Gu Jin watched him eat a few biscuits and drink the malted milk from the cup before allowing him to lie down on the bed opposite to rest.
The sound of the train clattered in the night; it was a sound Gu Jin hadn't heard for decades.
She glanced at the child sleeping soundly on the bed opposite. Despite the loud train noise, she could still discern the sound of his breathing.

After returning from this trip to Shenzhen, she would teach An Mingji the Mystic Sky Technique for cultivation.
Gu Jin calculated the time; if her cousin could remain safe, their return would mark the beginning of disaster for the entire North China District.
The impending rainy season would bring a month's worth of rain, followed by famine.
Lying on the bed, staring at the scenery rapidly flashing past outside the train window, Gu Jin's heart grew heavier.
