"You're worried about him getting beaten up, you should worry about yourself first." Shen Xinglan couldn't help but laugh and shake her head. Now she's afraid after going around in circles.
There were plenty of ways to solve this, but she chose the dumbest one. What if Shen Lin'an didn't like her? She would have put herself in jeopardy.
Regardless of whatever happens, the first and foremost task for a girl is to protect herself.
No one is worth protecting more than oneself, and no one is worth treasuring more.
"Aunt Shen," Shu Yi giggled, feeling a little embarrassed. If her parents found out, they'd scold her for not caring about herself, but it was different with Shen Lin'an - he'd actually get beaten up.
"Alright, alright, just this once. Next time something like this happens, you should seek help from us."
