but omg, looking at the pure wonder and wistfulness written all over his face in those seconds when he thinks no one is looking while he took in the lovely and heartfelt gift Sha Ya got.
Yeeah, except (to counter that for just a mo) it's also possible he's rapt at the beauty and scientific marvel of it. I mean, Lin Jing's gift is thoughtful and all, but it also makes Sha Ya say ILU when she isn't ready and says she doesn't feel that way, so there's a hint of coercion there too, which I can't imagine Shen Wei would be on board with?
Which is not to say he doesn't care deeply about gifts and symbols (cf the lollipop wrapper), but I don't know if the Sha Ya gift scene necessary applies. Idk. :-)
