I'm very sorry for your loss. [Shen Yuan shifts uncomfortably, cognizant of the man's grief but unsure how to handle it. Even though he was the one who offered to listen in the first place. Why does he do these things to himself...?]

Death is...always difficult, for those who are left behind. But it is not necessarily the end...I know this for a fact. There is always a chance, however small, that maybe...you know. Maybe you'll see your friend again some day.

[can he die again now, this is too mortifying to live through]
