Wang Mingan was a sensitive and prideful person. Every time he was bullied, it was no different from a thousand cuts to him.
Similarly, he didn't like being pitied.
Second Miss Shen had seen his disheveled side twice, but she never had a pitiful expression on her face.
Including the first time she gave him money. She said "the medical fees that those people paid you", not "take the money to see a doctor."
He was also given money, but the former made him feel that he deserved it, while the latter only made him feel like he was being given charity.
Regardless of whether Second Miss Shen had done it unintentionally, he was grateful to her.
That's right. Compared to Shen Yijia saving him, Wang Mingan was clearly more grateful that she preserved his self-esteem.
