Chapter 1: The Living Dead
1 a.m. at night.
South Korea, Seoul, on a remote street in Seocho-dong.
A street food stall surrounded by plastic sheeting saw off its penultimate group of customers tonight. The stall owner happily counted the harvest in the cash box tonight, and from time to time he looked at the man who was covered in alcohol and lay motionless on the table.
He was the last guest of the night. It is said that running alone to eat and drink at a street stall is rare in South Korea. Because in the minds of Koreans, going out to eat and drink at night is equivalent to you being a very bad person and not having a good relationship. And this guest came early, and he walked in almost at the same time as the stall opened, and from the beginning to the present, he hardly asked for any food, just poured himself soju bottle after bottle, until he was drunk and lying on the table unconscious.
Although drunk and unconscious, the boss is not afraid that this guy will pay his debts. Because the boss had peeked at his wallet in the process of delivering the wine, it seemed that there were colorful foreign coins in addition to the won.
I'm afraid this guy drank almost 20 bottles of soju today, right?! Although he didn't order any food, the money for alcohol alone was enough for the boss to earn a small sum.
"Hey, wake up, I'm going to close the stall," the boss gently pushed the drunk man, "Oh, don't sleep!" I'm going to sleep and go home and sleep."
Pushing and howling seemed to be completely ineffective. The drunken man gasped for breath and frowned, and he had no intention of waking up.
"I said, why are you like this, young man? Can you get drunk by drinking alone? The boss was helpless, took out his mobile phone from the drunk man's pocket, and was about to find someone in the mobile phone address book to pick up the drunk man.
"Ring, ring, ring" hasn't waited for the boss to dial. The phone rang on its own. The boss hesitantly answered the phone and put the earpiece to his ear.
"Where are you?" A majestic voice sounded in the earpiece.
"Yo reluctant, hello. Do you know the owner of this call? The boss said hurriedly.
"There was suddenly no sound on the other end of the phone, and it took a while." Who are you? Why does his phone have you hand? β
The voice was cold and seemed to have no feelings, which made the boss very uncomfortable.
"The owner of the phone is drunk at my food stall, and I am now in the middle of Nampo Street in Seocho-dong, please hurry up!"
After hanging up the phone, the boss put the phone back in the drunken man's pocket, and then tremblingly took out a few won from his wallet, counted them, and then took out a few change from the cash box and put them back.
Ten minutes later, two all-black Land Rovers roared in. After deciding on the location. There were 3 men in black who got out of the car, one of whom looked quite old, but the temperament and serious expression of the superior on his body made the boss a little apprehensive.
"Take him away" The old man in black waved his hand and pointed in the direction of the drunk man, and the other 2 men in black stepped forward and carried the drunk man into the car.
"You're the boss?"
"Inside"
"This wine money" The old man in black looked at the table full of wine bottles.
"No, it's already been given"
The old man in black looked at the boss, the corners of his mouth moved, and finally he didn't speak.
The two Land Rovers just drove away, from arrival, pick-up, and departure. It only took 1 minute, and it was as fast as if nothing had happened.
On the Land Rover, the man in black who was driving turned his head to look at the old man in black.
"Chairman, where are we going now?"
The old man in black had a gloomy face. Slightly groaned.
"Idol Security Office!"
The next day, early in the morning.
A gentle ray of sunlight sprinkled on Xu Zixuan's face. The originally pale, decadent, and lifeless face suddenly twisted into a ball.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Zixuan, who was sleeping quietly and soundly, suddenly got out of bed. Stumbling towards the bathroom.
"Vomit vomit" There was a sound of vomiting in the bathroom. After a while, with the sound of toilet flushing and faucets. Xu Zixuan walked out of the bathroom with a towel.
There was a man sitting in the living room, a man. Old man.
Xu Zixuan didn't seem surprised by the appearance of the old man, and completely ignored it. He walked straight to the refrigerator, took out a can of beer, unscrewed it and poured it into his mouth.
The old man looked at Xu Zixuan coldly and didn't speak, but if his eyes could kill people, Xu Zixuan would have been cut by a thousand knives a long time ago.
After drinking a can of beer happily and burping comfortably, Xu Zixuan walked up to the old man and sat down.
"It's not good that you've broken the agreement between us!" Xu Zixuan said lightly.
"Agreed?" The old man was angry and laughed, "Do you remember our agreement?" Haven't you corroded your brain with all that yellow soup horse urine every day? Do you look at yourself now, or the same Grim Reaper you used to be? Do you think you're still qualified to ask me to complete the engagement? β
Xu Zixuan didn't answer, just sat quietly and looked at the old man lightly.
"Talk!" The old man stood up angrily, and at the same time lifted Xu Zixuan, who was slumped on the sofa, up, "Look at your current appearance, what's the difference between you and those rotten boys who take drugs on the street?" Hehe, I see you're not far from the dead now! β
"Does it have anything to do with you whether I die or not?" Xu Zixuan gently brushed aside the old hands holding his neckline, "Since you ruthlessly abandoned me at the beginning, what kind of good person is you pretending to be now?" Do you think that if you have nothing to complain about in front of me and exert your authority, my opinion of you will change? I'm so old, and I'm still so naΓ―ve."
"Ah, Xu Zixuan, who are you talking to? I'm your Abba" The old man suddenly became emotional, panting, and his eyes seemed to be about to pop out.
"Abba?" Xu Zixuan sneered, "Oh, I see." You mean that you didn't think you were my Abba when you abandoned me and my mom. Now that I'm older, I see that the children who were abandoned at the beginning have grown up and have a future. So I changed my mind and started to be Abba again! β
"You" The old man's face turned pale, and his right hand grabbed the heart stubbornly. Gasping for air in his mouth.
At this moment, two men rushed in from outside the door, and one man quickly laid the old man flat on the sofa. And put the couch cushion behind his neck. Another man took out the medicine from his handbag and handed him a glass of water for the old man to swallow.
And Xu Zixuan stood aside, looking at all this coldly.
The old man left, he didn't say a word, his back was very gloomy, and Xu Zixuan didn't say anything to stay. Being able to say a few words face-to-face is already very face-saving in Xu Zixuan's opinion, after all, people are maintained by feelings, and Xu Zixuan is very reluctant to have emotionless family affection.
At this time, the sun has risen high and the whole of Seoul is bathed in sunlight.
Xu Zixuan picked up a can of beer again. Walk to the veranda.
It's been almost two years, and it's been almost two years since Shen Shifei left Yanjing.
The idol security office and its surroundings seem to be even more decayed.
This area, which was ready to be demolished three years ago, has been postponed indefinitely for some reason. The office has not changed, and the interior decoration and furniture are all well preserved.
It looks no different from before, but time has passed, and things have not been around for a long time.
Ahn Tsai Hyuk is gone, to be precise, he must have disappeared suddenly, and he never appeared again after going downstairs to buy dinner one evening. The president is gone, and Jin Xi'er has no reason to stay here, after all, Xu Zixuan has no obligation to pay her salary. And she has graduated from Seoul National University School of Law and joined the largest law firm in South Korea, and there is no reason for her to continue to stay in this shabby law firm, both from her job and her identity.
It's not that Xu Zixuan doesn't want to leave. But every time he packed his bags, he couldn't think of where he would go next! The world is so big, why can't he find a place to stay?!
Thereupon. He stayed, for two years.
Two years is not a short time. A lot can happen.
For example, grandma died. The change in her family gave her a huge blow, coupled with long-term depression. In the end, grandma did not fight the illness and died. Grandpa Guo finally retired from his leadership position, but his old body and the pain of losing his wife made this skinny old man who had experienced strong winds and waves and became a long-term customer of the Celestial Empire's high-level cadre ward. Uncle is still in the National Wu Academy, but due to Grandpa Guo's retreat from the background, he has been adjusted from the original key position to an idle position, and has completely lost the opportunity to rise again, and lives a life of sitting in the office and drinking tea every day. The aunt was released, there was such a big thing, the public office must be gone, and the case was backed, although it was internal, but in the officialdom of the Celestial Empire, some internal things were more effective than the public ones. So the aunt returned to the magic capital with great interest and took over the family business of her mother's family. The only good news is that Xiao Guozi has come out of the way, entered the wolf tooth through his own efforts, and became the backbone of the wolf tooth team.
As for other people, although Xu Zixuan doesn't want to think about it or know it, the sky always doesn't follow people's wishes, and the more you don't want to know something, it always drills into your ears.
On January 1, 2014, Lee Seung-gi and Lim Yoon-a were exposed to dating, and less than one hour after the news came out, the two sides admitted that they were "in the stage of mutual understanding".
On March 13, Jessica and American Korean overseas Kwon Ningyi were also revealed to be in love, and then Jessica denied the relationship between the two, saying that they were just friends.
On April 4, Tiffany's romance with Nichkhun, Hyoyeon and writer Kim Joon-hyung once again managed to attract the public's attention.
On September 30, Jessica issued a statement that she would withdraw from Girls' Generation and prepare to stay in HK and the United States for a long time to focus on the construction of her fashion brand. At the same time, the scandal between Jessica and Kwon Yong-il is getting more and more intense, and both parties have adopted an attitude of not admitting or denying it to deal with the media.
On March 23, 2015, the Korean paparazzi exposed photos of Lee Min Ho and Bae Xiuzhi having a tryst on the streets of Seoul, South Korea, and then Lee Min Ho's agency team announced the relationship between Lee Min Ho and Bae Xiuzhi
It seems that a lot of things have happened (such as finding his biological father), but Xu Zixuan is too lazy to remember, or doesn't want to remember it at all.
On New Year's Eve last year, the flower market was lit up like day;
The willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk.
On New Year's Eve this year, the moon and lights are still the same;
I didn't see last year's people, and my tears wet the sleeves of my spring shirt
Jessica, Bae so-chi
Actually, the feeling of being drunk is really good! (To be continued......)
