Officer Li twitched his mouth, and when he saw Yu Zhenping scream in frustration, he kicked him lightly. "Quiet!"

Then he gave Jiang Yiqing a look, signaling him to stop. "Alright, enough. If you keep provoking him, Yu Zhenping might lose it completely."

However, Jiang Yiqing seemed completely unaware of the look in Officer Li's eyes and curiously asked, "Officer Li, by the way, do you guys provide diapers in prison?"

Officer Li twitched at the corner of his mouth. "I'm not too familiar with the prison side."

"Is that so?" Jiang Yiqing crossed his arms and shook his head. "If they don't provide them, the other inmates sharing a cell with him are going to have a hard time..."

Prisoners weren't exactly saints, and with someone like Yu Zhenping, life in prison was probably going to be tough for him.

On the side, Shang Yi smiled faintly. The worse Yu Zhenping had it, the happier she felt.

Clearly, Yu Zhenping also realized that his future would be unbearable. He was falling apart and even thought about suicide, but lacked the courage to go through with it.

Jiang Yiqing was about to leave with Shang Yi to help her move on peacefully, but before they could leave, a young man in his twenties hurriedly ran in.

The young man didn't recognize Jiang Yiqing, so he didn't stop, rushing over to ask the police something in a hurry.

At first, Jiang Yiqing didn't pay much attention, but Shang Yi suddenly stopped and stared at the young man in the distance. There was a trace of sadness on her face.

Jiang Yiqing halted and asked, "Do you know him?"

Before Shang Yi could answer, they overheard the young man telling the police that he was Shang Yi's boyfriend.

The young man was called Chi Zhisen, a classmate of Shang Yi's from university. Though they were in different majors, they gradually became close after enrolling in the same department, developing feelings for each other, and quickly confirming their relationship.

They had been together for two years, but when it came time for their internships, they were assigned to different places because of their different majors.

Chi Zhisen studied computer science, which kept him very busy, and the time he spent with Shang Yi decreased. At that point, he didn't notice anything wrong with her and thought she was just adjusting to her internship. He even comforted her.

However, everything changed one day when he was working overtime at the company. He received a call from Shang Yi's parents, crying on the other end of the line, telling him that Shang Yi had committed suicide.

Chi Zhisen initially thought they were joking. Shang Yi? Suicide? Impossible!

Shang Yi had always been so cheerful and lively. In fact, Chi Zhisen often had down days, but Shang Yi was always like a little sun, buying him gifts and making funny faces to cheer him up.

At that time, Chi Zhisen used to say, "Why are you so carefree, like nothing can ever get you down?"

Shang Yi never thought of it as a bad thing. She just tilted her head and winked at him, saying, "Why be sad? Whether happy or sad, it's still a day, so why make myself unhappy?"

Chi Zhisen would then pinch her nose and say, "You're so heartless."

"Haha, isn't being heartless a good thing?" Shang Yi laughed, trying to dodge, complaining, "Don't pinch my nose! It'll make me ugly!"

The Shang Yi in his memories was always so lively, so full of life—someone who seemed like nothing could ever make her sad. Chi Zhisen just couldn't bring himself to believe she could have taken her own life.

But the police concluded that Shang Yi had indeed committed suicide, and Chi Zhisen couldn't understand why. So he kept coming to the police station, hoping for a different answer.

Now, the truth behind Shang Yi's death had finally come to light. Chi Zhisen's face was covered in tears as he clutched his head, murmuring to himself, "It's all my fault... I was always too busy with work. If I had cared more about her, she wouldn't have gone through this. Ah Yi must hate me... it's all my fault..."

Shang Yi couldn't hold it in any longer. She ran in front of Chi Zhisen, wanting to tell him that it wasn't his fault and she didn't blame him. But when she stood in front of him, she hesitated.

She looked at Chi Zhisen and whispered, "I don't blame you. It's not your fault. Please, don't blame yourself."

Unfortunately, Chi Zhisen couldn't hear her words. Shang Yi turned to Jiang Yiqing and pleaded, "Master Jiang, please don't tell him I'm here."

Jiang Yiqing, feeling a little troubled, cursed Yu Zhenping in his mind before sighing. He walked over to Chi Zhisen and said, "Shang Yi said she doesn't blame you. She hopes you can live a good life."

Chi Zhisen suddenly looked up, his eyes shining with tears. He scanned his surroundings and called out, "Ah Yi is here, right? She's here, isn't she?"

His sharp eyes searched around Jiang Yiqing.

Jiang Yiqing and Shang Yi both jumped in surprise. For a split second, they almost thought Chi Zhisen could actually see Shang Yi.

But judging by the emptiness in Chi Zhisen's eyes, it was obvious he wasn't seeing her.

"You... you said she told you something—she's still here, right?" Chi Zhisen couldn't see anything, so he turned to Jiang Yiqing again, like he was clinging to his last hope.

Jiang Yiqing didn't say anything.

Chi Zhisen pleaded, "Please, I'm begging you, just let me see her once. I just want to see her once."

He could clearly feel that Jiang Yiqing wasn't an ordinary person. And with the way he spoke, Chi Zhisen held onto that tiny shred of hope, begging Jiang Yiqing to let him see the person he thought about day and night.
