Entering the memorial hall, Joyce saw a weary Ronald and a motionless Zander on the wheelchair.
She stood in front of the statue of Ruby, deeply bowed and offered chrysanthemums, and then pondered for a long time.
She had a love–hate relationship with Ruby.
It gratitude is mentioned, Ruby, however, let her three years of youth flow away.
