This is an urban emotional gray novel full of reality, sadness, joy, and touching. This is a true story. It is like blood flowing in my body, sometimes cold and sometimes warm. I try hard to record the passing bits and pieces with words, in order to commemorate the youth we lost that year and fade away.
Here are the old streets of Qingdao you have walked through, the neon sunsets you have seen, the restaurants and bars you have been to, and the Hong Kong Middle Road, Hisense Plaza, Olympic Sailing Base, SHANGRI-LA, Yu Qilin, Municipal Hospital, Guangxi Road, Taitung, Cafe Kona, One-way Ticket, ViVi, Waiting for Someone, RM in the story... They are still there, but things are different and people are different, which disturbs the heartstrings and makes me shed tears before I want to speak.
I would like to dedicate this document to those who are struggling, to those who have loved deeply despite all odds, to you, me, and him, to the tender pain we share deep in our hearts.
