This sentence came from a dialogue in the novel,"A Smile is Beautiful." The original text was as follows:
Bei Weiwei: " Mr. Xiao, I know I look like a mess right now, but it's okay. It's love."
"What is love?"
Bei Weiwei: " When you love someone, you will be willing to do anything for them, even if it goes against your own principles."
"I understand."
Bei Weiwei: " No, love is when you fall in love with someone, you will be willing to give up everything for him, including your own principles."
"Is that still love?"
Bei Weiwei: Of course, if this is not love, then what is love?
The freedom from age - related expectations. In a normal relationship where age is a factor, there are often set ideas about how a couple should act based on their age group. But in an 'age doesn't matter' love story, they can break those norms and be themselves.
Another example could be the love story of Hugh Jackman and his wife. Despite any age differences, they have built a family together and are often seen supporting each other. Their relationship shows that love can thrive regardless of age as they share common values and a deep emotional connection.

I Don't Want to Find a Reason to Love You on Purpose " was a modern romance novel written by the author Liang Busi. The general plot of this novel was:

Perhaps when the lake light shines on our faces.

However, I'm not sure if it's true love.
Your social status, your handsome appearance, and your arrogant attitude,
There are too many reasons for me to fall in love with you, so you will doubt me more.
It was easy to seriously explore the meaning of love, but if it was too deliberate, it would be meaningless.
The main theme could be about relationships where love is devalued or perhaps a situation where love is not the most important factor. It might explore how characters interact and make decisions without love being a primary consideration.
I'm not sure as I haven't read the novel. But they could be people who are indifferent to love, like a career - driven character who doesn't let love interfere with their goals.
