Ji Yinbing forced herself to look at Craven’s corpse. When she saw the injuries on Craven’s body, Ji Yinbing, whose heart was as hard as a stone, collapsed. Craven’s golden hair still seemed to be emitting the smell of sunlight, but there was dark red blood in his hair. His entire back was blurry with flesh and blood.

  A thin fragment of the bus drove into his heart from his back.

  If he had not used his body to block it, this fragment would have pierced the pregnant woman’s head.

  The fragment that was embedded in his heart pierced Ji Yinbing’s eyes. She finally couldn’t help but cry.

  Ji Yinbing stared blankly at the corpse in front of her.

  Just half an hour ago, he had been joking around with her and imagining a chance encounter with her on a trip. But now, he was a corpse lying on the ground. The blood had dried and the heat in his body was slowly draining

  Realizing that he was really dead, Ji Yinbing burst into tears.

  “Get up!”


  “Who allowed you to die! Who allowed you to die!”


  “Craven, how can you die…” Ji Yinbing leaned on Craven’s head and hugged his head with her hands, her fingers constantly touching Craven’s hair.

  Craven could no longer hear her.

  Ji Yinbing cried her heart out. She cried and scolded, “You shouldn’t have changed seats with me. No one will feel sorry for me even if I die. You’re different. Olivia is getting married soon. You still have a family. Why are you so bad!”


  “Craven! Get up!”


  No matter how Ji Yinbing scolded and begged, Craven would never be able to stand up.

  Gradually, Ji Yinbing cried until her voice was hoarse, and she could not make a sound. Ji Yinbing never expected that the first time she took the initiative to hug Craven was actually to hug his corpse.

  Craven’s body and the bodies of his other colleagues were placed on another plane and transported back to Geneva.

  Ji Yinbing watched as Craven’s body was sent to be cremated.

  After he was cremated, Ji Yinbing took a small box containing his ashes. After knowing that Ji Yinbing was going to bring Craven’s body back to America, the leader handed Craven’s remains to Ji Yinbing and asked her to pass it to Olivia.

  Craven had very few relics. Other than books and clothes, there was only a computer, a broken phone, and a wallet. Ji Yinbing helped Craven pack his things. The clothes he wore when he died were mixed with dried blood.

  Ji Yinbing looked at this outfit and could not help but feel her heart ache.

  She searched inside her clothes and found a wallet.

  The wallet looked relatively new and was also a branded product. Ji Yinbing put it in her bag with other things.

  Ji Yinbing had to inform Olivia in advance. Otherwise, she would definitely scare the kind girl if she brought Craven’s body back. However, Craven’s phone was already scrapped and could not be turned on. Ji Yinbing did not have Olivia’s number.

  Ji Yinbing thought about it and opened Craven’s wallet with the intention of giving it a

  try.

  The situation in America was chaotic. Many people were worried that an accident would happen, so they would write down their family contact details and addresses before putting them in their wallets so that it was easier for others to contact their families when they saw them. This was to prevent them from being lonely ghosts who had died in a foreign land.

  Ji Yinbing wrote a piece of paper.

  Ji Yinbing searched Craven’s wallet and really found a folded piece of paper.

  On the paper, there was their home address in New York and Boston in America, as well as Olivia’s and his parents’ phone numbers. Ji Yinbing struggled for a while before calling Olivia.

  When she heard the girl’s puzzled voice on the other end of the phone, Ji Yinbing opened her mouth but felt a stabbing pain in her throat and could not speak.

  “Hello?”


  Olivia wondered if she had called the wrong number. But seeing that it was a transnational call, and it was from Geneva, she was afraid that her brother had called.

  It was not until she heard the heavy breathing on the other end that Olivia confirmed that the other party was still on the phone.

  “I’m Olivia. Is it Craven?”


  Olivia sounded puzzled and expectant.

  When Ji Yinbing heard the name Craven, she felt even more ashamed.

  “Hey, Craven, why aren’t you talking?” Olivia was extremely confused.

  Ji Yinbing finally found the way to speak. She called Olivia’s name in a hoarse and sobbing voice. “Olivia?”


  Olivia was quiet for a moment before saying, “Who are you?”


  “… Bing.”


  “Hi, long time no see. I often hear my brother mention you. Are you with my brother?” Olivia was clearly very familiar with Ji Yinbing. This had something to do with Craven always mentioning Ji Yinbing on the phone.

  Ji Yinbing said softly, “I’m sorry, Olivia…”


  There was silence on Olivia’s end.

  A moment later, Olivia asked her in an uneasy tone, “Where’s my brother? Bing, ask my brother to listen to the phone!”


  Ji Yinbing repeated, “I’m sorry, Olivia. Craven can’t answer your call anymore…”


  When Ji Yinbing hung up the phone, her eyes were red.

  She did not dare to think about how sad and distraught Olivia would be after she received this news.

  She wiped her eyes and folded the piece of paper where she had written the phone and put it back in her wallet. When Ji Yinbing stuffed the piece of paper back into its original place, she realized that there was still something inside. Ji Yinbing had to take the things out and put them in together before the inner compartment could be put down.

  Ji Yinbing pulled the thing out and realized that it was a photo. The back of the photo was facing up. She thought that it was a photo of him and Olivia, so she turned the photo over.

  The next second, Ji Yinbing’s gaze froze.

  There was a man and a woman in the photo.

  She stared at Craven in the photo and the girl in his arms. Her breathing gradually slowed.

  The girl was not Olivia, but her when she was 20.

  This photo was taken by Craven when he graduated. Ji Yinbing was expressionless at that time. Craven despised her and even made her smile at the camera. Ji Yinbing really smiled. Craven was quick and fixed the moment she smiled.

  At that time, he said that she looked good when she smiled and made her smile more.

  He even stole a kiss on her forehead.

  Ji Yinbing’s thoughts were pulled back from her distant memories. She looked at the photo in her hand and gradually, her eyes warmed.

  “It’s not worth it…”


  It was clearly her who deserved to die.

  Ji Yinbing returned to America the next morning. She carried Craven’s urn and Craven’s belongings to Olivia’s house in a taxi.

  Olivia’s house was an ordinary three-story courtyard with patches of crepe myrtle flowers planted on the front door. Ji Yinbing crossed the crepe myrtle road to Craven’s house at the end of the flower road. She stood outside Craven’s house, her fingertips trembling when she rang the doorbell.

  Outside Olivia’s house, Ji Yinbing’s fingers were trembling when she rang the doorbell.

  After about a minute, the door opened from the inside.

  Olivia’s boyfriend opened the door.
