The outcome Shen Biran faced rarely occurred—that is, being misunderstood for having interest in someone she doesn't love at all.
This was perhaps the biggest misunderstanding about Shen Biran, and also the most troublesome part for her.
Shen Biran couldn't just go and explain to Zhao Ying, explaining that there never was any affection between her and Gu Qingyuan. They're not involved romantically, so there's no need to say she'd compete for Gu Qingyuan's love.
Who Gu Qingyuan chooses to like or love has nothing to do with Shen Biran.
Shen Biran doesn't care, and she also doesn't want to know if these things might lead to different reasons.
Moreover, Shen Biran really wants Zhao Ying to know that no matter what she's thinking, Shen won't be interested in her thoughts.
Whatever Zhao Ying has done or plans to do, it holds no significance to her.
Their lives were originally not intertwined, but now they have become so.
