My pleasure! Because, yes, that reading held water for me. I do think Shen Wei was taken by surprise, more than once, by the intensity of his own emotional response and by just how sharp Zhao Yunlan really is, to say nothing of how /relentless/ he is. But those bambi eyes are totally not meant to be taken seriously. It reads far more like an in-joke between them, to me, once Shen Wei /does/ understand more of what Yunlan is like.
