There is a bar in Shanghai's Wutong District called "Wan Lai".
Seven strangers gathered there on an autumn night, thinking they were just attending an ordinary drinking party.
Zhou Ye and Shen Zhi never bowed their heads before their old relationship ended; Zheng Kai and Xu Nuo were still one step away from each other; Li Jun and Chen Lian stabbed each other; Luo Qian looked at Shen Zhi quietly - she liked her and never said it out loud.
Later, some people flew abroad and never came back; some fell ill in the spring; some lost their lives for their loved ones.
Four left and three stayed.
Those who stay will live the rest of their lives with that unspoken sentence and the step they didn't catch up with.
——Written to all those who love but cannot get it, and how to take back the promise with impermanence.
