236 The Perfect Couple (2/2)

Su Yan nodded but couldn't help and frown a little. ”That's true. So you think that the compatibility of a couple, would change each week? That doesn't sound very logical to me.”

Nie Chang really wanted to shake his head. Of course, it didn't sound logical if he said it like that! He had made that up on the spot and Su Yan's explanation made it sound even more ridiculous. But, well, this week could probably serve as an explanation for next to everything. After all, a lot had happened. Mn, that might actually suffice as an explanation for Su Yan.

”That's not it. But sometimes there can be more things changing in one week than they changed in a whole year before. Just look at us or maybe even just yourself: You resigned from your old job, went to work for an old friend, went on a date with the said friend and became his boyfriend. Now you're even thinking of moving in together with me. That's a lot, isn't it?”

”Well … I guess so?” Su Yan still looked skeptical. How was this supposed to influence their compatibility? ”You wouldn't think that there are extra percentages for actual couples, would you? I feel like that would have been cheating. Then I could have just asked around who is already together and would have finished the task easily.”

Nie Chang sighed, looped one arm around Su Yan's waist and grabbed the tandem again with the other. They probably wouldn't get to admire the park anytime soon. Su Yan's thoughts were all over the place. There was no way he could concentrate on anything else. They might as well leave the pond and make their way through the park slowly.

Su Yan wasn't at all satisfied with how long his boyfriend took to answer one simple question. ”Ah Chang!” He called out and tugged at his sleeve, demanding more of his attention.

”I heard you, darling. I was just … considering this.”

”What's there to consider? I don't think your idea was very good this time. Maybe you don't really know the system after all.”

Nie Chang smiled wryly. He had never said that he did, had he? Well, never mind that. ”I don't think it does either. I was wondering how to explain my thoughts to you. You see I think that with everything we experience we change a bit. So maybe we and our compatibility with us changed because we experienced so many things over this week.”

”Hm …” Su Yan also pondered the issue. This explanation didn't sound as far-fetched as the one from before but he wasn't completely happy with it either. Who knew just how much would need to change for the system to finally admit that they were the perfect couple.

Nie Chang smiled at his skeptical look and ruffled his hair. ”Who knows? Maybe … the system just miscalculated.”
