After declaring himself unrelated to the incidents of those years, Elder Pei fell into a brief silence.
Su Chen watched him but did not urge anything; he quietly sipped his tea while waiting.
"Su Chen, do you understand your mother?"
Elder Pei suddenly looked up at Su Chen and asked.
Upon hearing this, Su Chen was momentarily stunned, pondering the meaning behind the question.
After considering, he said somberly,
"I should understand my own mother quite well, but actually, my memory of her has faded. I only remember her always playing hide-and-seek with me in the yard, those times when I was very happy, and the scene of her on her deathbed."
"You can't be blamed; you were too young then."
Elder Pei sighed, then gazed intently at Su Chen and said,
"What I want to tell you is that your mother's identity is also very extraordinary!"
