4. Describe a choice made by a character in the novel.  Why did the character make this choice?  Was his or her action justified?
   
   
   
   
    The main character in this book was Ji Li Jiang. But I would like to talk more about Ji Li's father, who had made the influence of Ji Li's family's dark past, which made them the Half- City Jiangs. As in the story Ji Li gets to meet her father. But after taking what he needs, he ran away. Why? Now I don't know why he had to do that. But one of the prediction is that he decided it would be safer for his family to survive, because there were hard times for all the family because of one person. So he decided to leave the family by themselves to make them more comfortable and easier to live.
   
   
   I think it would for the sake of his life and his family's lives. But I think it wouldn't have been for Ji Li at that time. He literally sacrificed himself for the rest of the family, for his mother, daughters, wife, and others. But it would have been a hard choice to leave the family without a proper man adult to protect his own family ( wife, daughters). But he did a justified action to save his family from being the sacrifice of all the people. He just ran away without anyone which made him the easier target, and made the family have a better life.
