Among the five senior brothers, it wasn't the cold Si Lin that Gu Qingqing feared the most, but the gentlemanly Yue Zhao.
Si Lin, though cold to others, never hid his emotions. If he liked someone, he didn't pretend otherwise; if he disliked someone, he was equally straightforward.
The feeling Yue Zhao gave Gu Qingqing was different!
Refined like jade, the young master stands unmatched!
This was the first impression most had of Yue Zhao, and indeed his outward demeanor matched this: refined, righteous, like a moral beacon. Those of lesser character felt ashamed in his presence.
But in reality, he was not like this.
At least, when facing Si Lin and the other few, he was not like this.
Yue Zhao treated Gu Qingqing with utmost politeness and care, like a perfect senior brother. Yet Gu Qingqing, sensitive to others' emotions, could feel that Yue Zhao, the second senior brother, wasn't as fond of her as he seemed, perhaps not liking her at all!
