It was clearly just three o'clock in the afternoon, and colorful lights were already flashing on the streets, which were slightly dimmed by the sunlight. Most of the shops along the way played soothing and sweet love songs, which made people's mouths curl up.
The lights and music mix together, making the whole city look like a huge dance floor.
The streets are full of pairs of men and women, their bodies almost completely touching each other. When they look at each other, the love in their eyes seems to overflow. People can tell that they are lovers at a glance, whether they are on a bench or in a park, or even
Even the dark street corners have a fitting figure.
Either embracing, or lingering, or holding hands no matter what, these lovers always stay in pairs wherever they go, as if they have merged into an indivisible individual, and the whole city is filled with a sweet atmosphere.
However, few people pay attention to the fact that sensitive cameras are installed in every corner of the city, rotating all the time, like a pair of cold and ruthless eyes, staring indifferently at this city immersed in love.
… People in this city don’t seem to need to work.
In other words, falling in love itself is their job - a job that has no holidays, starts from the beginning, day after day, year after year.
"How about it? Wuji City is beautiful, isn't it?"
A man and a woman suddenly appeared in the torrent of lovers. The woman was wearing a red dress, with long wavy golden hair shawl, and a slight smile appeared on her delicate face. She seemed quite satisfied with this scene.
The man next to her was pale, with no expression on his delicate face, and nodded perfunctorily: "Yes."
"You are too perfunctory."
Brown Tang rolled her eyes at Bai Mo with some dissatisfaction, and continued, "It's only the afternoon, the streets will only be more lively in the evening."
"marvelous."
"..."
Brown Tang looked stiff.
After a brief silence, she sighed: "Mr. Bai, how do you look like you are here for a visit?"
Bai Mo said lightly: "It doesn't look like you are showing me around."
"Who said that? I have already planned a detailed tour route, I guarantee you will not be disappointed!" Brown Tang defended with a serious look on his face.
"Yeah……"
Bai Mo glanced at her and said calmly, "But the only place I'm interested in in Wuji City is the famous library."
Brown Tang was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashed, and he said thoughtfully: "I said, "Why did Mr. Bai accept my invitation so easily? It turns out he had an ulterior motive... I thought you liked me."
She smiled sweetly, her eyes moved, and she pressed her right index finger on her red lower lip, looking at Bai Mo intently.
Bai Mo distanced himself from her without leaving a trace, but was grabbed by Brown Tang.
"We are in Wuji City now. Mr. Bai, please don't stay too far away from me, otherwise you will be attacked by the guards."
Bai Mo's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly looked around, and sure enough he found that all the cameras around him were pointed at him at the same time, with red lights flashing rapidly, like a cold warning.
He didn't want to cause trouble, so he got together with Brown Tang again, looked at the passing couple and said, "I wonder how Wuji City treats a third party who shamelessly intervenes?"
Of course, Brown Tang could hear the sarcasm in Bai Mo's words, but she just chuckled and replied: "In Wuji City, third party is a serious crime that can be sentenced to death, but..."
At this point, she changed her voice and said with a wink, "But that's only for certified couples. You and I are both single now..."
She thought about it seriously and said confidently, "That's why we call it free love."
"What a fresh definition." Bai Mo shook his head and said, "I have no intention of falling in love with you."
"Who can say for sure about love?
Brown Tang touched her smooth chin and chuckled, "And I'm not stupid. Although I like your previous answer in the couple verification, I know very well that you and that Miss Rouzhu are not a couple."
She flipped up her long golden hair, suddenly lowered her voice, and looked directly at Bai Mo, with a sly smile on her face.
"And my intuition tells me... you are an old bachelor."
Old bachelor...
Even with Bai Mo's mind, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch when he heard these three words.
——He was too lazy to pay attention to this inexplicable woman.
"It's so cold."
Brown Tang curled her lips, as if she was a little dissatisfied with his attitude, then she stopped her teasing expression and said seriously, "You need permission to enter the library. Even I can't bring outsiders in casually, but you are very lucky -
—There is indeed such an opportunity now.”
Bai Mo turned to look at her: "What chance?"
Although he is very interested in the library of Wuji City, his body needs to recover now. If the problem can be solved by normal means, he does not want to do it, not to mention that this is still someone else's territory.
Wuji City has a big problem, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it——
And behind this kind of problem, there is often a horror that cannot be touched lightly.
Bai Mo is most concerned about the situation of the faucet in the underground passage, and he doesn't want to cause trouble before solving this problem.
"Please hold my hand first and I will tell you." Brown Tang said with a smile.
Bai Mo didn't hesitate and took hold of her hand. His hand felt delicate, as if he had grasped a ball of fine mutton-fat jade.
Just kidding, although he is an old bachelor, Bai Mo doesn't have the mentality of being "sorry". There is no need to be shy about holding hands - he doesn't suffer any loss anyway.
Brown Tang didn't expect Bai Mo to be so "obedient". A blush suddenly appeared on her cheeks, and she hesitated: "Your hands are so cold. I... I even doubt whether what they said is true..."
"What?"
Brown Tang put her red lips close to Bai Mo's ear, exhaled, and then said teasingly: "Your face is so pale and your hands are so cold. Could it be that you are really like what they said...are you suffering from kidney deficiency?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the temperature around him seemed to drop a lot in an instant, and several couples passing by couldn't help but shiver.
"Giggle--"
Seeing Bai Mo's stiff expression, Brown Tang couldn't help but hold her stomach and laugh, laughing so hard that tears almost came out. She slapped Bai Mo's arm hard and said, "What, I thought you really didn't care about anything.
It turns out that he is still angry."
Her laughter was so loud that the lovers around her who only had eyes for each other couldn't help but turn their heads to look at her and start talking about her.
Bai Mo looked at her coldly.
"Okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore."
Under Bai Mo's cold gaze, Brown Tang finally suppressed his smile, his plump chest kept rising and falling, and he wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "Back to the topic, I will take you to a place, and as long as you perform well enough, I can help you get it."
Eligibility for admission to the library.”
"I hope you're serious."
Bai Mo's tone was cold. He hated this woman's playful attitude.
"certainly."
While adjusting the wrinkles on her red skirt, Brown Tang smiled brightly at him, "I take every relationship very seriously."
…
The technology in Wuji City is extremely advanced, and most jobs have been completely replaced by artificial intelligence. Couples in the city hardly have to do anything on weekdays, they only need to fall in love every day, and it is precisely this that causes the streets to be filled with a large number of people every day.
Pile of couples situation.
But I have to say that this may be the life that many people dream of, falling in love without any worries... It doesn't sound like there is anything wrong with it.
Under the leadership of Brown Tang, Bai Mo quickly left the busy street and came to a slightly remote alley.
At this time, there was a couple kissing in the alley, but perhaps because they were too absorbed in it, they didn't notice the two Bai Mo passing by.
Brown Tang looked back at them with a smile, suddenly rolled her eyes, and said to Bai Mo: "If you are willing to kiss me like this, then I will take the risk and let you enter the library directly, how about that?"
"I have mysophobia."
Bai Mo looked back at the couple and said calmly, "I can't bear the thought of sticking my tongue into your mouth."
Brown Tang's expression froze, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his tone became colder: "Follow me, I'll be there soon."
The two of them walked forward, passed several corners, and finally stopped in front of a dead end.
Brown Tang stretched out her hand and pressed it on the wall in front of her. The next second, something magical happened. The wall actually parted to both sides, like an open door, revealing a narrow passage.
"Remember not to stay too far away from me, otherwise you will be ejected."
Brown Tang gave a reminder and walked at the front.
Bai Mo didn't say much, but followed closely behind her.
As the two people entered the passage, the wall behind them closed again, and as the two people moved forward, the lights on the walls on both sides of the front lit up little by little, extending to the end of the passage.
——This street lamp is made of lighting stone.
Bai Mo stared slightly, followed Brown Tang forward, and stopped soon after.
"We're here." Brown Tang said.
However, the place where the two people stayed was just somewhere in the passage. There was no secret door around, nor anything that could be used as a reference.
Brown Tang pressed his palms on the floor, and the floor beneath their feet suddenly sunk downwards, and then formed a narrow lifting platform that slowly descended.
Brown Sugar jumped down, followed closely by Bai Mo.
However, because the space on the lift platform is too small, the two of them were very close to each other, and it looked like they were hugging each other from a distance.
However, Brown Tang did not blush this time, but acted quite calmly, and Bai Mo naturally said nothing more——
He was never embarrassed.
When the lift platform dropped to the bottom, a yellow light lit up in the darkness in front, reflecting a wooden door. Brown Tang tied up her long hair casually, her temperament quietly changed, and she pushed open the wooden door skillfully.
Almost as soon as the door was opened, along with a burst of restless music, the front suddenly became clear——
This is actually a luxurious underground bar.
The dazzling light emitted by the crystal chandelier is like a waterfall pouring on the restless dance floor. The restless music seems to arouse the desire in everyone's heart, making the light a little more intoxicating.
Pairs of young men and women were twisting their bodies in the dance floor, their shadows intertwined under the light, as if they were indistinguishable from each other.
Outside the dance floor, there is a gorgeous sea of flowers piled up, giving people a complete shock, the fragrance of flowers is overflowing, and it makes people feel relaxed and happy.
There are small square tables for two people in the sea of flowers. The men in suits and leather shoes and the ladies in formal dresses are sitting on both sides of the square tables. They look like successful people. They are shaking the goblet of red wine and looking at the dance floor calmly.
couple dancing.
The soothing piano music playing in the sea of flowers seemed quiet and peaceful, and the restless dance floor seemed to form two distinct worlds.
Brown Tang and Bai Mo walked straight towards the square table in the sea of flowers. Someone quickly recognized her, stood up and said respectfully: "Miss Brown Tang."
Some people did not stand up, but just raised their tall wine glasses to signal her, and then drank the red wine in one gulp with a smile on their face.
The only common move among everyone was that as soon as they saw Brown Tang, they all moved their eyes quietly to Bai Mo next to Brown Tang. Their eyes were different and they didn't know what they were thinking.
"There's room over there."
Brown Tang nodded to everyone, then looked at the only square table where no one was sitting, and said, "Let's go there and wait for a while."
"Yeah." Bai Mo nodded slightly.
However, just as the two were about to take their seats, a man suddenly stood up and stopped them, saying respectfully: "Sorry, Miss Brown Sugar, this seat has been reserved."
"oh?"
Brown Tang's expression was cold and his tone was condescending, which was completely different from the attitude Bai Mo had seen before, "The position in the sea of flowers does not belong to anyone, it is only reserved for those who are destined to be together. When will we make a reservation?"
The man's face froze, he hesitated for a moment, and then he said bravely: "Mr. Xiao Sheng and Miss Ziye came to the sea of flowers just now, and they chose this location. They only left temporarily and will come back soon."
"Yeah?"
Brown Tang stared at the man for a long time, and a playful smile gradually appeared on his face: "Then can you tell me...how long did you say 'just'?"
The man was silent, his body trembling slightly, and he seemed a little speechless.
Brown Tang did not embarrass him, but looked at the dignified woman beside him - the two were lovers.
"Then it's up to you to tell me, has anyone reserved this spot?"
His eyes were majestic and his tone was calm yet majestic, clearly showing the aura of a superior person.
The woman lowered her head and did not dare to speak.
"Miss Brown Sugar, this is between you and us, why do you need to embarrass them both?"
At this moment, a slightly lazy voice came from behind Brown Tang. Looking back, he saw a young couple in gorgeous clothes walking arm in arm.
"Since you are willing to be a guard dog, you must be prepared to be beaten."
Brown Tang didn't care at all about the changing complexions of the man and woman, and said calmly to the two people behind him, "What's more, they stretched out their faces for me to hit."
"The sea of flowers always follows the first-come, first-served rule. We came early, so this spot is naturally ours."
The woman named Ziye said with a sad face, "Mr. Mo Zi just said something fair for us. You don't need to insult them like this."
She already looks very weak, and her sad look now makes me even pity her.
Brown Tang frowned slightly: "I don't care if you came first, since you were not at your seat when I came, then this seat is mine."
"With Miss Brown Tang's authority, you can call Huahai's monitoring to see if we were only temporarily gone for a few minutes -"
Xiao Sheng, who had a slicked back hair, said, as if he suddenly thought of something, he said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Miss Brown Tang, I suddenly remembered that you seem to have lost the authority to supervise the sea of flowers..."
Although he said this, there was no apology on his face.
"There is no need to adjust the monitoring, this position is mine." Brown Tang looked as usual.
"Miss Brown Tang is too domineering. Even if we go to the city lord, this position should be ours today." Xiao Sheng's expression became colder.
It was clearly just an ordinary seat, but the two sides were so arguing that no one around them had any intention of trying to persuade them, as if they knew the profound meaning behind it.
"Oh……"
Brown Tang wanted to talk again, but suddenly found that Bai Mo behind him was missing.
When I looked down, I realized that this guy had already sat on his seat at some point, and was looking at the couples writhing on the dance floor with boredom, as if he didn't care about the argument at all.
Brown Tang's red lips were slightly open, shocked and helpless.
At the same time, Xiao Sheng, his wife and others also noticed the white ink on their seats, and the expressions on their faces became exciting.
The air was quiet except for the sound of piano music.
