Venice, the city on the sea, had been the embodiment of Italy's splendor and splendor since ancient times. In the ninth century, its powerful naval fleet had spread throughout the entire Mediterranean region. In the 13th century, he led the Fourth Crusade. By the 15th century, Venice had already become the ruler of the Andrea Sea.
However, the excessive prosperity brought about debauchery and degeneration. People began to relax their minds when they had no lack of material life, so seeking pleasure became another purpose of life for the people of Venice.
In order to meet the needs of the people, so that people could indulge in pleasure and enjoy life happily, they broke the traditional social norms and created the heyday of CASINI.
Even after the heyday of the Republic, Venice began to decline until the silent 21st century. CASINI still existed, and there were countless ways to find pleasure. Slowly, Casino became a secret place for the upper class.
Today, Venice's most famous, largest, and most well-connected casino was Eden, a mansion by the Grand Canal.
The night shrouded Eiden, making this mansion that gathered the prosperity of the world even more extravagant and decadent. Here, people could release their greed and debauchery.
They rode the gondola from the Grand Canal to the mansion. From the front, the gate of the mansion was interwoven with two-colored marble ribbons. There were gold ornaments and mythical beasts on it. The Byzantine style could be clearly seen from the steeple and elegant floral windows of the Pride House. Walking inside, the dim room was filled with a decadent atmosphere, forming a strong contrast with the bright carvings on the ceiling.
After passing through the heavily guarded front hall and corridor, they arrived at the courtyard behind them. Behind the courtyard were independent pavilions. There were about a hundred rooms for people to rest for the night, and there were several banquet halls. Different surprises began on different occasions.
Only members could enter Eden. As long as they wore a mask, they could come and go freely in several halls. Every member was free to choose tonight's show, whether it was a gorgeous casino or a hall of indulgence built with money. Men and women who came here, whether they needed a man or a woman as a companion, could be completely indulgent. They did not have to worry about strange looks, secular dogma, or religious doctrines. As long as they left here, no one would know that such a person had visited this place.
In Eden, there was absolute privacy, but it was not completely closed.
At this time, Venice, which had been depressed after Christmas, had a large number of foodies pouring into Eden.
In the magnificent hall, the service staff were all carefully selected handsome men and beautiful women. They walked elegantly and lazily back and forth between the hall and the exquisite private rooms on the second and third floors.
"Leo, where were you just now? The baroness has been waiting for you for an hour.”
"It's all to get rid of that damned Sicilian bastard!”The person who was still hiding behind the curtains made of gold and silver couldn't help but complain in a deep voice. The dim yellow light made it impossible to see his face clearly. They could only quietly listen to his deep and magnetic voice.
"You mean Fodoru?" Dona, who was playing with a crystal glass in his hand, smiled maliciously. "Why don't you just go along with his wishes? In this way, you can obtain unexpected power.”
"I'm sorry, I can't serve men.”Leo spat. There was a hint of contempt and arrogance hidden in his charming smile. "Besides, with my current reputation, I don't need to rely on him. Any noble lady can give me more power.”
Leo walked out from behind the curtain, gently brushing his long blond hair. His blue and green eyes looked intimidating under the dim yellow light, and his beautiful facial features were mesmerizing because of his slightly raised smile.
"Yes, you are Eiden's most highly regarded PR, but you are also the hardest to get close to.”Dona raised his eyebrows and stared at his hateful smile, but he had no choice but to yield to him.
Leo was voted to be the top public relations officer in Eden not only because of his handsome face, but also because he exuded a magic that made people unable to control themselves and couldn't wait to take him for themselves. His handsomeness would make the priest abandon God and become his slave, and would even make the English noble lady willing to become his love slave on his bed.
He had a magic power that made people willing to go crazy for him. Unfortunately, his unruly personality always made him offend many people unknowingly. If he was not a member of Eden and the behind-the-scenes boss of Eden was powerful, he would have been cut into pieces.
However, the strangest thing was that no matter how much he hated this person, no one could hurt him, right? It wasn't that he couldn't, but that he couldn't bear to part with him, because he was an anomaly and also a legend of Eden.
"Thank you for your compliment."
He knew very well that his appearance was like poison, and very few people could escape his meticulous hunting. As long as it was what he wanted, someone would naturally send it to him. He didn't need to be happy, and a group of stupid women would automatically kneel at his feet and beg for his love. This was a weapon bestowed upon him by the heavens.
"You're welcome, Voghera.”Dona sighed and said,"" Hurry up. Otherwise, if the baroness gets angry…"
"Do you think she'll get mad at me?”Leo gracefully took two steps forward and looked back at him. The smile on his lips was even more seductive.
Dona shrugged, speechless. Who could resist him? Until now, he still did not know who could resist him. He was the emperor of Eden, and all the upper-class women who came for pleasure became his love slaves. Even Fodoru, who belonged to the mafia in Sicily, knelt at his feet.
Alas, who could resist the arrogant and domineering emperor in Eiden?
If there was such a person, he would like to see it with his own eyes.
"If she gets angry, I would like to see her angry. Unfortunately, not only will she not get angry at me, but she has also never lost her temper in front of me.”Leo sounded extremely aggrieved, but his eyes were undisguised arrogance.
Dona glanced at him and could only laugh foolishly. Then, he watched him leave his sight with wild and unruly steps and couldn't help but sigh.
The VIP room on the third floor of Eden was about 10 square meters in size. In the small room, there was a four-poster bed that looked like a medieval era and a few cabinets made of high-quality wood. Beside the magic glass window, there was a rectangular marble table with an ancient mythical beast carved on it. There were also two soft leather sofa chairs beside it.
Looking up, he could see a pair of slender legs resting on the marble table. Looking to the side, he could see a handsome figure leaning lazily on the sofa, his elbows resting on the handle and his cheeks resting. A pair of dark green deep eyes were slightly narrowed as he stared at the scenery outside the window. He stared at this ambiguous and unrestrained independent kingdom, which was blooming in the night.
How long had it been since he last came here? Julian tilted his head and thought about it. He recalled that the last time he came here, it was Bing Hui who accompanied him. Now, he was the only one left to reminisce that bitter memory.
Looking at every corner that he had once interacted with, it would only make him miserable. However, he could not forget all of this freely. He walked through every place he was with. Although he was in pain, he fell in love with the pleasure of self-torture.
He didn't want to continue suffering, but he couldn't let go of this relationship. Because he had never loved or been moved, once he gave, he would give everything he had. And after giving everything to someone and not getting anything in return, he was destined to live his life with an empty shell.
He had loved so low-key and so painfully. Whether it was in the beginning or in the end, he was the only one left to face the ridicule in the room. He suddenly had the urge to laugh out loud.
Once upon a time, the insufferably arrogant him had become so miserable, and he seemed to be in so much pain when alone.
The pain that seeped into his bones made him seem even more lonely in the midst of the bustling scene.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?”
Julian suddenly looked up and looked at Vesla, the person in charge of Eden and his good friend. He smiled faintly. "Long time no see."
"Long time no see indeed, Julian.”Vesla sat in the seat in front of him and stared at his long legs on the table.
Julian put down his leg knowingly and lit a cigarette out of habit, narrowing his dark green eyes. "If I didn't have something to ask of you, I think it would be very difficult for us to meet again.”He blew out a puff of smoke, his expression unchanged.
"How far do you think Milan is from Venice?”He retorted as a matter of course. "I haven't seen you for many years, yet you're saying such things the moment you speak. However, you said that you have something to ask of me. Could it be that you want me to find you a few outstanding children?”
"What do you think?" He was still smiling faintly, and his cryptic eyes made it impossible for others to guess his thoughts.
"I don't think you need it, right?" Vesla didn't notice anything strange about him and spoke happily. "I remember that five years ago, you were having a heated fight with Bing Huo. Your cold face was smiling like a woman who was doted on. Now that I think about it, I can't help but want to laugh. Why did you suddenly come here? Did the couple fall out?”
Julian laughed at himself and said lightly,"Based on that, you think that my relationship with him is so ambiguous?”If he said that he had never touched a soldier, would he believe it?
"Isn't that so?" Vesla's eyes widened when he heard that. Looking at the strange smile on his lips, she couldn't help but ask,"Don't tell me…you didn't touch…"
Oh! No, he couldn't ask. God, if they didn't have that kind of relationship, didn't that mean that all of this was because of Julian? Wouldn't that be too tragic! He did not forget how passionate he was when he fell in love. If that was all his one-sided obsession, then…
"It's not that tragic. At least I once held a gun to him and forced him to kiss me.”Now that he thought about it, even he wanted to laugh. He really didn't know what he was thinking. Why would he use such a stupid method to threaten him?
However, once she fell in love, even if she knew that it was impossible, she would still use the most stupid way to absorb any warmth from him, even if it was to threaten his life.
Wasn't this tragic enough? "But what is it that you want to ask of me? I don't know what I can ask of you.”Even this shop was funded by him. How could he help him?
"I'm getting married and I want to arrange the wedding here.”He said it lightly, as if it had nothing to do with him.
" Marriage!" Vesla couldn't help but scream.
"Why does everyone who knows that I'm getting married have the same expression on their faces?”He narrowed his eyes and smiled nonchalantly.
"You're getting married. Of course it's a big deal!”Vesla patted his forehead and wondered if he should speak. But after a while, he could not control himself." How can you get married? You don't want to get married at all, do you? Moreover, your old man knows that you only want men, and you don't care about what others think of you. Why did you decide to get married at this time? Could it be that the incident with Bing Hui has given you a huge blow?”He knew that it was inappropriate for him to ask, but if he had to hold back his questions, he might die from internal injuries.
"Last month, I held a wedding of the century at my studio in Milan. I wonder if you know?”Seeing Vesla's awkward smile, the answer was self-evident. "I organized that wedding for Bing Hui. It was the end of my five-year-long relationship.”
He was unwilling to let himself suffer any longer, so he chose the cruelest way to force himself to awaken and force himself to let go. Otherwise, he was afraid that he would keep hurting himself and Bing Hua unknowingly.
Bing Huo was the only person in this world he didn't want to hurt. He would do everything to protect him, and naturally, he wouldn't allow himself to hurt him. No matter what, he would rather hurt himself to protect him.
" I see…" Hmm, should he say something to comfort her?
Was he telling him this because he had decided to get married because Bing Qiao was married? He didn't know what kind of person Bing Huo was, but he knew very well that Julian couldn't accept a woman at all. However, if he insisted on getting married…it was fine.
If Julian had decided to get married, he could only wish him well.
"I want to get married for other reasons, not for Bing Bing.”If it was for him, he did not need to get married, right? He had not given up on himself to that extent.
The marriage was only for the Gerado Family.
"I know." However, he was still a little stunned. "But has the date been set?"
"On the last day of the Carnival.”He put out the cigarette in his hand and lit another one subconsciously. His dark green eyes narrowed lazily. "I'm planning to use my wedding to hold a summer press conference, so it has to be on the last day of the Carnival.”
"Is that so? If that's the case, it's very simple. I'll definitely vacate the entire Eden, even if I offend my old customers.”Vesla patted his chest dutifully, looking very heroic and funny.
"Then I'll thank you in advance.”He was still smiling calmly, his deep eyes still looking out the window.
"Do you still need to thank me?”Vesla could not help but roll his eyes, and his handsome face was slightly sullen. "This shop isn't entirely mine, so you naturally don't have to thank me.”Pfft, after not seeing each other for so many years, he actually became so polite. How strange.
"By the way, I also want you to help me find someone.”
"Looking for someone?"
"I'm guessing he's also someone who frequents private clubs.”This was his judgment based on his understanding of Venice.
"What are his characteristics?" Vesla asked excitedly.
" Special traits…" He pondered for a while, but he did not know how to say it.
In fact, he rarely paid attention to a person's appearance. The beauty he felt was not the beauty of the skin, but the charm emitted by the person, a kind of magic that could not be ignored.
The shock he felt from the young man he met this afternoon was due to this. Then, it was mixed with a little laziness that was similar to that of the soldier. And what attracted him the most was the unique characteristics of Bing Bing.
"Don't tell me you can't even tell me a characteristic?”He could not help but cry out.
In recent years, young people in Venice had been moving out, and the number of young people still staying in Venice had decreased year by year. However, no matter how few they were, if he did not tell him their characteristics, he would not be able to gather all the young people in Venice to Eden. Uh…He can't be that ruthless, right? They forced him to do such an inhumane thing.
"He has a head of unforgettable blond hair that doesn't belong to a Venice man, and a pair of blue-green eyes that are like the Adelaide Sea. His face made it hard to tell his nationality, but it could be considered top-grade.”Purely based on the evaluation he might have in a private club.
" Don't tell me the person you're talking about is…" Vesla listened to his description seriously. There was only one person in his mind, but this person was a little difficult to deal with. Even he might not be able to handle him.
"You know about it?" He raised his eyebrows, put out the cigarette, and subconsciously looked out the window again, as if he didn't care much about this matter.
But when he looked down, he suddenly saw that figure.
"It's him!" He couldn't help but shout and stand up.
He was like a glowing object. Even though he had not seen his face, he could guess that it was him from his back and the way he walked.
“Voghera。”Vesla sighed.
"Cheetah?" He turned around and looked at him.
"He is the number one player in Eden. Cheetah is his nickname. As long as it is something he wants, he will immediately snatch it and never fail.”Vesla introduced him briefly. "I don't know if you remember, but three years ago, I called you to tell you that I picked up a beautiful child from Lido Island, and he was that child. I've trained him to be like this for the past three years. Sebastian."
Sigh, forget it. Even if he had said this before, he would not remember it.
"I want him." said Julian suddenly with determination.
"Huh?" Vesla was stunned and quickly pushed him away. "No, he doesn't like men, and he doesn't serve men. Besides, don't you never touch goods?”
Julian looked away from the glass window and looked at him with a little amusement. "Who said I wanted him to serve me?”
"Huh?" Otherwise?
"Bing Huan, who was supposed to take the lead, is currently in his newlywed period. I don't want to trouble him, so I lack a model that can attract everyone's attention and express my clothing style.”He really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Did he look that thirsty?
"I understand."
If that was the case, Leo would naturally go all out!#
