Many years later, when Chu Lan had finally worked her way up to the rank of major general through diligent service, she was asked why she had chosen to join the military.
Chu Lan pondered for a long time, then smiled. "I was fortunate that, in the hardest and most wretched days of my life, a few rays of sunshine found their way in and pulled me back from the edge of the abyss."
She raised her glass and toasted the distant horizon. "To the soldiers guarding our country's borders."
