Gu Yusheng was silent and still for a long time before he moved his body. Lu Bancheng could barely make out his profile lying on the sofa in the dark.
After a long time, Gu Yusheng finally cleared his throat and murmured to himself, "She left me before I could show her my love."
He paused before continuing, his voice hoarse, "I had decided to give her everything, but she left me. Do you know how scary it is for me to lose someone? But I still let myself fall in love with her. I don't even know her name. I've never seen her real face."
He covered his face with his hands and began breathing heavily. "Now I have nothing again."
Lu Bancheng looked solemnly at Gu Yusheng in the dark for a long time before saying, "Don't be sad. You are still young. No one knows what's going to happen in the future. You'll meet a better girl and soon, too."
"No, I won't." Gu Yusheng said distantly. With those three words, he quietly snuffled.
