On this day, Locke invited a group of people from the romance of his parents to drink and chat.

Locke arrived first, and was chatting with Matthew, when he saw Barney, dressed in a suit, walk in, and he deliberately said in an exaggerated tone: "This is not Mr. Barney Stinson who is unprincipled." ”

"Did something happen?" Ted sensed the problem and quickly asked.

"Do real friends casually pry into the corners of their friends?" Locke emphasized: "At the wedding the day before yesterday. ”

"Ahem." Barney was a little embarrassed, but then said, "I just had some feelings and blurted out, and I didn't really want to do it." ”

"That's Caroline ignoring you." Locke's tone was serious: "But if you see the slightest opportunity, I'm afraid you won't give up." ”

"Barney, you've gone too far." When Lily beside Matthew heard this, she immediately got angry.

"Yes, Barney, you're going too far, apologize to Locke." Matthew followed suit.

"Well, it was my mistake and I apologize." Seeing this, Barney had no choice but to apologize.

"I don't think you're sincere in what you're saying." Locke glanced at Barney, and without ingesting divine thoughts, he could know that he was just casually saying, this kind of extreme ego, without giving him a profound lesson, will not be honest.

So he said what he had prepared: "I heard that you like challenges, why don't we play a game?" ”

"Locke, what are you doing here?" Ted saw that the two of them had-for-tat intentions, and hurriedly persuaded him.

"Don't worry about Ted, Barney Stinson loves a challenge." Barney was also intrigued at this time: "Just let the horses come." ”

"Then choose your most proud project to pick up girls, for a month, every night you choose beauties, after I confirm, let's go to talk together, whoever succeeds the most times, who wins."

"Are you sure?" Barney's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Sure enough, you and I are the same kind of people, so what's the bet?" ”

"It's simple, the loser has to say to the winner a hundred times that I was wrong." Locke said: "One more thing, except for the selected beauty, you can't find any other woman during the game, no woman. ”

"Are you so sure you can win all the time?" Barney instantly understood the problem in this condition, Locke was planning to make him not touch a woman for a month.

For a person like him, even if there is no woman for a day, he will not be able to sleep, and a month is definitely a great torment.

"No problem." With Barney's pride, it is naturally impossible to show weakness, especially in the field where he is most confident, so he agreed.

"So starting today?" Locke laughed.

"That's it." Barney clapped his hands excitedly: "I believe this is definitely a legendary bet." ”

"It's interesting." Lily didn't know what associations had at this time, and her eyes were a little wandering.

"Then let's start, choose people first, you come first, if you succeed, leave for a while, and I'll go again." Locke said, "Of course, if you fail, replace me." ”

"What if both of you don't succeed?" Matthew couldn't help but ask.

"Please~" Locke gave him a look, since he made a move, how could he fail.

"That's it." Barney puffed up his chest very confidently, and his eyes wandered around the bar, and then motioned, "How's the brown-haired girl at the bar?" ”

"No problem." Locke glanced at it, confirmed that his appearance and figure were good, and nodded in approval, he was really afraid that Barney, a guy who is not taboo in meat and vegetables, would directly choose an ugly girl, so that both sides would have to confirm it, otherwise Barney would be able to get a mouth, but he couldn't do it.

"You come first!" Barney glanced at Locke and said, "Take it as if I take care of you." ”

"Are you sure?"

"Of course."

"You'll soon regret your decision." Locke walked over.

In less than a minute, Locke had already made a gesture of success, and then turned to go to the bathroom, and the brown-haired girl also picked up her bag, looking like she was about to leave.

"And that worked?" Barney couldn't help but be stunned.

"Looks like you've got a strong enemy." Matthew said.

"No way, everyone knows Locke's charm." Lily's eyes wandered a little as she spoke.

"Hurry up Barney, or you'll lose." Ted hurriedly reminded at this time.

Compared with Locke, who met halfway, several people still prefer Barney.

"That's right." Barney also reacted, quickly tidied up his suit, picked up the wine glass and walked over, with a decent smile: "Hi, I'm Barney." ”

"Go aside, my boyfriend will be here right away." The brown-haired beauty looked disgusted, and she didn't mean to pay attention to him at all.

Barney was stunned, it was the first time he had encountered this situation, and the two of them had only chatted for less than two minutes just now, and they started to drive people away so resolutely?

After a while, Locke reappeared and led the people away, and Barney returned to his seat, squinting, but not frustrated, but smiling, and he felt that the game was getting more and more interesting, until ......

"Get out of here!"

"Get out of the way!"

"Let's lie to the other girls!"

For the next few nights, Barney was hit one after another, and he no longer had the confidence he had at the beginning, and even had some depression.

"I'll come first this time!" It wasn't until Ted reminded him that the first strike was important, and Barney decided to swap the order in which to pick up Locke.

These days have passed, and Barney has to admit that Locke is a top master like him, so today he is extra serious.

"No problem." Locke was noncommittal.

"Have you seen Barney?" Barney used the most common routine, and of course without Ted's cooperation, he seemed to be talking to himself.

The blonde girl was a little strange, but seeing that Barney was extraordinary, she still smiled and stretched out her hand: "Emma." ”

Soon, Barney amused the girl so much that he even performed a magic trick, which made the girl excitedly chase him and ask about the magic routine, and soon after, he made a successful gesture, and this time Barney was confident that he would not fail.

"Looks like Barney won this game." Ted smiled at Locke.

"Not necessarily." Locke smiled and took a sip of his wine, and when Barney was out for a moment, he got up and walked over.

Just said hello, and this Emma showed a nymphomaniac gaze, and the super high charm value was vividly reflected.

In just a few words, Emma was in a posture of leaving with Locke, and as for who Barney was, she had long since forgotten.

"Barney, I still have something, we'll talk about it next time." Waiting for Barney to return, Emma took Locke's arm and prepared to leave.

“NO！” Watching the two of them leave blankly, Barney was stunned for a moment before he shouted unwillingly.

In the days that followed, Barney was completely in a nightmare, constantly taking blows in the area he was most proud of, and the accumulated hormones made him feel like he was going to explode.

A month became the longest period of his life, and until the end, he even had a sense of relief, admitting defeat to Locke with a lost face, and saying sorry a hundred times in front of everyone.

Watching Barney leave in despair, Lily said, "Shall we comfort him?" ”

"Don't worry, he's Barney Stinson." Locke smiled and said: "And for a month, the most important thing for him is to release it well, you don't think he will find a place to cry alone, just hope he won't become a fast gunner tonight." ”

A few people thought about Barney's usual style, and they also felt that what Locke said made sense.

And Locke only hopes that this small method he heard about in his last life can allow Barney to learn a lesson, and don't stretch out the hand that shouldn't be extended, otherwise, he will use physical means next time.
