Chapter 287: Chapter 169: Mindset_3

Lin Wu said, "Impossible, we’re not boyfriend and girlfriend, we haven’t even kissed."

Shana said, "I haven’t even held hands with him."

"Wow," Lin Wu looked at Shana for a while and said, "You’re such a player."

"Flying kick." Shana threw a kick without much force and didn’t follow up, looking somewhat dejected, she said, "I don’t like this kind of personality. I’ve always been envious of my parents since I was born. They love each other very much, they never argue, and they still play and tease each other in front of me even in their forties."

Lin Wu said, "If you’re a player, you’re a player. The advantage of being a player is making others miserable."

Shana gave a thumbs up, "I’ve never looked at the issue from that angle before."

Lin Wu said, "Solving worries and troubles, glad to be of service to you."

Shana asked, "What if one day I get tired of you and it shows in a way I can’t hide?"

Lin Wu said, "No need to cover it up, just tell me directly."

Shana said, "Do you remember when you chose Maya over me to go to the supermarket base? Do you remember what you told me?"

Lin Wu said, "I told you that you were very beautiful, and I was afraid I’d fall for you."

Shana asked, "And then?"

Lin Wu said, "There’s no then. I just didn’t want to get mixed up with the trouble that is you."

Shana, as if in deep thought, said, "I should have guessed you were lying back then."

Lin Wu asked, "Is it because Maya is more beautiful?"

Unbearable, flying kick, another one, keep going! Lin Wu had nowhere to escape, so he crouched down with his head in his hands by the wall.

After a set, Shana asked, "Do you like Maya?"

"Yeah, I do."

"You know what I mean."

"Oh, if you have no sword in your heart, then you hold no sword in your hand," Lin Wu said. "As long as you don’t immediately think of a man-woman relationship upon seeing a woman, you won’t have those thoughts. Many people magnify their relationships with women in their minds because of possessiveness or because of their longing for love. As long as one clearly understands that dating and love are wrong, that they are as harmful as poison and gambling, then one’s thoughts won’t go in that direction."

Lin Wu continued, "Moreover, one must sever the link between love and that. The former is in the realm of the spirit, while the latter is in the physiological realm; they’re completely different things. In this way, one won’t develop feelings of love. Look at the fangirls, they imagine themselves as the naive and sweet girls bullied by the overbearing CEOs in novels, thus shaping a biased perspective, filled with fantasies about love and the desire to become the female lead. They fall into relationships easily."

Lin Wu said, "On the other hand, some boys like to play basketball or video games. In their daily lives, they don’t talk about women or believe in love at first sight. The majority of them fall because they encounter a girl’s approach without any defenses. Then, they develop some unhealthy attitudes, thinking that if there’s an opportunity for romance, why not take it. The most deadly thing is the strong impact that a woman’s body has on them; they easily mistake that for love."

Lin Wu summarized, "Where can dust arise if there’s no dust in your heart?" If there is no dust in your heart, any dust can only come from the outside. If you resist the dust from the external world, you can keep your heart clean. Translation: As long as I can resist the temptations of beauty and wealth, I can wander the world with a clear conscience."

This is not steel; this is chrome steel, tempered a thousand times with theory and practice. Fortunately, Shana wasn’t one for seeking out challenges, otherwise, faced with such a rare oddity as Lin Wu, she would have dismantled him completely.
