Li Lu will always be Si Yuchen's best fan, and Gu Xiaonuan is used to it. Besides, Li Lu's words aren't wrong.
Just like Li Lu said, Si Yuchen has indeed done a lot for her.
And when you put all these things together, it shows that Si Yuchen's feelings for her are not fake.
If these feelings were fake, then why waste so much time on her?
Moreover, Gu Xiaonuan has always been someone who doesn't want to easily accept others' kindness. The fact that she can try to accept Si Yuchen's kindness implies, in some ways, that she has grown accustomed to it, making her gradually realize that aside from Gu Xijue, there is someone else who can give her a sense of security.
Gu Xiaonuan is someone who severely lacks a sense of security because, no matter what it is, she can handle it alone. But this is not the life Gu Xiaonuan wants to see.
Gu Xiaonuan also wants to be someone who is well-protected and hopes that the people around her are worthy of her reliance.
