"Thankfully, today there’s sothing to be happy about. I found a place to stay. The landlords are a Chinese couple who are very nice, and they gave a good deal on the rent. I did tell them a little lie, though, because I told them I was looking for my lover. I’m pretty bad, right? I let go of your hand first, and now I’m shalessly claiming you as my lover. But Gu Ningyi... if I had known that letting go would lead to this, I would never have let go of your hand."
"It’s been a month. I’ve walked through every street and alley. Los Angeles is always so lively, always so crowded, yet none of those people are you. Gu Ningyi, where have you gone? I know you’re mad at , and that’s why you don’t want to show up. You have every right to be angry with . I never fulfilled the promises I made to you. But if that’s the case, please show up quickly, even if you want to hit or scold —just please don’t disappear."
"Gu Ningyi, it’s again. I’m sorry for calling so late today because I went to the police station and the hospital. Today, while looking for you, I accidentally wandered into a sketchy area and didn’t notice it had gotten dark. My bag was snatched by a motorcycle gang, and they even tripped . My arm and knee are scraped; it hurts so much. I used to never be afraid of pain, no matter how much it hurt I wouldn’t cry, but today was embarrassing. I sat there on the ground and cried for a long ti because I thought if you were there, I wouldn’t have been bullied. You shouldn’t have spoiled into being so delicate and then left. I really want to hate you, I really do, but I miss you even more. If you feel sorry for , could you please show up?"
"That’s right, it’s again. My wounds have healed. I recovered quickly, didn’t I? I haven’t gone out to look for you these past few days. I’ve been diligent with my dicine, eating right, and resting, so I can get better faster and go out and search for you with full energy. So, wish luck today to find you."
"Hi, it’s . The weather’s been terrible these past few days; it’s been raining nonstop. There are fewer people on the streets, but the rain obscures my vision. I can’t tell if you’re among them. If you are, could you give a call back? I can go anywhere, no matter how far, okay?"
"Secretary Lin called . She’s cald down and accepted the fact that you’re no longer here. But I don’t want to hear anyone say that you’re gone. You’re definitely still sowhere waiting for . I have so much to tell you, and we have so many things left to do. How could you be gone?"
"I don’t know how many people have called a lunatic, but I don’t think I’m crazy. They just can’t understand . But that’s okay; it doesn’t matter if they don’t understand because I know you will."
"I don’t even know how long I’ve been looking for you. I used to count the days, counting when I would find you. Now I just hope that soday, sohow I will find you, and whenever that is, I’ll be grateful."

Each and every ssage recorded Dong Xin Yan’s efforts to find him, and Gu Ningyi listened in a daze, his dark pupils contracting sharply, his mind blank.
Dong Xin Yan searched for him, he knew. But he didn’t know that Dong Xin Yan, even believing him to be dead, persisted in looking for him.
