Shen Biran had no choice but to wait for Gu Xiaonuan to slowly figure it out, to understand clearly.
Was she a real presence, or just an illusionary dream?
Shen Biran couldn't force Gu Xiaonuan to open the door and let her in, and Shen Biran felt guilty; she truly didn't know how to face Gu Xiaonuan.
For Gu Xiaonuan, Shen Biran's emotions were arguably more confused than hers.
She never expected to face her daughter's judgment so soon. Having taken so many measures, how could she easily be forgiven by the other party?
She chose to abandon her children, to hide alone, disguising herself as a vegetable; she had made a decision that Gu Xiaonuan could never forgive.
"Are you really her?"
Gu Xiaonuan asked for confirmation again, because she couldn't believe it.
There was no way to believe it, nor could she.
If she just chose to believe it, then how was Gu Xiaonuan supposed to face her own suspicions?
