Chapter 1621: The State Preceptor’s Request (2)
Under such circumstances, Sheng’er was willing to protect her like this, then naturally, she would do the sa.
She had always been like this. If others treated her well, she would treat them better tenfold. If others treated her badly, she would treat them worse tenfold or a hundredfold.
These had nothing to do with love, family, and friends. It was who she was.
“Everyone who cares?” The State Preceptor’s expression was filled with yearning and curiosity. How did it feel like to be cared for?
He had never experienced it before, nor was there any way for him to do so. He did not possess any emotions nor desires, so he naturally could not have felt these feelings. But he was curious. What kind of emotions could make a person lower his bottom line again and again.
He glanced at Feng Tianlan who was still kneeling in front of him. “You can get up.”
“That would an you have agreed. I hereby thank you in advance.” She kowtowed again and thanked him before standing up, feeling greatly relieved.
The State Preceptor looked at Feng Tianlan’s reddened forehead and asked, “Do you really believe that I have this ability?”
“Didn’t you force Bi Ling to admit last ti?”
“I was pretending. I was just scaring her,” he replied casually.
“…” Feng Tianlan not only felt pain in her kneecaps, but her hands also itched to give the State Preceptor a thrashing for tricking her into kneeling and kowtowing thrice.
He glanced at her and asked softly, “Why? I lied to you, are you having regrets now?”
For such an arrogant person to not jump and beat him up, it was obvious that she was restraining herself.
“Although I want to beat you up, I don’t regret it because this is my last hope. Even if it’s just a sliver, I’m willing to do it.” Feng Tianlan looked at the tightly shut door. What was there to regret? As long as there was a glimr of hope, no matter how small, she had to give it a try.
But right now, she itched to get her hands on the State Preceptor.
Looking at the frank State Preceptor, she inadvertently laughed out loud. He told her, “I can’t do it now, but that doesn’t an that I can’t do it in the future.”
Feng Tianlan raised her eyebrows and looked at him. Her bright eyes gleaming with hope.
“However, I have a request.”
“What is it? I will do my best to fulfill it.” Feng Tianlan knew that he would not agree to help her so easily. However, it was good that he wanted sothing in exchange, this way, she would not owe him any favor.
It’s easy to repay a debt of money but difficult to repay a debt of gratitude.
“Include in the list of people whom you care about.”
“What?” Feng Tianlan was bewildered by his request. What kind of strange request was this?
The State Preceptor raised his eyebrows. He pretended that she didn’t understand and said emphatically again, “I also want to be soone you care about.”
“Uh…” Feng Tianlan was stunned by his bluntness. Then, she looked at him with a strange expression, “Don’t tell you are attracted to ?”
Otherwise, why would he make such a request?
“Don’t worry, I will never fall for you.” He did not have emotions and desires, he also had not felt feelings like joy, happiness, anger, or sorrow. But recently, it seed that he had co into more contact with these feelings, he had even started to smile a little.
Perhaps this was a change for him, to have so interest in emotions and desires. After all, he had lived for a thousand years without them, without feelings, had not experienced separation and reunion. He was too lonely.
In the past, he had never felt the loneliness. But now that he had co into contact with these emotions and feelings, he beca curious..
