Whitney patted Lil Ten on the shoulders and instilled in them her view of love with the demeanor of someone who was experienced. "There are two kinds of love, Lil Ten. One's the sort of love where you go for someone above you. That's where you look for someone who's better-looking and more capable than you. Of course, you'll be destined to constantly chase after their footsteps. That's the humbleness you described.
"Another kind of love is based on equality. The couple will have the same level of appearance and abilities, or they complement each other. This is the kind of love that many people pursue. When they're in love, others will compliment them and say they're a match made in heaven. However, this kind of love is also the most dangerous kind of love, because you don't know when one of them will progress leaps and bounds through their hard work while the other remains stagnant or move slowly. At this time, their love will change. From standing on equal ground, it'll transform into the first type of love. However, a proud person would be reluctant to look up to their partners, so the gap between them will increase. The person who has improved in life would despise their partner for not being ambitious, while the stagnant one would blame their partner for changing their mind."
Whitney summed it up in one sentence," It's better to learn from me and learn how to go for someone who's above you from the beginning. That way, you can follow in their footsteps to make progress in life.' The crowd’s jaws dropped, and they were stunned.
They did not expect Whitney to have such a deep understanding of the matter.
Lil Ten was full of praise for Whitney's explanation. "Listening to Whitty’s words alone is even better than ten years of study."
Whitney's lecture reminded the always proud Ghost members and military intelligence division sisters that life was impermanent. They should not look at the person in front of them with a still eye.
Therefore, when looking for a partner, they should learn to respect and tolerate each other.
Jenson, who had been silent for a while, suddenly said, "Whitty, I don’t need you to look up to me. You don’t have to work so hard to chase after me either. You're the one who found me, which implies that you can be a couch potato and I still wouldn't despise you."
Their public display of affection caught the rest of them off guard.
However, when they were envying Whitney, they were even more curious about how Jenson asked her out. Hence, they did not interrupt him and merely listened to Jens' voice attentively.
