Finally got Amanda's case done, Martin was so happy that he even jumped back to the apartment to climb the stairs.
In his previous life, he was just a little assistant who wanted to be a lawyer. He had always admired the profession of a lawyer who would call the wind and call the rain and scold backer behind a big event. In this life, his wish finally came true.
After joining a law firm for a month, he has settled a civil case and a criminal case, and has so many potential clients. He has already established a firm foothold in the lawyer industry and is qualified to compete with the top group of people in the world. Sit on an equal footing.
A good beginning is half the battle!
Opening the door whistling, I found four friends gathered together on the couch looking at a laptop.
"Let me guess... Tickets for the new Star Trek movie are on sale?"
Martin walked over curiously, only to find two middle-aged Indians with obvious characteristics on the computer.
"Dad, Mom, this is Martin Scott, the lawyer you've always wanted to see..."
Rajesh stood up first, pushed Martin directly across from the computer and sat down, then whispered in his ear, "Martin, I need your help, my parents want me to go on a blind date!"
"Blind date? Isn't that a good thing?"
Before Martin could ask for details, he saw two Indians on the computer greeting him warmly.
"Mr. Scott...I'm so glad my sons have such wonderful friends as you...and Priya, thank you for everything you've done for them..."
"Hi, Mr. Kuslapari and his wife, it's nice to meet you!" Martin put on a smirk when facing the client: "You have two very good children, I am very curious about your children's education. of course, I don't have children yet, but it doesn't affect my preparation for this in advance..."
Watching the familiar chat between Martin and Rajesh's parents, several others looked at each other.
"Rajesh, are you sure that Martin is meeting your parents for the first time?" Howard exclaimed, "He behaved like the best kid in your family!"
"Martin is always liked by the elders, just like my mother and grandmother..." Sheldon testified next to him: "It's been like this since I was a child!"
"Damn, if he could divide his interpersonal skills in half, it wouldn't be..." Leonard stopped halfway, and looked at the frustrated Rajesh with some guilt.
Martin's series of flattery and sidelined praise made the Kuslapari couple on the computer side very happy, and immediately invited him to travel to India. Give birth to a smart and beautiful son in the future.
After hanging up the remote video reluctantly, Martin turned his head to look at Rajesh: "What happened to the blind date you just said?"
"That's it..." Rajesh looked annoyed: "They gave my phone to a long-time friend's daughter and asked me to meet her on the weekend... I clearly have a plan of my own. …"
Sheldon said on the sidelines: "From the perspective of Indian tradition, parents have a lot of decision-making power in their children's marriage..."
Martin shrugged: "Why don't you go take a look? Maybe it's a very beautiful girl!"
"But I don't even have the ability to talk to girls now..."
Rajesh usually looks normal, but when he encounters beautiful women, he is nervous and speechless. This is his old problem, and even Penny, who is familiar enough to play games together, is no exception.
"Well, let's think about it, there's always a way." Martin stood up and loosened his tie.
At this time, the opposite Penny came running: "Hi! Friends...Martin, glad you are also...I successfully persuaded the manager to transfer me from the waiter to the bar, I need to practice adjusting Wine, can you come and give me some advice?"
"A gentleman will not refuse any request from a beautiful woman!"
Howard, feeling good about himself, stood up.
Since getting to know Martin, Howard has been trying to learn how he communicates and dresses, but always looks a bit nondescript...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When Martin got dressed and went to the apartment opposite, Leonard and Rajesh had already been drinking, Sheldon was ignored by Penny because he only wanted Diet Coke, and Howard angered Penny because of his unsuccessful flirting skills. .
"Okay, let's officially skip you...Martin, what would you like to drink?"
"Pure Martini!" Martin sat down at the table: "If I didn't become a lawyer, I might go to the British Intelligence Service for an interview..."
"Thank goodness! Finally someone ordered a normal cocktail!"
Penny, dressed in cool clothes, sighed with her hands up, and then picked up the ingredients on the table: "Let's see what we need... dry gin... vermouth... .Sorry Martin, we may not have olives."
"Never mind, your beauty is sweeter than olives."
Martin raised an eyebrow.
Penny was overjoyed when she heard the compliment: "Martin, your mouth is always so sweet..."
"Want to try it? I just had a mint before I came..."
The two kissed lightly.
This is just a normal physical contact between friends, and it doesn't contain emotion or other ingredients, but it's enough to stun several other people.
"It's not fair!" Howard, who was skipped just now, quit: "Is Martin any different from what I said before?"
"Hey, Howard, no girl is happy because you admire their boobs, okay?"
Penny snarled while mixing drinks.
Martin tilted his head and spread out his hands in a helpless gesture.
"What should I do?" Rajesh interjected, holding a green cocktail: "I'm going to have a blind date this weekend, and I don't even know what that girl looks like..."
Penny handed the prepared pure martini to Martin: "Rajesh, if you can put the date in the restaurant where I work, I can help you..."
"Sounds like a good idea..." Rajesh looked a little drunk: "You know, I don't even have the ability to talk to a girl normally now, she will definitely think I'm a fool, maybe I will also blame my parents..."
A few other people, you look at me and I look at you, and they all feel a little weird.
Penny probed cautiously: "But aren't you talking to me now?"
"Yeah, I'm talking to you..." Rajesh said sullenly. "I've foreseen a rough weekend..."
Everyone else looked at Rajesh.
Rajesh finally reacted: "I...I'm actually chatting with you? My Lord Shiva..."
After some discussion, the credit goes to the green cocktail.
"This is the potion!" Rajesh held the cocktail like a gem: "I can finally have a girlfriend normally!"
Martin frowned and approached Penny: "To be honest, I don't think it's a good idea."
"There's no other way, is there?" Penny shook her head indifferently. "Don't worry, I'll take care of him."
"How about... I'll go take a look too?" Martin never dared to disturb the plot easily, but he never let go of the opportunity to watch the excitement.
"Do you think you stand with Rajesh, does he still have a chance to meet girls?"
Penny looked up and down at Martin, who was still handsome in casual clothes.
"I'll think you're a compliment to me!"
Martin raised his eyebrows regretfully.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On the weekend, except for Martin, who stayed in the apartment to bask in the sun and read novels, all the others were dispatched to escort Rajesh's blind date.
But in the evening, they came back again dejected.
Martin wasn't expecting a good outcome this time, but he didn't expect that it was Sheldon who screwed up the date.
"He said that her eyes are like stars in the sky, and her delicate skin is like a flowing Ganges...Leading monkeys to successfully resist human oppression..."
"Wait!" Martin interrupted Rajesh's complaint with a puzzled hand, "Monkey? What the hell is this?"
"Princess Pandara!" The only elated Sheldon answered immediately: "Do you believe it, Rajesh's blind date is like Princess Pandala, the one from the Hindu mythology we read when we were kids, do you remember ?"
"It's not about the princess, why are you flirting with Rajesh's blind date?"
Leonard said weakly, "You screwed up the date!"
Sheldon is a little unclear, but Martin is thoughtful: "Guys, don't you think Sheldon's method is suitable for you?"
"Um?"
Everyone looked at Martin suspiciously.
Martin shook his head: "Didn't you guys keep complaining about not being able to strike up a conversation with girls normally? Why don't you follow Sheldon's example, imagine the person you strike up with as a character you like, and then express your love for this character..."
"I see!" Howard reacted the fastest, running out and practicing in advance.
"Your body curves as graceful as the Hulk..."
Martin slapped his forehead with one hand: "I think we need to call an ambulance for him in advance..."
