Xu Jinglan thought she was in love.
Zhou Xubai calls her every day, plays games with her, shares daily life with her, and calls her an "existence beyond reality." They changed their avatars to resemble love ones, and were always together in the game. Even their friends felt that they were "just short of an official announcement."
Only there is no "I like you".
Later, contact with Zhou Xubai suddenly disappeared, and a month later it was officially announced that he was someone else.
Xu Jinglan deleted all chat records, smiled and blessed her in front of her friends, spent sleepless nights alone, flipped through screenshots, and drank to drown her sorrows.
She told herself: We never started, so there is no end.
Later, Zhou Xubai broke up. He came back to her crying, as if nothing had happened, trying to withdraw from the ambiguous relationship.
Xu Jinglan looked at the familiar avatar on the screen and suddenly realized that she no longer wanted to play.
This is a story about an "unfinished relationship". It doesn't talk about how to start, only how to end. Or rather, how not to start.
Intent: A dignified exit from an unfinished relationship
