Ok but my favourite thing about the tragedy of them, about Shen Wenlang being an absolute fucking idiot and missing all the clues is because he just trusts Gao Tu so much. Gao Tu is literally the person that makes him feel at home, the one constant that he trusts without questions and thinks will be there with him, always. So the thought that Gao Tu could LIE TO HIM? and about something so significant and important? It never even crossed my guys mind.
Like even if someone point blank tells him, he will not fucking believe till he has like 24 different pieces of proof. My poor dumb dude.
