The Chinese Lily

Why does Lin John mean when he tells his sister, Mermei, that Sin Far is "happy" on page 104?

I think Lin John, is referring to the fact that Sin Far in heaven, which is a happy place, where you go when you died. Because Sin Far gave her life to save Mermei, she was rewarded with going to heaven. This is what I think Lin John meant when he said that Sin Far is happy.

Lin John and Sin Far love each others so much, and they know the other's thought as well. So, When Sin Far wants to sacrifice herself in order to save Mermei's life, she actually hopes Lin John agrees with her, and Lin John did respect Sin Far's suggestion. That's the reason that Lin John thinks Sin Far is happy, because he understands what she was thinking. Moreover, he did what she wants him to do.
