Sheng Huan just listened, feeling particularly uncomfortable deep down. Shi'er had never left Beijing since he was born. This was his home, his lair where he played both sides, manipulating situations to his advantage. With his proud and ambitious nature, if he really left Beijing and went abroad, could he adapt to the life there?
As Sheng Huan thought about it, tears started to fall: "Shi'er, is it worth it? Do you like her so much that you're determined to be with her at all costs? Are no other girls suitable?"
"Big sister, you know how much I like her. You know that. When you were our class teacher, you were aware that I liked her. I've liked her since our school days until now. If you ask me to let her go like this, I would be heartbroken for the rest of my life. Big sister, I've died twice for her already. If I can't be with her, I feel I've been terribly shortchanged, really. When I think about it, it makes me feel upset."
