Now, it was Lin Xiaolu's turn to fall into a stupor.
"Why?" It took her a while to sift through Emerald Sparrow's words for information, and she asked somewhat dazedly.
"...There's no why," Emerald Sparrow turned her head aside.
Her daughter's words had struck a raw nerve, and she couldn't help but impulsively speak her truth: she had already lost her wife and if she were to lose her child one day, then she would truly have no remaining reason to live in this world. By then, she might as well commit suicide for some peace.
Although somewhat extreme, this logic might be somewhat excusable for Lin Yun, but coming from Emerald Sparrow, it seemed much more incongruent.
After all, from an outsider's perspective, the relationship between Emerald Sparrow and Bai Mei was just that of magic girl seniors and juniors who happened to meet in a city, far from being a matter of life or death like this.
