This life meeting you is my greatest fortune, and I am proud of it.
My dearest friend, one day in the future, I will also make you proud.
Our friendship took root in the autumn with leaves fluttering down, sprouted in the cold winter, and parted in the blossoming spring. The harsh winter did not defeat us; instead, it made us trust and grow more. I believe that in the future, we will reunite in a summer filled with stars like a sea.
Our brief separation is to pursue a better tomorrow, to make our friendship like aged wine, ever more fragrant.
I'm leaving! To pursue, to strive, for a better tomorrow. Like a phoenix spreading its wings, my future will soar to the heavens, standing on the world's stage, bringing glory to the country. Let the whole world know that in the distant East, there is an ancient country brimming with new vitality.
Don't worry!
Your closest friend, Liu Yilan.
