Kamao led them to a rooftop garden that overlooked the ancient city walls. Over bowls of steaming biangbiang noodles, he told stories of Xi'an's layered history — the imperial past resting under neon signs and late-night karaoke.

After the set, they found B leaning against a stone column, cigarette in hand and softness in the way she laughed.

They moved like a single organism through the alleys, chasing snacks, songs, and sunlight.
