Actually it looks like everyone else is sad about this scene 2
U really put it so well together. And it's true Qiao led them on especially the red one. Atleast Qiao knew they were misunderstanding
I thought this was supposed to be the promised great chapter. Every ch so far was so emotional and well done. Balancing being entertaining and showing great emotion. This ch is so backwards and is just like the majority of smut scenes in this space. Its just a smut scene. As far removed as it could be. Its especially prominent in contrast to how well grounded the other chs were.
Reading the cn replies it seems everyone is OK with this scene and theyre talking about how emotional it was but in my opinion it wasn't. It was the exact opposite. For everyone involved.
Qiao tries to justify selfishly using their feelings for him as an equivalent exchange cause hes scared of being powerless in a world where if ur a weak guide ur less than. The brothers use it as a way to gain any attachment they can to him. Showing the reality behind their relatioship front and center (obsession).
Qiao wants to be at least on equal footing with everyone and to go and set something for himself. Hes always been the powerless one. When he was adopted into the family, when he found out his guide rank, and in the relationship they had/have. As a guide: hes physically weaker and in this weird sclass power generator situation, he is at the mercy of if they'll aid him.
I can kinda understand the red guys reason...barely. he thought qiao liked him back or something along those lines but was just being used. but both of them deciding to use him cause of it instead of just separating from him is trash and once again shows their obsession front and center.
