My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 780 - 0440 Wen Li’s Understanding of Liking (2-in-1)_3

She wanted to know why these stories could attract Yun Qian so much, so under Yun Qian’s guidance, she simply read some in the study.

And the result.

Wen Li had no feelings about the romance in the books; instead, she was more curious about the swordsmanship mentioned within, such as the techniques of a shepherdess named "Ah Qing," which Yun Qian specifically showed her. Wen Li found it very interesting.

Is it really possible for mortals to achieve that level of swordsmanship?

As for Ah Qing, it was completely glossed over.

"Ah Li, you seem more feminine now, but... you actually still understand nothing." Zhu Pingniang covered her face.

Still a block of wood.

She figured she knew Wen Li’s current state. Wanting her to understand what love is... it’s probably not that easy.

"Don’t understand..." Wen Li finally realized something at this moment. She looked at Zhu Pingniang and shook her head, "Uncle Master, have you misunderstood something?"

At this moment, Wen Li discovered that Zhu Pingniang seemed to regard her as a little girl who knew nothing.

But Zhu Pingniang forgot.

Wen Li was never the type to sit around and do nothing. When she found her feelings towards her junior brother unclear, she naturally went back to take action, to try to understand.

So, she was definitely not the naive girl regarding romantic feelings that Zhu Pingniang thought her to be.

Zhu Pingniang assumed Wen Li’s attitude towards emotions was that of an immature young girl.

"I misunderstood? What do you mean?" Zhu Pingniang also reacted, speaking with surprise, "You actually understand?"

"Yes." Wen Li nodded. "Because I understand, I don’t understand."

"You’ve understood?" Zhu Pingniang was not quite convinced. She asked, "What do you think romantic feelings between men and women are?"

"Very complex," Wen Li said. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

"Then where do you think a woman’s affection for a man generally begins?" Zhu Pingniang asked.

"Curiosity," Wen Li said.

"Curiosity?"

"Yes."

Wen Li explained, "The emotion itself isn’t important. What matters is that after the thought of wanting to explore arises, a woman may be drawn to the merits of the person she is curious about, unconsciously falling into a state of concern, and that concern can amplify, creating a cycle called ’liking.’"

She paused in her tone and said, "Just like the junior sisters on the mountain, many of them like the junior brother not because he’s a good steward, but because they are curious about why he has such a steady Sea of Consciousness."

"And, and then?" Zhu Pingniang stared blankly at Wen Li.

"Afterwards?" Wen Li thought for a moment.

"In emotional matters, at the start, both parties see only each other’s strengths. After deeper association, rationality slowly takes over again; strengths are hidden, and flaws are highlighted."

Wen Li said seriously, "At that time, if you can still firmly believe you like the other person... then such feelings can be called liking."

Like Xu Chang’an and Yun Qian, after being tested, they can truly say they like each other.

And as for herself... she merely liked the reflection in the mirror, an insignificant liking.

"..." Zhu Pingniang.

Baffled.

Completely baffled.

At this moment, Zhu Pingniang widened her eyes, as if seeing Wen Li for the first time.

It turned out Wen Li really understood?

But despite understanding so well, she still says she can’t understand her feelings for Xu Chang’an...

Zhu Pingniang bewilderingly realized that perhaps Wen Li’s feelings for Xu Chang’an were far more complex than she had imagined.
