Chapter 873 - 914: This Irresponsible Jerk
Li Yifei responded with an acknowledgment and followed Michelle out. Michelle walked with her head down, silent until they reached the hospital’s parking lot. Only then did she stop, looked up at Li Yifei with a smile, and said, "You don’t need to see me off, I can just take a cab home."
Looking at Michelle’s unnatural smile, Li Yifei felt a sad amusement inside. The relationship between him and Michelle could not be said to be getting more complicated, but it definitely felt awkward when they were face to face.
Trying to appear casual, Li Yifei smiled and said, "Why hail a cab when there’s a car? I need to go home to pick up some things anyway, so I might as well give you a lift. Get in."
This time, Michelle did not protest and simply got into the car. However, as soon as Li Yifei drove out of the hospital, Michelle said, "Brother Li, about that night... I am already very content. From now on, I won’t have any more expectations of you. Brother Li, can we just be good friends from now on?"
Li Yifei drove slowly and let out a sigh before saying, "Michelle..."
Michelle beamed with a smile, interrupting Li Yifei’s words, "Brother Li, isn’t there a saying? ’It’s not about lifelong possession, but about having owned once.’ I’ve had my first kiss with you, and then there was that time on the island... Hehe, these memories are enough for me to cherish my entire life. Seeing you happy with Sister Yingying makes me even happier."
Li Yifei sighed again and said, "If you can think like that, then I support you. You are truly a good girl, and I can’t delay your happiness for life."
Michelle smiled sweetly and replied, "Yes, you already have Sister Yingying, and so many others who like being with you. One more or one less of me doesn’t make a difference. Maybe by not being with you, I’ll give you a bit of regret and you will remember me forever."
Li Yifei turned to glance at Michelle and saw that her smile was indeed radiant and sincere. Perhaps these were her true feelings, and his reluctance to get too close to Michelle was precisely because he didn’t want the pure image of this girl to be tainted in his mind. "Alright, then I wish you happiness, but remember, you can’t treat me as a stranger if you need anything in the future."
"Of course not, you are still my Brother Li. It’s only natural for a little sister to ask her brother for help, isn’t it?"
