The Flatterer | 马屁精

点击查看中英对照

Andy's wife, refusing to accept the signs of aging, bought an expensive new line of cosmetics guaranteed to make her look years younger.

After spending a long time in front of the mirror applying the "miracle" products, she asked her husband, "Darling, honestly, if you didn't know me, how old would you say I am?"

Looking her over carefully, Andy replied, "Judging from your skin, twenty; your hair, eighteen; and your figure, twenty-five."

"Oh, you flatterer!" she gushed. Just as she was about to tell Andy his reward, he stopped her by saying...

"Whoa, hold on there, sweetie!" he interrupted. "I haven't added them up yet!"
