Leonard's Surprise

Long Island, New York.

Beep!

Adam rang the doorbell of the Green Family Villa.

Who is it?

"Hello Mrs. Green, I am Adam Duncan."

"Oh, it's Adam."

The door opened, and a very well-maintained middle-aged woman greeted us with a smile, saying, "Please come in."

In the United States, it is considered very impolite to show up at someone's home without an appointment.

Adam would never make that mistake.

Last night I went to Hartford and called Leonard and Leonard respectively to confirm the visit itinerary.

"Mrs. Green..."

"Just call me Sandra."

Rachel's mother is very kind.

"Sandra, I went hunting during spring break, and this is some venison that I just caught today. It's very fresh, so I thought I'd bring it over for you to try."

Adam looked around the house and laughed.

This is a proper villa, and it is decorated very luxuriously.

No wonder Amy, the second daughter of the Green Family, looked disgusted when she went to Ross's apartment. "There's not a single one on the second floor, only two rooms. How can you guarantee privacy when making phone calls?"

"You're so kind."

Sandra took the specially packaged box and put it in her freezer. She looked Adam over carefully and praised him, "I've heard Leonard and Rachel mention you before. Now that I've finally met you, why don't you stay for dinner tonight?"

"No, thank you."

Adam politely declined, saying, "I have other things to do and have made plans with others. I'll definitely come next time. I'm really looking forward to your cooking."

"You are Adam!"

Just then, a girl of about fourteen or fifteen years old appeared on the second floor, looking down at them with an arrogant expression.

"Hi, I'm Adam, you must be Jill, right?"

Adam looked up and greeted him with a smile.

Hi~

When Jill, the youngest daughter of the Green Family, saw Adam look up and reveal a righteous face, her arrogance immediately vanished. She strode downstairs, walked up to him, and stared at Adam with surprise and delight.

"Jill!"

Sandra scolded playfully, "Don't be so rude."

"What's wrong?"

Jill wasn't afraid of her mother at all, and continued, "Adam, do you have a girlfriend?"

"I guess so."

Adam, fearing that Jill might volunteer himself, quickly stopped him from speaking.

"If it exists, it exists; if it doesn't exist, it doesn't exist. What does it mean to count as having something?"

Jill snorted unhappily, "Ha! I know, you must have Italian Comrade-in-Arms, right?"

"..."

Adam's lips twitched, speechless.

United States girls really do mature early.

He knows everything!

"Okay, I'll pretend you don't exist! I can be your girlfriend!"

Jill then said with a grin, "How is it? Happy, right?"

Adam remained silent.

happy?

What's there to be happy about!

I even rejected your eldest sister Rachel, who is the most beautiful in your family, let alone you.

"Jill!"

Sandra was getting angry.

This arrogant little daughter is being extremely rude.

"Okay, okay, I was just kidding."

As the youngest daughter, Jill was the most favored, but she was also the most adept at reading people's expressions. Seeing that her mother was truly angry, she immediately changed her tune. "I am naturally beautiful, and not just anyone is worthy of me."

After saying that, he ran off.

"I'm sorry, Adam, Jill was very rude."

Sandra said apologetically.

"It doesn't matter."

Adam laughed and said, "All little girls are like that. I'm sure Rachel was like that when she was little too, right?"

"Um."

Upon hearing about her most beloved and proudest eldest daughter, Sandra immediately laughed, "Rachel was just as mischievous when she was little, Leonard and I had a lot of trouble dealing with her..."

Adam listened with a smile as Sandra recounted Rachel's childhood anecdotes, nodding frequently and offering perfectly timed agreement, making it impossible for Sandra to stop talking.

She was pampered by her father during her teenage years, attended sorority college, and moved into her husband's house immediately after graduation, making her the quintessential wealthy housewife.

After more than 20 years, she had grown tired of this kind of life, and with her three daughters all grown up, she longed for the outside world.

Adam, such a handsome young man, was willing to listen to her carefully, which gave her an unprecedented feeling and made her feel very fond of Adam.

Therefore, she repeatedly invited Adam to stay.

However, Adam declined.

The goal of deepening his relationship with Leonard has been achieved, and there is no need for him to stay on purpose.

And he's going to visit Leonard's house later.

Compared to the Green Family, where only Leonard could be of great help to Adam, Adam was more looking forward to the Hofstadter Family, whose entire members were elite geniuses.

New Jersey.

The Hofstadter Family.

"Adam! Adam!"

As soon as Adam arrived at the address Leonard had given him, he saw Leonard already waiting at the door. When he saw Adam's car arrive, Leonard ran over and waved and called out happily.

"Hey, buddy!"

Adam got out of the car, patted Leonard on the shoulder, and greeted him affectionately.

This spring break hunting trip gave Adam a deeper understanding of relationships, and this understanding deepened after he saw Leonard and his teammates' contributions to him through the inventory system.

Compared to Leonard's emphasis on Adam's friendship, Adam had previously shown a clear lack of reciprocation towards Leonard's friendship.

That's why we had this large-scale distribution of venison and the initiative to visit them.

"Buddy?"

Leonard was stunned for a moment, then the corners of his mouth stretched almost to the back of his ears.

The term "buddy" is unusual; it's not usually used by people who aren't very close.

For example, in the original timeline, he would only involuntarily chuckle and utter a laughful "bu~ddy~" when he was stunned by Sheldon's sister Missy 'Missy beauty and figure.

It's a common saying in the East Country: From the moment I first saw your girlfriend (wife, sister, younger sister), I knew I was destined to be your brother.

"How are things?"

Adam took a box of venison from the trunk and walked towards Leonard's house while chatting with Leonard.

"Fine."

Leonard's lips curled into a bitter smile at first, then into a grin.

He is an optimist who has reached the peak of his Queen of Heaven, and he will never lack all kinds of troubles in life. Even with Adam, a famous friend, he cannot get rid of them.

Let me just mention one example.

He can't change his mother!

His mother is his biggest source of trouble.

Other troubles and worries are nothing compared to his mother's.

"I was planning to call my older brother and sister home, but there wasn't enough time. Today is Sunday, and they are all studying at Harvard University."

Leonard was overjoyed by Adam's visit and said repeatedly, "But my mom and dad are both home. My dad said he can't wait to see my best friend, hehe."

"I'm really looking forward to it too."

Adam laughed.

Leonard's father is an anthropologist and one of Leonard's pillars of support. Even though he competes with Leonard for the "Hug Machine," he has indeed had a lot of positive influence on Leonard.

Otherwise, Leonard would never have been able to achieve his peak and perfect form in his Queen of Heaven.

This is a true legend—a man who can live half his life with a female version of Sheldon!
