Two teams bade each other a reluctant farewell at the high-speed rail station.
One was heading back to Beijing, the other returning to Rain Alley City.
Qiao Yuansi and his team had hardly arrived at the station when they bought tickets and left. Lu Ran and his team, however, had to wait a very long time before they could catch a train passing through Rain Alley City.
By the time Lu Ran arrived in Rain Alley, it was already evening.
A light drizzle fell from the sky, pattering softly.
"I'm home," Lu Ran murmured as he stood at the exit.
Returning to this city of incessant rain, he truly felt as though he had traveled through time.
The common saying goes, "Golden autumn in October," but Lu Ran surely hadn't seen it.
All he saw were the curtains of rain at nightfall, feeling the chill penetrating his bones.
"Go rest well and cultivate well," Jiang Ruyi said softly, her gaze sweeping across her three teammates.
"Mmm," Tian Tian nodded obediently.
