Toward the end, Su Man was almost murmuring to herself. Shen Ruo frowned, feeling that Su Man's words were somewhat inexplicable and not knowing what she was trying to express.
"Is this why you asked me to come out, to say these things to me?"
"Of course not. What I want to say to you is that Kai actually likes me. The reason he doesn't accept me, first, is because of Su Rong. If he accepted me, he would feel that he's betraying Su Rong, and it would remind him of Su Rong's death, which would make him suffer. Second, he cherishes me and wouldn't want me to be anyone's replacement. Until he's freed from Su Rong's influence over him, he won't let me be Su Rong's substitute. So, now he just sees me as his sister, as his only sister. But I can't worry about that too much. I like him, and I want to be with him. What I want to tell you is, please don't fall in love with him, because sooner or later, he will be mine!"
