Liu Mingyan raises an eyebrow at 'Liu-shidi;' while it is technically true that Shen Qingqiu had been older martial brother to both Liu siblings, he would rather have died than ever address Liu Qingge so familiarly, and it strikes her as rather presumptuous that this ghost in his body still claims such a relationship. She tries to imagine her ge addressing this fey and accommodating man as 'shixiong,' and absolutely cannot.

She enters the room he indicates and waits to sit at the low table until her Emperor has done so first.
