Neither Scarlett nor Viviana spoke a word. They just stood silently in front of the headstone.
Scarlett's grandfather had quit drinking many years ago. When he was young, he liked to drink, but he never drank much. After he got married, Scarlett's grandmother was concerned that alcohol would damage her husband's health, so he rarely drank. Afterward, Scarlett's grandmother was diagnosed with cancer, and he hadn't had a drink since then until today.
The bottle of wine Yair brought here was from the Tank family's collection cabinet. It was the old man's favorite wine. After more than twenty years, the old man tasted the wine again, and for the first time, he found it rough.
He didn't like it anymore.
The old man only took a sip and then he handed the wine back to his assistant.
Scarlett looked up at her grandfather," Grandpa, shall we go back?" At Scarlett's words, the old man gave her a sideways glance and nodded his head.
They then turned around and headed out of the cemetery. Two bouquets were left at the headstone, which was proof that someone had visited it.

When they returned from the cemetery to the city, it was still early, not yet time for dinner.
Scarlett then took her grandfather and Viviana to a famous spot in Chatbury, Nigina Mountain, to watch the sunset.
Nigina Mountain was nationally known for its sunsets. In all seasons, the sunsets here were spectacular views.
Scarlett’s grandfather was depressed when they came out of the cemetery. Scarlett was alright.
Her parents had been dead for a decade. She had long accepted this cruel fact.
When their car arrived at the foot of the mountain, it was 5 p.m. The sun was still high in the sky. It was still very bright. The sunlight was strong.
Scarlett got out of the car and put up an umbrella. She then helped her grandfather walk to the cable car ticket office to get their tickets.
It was the weekend. Many people come to Nigina Mountain for camping. It would be just a three-hour walk from the base of the mountain to the top. It was not a long way. But the evening had arrived, and Scarlett’s grandfather's legs were not swift. It was the most convenient for them to go up by cable car.
When they got to the top, it was still early. There were many young people camping on the summit. It was summer vacation. Students liked to come over here to camp. They watched the sunset in the evening, played games together, and watched the stars in the evening. The next morning, they would wake up in the sun. They got up and grabbed some sandwiches and snacks. After filling their stomachs, they went down the hill and went home. It was enjoyable leisure.
When Scarlett was in high school, she also came here camping with Alexis and the others. When night fell, the stars were beautiful. Many people had come. The camping area was especially lively at night.
A guide was introducing the Nigina Mountain not afar. Scarlett found an empty spot for her grandfather and Viviana to sit and rest. They sat on the ground, enjoying the cool mountain breeze and listening to the guide's commentary.
"Nigina Mountain is beautiful." The old man had been in a low spirit since they came out of the cemetery. Finally, he spoke up.
Scarlett curled the corners of her lips into a smile. She told the old man about her childhood, "When | was five years old, my parents took me to climb this mountain. At that time there was no cable car. | got halfway up and felt tired. My dad carried me up on his back." That was the first time Scarlett watched a sunrise. At the age of five, she didn’t really have any idea of what a sunrise was.
Standing on the top of that mountain, she looked up into the sky and saw golden light shining from the horizon and clouds swirling in those lights. The view was amazing.

For years afterward, twilight represented the most beautiful thing in Scarlett's heart.
Yair thoughtfully bought some bottles of water from a nearby snack stall. It was already 5:30. In half an hour, the sun would be going down.
The old man liked to hear about Scarlett's childhood, so Scarlett told him some interesting stories that happened in her childhood. Soon, half an hour had passed.
It was quarter past six. The sky was not as bright as it had been when they arrived. The clouds in the distance began to turn golden.
Up ahead, many amateur photographers had set up their tripods and were tuning their cameras.
There were more people at the top now than when they first arrived. People were sitting on the ground. When Scarlett looked up at the sky, she could only see the crowd.
Scarlett helped her grandfather to get up. They walked forward a little. "Yair, please hold Grandpa's arm." With so many people around, Scarlett thought it would be safer for her grandpa to have Yair hold his arm.
