Tu Yilei didn’t seem to hear him.
He was still looking in the direction that Mo Yesi left in. No matter how much Michael talked to him, he remained silent.
“Little Tu Tu, did you hear what I said!” Seeing that he didn’t respond, Michael was so angry that he stomped his foot. “Stop thinking about that girl, she has no chance with you! Calm down and focus on your career.
“When your career is stable in the future, you can get married if you want to, let alone be in a relationship! But now, don’t think about all that. Keep your heart with you, do you hear me?”
“Michael…”
A while later, Tu Yilei finally spoke.
He retracted his gaze and turned to look at Michael calmly. “Do you know?”
Michael frowned. “Know what?”
Tu Yilei smiled. “This is my first time liking someone.”
Michael was speechless.
“This is the first time I’m attracted to a girl. I know you think that since we’ve only just met, I don’t have a deep relationship with her, so I can let her go quickly. Even I think so too.”
“Little Tu, what are you trying to say?”
Tu Yilei smiled again. “I just feel so indignant. I’ve waited for so many years for someone like her, but it hasn’t even begun, and it has to end.
“I don’t even have a chance to fight for it. I have to force myself to give up.
“Michael, do you know how terrible this feeling is? It’s been a long time… since I’ve been in such a terrible mood.”
Michael frowned and kept quiet for a while. Then, he sighed and said, “Little Tu, I used to be young too. I used to like people too. So, I can understand how you feel now. But you’ve seen it for yourself, she has a boyfriend.
“Her boyfriend looks like an outstanding man. He’s a good match for her.
“Don’t tell me you want to interfere.”
“I never thought of that.”
“That’s right. So, besides giving up, what else can you do? This just shows that you two aren’t fated to be together. If you really can’t let her go, I won’t force you to. If you still want to like her, then just like her.”
Tu Yilei looked up in surprise. “Michael, you…”
“Your heart is with you. If you insist on liking her, what can I do to you? But you should know it in your heart. Just keep your feelings to yourself and don’t show them.”
Tu Yilei pursed his lips and kept quiet.
Michael didn’t say anything else and quietly stayed by his side.
After a long while, he loosened his fists and said, “Mm, I got it.”
Michael stared at him. “You understand?”
“Mm.”
“That’s good.” Michael patted him on the shoulder. “Let’s go, it’s getting late. Go back and rest early. You have to get up early tomorrow morning.”
Qiao Mianmian was sound asleep.
Mo Yesi carried her into the room and gently placed her on the bed. She didn’t show any signs of waking up.
Seeing that she was sleeping so soundly, he couldn’t bear to wake her up. He went to the luggage and found a shirt. He gently took off her clothes and helped her change into it.
