The most prosperous business district in A City.
As usual, millions of citizens and tourists from other provinces had set foot on this place, which was filled with land and money. Rows of shops, international banks, luxurious palaces and various kinds of clubs were crowded with tourists, forming a symbol of money.
This place, the most prosperous area in China’s most prosperous city, was like a greedy but elegant vampire, sucking the money in the pockets of every pedestrian who used profligacy to satisfy their desires. However, the colorful LED billboards with ribbons all over the streets were just like a Vampire’s tie, seemingly bound, but with a deep sense of temptation. Watches, perfumes, red wine, exquisite merchandise and beautiful models, everything on the cold billboard could easily make people feel hot and jealous and become a shopaholic.
At 11:57 noon, all the LED billboards on White Pavilion Avenue, which had the largest traffic volume, were out of light at this moment.
People who were engaged in shopping could not miss the vision above their heads.
They raised their heads in dismay, whispered and loudly questioned.
“What’s the matter? Is it a power failure?”
“There is something wrong, someone must be crying, so many dozens of billboards in such a good location, stopped broadcasting for a few minutes, what a loss …”
“It’s amazing that I’ve seen a black screen of White Pavilion’s billboard for the first time since he became the mayor of A. This is the first time that aliens have invaded the earth!”
Minutes, a very short period of time, enough people discovered the abnormal situation, randomly evaluated the scene, while glancing at the dark giant billboard from time to time, holding the vague expectation of what would happen next.
On the tower of the central square, on the huge clock, the hour, minute and second hands slowly merge into one, twelve o’clock sharp. The heavy bell rang, and a group of white pigeons rustled through the sky. All the expensive electronic screens on the Avenue were awakened as a group and once again lit up.
The same picture and the same person’s face appeared on all the advertisement screens all over the avenue.
The originally noisy streets suddenly quieted down, people still in intense discussion found something was wrong, looking at the people around them and saw their heads up, so they also raised their heads, and promptly lost their voices.
The quiet White Pavilion Avenue, suddenly became noisy, as if the feast was in progress, a carnival was imminent.
“Ahhhhh-Liubai, it’s our family’s Liubai!”
“God, look! King Zhang Liubai! How can he be so handsome! It’s crazy to be that handsome!”
“Hey, hello, Zhang Liubai has a new advertisement. Is it good to cry? In White Pavilion, the street is full of him! Don’t be there. Come here!”
“Huh, this child looks good, how about it, girl, buy a dozen to keep?”
“Someone has drawn a small white face for this Lord, and this Lord will be his friend.”
Like an oracle falling from the sky, everyone looked up at the face projected on high, even if it was only a shadow.
The outline of the man on the giant advertisement screen was deep, with a stereoscopic impression far exceeding that of the norm. His facial features were even more delicate and made people sigh. The noble and unruly look in his eyes made him look like an elegant gentleman, but he was like a cynical youth, full of ambivalence.
The man held his chin slightly up and his eyes were slightly lowered. His long eyelashes could cast a light shadow on his eyelids. He looked at the camera coldly, the color of his eyes were amber.
This was a handsome man who was almost unreal. His hand on the bow tie was slender and good-looking. A forefinger with clear joints was hooked on the bow tie. It looked like he was tidying up his clothes. He gave out a strong sense of abstinence in cooperation with his slightly bent lips. The two shirt buttons unbuttoned under the tie seemed to indicate that he was going to pull off the tie.
With doubt, they couldn’t help looking at his gestures more carefully. Only then did they notice that the man was wearing a tail ring on his little finger. The design was simple and meaningful, but it was unique because of some insignificant details.
Rings bound his fingers, his tie and clothes bound his body, but the bound person was relaxed, defiant and secretive, like the San Diego Cathedral, which was a lonely and self-admiring cathedral, noble, luxurious, mysterious and eccentric.
The lower left corner of the picture was the only advertisement, which was quite interesting.
“Bound is also free.
Stephanie Platinum Tail Ring “
Below was a man’s written signature-
Zhang Liubai.
*******
When the people on the White Pavilion Avenue were shocked by the showbiz emperor on the advertisement screen, a Rolls Royce Phantom Extended Edition was stuck in the street by the stagnant crowd.
The man sitting in the passenger compartment of this expensive car did not have a matching aristocratic temperament. He glanced sideways at the billboard not far away, then at the crowd that crowded the streets under the billboard and pointed his middle finger at the crowd.
“No, just a little fucking star. Now people are kicked in the head by donkeys. All day long, they live for those little white faces who have hidden rules.”
Chen Tan swore with disdain, waiting for someone to cater to him, but there was silence in the large car.
The well-dressed driver looked straight ahead and just drove slowly out of the crowded area. The people in the back seat …
After squeezing out a smile, Chen Tan dared to slowly turn his neck and said in an extremely flattering voice: “And those fools obviously didn’t see our eldest brother, much better looking than that slick boy!”
The person in the back seat was reading the Wall Street Journal. Holding the English newspaper were slender white fingers. The hands clearly belonged to a pianist. His index finger was wearing a luxurious and retro red gem ring, showing his honorable status. Pale beautiful fingers gently turned a page and he looked up at Chen.
The man whose body and temperament in the car was like an unruly male lion instantly seemed to be grabbed by his throat, he lost his voice immediately and turned back despondently. Even though he had been with him for nearly 20 years, he was the right hand of the man, and he had been friends with him since childhood, but like all other people, being looked at by the man would extinguish all arrogance.
It was a pair of beautiful eyes, almost bewitching, thick and dense eyelashes, the surface of his pupil looked like it had flecks of floating light, luxuriant texture like black crystal stained with frost and snow. However, the man’s skin color was too pale, his skin was completely without any color, as if all year round, he was held underground without the sun, or like he lived in an expensive coffin of an ancient blood clan. Under the almost tragic white background, the man’s dark eyes look extremely deep and charming. However, it seemed that if one looked at it even half an hour more carelessly, one will fall into the abyss uncontrollably, dark, suffocating and beyond redemption.
If one didn’t want to fall into the abyss, you needed to bend your noble knee to it even if it was trampled under your feet.
Hell, Chen Tan followed this white sick man-Su Xitang-raging through the sky and the earth, and built an unprecedented force in blood. He had extraordinary beauty, smart, but he couldn’t find a second person like Su Xitang, who was as beautiful as poison. Those who had seen him were either willing to be captured, or died to the point that there was no bone left.
While Chen Tan was feeling embarrassed, music suddenly sounded in the car.
Wearing a red gem ring on his pale finger, he took the phone respectfully handed over by the people around him and listened to the news from the trembling voice.
“Sir, young master Su An is awake.”
Su Xitang was silent for a moment and hung up the phone.
Because they didn’t know what news the phone call brought, everyone in the car held their breath and looked at the tall and pale man, afraid to make any noise.
Su Xitang seemed tired. He leaned back and opened his mouth.
“Su An woke up. The meeting is postponed. Go back.”
Concise and comprehensive, there was no change, the voice was cold as if floating in the sea for tens of millions of years on sharp glaciers.
*******
Su An suddenly opened his eyes.
As if recovering from a deep sleep, waking from a dream, as if coming back from the dead.
When the harsh light was immersed in the horizon, a pleasantly surprised old voice was heard near his ear, which was extremely strange.
“Young master, you are awake. Master will come back to see you right away!”
Su An’s heart suddenly twitched with pain, and he subconsciously hissed.
At this moment of pain, it proved that he really, really survived.
Back from the dead.
