Baby Zetty solemnly placed the box into the deep pit. At this moment, she could no longer hold her tears back. She abruptly wailed out in agony. Finn ultimately learned that she was perhaps burying someone dear to her.

Baby Zetty had always been a melancholic and sentimental girl with sincere emotions, so her cries could make one shed a tear as well.

Finn stepped forward, knelt on the ground alongside her, and said, "My deepest condolences for your loss."

At this moment, Baby Zetty suddenly plunged into Finn's arms, crying out in anguish.

Perhaps due to being caught up in the moment, Baby Zetty forgot to hide her identity for a short while. She subconsciously placed her hands on Finn's shoulders. Her action made Finn stiffen. For some reason, he seemed to have felt Baby Zetty's presence.

As if something had possessed him, he even stretched his hands out, wanting to embrace her as well.

Ultimately, his rational side prevailed and stopped him from doing so. He merely froze in place, allowing Baby Zetty to vent her emotions as he stayed

motionless.

Gale walked out of the sunflower field and witnessed Finn and Baby Zetty's affectionate gestures. He was not at all surprised to see it.

"What's the matter with her?" Finn assumed that Gale might know the reason for Granny's sorrow.

The way she was crying was exactly like how Baby Zetty cried-completely inconsolable.

Gale looked at the box of ashes inside the pit and said, "The person inside the box is someone very dear to her. She's sad to bid farewell to her." Finn was slightly moved upon hearing this.

His nose became slightly sore, and there was an inexplicable emotion in his heart. It was as if he could feel Granny's pain.

As for Gale, when he turned his eyes to the box, one could not read the emotions in his eyes. They looked somewhat indifferent yet anxious and worried at the same time.

"Don't be sad, Granny. Life and death are ruled by fate. Meeting someone and parting from them has all been destined. You should calmly try to accept this."

Gale was clearly a young man who should know nothing about worldly affairs. However, the words he said showed that he had gone through many vicissitudes in life. "Don't cry, Granny." When Finn heard Baby Zetty gasping for breath as she cried, he was somewhat afraid that she would faint. Enduring the slight sadness in his heart, he still tried to say kind words of comfor to her.

Baby Zetty was still inconsolable, but she started speaking.

"I hate this world! Why should we go through so many joys and sorrows of parting and reunion?"

These words suddenly reminded Finn of Baby Zetty. His eyes turned red as he said hoarsely, "Yeah. I hate it too."

When she felt Finn's sadness, Baby Zetty lifted her head from his arms, only to see that she had drenched his clothes with her tears.

She felt embarrassed again in an instant.

Did she just... use this shell of an old lady and acted like a baby with Finn? What would he think of her now?

Baby Zetty's ears turned red, and she quickly stood up as if she was unperturbed. Then, she continued to sob as she buried the ashes with the dirt.

Seeing her pious attitude, Finn could not help but ask curiously, "Who is this person, Granny?"

Baby Zetty blurted out, "She's my mister, the person who taught me everything I know."

Finn was slightly startled. The word 'mister' was considered an old way to address one's teacher.

Considering Granny's current age and that she studied medicine, it was pretty normal for her to call her mentor 'mister'.

It was just that how could this Granny's experiences be exactly the same as Baby Zetty's?

Finn could not help but look at Granny in scrutiny. He was surprised to find that she seemed a little older than yesterday. Was it just his illusion? Did Granny always have a head full of gray hair? Finn felt even more pity and sympathy for Baby Zetty now.

Seeing how weak she was, Finn helped her in burying Boye. Ultimately, Finn went to look for a stone and placed it in front of Baby Zetty, asking, "What would you like to write on the tombstone?"
