The rumbling sound of the train was the dominant theme throughout the sleeper car. Scenery flew by in reverse from the windows at high speed.
Lin Fei sat at the table by the window, quietly observing the outside landscape. He was a person who liked tranquility. Despite knowing Lin You wasn't aware of his situation, anyone faced with direct verbal abuse would feel a sense of rejection. Lin Fei decided to wait until Lin You had calmed down before slowly talking to her.
From leaving the hotel until boarding the train, the two hadn't spoken. Lin You was silent the whole time, occasionally glancing at Lin Fei but quickly looking away, unsure if it was because of the earlier incident or something else. She also didn't hold her black cat, Feil, as she usually did.
Next to Lin Fei sat Shuang'er, the young girl clutching a large bag of chips and munching away happily. The bag was twice the size of her little head and looked rather adorably disproportionate.
