Background / History

Shasha is Liu Zheng's only daughter. Her father was the leader of Jianghai's Sand Bamboo Gang, while her mother had been killed by Liu Zheng's enemies; Liu Zheng concealed the truth because he feared Shasha would hate him. 354

As a child, Shasha frequently stayed with Lingjing's family at the Ye Family Martial Arts School and treated it as another home. She became inseparable from Lingjing and Jiaming, forming the core of their household long before their later cohabitation. 18 181

At fifteen, Shasha and Jiaming were kidnapped by Cao Jinghao's men and held at a lumber mill. Despite her fear, she encouraged Jiaming; after he created an opening for her escape, she kissed him and fled to seek help. 32 35 The ordeal strengthened her concern for Jiaming and introduced her to Kaoru Yuechi, whose endurance and composure Shasha deeply admired. 38 39

Following Liu Zheng's murder by Liu Shijie, Shasha was devastated at her father's funeral, remaining kneeling and unresponsive for hours. She gradually recovered with Jiaming and Lingjing's support, defended Lingjing from hostile relatives, and chose to uphold her father's legacy rather than abandon the Sand Bamboo Gang. 354 358 359

Shasha eventually moved into a room at the Sand Bamboo Gang headquarters to study its operations and assume greater responsibility. Jiaming and Xiao Meng initially shielded her from the gang's darker affairs, but she insisted on learning its practical management and later sought to legitimize the organization. 365 385 464

Appearance

Shasha is a 1.67-meter-tall young woman with an athletic, fit build, long legs, and a sharp oval face. Her usual lively, boyish presentation contrasts sharply with the elegance she displays when formally dressed. 78 85 286 320

• Often wears practical, casual clothing and keeps her hair short or in a neat ponytail. 121 286 448
• Her androgynous styling has led others to mistake her for a handsome boy at a glance. 78 121
• In a black gown, she appeared unusually shy and graceful, compared to a dark-purple narcissus. 85
• Four years after high school, she is thinner and carries a visible strength and military-like sharpness from training and hardship. 448 512

Personality

Shasha is energetic, direct, and socially outgoing. She has a sharp tongue and a volatile temper, but is fundamentally tender-hearted; her instinct is to protect the people she considers family. 60 105 365 Before discovering Jiaming's true capability, she carried a baseball bat because she believed it was her job to protect him and Lingjing. 281

Her strong sense of justice regularly draws her into trouble. She intervened when an elderly woman was pushed toward a gang fight, cared for the injured Huang Haobing despite their estrangement, and struggled with guilt after his death. 172 281 352

Shasha can be jealous, possessive, and impulsive, particularly where Jiaming and Lingjing are concerned. She is also deeply insecure about being immature or lacking a purpose, which contributed to her decision to take responsibility for the Sand Bamboo Gang. 152 384 Though she projects the confidence of a gang leader in public, she remains affectionate, clingy, and playful around Jiaming and Lingjing. 286 358
