"Penny, thank you so much. Without your help, I wouldn't have been able to buy such suitable clothes." Xiang Nan smiled and thanked Penny, and then handed over a handbag, "This is a small gift. Please accept it."
Penny was surprised.
She has dated so many boyfriends, but not many of them took the initiative to give her gifts.
She happily took it, opened the handbag and saw a pair of new PRADA women's shoes inside.
"Wow!" Penny's eyes widened in surprise.
Such a pair of women's shoes is worth at least a thousand dollars.
She was really flattered that Xiang Nan actually gave her such an expensive gift.
"Honey, you don't have to give me such an expensive gift." She smiled sheepishly.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you like it." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
No matter what, Penny was his first woman. Not to mention just a pair of shoes, even the entire Macy's Department Store, as long as he could afford it, would buy it for her.
"Thank you, Honey, you are so kind to me." Penny took the initiative to give you a sweet kiss, "Now let's go to dinner and then go home. I want to reward you well."
Xiang Nan understood immediately and nodded with a smile.
…
After lunch, the two returned to Penny's house again.
A day of intimacy.
It wasn't until the next day, a working day, that the two were forced to separate.
I drove to Caltech and just sat down in the office when Howard knocked on the door and walked in.
"Raj, where were you yesterday? I've been looking for you all day." He asked excitedly.
"I'm sorry, buddy, I was with Penny yesterday." Xiang Nan spread his hands.
Although he didn't want to show off, it was the reality.
"What?!" Howard's eyes widened when he heard this, "You and Penny stayed together for a whole day?!"
"To be exact, it was one day and two nights, from Saturday night to this morning!" Xiang Nan smiled and nodded.
Thinking of the lingering love that lasted for two days, he couldn't help but smile.
"Hiss..." Howard took a breath.
He really didn't expect that Raj would have such an affair.
Penny, with blond hair, blue eyes, bulging figure, and sweet smile, is a beauty.
He had met for the first time the day before yesterday and had already fallen in love at first sight, but he didn't want to be beaten to the punch by Raj.
"You lucky soul." Howard couldn't help but sigh, "I really shouldn't have gotten out of the car that night."
"Okay, don't be sad." Seeing this, Xiang Nan smiled and comforted him, "When my relationship with Penny stabilizes, I will ask her to introduce you to your girlfriend."
"Thank you~ thank you~" When Howard heard this, his gloom suddenly changed, he hugged Xiang Nan and shouted excitedly.
"Now tell me, how does it feel?" he asked in a low voice.
Xiang Nan pushed him away and said, "Howie, if you really want to find a girlfriend, don't act so eager and vulgar."
"Okay, you are the boss, everything is up to you." Howard asked others for help, and he naturally obeyed.
…
After Howard left, Xiang Nan started working.
Raj’s official position is an assistant research professor in the Department of Physics at Caltech, where he is currently responsible for the study of planets in the Kuiper Belt.
The Kuiper Belt is a hollow disk-shaped region of the solar system with dense celestial bodies near the ecliptic plane beyond the orbit of Neptune.
There are hundreds of thousands of tiny planets there, among which Pluto, once one of the nine planets, is located.
Studying the Kuiper Belt will help people understand the origin and evolution of the solar system, thereby deepening our understanding of the universe we live in.
In the series, the reason why Raj was selected by "People" as "The Thirty Most Watchable People Under Thirty in the World" is because he discovered a planet 2008-NQ Sub-17 in the Kuiber Belt.
Xiang Nan read relevant papers before traveling through time.
He couldn't understand it at first, but after reading it, his mind was in a mess.
However, after receiving Raj's IQ, knowledge of astronomy, and superhuman memory, he quickly understood the papers.
At that moment, he began to write the paper "Edgworth-Kyber Debris Disk".
This paper was co-published in 2010 by well-known scholars Witens Christian and Kliviv Alexander V.
It proposes a new algorithm to eliminate slope and distance selection effects in a known TNO population, thereby deriving the expected parameters of a "true" EKB.
This is of great benefit to the study of the Kuiper belt, so after the completion of the paper, it was quickly published by the top journal "Astronomy and Astrophysics" and included by Oxford University Press, OA Library, Research Gate, etc.
If Xiang Nan can publish this paper first, it will undoubtedly be of great help to enhance his status and popularity in the industry.
…
Xiang Nan has been busy writing papers all morning.
Although he already knew the main points of the paper, it was not easy to write a paper.
He also needs to collect information, verify data, and draw models... In short, this is a very detailed work that cannot be completed in a week or two.
At noon, Howard invited him to the cafeteria for dinner.
There, he met up with Leonard and Sheldon.
As soon as he saw him, Leonard's expression became a little stiff.
"How could you do this to me?!" he asked Raj.
"What did I do to you?" Xiang Nan was a little confused.
"Penny was my first choice, why did you snatch her away?" Leonard asked angrily.
"Please, she is a person, not an object. How could I snatch her away? You are a bit objectifying women." Xiang Nan laughed.
Leonard's momentum was blocked, and his voice immediately softened, "I didn't mean that. In short, you understand in your heart."
"I understand, but you really can't blame me. She took the initiative to invite me to her house for a drink." Xiang Nan spread his hands and said, "If it were you, would you refuse?"
When Howard heard this, his eyes immediately shone with envy.
Leonard remained silent.
If it were him, he really couldn't refuse.
"Okay, don't be sad. There is a saying in China, 'There is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world, so why fall in love with a flower.'" Xiang Nan persuaded with a smile, "There are so many beautiful women in the world, why do you only love her?" one."
"You have Penny now, of course you speak lightly." Leonard said bitterly.
There are indeed many beautiful women, but he has never caught one.
"Don't worry, we are all friends. We share blessings and share hardships. After my relationship with Penny stabilizes, I will ask her to help introduce friends to you." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Yeah!" Leonard stopped complaining and cheered happily.
"Raj, don't forget me either." Howard reminded him immediately for fear of falling behind.
"I feel really sad for you." Sheldon on the side curled his lips and said disdainfully when he saw that they were only talking about women.
