"Mai, do you want to reassess it?"
Chen Chen asked cautiously after seeing her like this.
"No need."
Mai Xiaomai gestured for him to seal the body back into the freezer, then walked out with Lin Xuanzi's help.
As soon as she stepped out of the freezing room, the bright sunlight stung her eyes, making her feel slightly dizzy.
"Let's rest over there."
Lin Xuanzi helped her to a stone bench under a tree and handed her a handkerchief.
Mai Xiaomai took the handkerchief, wiped the sweat off her forehead, and looked up at the sky.
She felt that the sun in the sky was somewhat pale, reminding her of the first time she saw her mother in the psychiatric hospital, tears silently slid down from the corners of her eyes.
She didn't reach up to wipe away the tears, letting them flow freely.
From her cheeks down to her neck...
One drop after another, a stream of them...
Lin Xuanzi watched beside her.
He didn't make a sound or help her wipe the tears.
