Save the Bachelor of Heaven

  Chapter 99 [Go up for a drink]

  The planet TOI700d that Xiang Nan is looking for was discovered in 2020.

  It is located a hundred light-years away in the Magellanic Cloud constellation Doradus, orbiting a red dwarf star named TOI700.

  The scientific community is inexplicably excited about its discovery.

   One is that it is only 20% larger than the earth, two is that it is located in the habitable zone, and three is that it has a suitable temperature and may contain liquid water.

  These three advantages make it likely to become a livable planet.

  Mankind has discovered countless planets so far, and there are only more than fifty habitable planets.

  Every discovery of one more is a huge breakthrough, enough to be listed in the top ten breakthroughs in physics of the year.

  For example, in 2016, the "Physics World" sponsored by the British Institute of Physics listed the discovery of Proxima Centauri B among the top ten breakthroughs of the year.

   Therefore, once Xiang Nan is certified as the discoverer, he will surely receive great glory.

  Because he knew the coordinates of TOI700d, Xiang Nan quickly locked it and took a picture of it.

   Then he sent an email to the International Astronomical Union IAU, attaching his own speculation.

  The next time is waiting for the verification of IAU.

  …

   After finishing his business, Xiang Nan breathed a sigh of relief.

   Then he heard a "click", and when he turned his head to look, he saw Howard doing magic tricks for Penny.

  He has learned magic tricks to pick up girls, and he always wears small props, but there are not many he picks up.

   Now seeing Penny with an embarrassed smile on her face, she knew that his trick hadn't worked.

   "I'm done." Xiang Nan stretched his waist and said, "Penny, do you want to watch the stars? Please come here."

   "God bless, yes." Upon hearing Penny's voice, she immediately left Howard and walked over.

   Staying with him any longer, she felt like she was going crazy. I have never seen a suitor who stalks him blindly with such a crappy method.

   "Come on, please take a seat." Xiang Nan gave up his seat to Penny, and then clicked on a planetary video, "Look, this is the sky above our heads..."

   "Wow, so beautiful." Penny said in surprise.

  The stars above are densely packed, which is far more shocking than naked eye observation.

"Yes." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Whenever I see these stars, I think of a poem by the Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore, 'I believe that among the stars, there is always a star that leads my soul through Unknown Darkness'."

   "Oh, what a beautiful poem." Penny said with emotion.

   "Indeed." Xiang Nan laughed, "There is another poem by Tagore, which I think is also very interesting.

  The fish said to the water, you can't see my tears, because I'm in the water.

  Water said to the fish, I can feel your tears, because you are in my heart..."

   "Oh~" Penny couldn't help being quite emotional when she heard such a touching love poem, and looked at Xiang Nan with watery eyes.

   "Guo Shuo, it's almost cooked, and there's so much nonsense!" Xiang Nan changed his tone immediately.

  Penny was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.

   While laughing, he poked Xiang Nan's chest, "Haha, you are so annoying, I can hardly breathe from laughing."

  Howard on the side was both surprised and envious.

   I didn't expect that after Raj's selective mutism healed without medicine, he would suddenly become a girl picker, which is really impressive.

  …

   After staying in the astronomy room for an hour, the three of them then drove away together.

   "Howie, your house is relatively close, let me take you home first." Xiang Nan said while driving.

   "Let's send Penny off first, I'm not in a hurry." Howard rolled his eyes and waved his hands quickly.

  He was worried that Xiang Nan and Penny would be alone.

   "No, let's send him first." Penny insisted.

  Xiang Nan nodded, and first sent Howard back to his home in Altadina.

   "Do you want to come in and sit down?" Howard stayed in the car, really unwilling to get out of the car.

   At this moment, the lights on the second floor of his house turned on, and a hoarse voice shouted, "Who is outside? Are they thugs?"

   "Who is that, your father?" Penny asked in surprise.

  Howard looked embarrassed, "It's almost like this."

   "Who the **** is it? I called the police." The voice continued to roar.

  Howard had no choice but to get out of the car and said loudly, "Okay, Mom, it's me!"

   "Wow!" Penny's eyes widened in surprise.

  She didn't expect Howard's mother to be so fierce, and she didn't expect him to be such an adult, and he still lives with his mother.

   "Bye, Howie." Xiang Nan didn't want to embarrass his friend, so he immediately started the car and drove Penny away.

  …

   Came downstairs to Penny's house.

   "Would you like to come up for a drink?" Penny invited with a smile.

  Xiang Nan hesitated for a moment.

  He can guess what will happen after going up, and in principle he doesn't want to be sorry for Leonard.

  However, he has never been in love since he was so old, and he has failed dozens of blind dates.

   Now there is such a beautiful blonde with a sweet smile and a hot body who invites him home.

  Xiang Nan really couldn't refuse.

   Soon, his desire overcame his reason, "Okay."

   Afterwards, he returned home with Penny.

   Followed by drinking, kissing, hugging...

   This is the first time for Xiang Nan to experience this kind of experience. It feels like a dream, so psychedelic, so unreal.

   It wasn't until he woke up early and saw Penny lying beside him that Xiang Nan really regained consciousness.

   "Thirty-two years of being single..." he said with infinite emotion in his heart.

   Unable to sleep any more, Xiang Nan looked at his watch, then got up quietly, and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

  Raj is a person who knows how to enjoy life very much. He claims to be a brown version of Martha Stewart (the Queen of Housekeeping in the United States) and has good cooking skills.

   After Xiang Nan became him, he also inherited his culinary skills.

   After three times, five times and two times, he cooked a rich breakfast.

  Penny woke up from the dream when she smelled the fragrance, then she put on her nightgown and walked out of the bedroom.

   "Good morning, beauty! Breakfast is ready, go wash your face and brush your teeth, and then you can eat." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

   "Wow, your cooking skills are better than mine." Seeing that he was making fried eggs, toast, and sausages again, Penny couldn't help but said.

   "Thank you for the compliment." Xiang Nan smiled and nodded.

  …

   After washing up, the two had breakfast together.

   "Well, it tastes really good." Penny praised while eating.

   "Thank you." Xiang Nan nodded, "By the way, Penny, do you have time today, I want to buy some new clothes, can you give me a reference?"

   "Okay." Penny immediately agreed when she heard that she wanted to go shopping.

   After breakfast, the two got tired of it for a while, and then drove to Macy's in the city center.

   When they came to the clothing area on the second floor, the two began to go shopping one by one.

  Penny's aesthetic vision is still very good. Especially from a girl's point of view, she knows what kind of dress girls appreciate, so she actually helped Xiang Nan choose several handsome outfits.
