@Bramia oh absolutely. Though I think it's clear enough that she was already well on the path to becoming the person he hates, even if she had yet to commit actual crimes. In the current timeline, she's been arrogant and dismissive of others, and based on how the encounter with Nie Li started...
Sometimes a person needs to have their bad actions pointed out to them before they realise how wrong they were. That and some time to reflect a bit. Now she can start again with more awareness of the consequences of her own actions.
