Chen Xiyue returned to Qingdai Lane because her landlord told her she'd left something behind and needed to come collect it soon. She had no memory of leaving anything there, until she spotted a cardboard box in the study.
It was something he had left behind.
The box wasn't heavy, but Chen Xiyue was dazed and fumbled with it, scattering its contents across the floor. They landed softly on the thick carpet with a few faint thuds.
She paused for a moment, her eyes settling on a box on the floor. It was made of walnut, and exquisitely crafted, but she had never seen it before.
Chen Xiyue crouched down and slowly opened it. Inside were little objects that looked like envelopes. Something must have been triggered, because the envelopes began to speak, filling the room with unfamiliar male voices.
“Chen Xiyue, you look so cute when you cry.”
“Chen Xiyue, I want to see you every day.”
“Chen Xiyue... I want to marry Chen Xiyue.”
“Chen Xiyue, I'm sorry. Don't wait for me anymore.”
Chen Xiyue heard Liang Weizhou's voice for the first time among the keepsakes he had never thrown away.
*If you like strange people, then I'm beautiful.
