Liking someone isn't scary.
What's scary is that the man she's fallen for is Li Shengxiao!
In front of this man, at least up until now, she still couldn't find a point where she could match him stride for stride. In other words, they were different.
They lived in different environments, occupied different social statuses.
This kind of feeling might very likely lead to a situation in the later stage where the person forging ahead gets tired of waiting for the other to grow, choosing to give up.
She didn't like being abandoned, especially after she had grown increasingly fond of someone, to then be cruelly cast aside. She could imagine the heart-rending sadness without having to experience it.
