The young man in his arms was pale, and there was cold sweat on his forehead.
His lips were tightly closed, the bloodless lip line was stretched into a fragile arc, the long eyelashes drooped, casting a dark and deep shadow under the light, the vision under the half-opened eyelids was not focused, and the back of his spine burst. The position trembled slightly, like a dead leaf shivering in the cold wind.
The faint trembling spread like ripples.
Zuo Yan frowned, holding the other's thin shoulders with both hands.
His eyes drooped, and his eyes wandered over the young man's face.
This is the second time that Zuo Yan has encountered this little star on his own territory inexplicably, and he never believed that there would be such a coincidence in this world that he could be bumped into his arms by the same person twice within a week. Second-rate.
So, is this a desperate surrender? Or deliberately approached with ulterior motives
According to his usual habit, it is estimated that he would have pushed the other party away long ago, turned around and left, as if brushing the dust off his sleeves, without paying attention at all.
But, in fact, the moment he entered the bathroom, Zuo Yan saw the trembling young man leaning on the sink.
The young man didn't seem to see him at the time, he just lowered his head silently, the expression on his face was covered by his forehead hair, he could only see his straight back trembling slightly, and the knuckles of his fingers on the stage were white. , as if to endure something.
Zuo Yan stopped in his tracks like a ghost or a ghost.
He didn't turn around and leave.
The next second, the other party seemed to be unable to support it, his knees softened, and he fell to the side uncontrollably.
At that moment, the flow of time seemed to have lost its meaning.
Zuo Yan felt his heart shrink slightly, as if an invisible hand grabbed a hand on his heart, and his heart rhythm suddenly became out of tune.
His body had already acted one step ahead of consciousness.
When Zuo Yan reacted, he had already supported the young man who was about to fall to the ground in his arms.
Just like last time.
He didn't know what had taken hold of his mind, disturbed his thoughts, but instinctively felt distracted.
The notch between Zuo Yan's eyebrows deepened.
He still remembered the other party's name - "Lu Nan?"
The other party didn't answer, as if his consciousness was pulled away, his dark eyes didn't focus, just shivered silently.
This reaction, on drugs
Zuo Yan squinted his eyes without a trace, he let the other party lean on his shoulder, freed up one hand and took out his mobile phone.
"Pull the car to the door."
He commanded succinctly.
Zuo Yan paused, and then added: "Call Dr. Zhao."
He hung up the phone with one hand and glanced down at the other person's face again. The young man lowered his head, his soft hair was hanging down, the wet black hair was stuck to his cheeks with sweat, and his pale face was bloodless, as if a certain A fragile and fragile art that melts in too harsh sunlight at the touch of a touch.
Zuo Yan raised his hand and pushed the opponent's forehead behind his ear.
His fingertips stayed on the cold and wet side face of the young man for a moment, then slowly slid along the curve of his lower jaw, and only retracted when he was about to touch his lips.
The man's expression was deep and indistinguishable, and a little unpredictable light flashed in the depths of his dark eyes.
- Even if it is with ulterior motives.
Since you bumped into it again, don't even think about running.

Dr. Zhao has served as Zuo's family doctor for twenty years, and this is not the first time he has been rushed to Zuo's house.
Carrying the medical bag, he skillfully walked into the house.
His employer, Zuo Yan, was already waiting for him.
Dr. Zhao asked, "Are you feeling any discomfort?"
Zuo Yan shook his head: "It's not me."
He pushed open the door of the room behind him, turned around and walked in first, followed by Doctor Zhao.
Dr. Zhao's eyes fell on the bed.
A young man who seemed to be in a coma was lying there. He was silent and motionless, only the slight heaving of his chest could prove that he was alive.
Having been a family doctor for the powerful for a long time, Dr. Zhao knows what to ask and what not to ask.
Knowing when to shut up is the most precious virtue.
He walked quickly to the bedside, opened the medical bag and put it aside, and began to examine the patient.
The moment Dr. Zhao's stethoscope touched the other's chest, he could feel the other's involuntary trembling in a coma, as if he could still feel pain even at this time.
He paused, then continued in a more gentle way.
Ten minutes later, Dr. Zhao put the inspection equipment back in the medical box, his brows furrowed tightly, as if he was puzzled by something.
Zuo Yan asked, "What happened to him?"
Dr. Zhao hesitated for a while, then shook his head slowly: "This... His physical functions are very healthy. Through this simple examination, I don't know why he showed such a reaction."
Zuo Yan frowned.
He walked slowly to the foot of the bed, his knuckled fingers pressed against the guard at the end of the bed, and his eyes fell on the young man who was still in a coma:
"Is it possible he was on any medication?"
Dr. Zhao shook his head: "His pupils are not abnormal, there is no trace of the drugs he has taken, and there is no sign of an increase in blood pressure and heartbeat. It should not be any stimulant on the market, but his limbs are very Apparently has a stress response to touch…”
He frowned in confusion: "If you're really worried... can you do a blood test?"
Zuo Yan nodded, his expression unchanged:
"Make one."
Since he has decided to let people follow him, his innocence must be guaranteed.

When Ge Xiu woke up, he didn't know where he was for a while.
The electric shock had already stopped, and there was a dead silence in his ears, but his body still seemed to remember the terrifying pain, as if the electric current had melted into his blood, and it was still sizzling even now.
Ge Xiu adjusted his breathing, blinked, and his vision slowly became clear again.
Overall, the shock this time was not a bad thing.
Before punishing the world, the presiding judge had told Ge Xiu that the flow of time inside the world and outside the world was different, and this was obviously not just for efficiency.
The core of the whole event is Pandora, and the core of Pandora is spiritual power.
Then in order to ensure the implementation of their plan, it is natural to ensure that the main body, that is, their own spirit, is in a high-speed operation state, so as to achieve sufficient strength, and compressing time is the easiest way to do it.
This will inevitably lead to the inability of the outside world to observe the virtual world in real time.
But this time is different.
This time the mission is very clearly pointed in the only direction - they are not only observing, but even externally conducting real-time control.
To this end, they forced him to follow the plan, even at the expense of efficiency.
- They are in a hurry.
Although it is just a simple act of blocking and imposing punishment, it can reveal too much information.
And the most important of them are:
time limit.
The other party is in a hurry, and due to the deviation of the plan and the original trajectory, they are becoming more and more impatient, and there will be more and more attempts to interfere with the virtual world that has been formed.
The blurry photo taken from a distance flashed through Ge Xiu's mind.
In the light blue nutrient solution, the man floated silently, his long black hair fluttering away, like a flag hunting in the gust of wind.
The end of all these puzzles lies with him.
Ge Xiu propped himself up from the bed and sat up, his whole body joints were aching, the previous pain was hidden in the gap between muscles and bones, and with his movement, tentacles of tentative tentacles protruded out.
His fingers on his knees were still shaking slightly.
Ge Xiu frowned irritably, and flattened his trembling fingers with his other hand, preventing him from continuing to shiver physiologically.
He seemed to remember something, reached out and took out his phone from his pocket.
There has already been an uproar on the Internet. Obviously, Wang Xuejiu has done more than one pickling thing. His previous actions were more like throwing a boulder into the dark stagnant water, causing the rotting and stinking mud at the bottom of the pool to be rolled up in waves. Since then, the bones and carrion buried under it have been exposed to the public eye, more dark transactions and industrial chains have been turned up, public opinion has turned back in an instant, the local police station has announced a case, and countless media have spoken out—and Star Entertainment The massive changes in the company's stock market and the change of ownership of the largest shareholder were left unnoticed.
And the name Lu Nan has become a yellow flower of tomorrow, a bone that has been chewed and sucked many times by the public.
Ge Xiu checked his mailbox on the dark web.
A new email appeared in it, a message from his buyer this time, wanting to promote more cooperation.
He thought about it and typed two words on it:
"Can."
After all, whether investing in films or interfering with the daily operation of entertainment companies requires a lot of money, maintaining a long-term cooperative relationship is of course a good choice - especially if the other party is generous and closes the deal at nearly ten times the reserve price.
Zuo Yan received a reply from the vice president on his mobile phone:
XIU agreed.
He glanced at the message on the screen and replied, "Try to see if we can win more."
After replying, Zuo Yan turned off the screen of his phone, raised his hand and pushed open the closed door in front of him.
Sensing the movement at the door, the young man sitting on the bed put down his mobile phone and looked in his direction.
His condition was much better than before, but his complexion was still pale as if it was about to dissipate, almost melting into the sunlight coming in from the window.
For the first time, Zuo Yan saw the other party's appearance when he was awake.
Not anger and aggression the first time, or vulnerability and trembling the second time.
The young man looked over quietly, his dark eyes were bottomless, and there was a strange alienation.
Zuo Yan's heart moved.
He has seen Lu Nan's appearance - in the photos taken by the media, the young people with bright skins are panicking and dodging, their expressions are lost, their eyes are dodging, and their posture is shrinking.
And obviously... totally different.
"woke up?"
He stepped into the room, and asked lightly without any excess emotion in his low voice.
Ge Xiu narrowed his eyes.
The man in front of him is tall and has long legs, a noble temperament, and cold eyes.
Perhaps it was because of the connection between the two of them in the previous world. Although it was only a glance, Ge Xiu immediately recognized who the other party was, as if the natural ripples in the soul, instinctively and clearly knew the same kind of people. exist.
He is Lou Lai, Eileen, Lovett, Hines.
Or... Pandora
