Chapter 362: Feng Tianlan’s Views on Love

After hearing what Luo Yunzhu had said, Feng Tianlan looked up at her and asked, “What if two men were willing to die for you at the same time? Would you love them both?”

Luo Yunzhu’s expression darkened. She glared at Feng Tianlan and said, “Fine. It looks like you’re still not going to open up.”

What kind of ridiculous question was that?!

To even meet one man willing to die for her, a girl would have to offer incense for eight lifetimes. What to speak of two? Luo Yunzhu dared not even dream of it!

“Yunzhu, I really don’t know what it means to love someone. I used to think that I understood, but then …” Feng Tianlan looked away. She felt a chill in her bones when she thought about how, in her previous lifetime, Jiang Ying had smiled as he’d peeled the skin off her face.

Luo Yunzhu anxiously asked, “What? What happened later?”

“When someone is extremely nice to you, the feelings you have for that person may not actually be genuine.” Feng Tianlan looked down as she thought about the feelings she’d had for Jiang Ying. When she thought about it now, she realized that she probably hadn’t ever really like him in that way at all.

“If that’s not liking someone, then what is it? Is it the feeling that you mentioned earlier? Feeling moved? Grateful? But that’s all liking someone, right? Otherwise, what is?”

Feng Tianlan went quiet for a while. Finally, she confessed, “I don’t know. But for me, I feel that liking someone means that, even if I’m all battered and hurt, the moment you mentioned him, I would still like him and love him uncontrollably.”

But she didn’t have those kinds of feelings for Jiang Ying. All she felt was hate, and even that hate had not arisen because someone she loved had deceived her. The bigger issue was that someone she had trusted had betrayed her.

“Liking someone like that is too lowly. It doesn’t suit you,” Luo Yunzhu replied. Tianlan was too bold and too proud. She assumed that, even if Tianlan fell in love with someone, the romance would be flashy and dramatic, not lowly like this.

Feng Tianlan smiled faintly. “When someone is willing to give up his own principles for another, to go against his ethical boundaries, then that’s probably true love.”

Luo Yunzhu used her slightly numb leg to step on the floor a few times. “Isn’t that what His Highness has done?”

From her point of view, the Wargod had really given up his principles and defied his ethics for Tianlan. He had gone from avoiding contact with all women to going only near Tianlan. He had clearly pushed through his boundaries in so many ways. Unquestionably, His Highness truly loved Tianlan, right?
