It wasn't until Mi Cai stopped crying that I let her go, wiped the tears from her face with my hand, and whispered to her, "Sleep now, I'll sit here with you, waiting for you to fall asleep."

Mi Cai nodded, and I helped her straighten her pillow and lie down, stroking her hair, signaling her to rest quickly. She obediently closed her eyes but then asked me, "Zhao Yang, can you sing a song for me?"

"What do you want to hear?"

"Faye Wong's 'Reserved.'"

I smiled, "That song is about a reserved woman, not a reserved man. You should sing it to me instead."

Mi Cai nodded and began to sing before me, "I've never resisted your charm, even though you've never been enchanted by me. I always watch you with a smile, my affection easily brimming in my eyes. I once thought that on a lonely night, you would finally care, in my room, you closed your eyes and kissed me, holding me tightly in your arms without a word. I love you, I love you to the end, for the first time in my life I let go of my reserve, allowing myself to fantasize about everything between you and me. You love me, you love me to the end, for the first time in my life I let go of my reserve, believing that I can truly love you deeply..."
