Wutong, When Will You Come Again?

Mr. Qi Kang

3K0

On a winter night in Nanjing in 1937, Qiao Renzhi gave Chen Manshu a stopped pocket watch, turned around and jumped into the artillery fire at Yuhuatai - this was the farewell she had been waiting for half a century. From the first meeting in the alley of Fuzhou, the oath made by the phoenix tree in the small courtyard of Nanjing, to the letters from home that were broken in the war, and the sycamore leaves saved over the years, Chen Manshu kept the promise of "waiting for me to come back" and turned his black hair into white hair. In front of the Martyrs' Shrine in Taipei in 1987, she gently placed the sycamore leaf that had been preserved during the war in front of his soul, and finally said to him: "Renzhi, I'm here to keep the appointment."
