A few weeks later, Evan's life gradually returned to normal. He began participating in community activities and reconnecting with old friends. 0
 
With Michelle's encouragement and support, Evan learned to let go of the past and look forward. 0
 
 
As for Victoria, Evan chose to let go. He no longer pursued, nor was he angry. He understood that only by letting go could he truly be free. 0
 
In this difficult journey, Evan learned forgiveness and acceptance. His spirit became stronger and more mature. 0
 
 
On a warm spring afternoon in Taipei, a bustling street, a stylish and elegant café, familiar music gently plays. 0
 
 
Evan sat in the seat by the window, his gaze piercing through the glass as he stared at the bustling street scene outside. Since things with Victoria had come to an end, it seemed like his life had started on a whole new path. 0
 
In the past few weeks, Evan had thrown himself into various community activities, reconnected with old friends, and rediscovered the joy and value of life. His mood had also gradually calmed, breaking free from the pain and confusion of the past. 0
 
 
While Evan was lost in thought, a slight commotion at the door interrupted his train of thought. He looked up to see a familiar figure, Michelle, entering the café with a group of friends. 0
 
Michelle's gaze swept around the café, and when her eyes met Evan's, she paused for a moment and then offered a warm smile. Evan smiled back and gestured for her to come over. 0
 
 
"Hi, Evan, long time no see," Michelle walked up to Evan's desk, with a warm smile on her face. 0
 
"Yeah, it's been a while. You look great," Evan's voice carried sincere concern. 0
 
 
Michelle nodded, her eyes revealing a pleasant surprise at Evan's transformation. "You too, Evan. You look like you've cast all your worries aside." 0
 
Evan smiled gently, his eyes hinting at a depth of emotion. "Some things, you can only truly free yourself by letting go." 0
 
 
Michelle sat down and chatted with Evan about recent developments. She talked about her relationship with David, as well as her recent work and life. Evan shared about the community activities he's been involved in, as well as some of his future plans. 0
 
"It sounds like you've been very fulfilled lately, Evan," Michelle's eyes were full of admiration. 0
 
 
Evan nodded, "Yes, I have learned to see life from a new perspective and found the motivation to move forward." 0
 
The conversation between the two flowed naturally and effortlessly, as if time had not left any barriers between them. 0
 
 
As the conversation deepened, Evan's eyes gradually revealed a deep concern and lingering affection for Michelle. 0
 
He noticed a delicate chain on Michelle's wrist and asked with a slight smile, "Is this from David? It looks very fitting on you." 0
 
 
Michelle gently touched the bracelet, a subtle expression appearing on her face. "Yes, it was a gift from David on his last birthday," she said with a barely perceptible hesitation in her voice. 0
 
Evan noticed Michelle's emotions and softly said, "Michelle, I hope you find happiness. No matter who you're with, you deserve the best." 0
 
 
Michelle looked up, her eyes shimmering with complex emotions, and gently replied, "Thank you, Evan. I also hope you can find your own happiness." 0
 
Just then, Michelle's phone vibrated. She took it out, glanced at the screen, and a subtle expression appeared on her face. Evan noticed this change and asked, "Is everything okay?" 0
 
 
"It's David. He asked me when I'll be coming home," Michelle sighed softly, seeming to struggle a bit. 0
 
Evan nodded slightly, his voice tinged with a hint of regret. "Then I won't disturb you. I hope we can still have a chance to chat like this in the future." 0
 
 
Michelle stood up, with a grateful smile on her face: "Of course there will be, Evan. Thank you for your time today." 0
 
Evan watched Michelle leave, his heart filled with complex emotions. 0
 
 
Watching her figure disappear outside the café, Evan deeply felt a sense of loss and helplessness. 0
 
He understood that perhaps the story between himself and Michelle had already turned its final page. 0
 
 
Evan sat alone by the window, the bustling street outside unchanged. 0
 
His thoughts drifted again, recalling the moments he shared with Michelle. However, he also understood that life is always full of twists and unknowns. 0
 
 
He lifted his head and looked out at the bustling street scene, making a new decision in his heart: to continue moving forward towards his own future. 0
 
On the other side, Michelle and David were walking home together. 0
 
 
David sensed that Michelle was somewhat absent-minded, so he asked with concern, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?" 0
 
Michelle smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing, just thinking about some past things." 0
 
 
David gently held her hand and said, "No matter what happened in the past, we both have a future to look forward to." 0
 
Michelle looked into David's eyes, filled with gratitude. No matter what the future holds, she will never be alone again. 0
 
 
She continued walking hand in hand with David, slowly blending into the lights and crowds of Taipei in the night. 0
 
 
A few months later, Evan and Michelle met again at a gathering of mutual friends. 0
 
This gathering took place at a unique restaurant in Taipei, with its decor combining modern and traditional elements to create a comfortable and cozy atmosphere. 0
 
 
Evan walked into the restaurant, wearing a simple and elegant dark blue shirt paired with lightweight trousers, giving him a stylish and mature look. 0
 
His face appeared fresher than a few months ago, with a confident and calm look in his eyes. With his arrival, the atmosphere of the gathering seemed livelier. 0
 
 
Michelle sat at a table in the corner, wearing an elegant long skirt, her hair gently pinned up, showcasing her mature feminine charm. 0
 
When she saw Evan, a subtle emotion arose in her heart. Since their last meeting at the coffee shop, she seemed to have gained a new understanding and evaluation of her feelings for Evan. 0
 
 
Evan walked towards Michelle with a smile and politely greeted her, "Hi, Michelle, it's nice to see you again." 0
 
Michelle replied with a smile, "Hi, Evan, you look great." 0
 
 
As dinner progressed, the conversation between Evan and Michelle flowed naturally and lightly. 0
 
Evan talked about a recent volunteer activity he participated in, as well as some new plans at work. Michelle listened, nodding occasionally, feeling surprised and impressed by Evan's changes. 0
 
 
"You've really changed a lot, Evan," Michelle said sincerely. "I'm glad to see you've found your own path." 0
 
A hint of gratitude flashed in Evan's eyes. "Thank you, Michelle. I couldn't have done it without the support you gave me in the past." 0
 
 
After dinner, Evan and Michelle walked out of the restaurant together. The night in Taipei seemed particularly charming. They strolled down the street, discussing life and future plans. 0
 
Michelle felt a flutter of emotion. Evan's stability and maturity left a deep impression on her. She began to reconsider her relationship with Evan and her feelings for him. 0
 
 
"Evan, do you have any plans for the future?" Michelle asked curiously. 0
 
Evan stopped in his tracks, gazing into Michelle's eyes, and replied firmly, "I hope to continue helping the community and also find someone to truly share life with." 0
 
 
Michelle's heart skipped a beat as she felt Evan's eyes filled with sincerity and anticipation. She let out a soft sigh as her emotions became increasingly complex. 0
 
"Evan, I..." Michelle was about to speak when her phone suddenly rang. It was David calling. 0
 
 
Evan noticed and said with a smile, "You should answer the phone." 0
 
Michelle nodded and answered the phone. After the call, she said to Evan, "Sorry, I have to go. David is waiting for me." 0
 
 
Evan nodded, his smile masking the disappointment in his heart. "Of course, I wish you all a pleasant evening," he said. 0
 
Michelle hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked away. 0
 
 
She walked in the night, her heart filled with contradictions and contemplation. Evan's changes and maturity gave her a new perspective on him, but at the same time, she was aware of her relationship with David, and the past hurt was still vivid. Michelle shook her head, stopped thinking about it, and continued walking forward. 0
 
 
Evan stood alone on the street, watching Michelle's figure disappear into the crowd. 0
 
He felt a complex mix of emotions in his heart. His feelings for Michelle still existed, but he also understood that he couldn't force anything anymore. 0
 
 
At night, Taipei city is still bustling, with flashing lights and people coming and going. 0
 
Evan takes a deep breath and continues his night journey, filled with hope for the future and acceptance of the present reality. 0
