It was a dark night. On a secluded avenue outside an underground boxing ring, there was an ordinary taxi parked with someone sitting in it, but all the lights were off.

In the darkness, the taxi driver sat in the main driver's seat and looked left and right out of the window, but didn't see a single person. He couldn't help but whisper to the person sitting behind him: "Girl, we've been waiting here for so long, but no one has come out?"

Shen Yao's figure was hidden in the darkness, and she replied calmly, "It will be soon."

The driver looked away and said with some frustration: "Okay then."

He had just finished speaking when suddenly—

At a corner not far ahead, a completely black SUV was driving towards this side.

At the same time, the system told Shen Yao: "Host, Xu Zhi is in that car."

Shen Yao pursed her lips and said to the driver, "That's the car, follow it."

The driver instantly became motivated, straightened his back and assured: "Don't worry, girl, I will catch up with you right away, and I promise I won't lose you."

......

When Xu Zhi found out that he was being followed by a taxi, he remained completely calm, not even an eyebrow moved.

but--

When passing a fork in the road, he suddenly turned the steering wheel with his hands and turned into the uneven narrow road that he rarely turned into normally.

So, after a while——

In the taxi following behind, Shen Yao, who had been resting with her eyes closed in the back seat, was forced to open her eyes by the shaking of the car.

Shen Yao:? ? ?

The driver was also wondering: "It's already this day and age, and there are still such shabby roads?"

Shen Yao:......

Good boy, could it be that you did it on purpose after you discovered that you were being followed?

The driver was still mumbling in front: "That's not right. I've been driving for so many years, but I've never seen this road before. Girl, do you know where this car you asked me to follow is going?"

Shen Yao replied: "If we knew, would we still need to follow closely?"

The driver suddenly realized: "That's right."

Half an hour later——

After a bumpy ride, Shen Yao and the driver finally followed Xu Zhi to his destination.

Shen Yao saw that the driver had a hard time driving along the way, so she gave him a little more when paying.

After receiving the money, the driver said happily: "Thank you, girl, but how are you going to get home after you finish your business? Do you really not need me to wait for you here?"

After getting off the car, Shen Yao glanced ahead before replying, "No, thank you."

The driver responded and prepared to turn around and leave.

But before leaving, he looked at the sign of this place from a distance with some curiosity. After seeing the words "Nanshan District Cemetery", he was suddenly shocked.

That girl just now...who is she?

Why would someone come to the cemetery alone at two or three in the morning and follow someone else?

The driver took a deep breath and didn't dare to think too much. Cold sweat was already breaking out on his back. So he stepped hard on the accelerator and left quickly.

......

After Xu Zhi got off the bus, he did not immediately register to enter the cemetery, but walked directly to the other side.

Under the third street light outside the cemetery gate, an old and thin figure was sitting on a tattered little chair and dozing with his eyes closed. In front of him were several half-old buckets with different kinds of flowers in them, mostly white and yellow chrysanthemums, but the bucket in the middle was the most eye-catching and special.

The reason was simple: it was a whole bucket filled to the brim with red roses, which stood out among all the light-colored flowers. Moreover, there were the largest number of them and they were the fullest, with what looked like about a hundred of them.

At such a time and place, such a large bucket of bright red roses, compared with the other flowers that have almost been sold out, looks like it is waiting for a dedicated buyer.

Sure enough, when Xu Zhi walked in front of the dozing old man, he suddenly opened his cloudy eyes as if sensing something, and said in a hoarse voice: "You're here. I almost thought you weren't coming today after waiting for so long."

Xu Zhi didn't say anything. He just lowered his head to look at the bucket of bright red roses, then took out an envelope containing cash and handed it to the old man.

The old man took the envelope with a smile, weighed it in his hand with satisfaction, and said, "It seems that today is a smooth day."

Xu Zhi hummed, and lightly tapped the red roses in the bucket with his fingertips, "Please help me pack up all the flowers."

The old man agreed with a smile, then neatly wrapped up all the roses and handed them to him, "When will you come again next time? I can prepare the roses in advance, mainly this. Usually you are the only one who buys them. Others who go to visit the grave only buy some white or yellow chrysanthemums or something like that."

Xu Zhi: "Maybe half a month later."

Old man: "Okay, I'll wait for you then."

Xu Zhi held a large bouquet of flowers in his hand, turned around and said, "It's okay if you wait or not, I'm leaving first, you should also pack up and go back early."

The old man said cheerfully towards his back: "You have to wait. After all, it's rare to find a big customer like you who can buy flowers for so many people. You must recognize me and don't buy flowers from others..."

At the end, the old man couldn't help laughing. He lowered his head and patted the bag tied to his waist which contained all the money he earned today. He whispered to himself, "I have the money for my wife's medical treatment this month."

Just as he was contentedly preparing to close his stall and go home, he looked up and a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, which scared him out of his wits!

"Grandpa, I want all these flowers. How much are they? Please help me pack them all."

Old man:!!!

How could a girl come to a place like this in the middle of the night?

Could it be that this girl knows the boy just now?

"Do you want all of these?" he asked.

"Well, I want them all." Shen Yao said.

"Okay." The old man quickly and skillfully wrapped the remaining flowers for her.

......

When Shen Yao was holding flowers and following Xu Zhi to register her personal information and prepare to enter the cemetery, the security guard at the gate looked at her several times in surprise.

Finally, the other party couldn't help but ask, "It's so late, are you going in to...?"

Shen Yao said calmly, "I came to see a friend."

Seeing that she seemed mentally stable, the security guard felt relieved and opened the gate to let her pass.

After walking away——

The system couldn't help but ask Shen Yao: "By the way, host, why don't you let the taxi driver wait for you outside? How are you going to leave here then?"

Shen Yao: "Take Xu Zhi's car back."

The system was surprised: "Don't you know each other yet? What if he doesn't let you sit? What's the matter?"

Shen Yao smiled: "It's my bad luck."
