What you said is ordinary, but it is not so ordinary.

The girl was very talkative, speaking in a very organized and logical manner.

From the first point to the eighth point, she listed everything clearly for him.

Xu Ning fell silent.

Xu Jiafei fell silent.

The netizens in the live stream also fell silent.

For a moment, the atmosphere became eerily quiet.

Xu Ning scratched his head, then scratched it again, unable to stop scratching.

Because the absurdity in his heart had made him speechless.

Especially the girl's last sentence: she was just an ordinary girl, so finding an ordinary person would be fine.

This made Xu Ning almost doubt his life.

Do you even hear yourself?

The key was that he saw the girl's face was genuinely calm, as if the conditions she listed were truly ordinary.

Xu Ning finally understood why so many eligible young men were still single.

Of course, part of it was due to the men themselves.

But on the women's side, sometimes it was truly outrageous.

Some fantasized about changing their fate through marriage, like women who proposed many ridiculous criteria for a partner.

And another part, should be like the girl in front of him.

She might genuinely have a lack of self-awareness!

Perhaps she truly believed that the conditions she proposed were ordinary.

She completely didn't understand that those who could meet her "ordinary" conditions were one in a million, absolute hot commodities in the marriage market.

They wouldn't even fall onto the marriage market; they would have already been snapped up by discerning girls.

In the live stream, the netizens, having recovered, couldn't hold back.

"Good heavens, these requirements are truly ordinary, so ordinary that I don't meet a single one!"

"I thought my conditions were pretty good, but here with Miss, I'm far from even 'ordinary'!"

"I just want to know how many people in the entire Imperial Capital can meet all of Miss's conditions!"

"Looking at Miss's confident expression, I feel like she might genuinely believe this, and isn't intentionally setting such outrageous conditions."

"Whether it's intentional or not, she's destined to be single her whole life, becoming a Nun!"

"No wonder I can't find a partner; if everyone thought like her, humanity would probably go extinct."

...Perhaps Xu Ning's reaction made the girl notice, and she looked at Xu Ning with wide, puzzled eyes.

"What's wrong?"

"Is it because you just opened, so you don't have many resources on hand?"

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, I can wait!"

She was quite understanding.

Xu Ning couldn't help but smile bitterly; he felt he had an obligation to correct Miss's strange perception.

"Um, Miss, putting everything else aside, let me first help you filter through using data calculation."

"First, the Imperial Capital currently has a permanent population of 22 million, with males accounting for half, 11 million."

"And you didn't specify the other party's age, so we'll choose a range based on your age, 28-38 years old."

"The population proportion in this age group is roughly 17%-18%; let's calculate it as 18%, which is about 2 million."

"The average height for adult males in the Imperial Capital is 175 cm. If you require over 180 cm, calculating based on 15% of the population being over 180 cm, that eliminates another 1.7 million, leaving only 300,000."

"Then, calculating your requirement of an annual income exceeding 300,000, even if we assume an exaggerated 20% can meet this, that only leaves 60,000 people."

"According to national statistics, adult males who neither smoke nor drink account for less than 25%, which leaves 15,000 people."

"Among these 15,000 people, how many are civil servants or state-owned enterprise management?"

"Not to mention you also require them to have a house in the Imperial Capital, a good personality, and be able to do housework..."

"After filtering all your conditions, there are probably only a few dozens of people in the entire Imperial Capital who meet your partner selection requirements!"

"While the calculation won't be perfectly accurate, it's roughly correct."

"Even if you're lucky enough to meet these few dozens of people, they are absolutely the most sought-after individuals in the marriage market. Are you sure you can compete with those girls who are excellent in all aspects?"

"If you don't change your perception of 'ordinary,' our matchmaking studio definitely can't help you."

"In fact, it can be said that no dating website or matchmaking agency can meet your demands."

"No matter how grand their promises, they are only trying to coax money out of your pocket, nothing more."

...After a long speech, Xu Ning felt parched and quickly took a sip of tea to ease his throat.

The girl, however, was stunned by Xu Ning's words; she had probably never considered that her "eight standards" combined would have such a terrifying isolating effect.

Although she lacked awareness, she wasn't foolish.

Even if Xu Ning's calculation method wasn't entirely precise, as he said, any discrepancy wouldn't be too significant.

If only a few hundred or even a few dozen men in the entire Imperial Capital met her standards, then she also knew how difficult it would be to find a partner.

"Then what should I do?" the girl asked anxiously, her face paling.

"You can only lower your standards, there's no other way!" Xu Ning shrugged and joked, "Or you can choose to stay single."

Actually, the girl's own conditions were indeed good, and having more requirements in a relationship wasn't excessive.

But you can't be blind and completely unaware.

"For your eight standards, you can list them in order of importance in your heart."

"For example, if the most important is over 180 cm, and anything below that height is absolutely unacceptable, then put it first."

"For example, whether some conditions can be removed or moderately relaxed, you should consider that yourself."

Hearing Xu Ning's words, the girl fell into deep thought, clearly considering which of her conditions she could relax.

In the live stream, discussions were now lively.

"Miss is really different from those who dream of marrying above their station."

"I think she can remove the civil servant requirement, and also the 180 cm height requirement. These two are too damaging."

"Removing the civil servant requirement is understandable, but why remove the height requirement? Is it because the person above isn't 180 cm and it hurt his ego?"

"Except for not being a civil servant and not having a house in the Imperial Capital, I meet all the other conditions! Miss, would you consider me?"

...Just then, another co-streaming application came into the live stream.

Xu Ning accepted the application and saw a young man's rather sunny face appear on the screen.

"Hello, streamer!"

"Hello, Miss!"

The young man greeted them politely with a smile.

Xu Ning asked somewhat suspiciously, "Do you also want to find a partner online? Or..."

"I'm a bit attracted to Miss."

"And my conditions are pretty good; although I can't fully meet Miss's requirements, I still have something to offer."

"So, I came to co-stream and give it a try!"
