I think he just saw my name and figured, "Why not that guy!" (No matter what happened. It would be interesting or deserved. ) I don't get why he'd pick you though. Maybe it was random. Maybe all of it was.
(And he's just reading into this too much!! But he's got an idea of what Shima is like so DOUBT)
Yeah, I didn't think anything about it either. Which reminds me, though... Xie Lian came to me because something was wrong with you.
(He was fine! He was having a perfectly good day until that moment and then Xie Lian brought up Hua Cheng was beign strange for no reason!)
Essentially throwing a dart and deciding who to throw at you, I suppose. If he wanted a distraction, well, he certainly got it. [ A click of his tongue.
But he looks at him, lazily blinking, once, at the way he brings up Xie Lian in a different tone. Not that he's particularly surprised, knowing that gege asked Claude about the situation.
... well. ]
No. He asked about how you were, last week, since I told him that you and I had tea Tuesday before everything went to shit. And instead of anything kind to say, I'm sure you can guess what my response was.
It worried him. [ San Lang doesn't make friends easily, he'd say. ]
Hmmm, we were getting along just fine before and suddenly we weren't. I can see why he'd be concerned.
I'm sorry I worried him, too.
(He still remembers when they spoke that day. That... disappointment he'd felt when he'd said some of the things he had.)
No point fussing over it now. It's over. Though, I worry about any others being given a similar choice in the future and what it might mean... Things are complicated enough here.

Are you talking me behind my back~?
(How else did it all come up?)
