I often think about Shen Wei clasping Guo Changcheng's shoulder when Changcheng is struggling to accept his new dark-energy power in ep 37 (5:40). There's an element of almost "you're under my jurisdiction now, and I'm responsible for you and offering my support."

Oh, that's an interesting point! Yes, it feels like Shen Wei is offering a kind of comfort to Guo Changcheng there, in a "it's my responsibility" way.
