"With such great conditions, she can’t find anyone?" Duanmu Yunji asked, perplexed.
Qin Rubing was confused as well. It doesn’t seem that hard to find someone like that, does it? Could it be she’s extremely unattractive? Five-foot-three and about 200 pounds? If those were the objective conditions, then indeed it would be quite difficult. But if she’s in good condition, she could also find a pretty boy, right?
Ye Bing explained in detail, "Actually, the problem is that my cousin is too awesome. She’s pretty, has a great figure, and a successful career–that’s why she can’t find a boyfriend!"
There’s no flaw in that logic, Luofeng thought. He could understand. Because Ye Bing’s cousin was already thirty years old, which is a very awkward age. Considering her superior conditions, it would probably be uncomfortable for her to find a boy with lesser qualifications, as their values could likely clash. Why would a guy with better conditions choose her? Aren’t pretty girls who are eighteen or twenty more attractive? Let’s not even talk about guys with better conditions; even those who are just slightly inferior might not choose an older woman like her, right?
In the older singles’ dating market, men have greater compatibility. They can merge equally or date down, and even develop upward—there’s no problem at all. But what about women? They almost all aim to date up, a few might merge equally, and very, very few can date down.
But where does the root of the problem actually lie? Luofeng mused. It’s because most men can out-earn women and are more capable, alright? Expecting equality? Doesn’t that leave a ton of women just staring blankly? Because they really just earn a few thousand a month. So, they have to date up! But there should be a limit to dating up, alright? If you’re of average looks, earning a three-thousand monthly salary, and you find someone with an average look but making ten thousand, that’s more or less okay. Such a match, with not much disparity, is actually very comfortable. But you insist on finding someone who earns several tens of thousands a month and is over six feet tall? Isn’t that a bit too much?
In big cities, there are actually a lot of awesome guys. But if a girl’s standards are too high, then there are very few such exceptional guys available. So the situation in big cities is that there are more women than men. Especially in the Capital City, where average guys can’t make it and are forced to move elsewhere. A whole bunch of single women waiting to be chosen.
"By the way, Luo the Immortal, what did you buy today?" Ye Bing asked.
"Just casually looking around. When I saw something they both wanted to buy, I just bought it," Luofeng spoke up.
"Wow, I’m so jealous!" Ye Bing said pitifully. "Luo the Immortal, did you get your female friends a bag when you went shopping with them today?"
"Yeah, of course!" Luofeng said generously.
"That’s great, thanks, Luo the Immortal!" Ye Bing cheered. She walked to Duanmu Yunji’s side, took her other hand, and said, "Luo the Immortal, can you lend them to me? I want to go shopping with them!"
Luofeng let go and said, "Sure, you guys go shopping. I’ll be the cat’s paw, carrying the bags and paying the bills!"
Ye Bing took Luofeng’s place, leading Qin Rubing and Duanmu Yunji by the hands. The three of them quietly chatted.
Mainly, Ye Bing was gossiping about the trio’s relationship. Isn’t it awkward for the three of them? What does it feel like to see another one being intimate with Luofeng?
"No way? Luofeng gave Rubing another apartment at Cloud View?" Ye Bing exclaimed in surprise.
Ye Bing’s family was actually quite well-off. She knew a fair amount of gossip, like some uncle from some family starting another relationship with a girl almost twenty years his junior. But even so, the most they would give is a car worth a million or bags worth tens of thousands. How could they afford to give away a ten-million-dollar luxury apartment? That’s just insane, right?
Duanmu Yunji said, "The suite opposite ours, number 05, Rubing picked it out yesterday. Today, it was registered under Rubing’s ID card. It won’t be long before the Property Certificates come through."
Qin Rubing nodded at the side. "Yeah, that’s exactly it!"
Ye Bing complained, "Rubing, we agreed to advance and retreat together, didn’t we? So, is this keeping a ’hidden beauty’ in gold houses? Two ten-million-dollar apartments?"
Ye Bing continued to complain, "How did you guys get together in the first place? Why did it suddenly turn out like this?"
Qin Rubing showed a smile. What if Luofeng found out it was Ye Bing? What if he really turned serious? In other words, what if it had been Ye Bing in the master bedroom back then? Not Qin Rubing? What choice would Luofeng have made? This question isn’t important, because there is no ’if’.
