I spent two days arranging all the procedures for Li Wei, and even booked a luxurious cremation package to comfort his spirit in heaven.

Clearly, when he was taken in, there was still a human form, but two hours later, all that was left was a small handful of ashes.

As I held the deluxe urn I had customized for Li Wei, I couldn't help but thank him in my heart.

Li Wei, oh Li Wei, I never expected that despite your many wrongdoings, you would still manage to do a good deed even in death.

I hurriedly took the urn to the police station to handle Li Wei's deregistration procedures.

Watching the young man at the station cut a corner off Li Wei's ID card, he considerately asked if I wanted to keep the corner as a memento. I pretended to be overwhelmed with grief, burying my face behind the urn, afraid the young man would see the smile creeping up on my face.

With the death certificate and urn in hand, looking at the cloudless sky outside the police station, I felt great.

This was the most relaxed day I had experienced in the four years of my marriage. Even when I saw a pickpocket being brought in by the police, I cheerfully smiled at him, almost scaring the thief.

But there will always be someone to rain on my parade when I'm happiest.

It's okay though.

They probably don't know that I, as a person, love lively and bustling scenes the most.
