Letian immediately laughed very happily when he saw this. His laughter stemmed from the joy of having successfully pulled of a joke.
Fangzheng noticed that Letian enjoyed laughing. He seemed to laugh at every trivial matter. And it was not a fake laugh, but a genuine one. This meant that his heart was untainted and extremely clear. He laughed when happy, cried when sad, cursed when angry. All of that was expressed with a mere thought. He acted as he wished.
Fangzheng realized that he was far inferior to Letian on this aspect. He still had invisible ties that restrained him, preventing him from completely letting things go, from being completely carefree and living as his heart wanted. However, Letian was pointing Fangzheng in a particular direction, a path that he looked forward to. At the very least, he knew which direction to take in the future.
