His words carried a cautious tone.
When Shangguan Xi heard them, she suddenly felt a sense of unease.
Her heart began to ache.
In truth, she's been deceiving herself all along, claiming she doesn't like Mosen. But, does she really not like him at all?
She knows very well that her heart has indeed felt something for Mosen.
It's just that sometimes Mosen behaves too extremely, which is related to his family's hereditary mental illness. So, being with him at times feels like being with a ticking time bomb, making Shangguan Xi immensely fearful, on edge almost all the time.

Therefore, she and Mosen have hardly any sweet memories, only fear and avoidance, along with her inferiority complex before and after losing her memory.
