Quick Travel: When the host of Meimeijiao is bound to the birth system
Chapter 668 Invincible 28
About half an hour later, they arrived at the private restaurant.
Although today is a weekday, there are still quite a few cars parked in the parking space at the door, which shows how booming business is.
When ordering dishes, Xu Zhi knew that Shen Yao liked them as soon as he saw her expression, especially when she saw that some of her favorite dishes happened to be the signature dishes of this restaurant, the smile on her face deepened.
Feeling her relaxation and joy, Xu Zhi was in a good mood as well. If she was willing, they could drive over for dinner after training every day. In short, he wanted to make her happier and more relaxed as much as possible.
After ordering the dishes, Shen Yao propped up her chin, turned off her phone in a good mood, and casually threw it aside, blocking out any work messages that might suddenly appear at any time, so as not to affect her rare state of relaxation at the moment.
Xu Zhi also put his phone aside and poured a cup of tea for Shen Yao and placed it in front of her.
"By the way, will you have more part-time jobs in the future?" Xu Zhi suddenly asked, "For example, a part-time job like yesterday."
Shen Yao thought about it and felt that she should have almost passed Zhou Cheng's test. After all, she had been pretending by his side for so long and had done her best in everything. Even if she was acting, she was very skilled at it. In addition, Zhou Cheng always felt that she had started from a blank sheet of paper and had been brought up step by step by him to become the capable person she is now. Naturally, her loyalty was higher than that of some old foxes.
But he couldn't help being suspicious. After all, he was not a person who trusted others very much, so he naturally couldn't trust anyone completely. Even in Zhao Ming, who had a deep relationship and interests with him, he could only trust him 70%.
But no matter what, what happened yesterday should be Zhou Cheng's last test of her in the near future.
and so--
"There probably won't be many more part-time jobs like yesterday," she said. "In the next period of time, I want to focus on training with you."
Xu Zhi was holding the teacup in his hand. When he heard the words, he inexplicably felt his fingertips begin to feel slightly hot, as if the temperature of the tea was too high.
"Okay," he said.
"By the way, when did you start boxing?" Shen Yao knew that he was not the type who started practicing boxing since childhood, and he usually relied more on strength and explosive power. He did not use many techniques, and mostly won by relying on reaction and strength. Fortunately, he had good innate conditions, and he could leave others far behind with this style of fighting.
"It started a few years ago." Xu Zhi's eyes darkened slightly. "When I first started learning, I was not used to it, and I spent a lot of time to learn it quickly, but fortunately the result was good."
"You are very talented." Shen Yao said, "With hard work, you are really strong."
Just like a teacher's encouraging praise to his students.
Xu Zhi felt that she was trying to comfort him, so he looked up at her and smiled, "Teacher Shen is also very talented and strong."
Shen Yao nodded without any embarrassment and said, "I'm very strong."
Xu Zhi recalled how she was able to control her legs and swing them at him every time, and said, "I know."
Shen Yao said meaningfully: "So, if you can't beat someone in the future, feel free to call me and I'll fly over to fight with you."
They have to kill the bad guys together first, complete the task assigned to her by the organization, and then they can fall in love peacefully.
Xu Zhi: "You sound like you're leaving soon, Mr. Shen. Is this a parting promise?"
When saying this, Xu Zhi's tone sounded wrong.
But Shen Yao didn't notice it carefully. She counted the days on her fingers seriously, muttering to herself: "It seems like I have been here for a long time, one day, two days, three days..."
Zhou Cheng would probably urge her to go back in about a week, and she had to hurry back to Zhou Cheng to collect evidence.
While my thoughts were wandering, two round chocolate balls wrapped in gold were suddenly stuffed into my palms.
After stuffing them in, Xu Zhi's fingers did not leave immediately, but pressed against the two chocolate balls. It was not until Shen Yao raised her eyes to look at him that he slowly loosened his fingers and asked her: "Do you want to eat?"
Shen Yao thought he was trying to change the subject of leaving, so she cooperated and quickly tore open the packaging of the chocolate ball and ate one.
After a while, waiters started coming in to serve the food, and their conversation started flying again.
As they chatted, Shen Yao took the opportunity to ask Xu Zhi about the old man selling flowers, so Xu Zhi started by telling her how they first met.
"More than two years ago, I encountered some very bad things and was in a very bad state. During that time, I visited my brother at the cemetery more often."
"At first, I didn't notice the old man at the entrance of the cemetery. He wasn't the only one selling flowers there. Plus, I wasn't in the mood to observe the details, so I didn't observe him carefully."
"Until one time, I went to the cemetery near the early morning. It was quite late at that time, and the weather was cold, so many flower vendors had packed up their stalls and went home early. There were some crowded stalls during the day, but at that time, the old man was the only one selling flowers."
"I saw that he didn't have many flowers left, so I was about to ask him why he hadn't closed up and gone home at this late hour, but he spoke to me first: "Sorry, young man, we've sold out all the roses."
"I was still a little confused at the time, so I asked him how he knew I wanted to buy roses. He just smiled and said, "Don't you buy roses every time you come here?"
"Later, I chatted with him for a few more minutes and found out that he didn't actually go there every day to set up a stall and sell flowers. He had other work to do during the day, so he could only go there after he finished his work, which was sometimes early, sometimes late, and sometimes not at all."
"Later, I ran into him by chance when I came to this private restaurant for dinner, and I learned that the other work he was doing during the day was actually helping out in this private restaurant."
"Later, we got to know each other, and we talked more when we met. I only found out later that he had a child. He used to work in the money-making business, but one day he was suddenly covered in injuries and was sent to the hospital. He later became disabled and had to live in a wheelchair for the rest of his life."
"The person who caused this consequence, Xiao Jin, simply compensated the old man with some money and even threatened him that he'd better know his place, or else he'd end up in trouble."
"The old man has had a hard time these years, and I help him sometimes."
"The reason why I want you to get to know each other briefly is because the old man and his son know a lot about the money-selling business." Xu Zhi paused, "I know you might want to check the money-selling business, and maybe you can get some key information from the old man."
Shen Yao thought for a moment and nodded.
It would be good for her to have more help.
After a while, all the food was served.
Shen Yao looked at the table full of delicious food and felt her whole mood improve.
To be honest, comfort, leisure and relaxation are all rare in this small world. She has to be in a state of high concentration and attention most of the time, and it is rare for her to be as relaxed as she is now.
I enjoyed this meal very much.
They met the old flower seller after dinner. The time was neither too early nor too late. In short, the old man was almost done with his work and had time to meet them.
This was also because Xu Zhi was meticulous. He calculated the time of arrival and the time of eating well. Not only was it convenient for them, but it also did not make things difficult for the old man.
As soon as the old man saw Shen Yao, he remembered that she had bought all the remaining flowers he had. At that time, he felt that this girl looked a bit like Xu Zhi, and he thought they knew each other. He didn't expect that they really knew each other.
After chatting for a while, they got to know each other. This meant that even without Xu Zhi's company, Shen Yao could go to the cemetery alone to find the old man to find out some things. And the old man, because of his relationship with Xu Zhi, would tell Shen Yao everything he could and would not hide anything.
On the way back, Shen Yao was still marveling at Xu Zhi's thoughtfulness, which saved her a lot of trouble. He had even considered that she would leave later. After all, sparring was only for a period of time, and they had tacitly understood this from the beginning.
Although they could still be friends in the future, it was impossible for them to live together and train together every day like they did now. He knew that Shen Yao had a lot of things to do, and Shen Yao also knew that he was not idle.
So if it’s convenient, leave early if you can.
No matter what, Shen Yao thanked him sincerely: "Xu Zhi, thank you."
Xu Zhi didn't think it was a big deal and just said, "It's okay."
Shen Yao thought about his brother and asked, "About your brother..."
Xu Zhi thought for a moment and said, "I'll tell you in a few days."
Shen Yao nodded and said, "Okay."
At this moment, it was already late and the roads were no longer as crowded as they had been during rush hour. There was even a sense of quietness and comfort that was unique to the night.
The night wind was blowing gently, Shen Yao looked at the night view outside the car window, and suddenly she had a distracted feeling as if she wished time could stop.
"Do you like it? Like today." Xu Zhi suddenly asked her.
"Of course I like it." Shen Yao said with a smile.
"Then are we going out for dinner tomorrow?" Xu Zhi asked.
"No, Auntie said she'd make something delicious for me tomorrow."
Xu Zhi smiled and said, "Okay."
......
In the next few days, Shen Yao and Xu Zhi basically carried out consolidation and strengthening training.
In her opinion, Xu Zhi has completely mastered what she taught him. In addition, his original strength is not bad, so he should have no problem dealing with the gold-selling people in the future.
In that case, it's almost time for her to leave.
If you calculate carefully, she actually stayed there for quite a long time.
And there are still many tasks to be done, so she needs to speed up the progress.
However, before officially leaving, they still needed to have a detailed discussion about Xu Sheng.
On this day, when it was almost time for lunch, Shen Yao and Xu Zhi left the training ground together. When they went downstairs, Shen Yao asked, "Are you free to chat this afternoon?"
Xu Zhi seemed to have a premonition. He paused and said, "Okay."
......
Xu Zhi had actually roughly guessed that Shen Yao should have some simple understanding of him and Xu Sheng, and she would not come to him without checking anything.
Therefore, he was very frank in laying out the matter about Xu Sheng first, and also revealed his hostility and disgust towards Xiaojin without disguising it. In his opinion, Shen Yao should also have some disgust towards Xiaojin like him.
Shen Yao only discussed this topic with Xu Zhi after careful consideration, and most of the time, she chose to listen instead of talking about herself and Xiaojin.
There were some things she wanted to say but couldn't, so in the end, she could only say to Xu Zhi: "When you see me again in the future, please believe that my position will always remain the same as it is now, and I am on the same side as you."
Xu Zhi asked sharply, "What's wrong with you? Did something happen?"
Shen Yao pursed her lips and said with some difficulty: "Nothing happened, but Xu Zhi, I should leave soon."
Xu Zhi's face turned pale almost instantly. This was the first time Shen Yao saw him with such an expression since she knew him.
"Are you... leaving?" he asked with difficulty. Although he knew that this day was inevitable, when the moment really came, his mind was still in a daze and his heart sank inexplicably.
"Well, it should be just these few days." Shen Yao said.
In fact, Zhou Cheng is already urging her to do so. In addition, the security organization is also closely monitoring the progress of her mission.
"Where will you go after you leave?" Xu Zhi asked.
“I will continue with my previous work.”
Also, it will be busy.
Even if she didn't say it, Xu Zhi knew that she was busy.
"What kind of person is your boss? Is he good to you?" Zhou Cheng asked with an unclear expression.
He especially wanted to know who was the person who could make Shen Yao so loyal and always take the top priority.
He even had a strong desire to poach the person from the other party.
After a moment, before Shen Yao could answer his question, he asked again: "Part-time job, will you still take it? The part-time job here."
Shen Yao was startled. His idea...
"I guess... I can't answer it." It was mainly because I didn't have time to come. "Besides, haven't you practiced well? Logically, you shouldn't need me to practice with you, right?"
She left only after she made sure that there was no problem on his side, and that all the necessary improvements and unique skills needed to be learned had been mastered. After all, she was very responsible.
"Who said it's not needed?" Xu Zhi insisted.
Shen Yao:? ? ?
"I need it," he emphasized.
