"During his pursuit, was he good to you? Answer honestly," Tang Shun asked the second question.
Zhang Huijie’s face flushed slightly, "He was very good, but I didn’t pay him any attention."
"Just answer what I ask. Third question—did you agree to his pursuit or clearly reject him? If you rejected him, how many tis? If you don’t have an exact number, you can give an approximate value, like a few tis, dozens, a hundred, or two hundred tis."
"I clearly rejected him; probably around twenty tis."
"Were you vague or ambiguous at the ti?"
"I was very clear, not ambiguous at all."
"Record that!" Tang Shun continued.
"Was your rejection straightforward, or did you give him a thorough reason?"
"I provided a thorough reason. I told him my standards for a boyfriend and then clearly inford him that apart from his education, which barely t the criteria, he didn’t et any of the other conditions."
"That’s good, very clear, very precise—knowing what you want. You definitely explained it clearly at that ti. I’m worried you didn’t clarify things, and now the data isn’t sufficient for to help solve the problem."
"I have saved all the chat history with him on WeChat over these years. Even when I change phones, I transfer it to the new one, and I have backups."
"That’s perfect. Can you send us screenshots of the chats? Of course, exclude any private parts. I just need the WeChat chat history where you rejected him, especially the record where you specify boyfriend conditions. Wen Ruzheng is really disappointing. Dr. Zhang, you set such high standards, yet when you lower them, he doesn’t even appreciate it."
"Exactly. I even lowered the conditions to give him a chance; what else do you want? I’ll look and send you a screenshot."
"It’s better if you send it to Doctor Lu. I tend to forget things and might easily overlook your WeChat ssage."
"I will send you all the chat records of the twenty rejections, so you can see for yourself. In the past, he was persistent, and now that I’ve offered him a chance, he doesn’t appreciate it at all."
Yang Ping sat nearby, wondering what Tang Shun ant by rambling on. He seed quite full of himself.
"Let’s continue collecting data," Tang Shun said leisurely.
"Based on the previous data, he falls far short of your standards, so your clear rejection of him was reasonable. The gap is too big, right? Now I want to ask—during your twenty rejections, when everything was clear, did you two, outside of an established romantic relationship, share any intimate interactions, like holding hands while shopping, an impulsive kiss, or further substantial deep exchanges? We’re all doctors, so don’t misunderstand; I just want to scientifically clarify so key data between you two so I can devise a solution."
"Well..." Zhang Huijie blushed again, "I never agreed to be his girlfriend, so how could we do that? We’ve never held hands, hugged, or kissed, and certainly not anything further."
"Are you sure? Not even once?"
"No, really none at all. I never agreed to be his girlfriend."
"This part of the data is clear now. You were right to reject him, as Wen Ruzheng indeed falls far short of your standards. Look—he’s seven centiters shorter than you, which is a difference of 3.78%. That’s quite significant. His education only barely matches your criteria, and his economic condition is lacking. He still commutes by scooter, and his ho is rented. No house, no car—what’s he seeking in a girlfriend, let alone thinking of marriage? He’s not qualified."
"I shouldn’t have gone to Director Zhao and Dean Xia; I should have co to you first." Zhang Huijie imdiately felt relieved that soone finally understood her.
"Where did we get in our data collection just now? Based on this data, we can conclude a very clear inference: between you two, there’s no contact of a romantic nature in either a ntal or physical sense. Using ’physical’ might be inappropriate, but don’t mind—I only aim to scientifically analyze and solve problems."
"We’re now entering the third stage of data collection: your demands."
"Actually, my demand is simple. I have lowered my standards to give him a chance; you should help persuade him to break up with his current girlfriend and pursue again. I will definitely agree this ti. I’ve already lowered my standards so much—what more does he want? Is he doing this intentionally to irritate ?"
"Your demand is indeed simple. Dr. Zhang, why would you readily lower your standards? What kind of guy is Wen Ruzheng to be worthy of you? He only fits his current girlfriend; though she is also a PhD, and quite tall, these are just appearances. In terms of substance, she can’t compare to you. I suggest you let him pursue this relationship, because it’s only through comparison that you see distinction. In experints, we often use statistical tools to compare experintal groups and control groups to see if there’s significant statistical difference."
"So, I think you could do the sa now: let him date his current girlfriend without interference, much like in an experint, where disrupting the process could result in data contamination. Once he’s dated for a while, he will naturally compare her to you, and then the statistical differences will manifest—the better aspects of you, the lesser aspects of her. The greater the disparity, the more inclined Wen Ruzheng will be to choose you. He’ll co back to pursue you obediently, won’t he? How do you feel about that?"
