Gu Qingyuan's problem is that no matter what happens, he cannot handle it calmly.
If he could deal with the issue calmly, then there wouldn't be so many unexpected events now.
When the unexpected happens and nothing is under Gu Qingyuan's control, what issue can't be resolved?
So, Gu Qingyuan still can't change anything; he chose the wrong way, using such a misguided method trying to obtain forgiveness, isn't this a sign of complete indifference?
If he truly cared about others' feelings, he wouldn't have acted this way.
Gu Qingyuan's mind is unclear, but Shen Biran's mind is very clear.
Shen Biran knows what kind of person Lu Xiao is and knows that Lu Xiao cannot be easily manipulated by Gu Qingyuan.
That's why Shen Biran doesn't advise Gu Qingyuan to team up with him, because if they do, Gu Qingyuan will inevitably end up being the one hurt.
If he gets hurt like this, there will never be any chance or possibility in the future.
