relationship. At most, it was just a casual marriage.
What's more, in the play, Leonard and Pan Xiaohua are a couple. Not only do they love each other, but they are also very compatible. The key is that in the end, Pan Xiaohua is pregnant with Leonard's child.
So far, I have changed a lot of the plot, and even Leonard has moved away from Penny. If I don't give some ideas, I'm afraid the two of them will have to break up. After all, it's better to be close to the water.
"If you want to catch Penny, you have to keep her away from her original social circle." Xiang Nan then pointed out to Leonard, "The people she originally dated were either handsome guys or macho men, and you have no chance of winning against them.
So you have to take her out of her original social circle and often hang out with people like us. In this case, you will have a great advantage."
In the play, the reason Leonard was able to pursue Penny in the end was because he destroyed Penny's social circle.
After hanging out with four high-IQ nerds for a long time, Penny simply couldn't stand dating those strong men with well-developed limbs and simple minds.
By her own account, Leonard destroyed her ability to tolerate bad writing.
Because of this, she could only be friends with four nerds in the end. Among the four nerds, Sheldon was a giant baby, Howard was a wretched child, and Rajesh was a baby. Only Leonard was the most normal, so Penny went with him.
Come together.
