Su Li: "I was thinking wrongly before, but I've corrected my thinking now. Isn't that good?"
"You've cleared your thoughts, that's good. Anyway, your mother and I will only ever have you as a daughter. If you can't handle it yourself and later give everything to your son-in-law, wouldn't that be the same as giving it to a stranger? My lifetime of hard work would then be wasted."
"I know, Daddy."

Su Li had just returned to her room after breakfast when her phone, decorated with a dazzling array of rhinestones, lit up.
The screen displayed "My Dear."
Su Li realized that this should be the time when Shi Shen had been in contact with "Su Li" and they were likely in the ambiguous phase of their relationship.
Seeing the name she saved for Shi Shen indicated as much. Although they did not openly acknowledge it, in "Su Li's" perception, both sides must have had a complete understanding, reaching the level of a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
