Liking to lick is not love; perhaps it's just a conditioned reflex. If a person who likes to grovel has a second, more comfortable, more habitual choice, they naturally won't continue to lick.
The ancients realized this truth long ago. What they described as "living like flies and dogs" is because they didn't want to live like a sycophant.
When people hate, they can disregard everything, but when they love, they are cautious and afraid.
This is the contradiction of the world.
Zhang Jixian thought of this and again filled a cup of wine for himself, drinking it down once more.
This was the second cup of wine in his life.
Ye Xingchen finally glanced at Zhang Jixian sideways.
Two people had come, but Ye Xingchen's attention was always on Shen Yue, treating Zhang Jixian as if he were air.
The Heavenly Master of the dignified Way Of The Celestial Masters, in Ye Xingchen's eyes, seemed utterly insignificant.
