"This... may not be the case." Gu Lan always felt that she had taken advantage. After all, she was already over forty at the time, while Fan Wubing was only fifteen.
"No wonder Elder Weiyu protected you so well." Fu Manman couldn't help but comment, "Though she protected you too well."
Gu Lan felt like crying, "Manman Junior Sister, saying that makes me a bit sad."
Fu Manman laughed,
"Purity isn't a flaw, but a rare asset. Countless people in the world long for your kind of purity, but their hearts have long been stained by the clutter of dust and filth." She somewhat understood that Wubing perhaps admired Senior Sister Gu Lan for that very purity.
Gu Lan didn't quite grasp Fu Manman's words; she thought she hadn't done anything, just simply doing the things she loved.
She loved farming, and sometimes just being in the fields all day doing nothing made her happy.
She loved Fan Wubing, and sometimes just thinking of him would make her smile involuntarily.
