Silence before the storm.

"Aunty, have they got married?" Lu Suyin asked Mo Nuwa on the phone from the hospital to the hotel where Mo Nuwa stayed for the marriage.

"Yes, dear. No matter how hard we tried, we were never able to find Yuze. Now I don't have any hope remaining for Quang and Yuze. I wish I could have been braver for my son. It is all my fault that I am letting my husband play with the future of my both sons. I am seeing their ruined future in front of my eyes but I can't do anything."

As Mo Nuwa said it she broke into tears. She cried her heart out for a long time on the call and then calmed herself to support the girl she admired a lot.

"Lu Suyin, thank you for everything you did for me and my son. I will never forget what you did for us."

"Aunty, please don't say that. You are like a mother to me and Mo Quang is like my brother. Don't thank me for anything and don't blame yourself. It was never your fault. I think we were wrong from the start.
