Story summary

While clearing out a living room before surrendering the lease, Xu Qing invites former roommate Qin Zhou back to collect his remaining vinyl records and discovers a travel itinerary they once planned tucked inside. She had always thought he left without saying goodbye, while he assumed the agency had already conveyed news of his departure. Facing an itinerary that has long since lapsed, neither rushes to compensate for the past; instead, they verify the ownership of belongings one by one, earnestly carrying out the farewell that had been deferred for years.
