Chapter 548: Twenty-eighty: Love of Liren! Rescue Liren!_2
Yan Ping roared in anger, "You’re lying, you’re lying! My humor, my gentleness, my profound knowledge deeply attracted her. She fell in love with me because of these attributes."
Suo Lun shook his head and said, "Then I’m sorry, but I’m gentler, more profound, and funnier than you. Most crucially, I’m a hundred times more handsome than you, yet she has no interest in me whatsoever. It seems these are not the elements that attract her."
"You’re spouting nonsense, you’re spouting nonsense..." Yan Ping kept repeating angrily.
Suo Lun looked at Ashi Liren and said, "Miss Liren, we are all common people, all with our emotions and desires, and we haven’t been castrated of these functions."
Some people had indeed been castrated of their emotions and desires, like the Zhen Yan Princess and most of the virgins from the Dragon Temple.
"Therefore, the origin of our human love is vulgar, which is the desire to mate and procreate," Suo Lun said. "Of course, this desire is not just about appearance, physique, but also temperament, substance, and so on. And you, towards Yan Ping, have not the slightest urge to mate. Hence, you resist his touch not because of a particular aversion to uncleanliness, but because you do not truly love him. He has no physical attraction to you."
Suo Lun emphasized these points in order to completely liberate Ashi Liren’s spirit, to thoroughly overthrow the assertion that she loved Yan Ping.
There was another purpose, and that was to buy time.
Ashi Liren, looking at Suo Lun, suddenly said, "Then why do I feel so blissful every time I recall my moments with Yan Ping? Why does the thought of his death bring me such intense pain?"
"That’s because of guilt, because you’ve always known that it was Ashi Luo who killed Yan Ping, and you just didn’t want to admit it. Moreover, Ashi Luo killed the entire Yan family for your sake; you believe that Yan Ping died because of you, so you are driven to despair. If it were due to affection, with your personality, you would have already taken your own life for love," Suo Lun said.
Suo Lun’s words were despicable and utterly shocking.
