Upon hearing Li Chen's inquiry, Bai Shuang was momentarily startled.
Then, she smiled gently, acknowledging Li Chen's guess.
Li Chen asked, "So, madam, what would you like to know?"
Bai Shuang didn't answer immediately but gazed at the cherry blossom tree above.
After a long while, she finally smiled lightly and asked, "Did he ever answer whether the sword or I was more important?"
Li Chen seemed to have already anticipated Bai Shuang's question.
However, he didn't directly answer Bai Shuang but instead casually asked in return.
"Madam, is this question important?"
Bai Shuang pondered for a moment, then gave a bitter smile.
"It used to be very important, but now it has no meaning. I simply just want to know the answer!"
Li Chen stared at the stone table for a while and decided to answer truthfully.
When Bai Shuang heard "She is more important than the sword," her once smiling eyes immediately filled with glistening tears.
Seeing this, Li Chen casually comforted her.
