Shang Chi deeply admired Qian Sisi. If in the beginning his affection for Qian Sisi stemmed from her being a ray of light in the gloom and chill of his youth, now, he viewed her as a woman—one who shared his interests, worked diligently, with an upright attitude, who was truly admirable.
Transforming from a cute little girl into a charming woman, Shang Chi's heart underwent substantial change as well.
In the past, he wanted to protect her, to awaken her memories of him.
Now, he desired to possess her, to make her fall in love with him.
"Sisi—" Shang Chi suddenly asked Qian Sisi, "If your boyfriend was hiding something from you, what would you do?"
Qian Sisi blinked blankly, "What? Are you saying... Bai Cheng'an is hiding something from me, Mr. Shang?"
Shang Chi hesitated for two seconds, then dismissed his hypothesis: "No, I was just casually mentioning it!"
He stood up and walked towards the gradually rising sun, his heart filled with complexity.
