The next day, Marbury Beach, Los Angeles, West Coast of the United States.

In the living room of a mansion, Alan Harper, who looks dumb and honest, sits on the sofa, looking at the screen of his laptop in disbelief.

His older brother, Charlie Harper, who was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and slacks, yawned and was about to go to the fridge to get some drinks.

At this time, Alan suddenly turned his head and stopped him.

Unexpectedly, Charlie spoke first:

"Martha didn't find her panties when she woke up this morning, and if you see them, throw them in the trash, or Porta will be babbling in my ear when she comes to clean the room."

Alan was stunned on the spot.

"Who's Martha?"

"It's the hot girl I brought back last night, you opened the door for me at the time, and she mistook you for my housekeeper."

Charlie said as he walked into the kitchen, grabbed a bottle of beer from the fridge, and came back looking at his brother with a confused face.

"Don't tell me, you don't remember any of them."

"Of course I do."

Alan emphasized:

"But what does this have to do with me, it wasn't the sheets I rolled with her last night."

Charlie took a sip of wine and corrected casually:

"It's still a little related, to be exact, because we fired the first shot last night on the couch where you were sitting!"

Generous Crab!

Alan quickly stood up, and sure enough, he found a pair of red women's panties in the crack of the sofa he was sitting on.

"Damn, can't you just go back to your bedroom and do this again? Don't forget that there is me and my son in this house. ”

Charlie asked rhetorically as he drank:

"Didn't Jack be sent to Judith by you?"

Alan asked aloud:

"What about me?"

Charlie shrugged and replied:

"I told Martha, you're just a plumber, and you'll leave on your own when you're done fixing the clogged toilet."

Alan looked at his brother dumbfounded.

"So is it so hard to tell someone I'm your brother?"

Charlie replied as a matter of course:

"Nonsense, if others know that I live with my brother, how can I maintain the character of a golden bachelor?"

So I'll go?

Alan wanted to be hard again, but when he thought that he was currently divorced and unemployed, and the house was also taken away by his ex-wife, he could only take his son to join his brother.

Although this kind of life under the fence is very uncomfortable, Alan would rather watch Charlie bring different women back every night to roll the sheets, and he can only hide in his room and be an honest craftsman, and he does not want to move in with his mother.

Although his mother's house is bigger and more luxurious than Charlie's beach house, he has finally come of age and escaped the shadow of his childhood dominated by his mother's poisonous tongue, and Alan definitely does not want to go back to the past and experience it again.

Whether it's Alan or Charlie, they don't like their mother Evelyn very well.

One of the important reasons is that when Evelyn was a child, she had high hopes for the two of them, hoping that Charlie would grow up to be a musician and Alan would grow up to be a doctor.

But in the end, both brothers only partially fulfilled their mother's wish.

Charlie became a saliva song composer.

Alan became a chiropractor.

The two brothers felt that they had deeply disappointed their mother, and they couldn't stand their mother's bitter and vicious sarcasm, so they couldn't wait to stay away from each other at other times except for the other party's trouble or illness.

Alan ended up pinching her nose and threw the panties into the trash.

Charlie sat down at the couch, picked up a copy of this morning's newspaper from the table, and read it.

"Wow, there's big news in New York again."

Alan asked angrily:

"What, the Statue of Liberty was also hit by a plane?"

Charlie put down the newspaper and looked at his brother, and said with a serious expression:

"It's not funny at all!"

Alan had no choice but to apologize, and at the same time pretended to be curious and asked Charlie what big news was happening in New York.

"The heroine of "Fifty Shades of Grey" has changed again!"

"What?"

Alan looked confused.

Is this the big news you're talking about?

Charlie asked rhetorically in a natural tone:

"Didn't I tell you that I'm not interested in political and economic news at all, I have always only read the entertainment section of the newspaper, and what I just told you is already the biggest news on the entertainment page today."

Alan put his hand on his forehead, a convincing expression that was defeated by Charlie.

Charlie's voice continued to ring.

"So shouldn't you ask, why again?"

Alan had no choice but to repeat the sentence again.

Charlie then replied satisfied:

"Previously, it was reported in the media that Paris Hilton would play the heroine of "Fifty Shades of Grey", and I wrote a song for her before."

"Really?"

Alan pretended to be shocked on his face, but in fact, he was very disdainful.

I thought you slept with Paris Hilton!

Alan then asked again.

"So Paris Hilton isn't acting now?"

Charlie nodded.

"The newspaper said that a good friend of Paris Hilton, who seems to be named Kim Kardashian or something, inadvertently revealed in an interview with reporters that Paris Hilton had no intention of starring in "Fifty Shades of Grey" at all.

Alan couldn't help but ask:

"What was the news before that?"

Charlie looked at his stupid brother with some sympathy.

"Can't you even see that? This is obviously a hype of Paris and the crew of "Fifty Shades of Grey", including this Kim Kardashian standing up to expose this matter, which is also a hype. ”

Alan nodded, indicating that he understood.

Charlie suddenly became interested and asked Alan what he understood.

Alan replied in the affirmative:

"You slept with that Kim Kardashian!"

Wang Defa!?

Charlie's eyes widened as he looked at his brother.

Alan spread his hands.

"Or you explain it like this, do you know that Kim Kardashian is hype?"

Charlie broke the big defense on the spot and asked Allen:

"Do you think I'm a guy who only thinks with my lower body?"

Alan shrugged.

"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

Charlie blackfaced on the spot.

"Shut up!"

Alan obediently closed his mouth, but only a few seconds later, he couldn't hold back and added.

"All I can say is that your self-awareness is quite in place."

Charlie didn't want to discuss the topic with Allen anymore and continued to pick up the newspaper and read it.

Alan's mouth moved.

was interrupted by Charlie just now, and he forgot what he was going to say when he just stopped Charlie.

That's right, laptops!

Alan picked up his laptop and turned the screen to Charlie, who was covering his face with a newspaper.

"Two days ago I learned about a website on someone else's recommendation, WeHouse, where you can rent all the houses you can think of, from ordinary apartments to centuries-old castle estates, as long as you can afford it."

Charlie continued to look at the newspaper and replied without looking up:

"Do you want to move out with Jack? It's great. ”

Allen retorted loudly:

"I'm not moving out! I'm so poor now, do you think I have the money to go out and rent someone else's big house? ”

Charlie knew that this would be the result, and kindly reminded him:

"Don't forget, you're living in someone else's big house!"

Alan looked at Charlie angrily:

"So you're trying to collect rent from me?"

Charlie came directly.

"The question is, do you have any money?"

Alan's mouth moved.

Well, he really doesn't have any money!

"Don't interrupt me, okay? I just searched for Marbury Beach luxury homes for rent on WeHouse and guess what I found? ”

Charlie still looked indifferent, leaning on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, and continued to read the newspaper.

Allen, who was miserably ignored, had no choice but to protest loudly:

"Don't fool yourself by pretending you don't know anything, I actually found your house on WeHouse with two empty rooms for rent, what, do you want to kick me and Jack out?"

I thought that Charlie would at least pretend to quibble, but I didn't expect him to admit it directly.

"That's right, I listed the rental information on WeHouse, you have no idea how popular WeHouse is now, and all the beautiful girls I met in the bar are talking about this site."

Alan looked puzzled.

"So what?"

Charlie prompted:

"You certainly didn't look closely at my rental requirements on WeHouse, did you? It is only for women between the ages of 18 and 35, and they must submit a real photo of themselves to the homeowner for review before renting. ”

Alan turned the laptop screen back to see that it was.

He looked up in surprise, questioning whether Charlie's request could really attract tenants.

Charlie, who was reading the newspaper, spoke first:

"So I cut my rent by 50 percent."

Wang Defa!

Alan couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

Charlie didn't care about this, and continued to tell Alan that this trick was very effective.

Until last night, he had received six applications to rent a house.

It's a pity that the applicant is either too fat or has too correct skin color, and it's not Charlie's cup of tea anyway.

Alan followed up and asked:

"If someone does pass your review, will Jack and I have to go out and sleep on the street?"

Charlie flipped the page of the newspaper in his hand and replied casually:

"Don't bother, you can send Jack to Judith then, and you can sleep in my room, but the next morning, you'll have to pretend to be here for the night!"

Although he didn't have to pretend to be a plumber this time, Allen's mind didn't turn for a while.

He slept in Charlie's room, so where did Charlie sleep?

"Is there any need to ask? Of course I slept with a hot girl who rented a house. Charlie replied with a sense of urgency.

Alan followed up and asked:

"What if two girls come to rent at the same time?"

"Then divide it into the first half of the night and the second half of the night, of course, if they don't mind talking together, I'm okay with that."

Alan was directly speechless.

WeHouse, which is good, was actually played by Charlie as a website for fishing girls.

I thought that the topic was over here, but I didn't expect Charlie to suddenly put down the newspaper in his hand, looked up at Alan and asked:

"How's your job going?"

Mr. Allen shrugged in frustration and said he had sent dozens of job emails, three of which had been answered by three companies.

Charlie said sympathetically.

"Oh, that's too bad."

What do you mean?

Alan looked puzzled, he hadn't said the result yet!

Charlie shrugged and asked rhetorically:

"Is there a difference between saying the result and not saying it?"

Alan suddenly stood up as if he had been insulted, ready to retort Charlie's words in a righteous manner.

Charlie also looked at Alan with his hands folded, ready to be refuted.

As a result, when the words came to his lips, Alan suddenly withered like a deflated ball, and sat back on the sofa depressed.

"That's right, all three companies that wrote back to me rejected my job application, and now you can laugh at me as much as you want."

Charlie uncharacteristically sat beside Allen, put his arm around his shoulders and comforted:

"Don't be discouraged, brother, I'm sure you'll be able to get a job again."

Alan looked at Charlie with a wary expression.

After only half a bottle of beer, you're already drunk like this?

Charlie picked up the newspaper he had just read from the table.

"I just read in the newspaper about a job that suits you perfectly, the only problem is that it's in New York."

Alan lost interest for a moment.

Charlie immediately added.

"But the basic salary offered by the other party is 20,000 US dollars, not including commissions, and even I am a little moved."

Without saying a word, Alan snatched the newspaper from Charlie's hand and found the job posting Charlie had mentioned.

After reading the ten lines at a glance, Alan looked up in shock and looked at Charlie.

Charlie guessed what Alan wanted to say, and spoke first:

"Well, it's a great job, isn't it?"

Alan wanted to swear on the spot.

That's right, the job postings in the newspapers do do have very attractive payouts, as Charlie said.

But people are recruiting TV shopping hosts!

The following application conditions are clearly written, candidates need to have good acting skills, but they are specifically required to be good at playing that kind of scumbag.

Alan pointed to the job posting in the newspaper and asked Charlie.

"Which one do you think I meet the requirements of this recruitment?"

Charlie replied very frankly:

"You really don't meet any of them, but it doesn't matter, because there is a professional sitting in front of you, I can teach you how to act before applying, you only need to learn a little bit of skin, and there is absolutely no problem in passing the interview!"

Alan looked at Charlie suspiciously.

"Didn't you write saliva advertising songs? When did you learn acting? ”

Charlie shrugged and replied:

"Although I haven't studied acting, many people who know me say that it's a pity that I don't want to be an actor!"

Alan asked angrily:

"You haven't even studied acting, and you want to teach me how to act?"

Charlie immediately shook his head and corrected:

"No, no, of course I'm not trying to teach you acting, but how to be a qualified scumbag!"

Alan froze directly.

Charlie said it so justifiably that Alan couldn't refute it.

"Okay, don't hesitate any longer, I'll go book a ticket."

Alan hesitated and asked:

"And what about Jack?"

Zha Li didn't even want to answer:

"Just enough to get him to stay with Judith for a few more days, and if you're successful, he'll probably have to go with you to New York."

Alan looked at Charlie in disbelief.

Although there is no evidence.

But Alan seriously suspects that Charlie is so eager to help him find a job that he wants him to move out of this villa with Jack.

Charlie and Allen, from the American drama "Two and a Half Heroes", this is a classic, and veteran drivers should have seen it!
