An Jing understood the deep meaning in Gong Juese's words but did not know how to comfort her, because she felt the same way.
Gong Juese did not say anything more but silently picked Fulan flower petals.

An Jing also said nothing further, just quietly helped Gong Juese pluck all the petals from the Fulan flowers and put them in a basin.
