It's one of the first moments where we see past the gruff exterior; I love it!
Although I might love the bit right before it even more where Jingyan basically tells Lin Shu to his face that he wants to live up to Lin Shu's expectations of him and that no one else's opinion matters. Okay he probably also meant Prince Qi and some of the Chiyan brass that he would have known and respected, but still.
I definitely got a hint from that flashback scene that Jingyan was the one to jolly Lin Shu out of his petty or whining moments; I really would love some ChangsuLives!fic where other people slowly become aware of that dynamic and are stunned and awed that stubborn unreasonable Jingyan is the calm voice of reason that can abate Mei Changsu's temper. :D
