The list of bus passengers was revealed one by one, and without a second glance, he spotted Jing Haohao’s name.
…
At that time, Liang Chen was answering a phone call from his mother, a call he had being avoiding since her first call last night when she learned Su Yan had proposed to cancel the wedding.
He nonchalantly pulled out a dining chair, sat down, and casually pointed out a few foods he regularly ate, from the menu Nanny Lin had handed him. Then, grabbing the remote, he turned the volume of the television down slightly. While watching the television, he listened to his mother on the phone inquiring about what had happened between him and Su Yan that led to the cancellation of their engagement.
Liang Chen looked at the television where it displayed a red cautionary scroll, inside of which were several traffic police officers going back and forth. He didn’t seem too interested in his mother’s ongoing chatter on the phone.
“Chen, Chen? Are you even listening to me?” Liang Chen’s mother had been talking for a while without hearing any response from her son. Unable to help it, her voice raised slightly as she had been looking forward to her younger son finally settling down. Then unexpectedly, all was lost at the last moment.

Liang Chen slightly brought his mind back, answered with a “Hmm?” into the phone, and continued to stare at the television screen.
The TV anchor reported the severity of this accident, expressing in a mournful tone that the valley was tens of meters deep and it was feared that no one would survive.
Liang Chen’s mother, annoyed at his nonchalant attitude, was somewhat angry, she said: “Chen, are you in the villa now? I’m getting ready to come over, wait for me at home.”
Liang Chen probably heard the anger in his mother’s voice and his tone became slightly serious as he stated, “Mom, whatever you want to say you can say it on the phone. You don’t have to come over.”
Seeing her son finally taking the conversation seriously, his mother’s tone softened a little, she asked, “Chen, be honest with me, what’s going on between you and Su Yan?”
On the television, the host announced in a solemn tone: “Next, we will announce the list of passengers involved in this accident. We hope that the families can go to the relevant departments to claim compensation.”
Liang Chen frowned and said to his mother on the phone: “Mom, this is between me and Miss Su, you don’t need to worry about it.”
“Chen, Su Yan was introduced to you by me and was chosen by you. Now this has happened, how could I possibly not be involved? Your father and I have a good relationship with Su Yan’s parents. I’m afraid you’ve done something to upset Su Yan and it will make things awkward between your father and I and Su Yan’s parents.”
Liang Chen was eating the lunch Nanny Lin had brought in, occasionally lifting his head to look at the TV screen as the host read the names of the victims. After swallowing a mouthful of porridge, he said into the phone, “Mom, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing …”
At that moment, his gaze caught a familiar name on the television screen out of the corner of his eye.
He furrowed his brows tightly, and without thinking, put down his phone. After less than half a minute, he heard the host say “Jing Haohao”.
Liang Chen froze. For a moment, it was as if he had turned to stone, immobilized in his chair.
