Before Jia Yu left on a business trip, Tang Yihe was still giving him the silent treatment, though it was entirely one-sided.
He resolved that when Jia Yu got back, he would make sure they talked things through.
As expected, the one-sided cold war turned into a one-sided argument.
Halfway through the argument, Tang Yihe even had time to reflect: Jia Yu really was a lawyer. He gave him plenty of time to make his case and never interrupted. He let Tang Yihe's anger blaze fiercely, then slowly die down to nothing.
At the moment he was hit by the car, only one thought remained in Tang Yihe's mind: Why was I arguing with him? I only ever wanted to protect him and make him happy.
Tang Yihe had been in love with Jia Yu for ten years.
From the day they became neighbors at seventeen to the day he was struck by a car on a crosswalk at twenty-seven, he had asked Jia Yu many times, “Do you like me?” Jia Yu had never answered.
After becoming a spirit, Tang Yihe stayed by Jia Yu's side and discovered many things he had never known.
And those things were Jia Yu's feelings.
