”Alright. Then please come back in two hours. We'll have your notebook fixed until then.”

The woman pouted. ”Can't I wait here?”

”If you prefer that. It might take a while, though.”

”I don't care.”

”Alright.” Nie Chang took the pink notebook and turned to Su Yan. ”Ah Yan, wait a bit, I'll take that to the back and get the others.”

”Mn, alright.” Su Yan watched him leave.

As soon as Nie Chang was through the door, the woman at the counter frowned. ”Hey, you. Don't you see me standing here?”

Su Yan looked over at her. ”Uh … Of course, I do.”

”Then why aren't you offering me that chair? Haven't you heard your boss say that I'll have to wait here for two hours? You can't expect me to stand here the whole time, can you?!”

I'll have to work eight hours, though. That's clearly longer than your time waiting and Nie Chang told you, you could go home. Su Yan complained in his head but since he was an employee starting today he couldn't argue with a customer.

”Oh, I'm sorry. That wasn't very attentive of me.” He stood up and really pushed the chair to the other side of the counter.

The woman sat down with a look of 'It should be like this. Kneel down and serve this princess!' Su Yan inwardly shook his head. She couldn't be rich if she went to a small shop like Nie Chang's to get her notebook repaired and she wasn't that good-looking either.

Mn, speaking of which … He took out his phone and opened the Lovely Writing System. He still hadn't managed to find a hundred couples much less ten with high compatibility. Since all of his deliberations hadn't really gotten him good results maybe he just didn't understand romance. He should try to pair up people he thought wouldn't mix well together. Maybe he'd have some more luck with that?

He thought of Nie Chang and then took another glance at the woman on the other side of the counter.

A row of words once again appeared on the screen: [Processing answer.]

[Processing complete. Calculated compatibility of the chosen couple: 0%]

Su Yan gaped at the result. This … this was even worse than every couple he had considered as compatible before! What was this system thinking?!

Of course, the Lovely Writing System wasn't thinking at all. It was a system, after all, not a human. Instead, it was computing and the probability of a woman getting together with a gay man chasing quite openly after his love interest in a bl novel was … non-existing.
