Liu Xi would find that sad, but it wouldn't stop her from being cautious.  Plus she's always so uncertain of herself, it would be difficult staying close to someone else who's uncertain - she'd become frustrated by the indecision prevailing between them.

Even so, Liu Xi sees through that and appreciates the effort.  She has the rare drive to stop and smell the roses even while being hunted - she appreciates the little things when she can.
