Chapter 178 Unwavering Love



The system's comfort doesn't seem to have any effect.

Jiang Sui decided to give up communicating with this system that only knew how to issue tasks, was meticulous in its work, and rarely showed any human touch, and to give up the matter between himself and Xiang Baiwei.

"What tasks do you have today? Show them to me." Jiang Sui patted his cheeks to refresh himself.

There is no use being depressed. You still have to concentrate on completing tasks and accumulating points. Only when you have enough points can you use them to love your wife.

[Today's task is to help a 60-year-old grandfather visit his wife's grave.]

After hearing the content of the task clearly, Jiang Sui was a little surprised: "Today's task seems a little too simple."

Immediately afterwards, after listening to the system's explanation, Jiang Sui immediately said that he wanted to take back what he had just said.

"You said that this old man is all alone in the world?" Jiang Sui sighed, "Then doesn't he have a very hard life?"

[He was arranged to live in a particularly good sanatorium, but this sanatorium was in another province, thousands of miles away from his wife's grave. He wanted to visit his wife's grave before he died.]

Jiang Sui listened to what the system said, and his expression also became depressed: "In his last moments, should we be good people to the end, and bury the old man with his wife after he dies?"

[The old man has made this request. This is the next task. If you are willing, I can assign it to you when it is refreshed.]

Jiang Sui nodded: "Let me arrange it. I'll do my best to help you."

After saying that, Jiang Sui entered the teleportation aperture.

The aperture teleported him to the back garden of the sanatorium.

There, the old man who was the target of this mission was sitting alone on a bench, staring blankly at the scenery in the distance, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Perhaps he was reminiscing about his life.

Jiang Sui walked over on the fallen leaves and squatted in front of the old man.

The old man noticed someone approaching, slowly lowered his head, looked at Jiang Sui, and smiled: "Young man, who are you?"

Somehow, Jiang Sui felt a little sad. He controlled his emotions and smiled back: "Uncle, you have a wish to fulfill, right? I am here to help you fulfill that wish."

The old man's eyes lit up: "You are sent by God to help me fulfill my wish, right?"

Jiang Sui nodded: "You have been kind and generous throughout your life, doing good deeds and accumulating virtues. This is the blessing you have accumulated."

"Can I be so blessed as to see Ah Xiang again?" A hope that had not existed before rose in the old man's cloudy eyes.

Jiang Sui was moved by this love that never changes, but he couldn't do anything beyond his ability: "I'm sorry, uncle, I can only take you back to your hometown and revisit the old place. I'm not capable of anything else and can't help you."

The old man was quite open-minded: "It is my great fortune to have someone like you here to help me fulfill my wish. I know the rest and I won't make it difficult for you. Then, when can you take me back to my hometown? I am really short of time..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Sui had already sensed the helplessness in his tone.

"Let's set off now. I'll take you back to your hometown to revisit it."

The old man was helped up by him and walked tremblingly towards the light circle in the distance.

On the way there, the old man was still a little worried: "There is still an hour left, and the young man who takes care of me will come to take me back. If we just disappear like this, will it be bad? Will it make him worry?"

"Don't worry, uncle. I'll take care of this for you." Jiang Sui comforted him and took him into the light circle.

Jiang Sui took out the key given by the system and opened the door.

The old man stood trembling in front of the door, feeling timid and afraid to go in.

Jiang Sui understood his feelings very well and stood by and waited patiently.

After a long, long time, the old man finally raised his foot, opened the door and walked in.

Memories of the past came flooding back to him, and the old man suddenly burst into tears.

Jiang Sui took out a handkerchief and handed it to him, then quietly followed the old man from room to room.

After a long time, the old man sat on the sofa, holding the hot tea that Jiang Sui poured from the system, and sighed: "I got this house because of my excellent work ability. I got my wedding here in the winter of that year, and I have lived here with my wife ever since..."

The old man's past years were very exciting, and he couldn't stop talking about it.

By the time he finally stopped talking, it was already dark outside.

Jiang Sui looked out the window and reluctantly reminded: "Shall I take you to your wife's cemetery?"

"It's time to go." The old man put the cup on the table and stood up with the help of his seat. "When you get old, you do things slowly. Once you recall, you can't stop. I hope I didn't waste your time?"

"No, my main task today is to accompany you. You don't have to worry about me. You just need to do what you want to do." Jiang Sui supported the old man, opened the transmission aperture, and took him to the suburban cemetery.

At this time, the old man suddenly held out his hand: "Wait a minute, I have to dress up before meeting Ah Xiang. Ah Xiang likes to be clean, and she hates it most when I go to see her without any grooming."

Jiang Sui understood his feelings very well. After nodding in agreement, he remembered something and entered the system mall. He used his points to exchange a set of clothes and a pair of shiny leather shoes for the old man.

Before coming out, he followed the old man's instructions and specially prepared a bunch of pink lilies that his wife A Xiang loved the most.

The old man was extremely happy when he saw the pink lilies.

When they arrived at the cemetery, Jiang Sui sent the old man to the grave of his wife A Xiang, and then he considerately stepped aside to give him space to talk to his wife.

It was already evening, and the sunset glow was generously splashed across the sky like an oil painting.

Jiang Sui took out a candy from his pocket, peeled off the candy wrapper, and put it in his mouth.

At this time, Xiang Baiwei should have fallen asleep.

I wonder if she will dream about me in her dreams.

As Jiang Sui was thinking about it, he looked back at the old man who was sitting next to the tombstone and whispering to his beloved, and sighed with emotion.

Such unswerving love is truly touching.

When the sunset glow on the horizon faded away, Jiang Sui came to the old man and said, "It's time for us to go."

The old man touched the photo on the tombstone reluctantly and said, "Ah Xiang, wait for me a little longer. I will be able to accompany you soon."

Jiang Sui blinked away the moisture in his eyes and helped the old man leave.

After sending the old man back to the nursing home, Jiang Sui returned to the system interface, filled out the task completion form, and collected points.
