The man had long, soft, silver-white hair cascading down to his waist. When the evening breeze blew, his hair gently swayed with a graceful elegance.

The radiant moonlight shone down from above, casting a faint white halo around the man.

He stood there, with handsome features and smooth facial contours, looking unbelievably beautiful.

His skin was fair and radiant, exuding a gentle warmth that felt like basking in the spring breeze.

The man wore a pure white attire, adorned with a light blue gemstone at the collar, adding a touch of refinement and nobility. His eyes matched the color of the gemstone on his chest, emitting a subtle blue hue, resembling the vast expanse of the light blue sky on a boundless day, capable of encompassing everything.

Bai Lixin stared at the man in a daze and blurted out, “Who are you, handsome?”

The man: “…”

In the live broadcast room

[Hahaha, soul hit: who are you, handsome?]

[God Xin: I am stupid.]

[Ah, is this the Big boss?]

[ Looking at the face… it looks a lot like him.]

[ Is he Jia’er?]

[Doesn’t seem like Jia’er. Jia’er’s face is more seductive and stunning, while this person appears more elegant and gentle. One is a seductive beauty, the other a refined and tender beauty?]

[He looks so handsome. He has the big boss’s face, but his features are softer and gentler, and his eyes are so beautiful.]

[When I saw him, it was as if I saw a big light bulb. Why scare people with such a glow at night!]

[ Are you okay? If you really want to describe it, shouldn’t it be the moon?]

[Wow, a “big light bulb.” I think it will take me a long time to heal; I can’t forget this adjective.]

[Hahaha, the big boss has become a big light bulb.]

[So here’s the question, is this person Jia’er, or someone else?]

[That’s a good question, and I have the same answer: I don’t know either.]

[??? Let me say thank you. Because of you, my season feels warm.]

The man held a pure white umbrella, and each umbrella leaf tilted to one side, their edges neatly aligned at the same angle.

The handle of the umbrella had a classical curved shape, and the man wore a pair of pure white gloves, delicately pressing the umbrella’s tip against his forehead.

“You have attracted the attention of a demon,” the man spoke again, his words concise and succinct.

Baili Xin stood under the apple tree, his expression not showing much surprise. “So what?”

The man’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. “Aren’t you afraid or worried at all?”

Baili Xin replied, “For someone as morally corrupt as me, being targeted by a demon is only a matter of time. I don’t need you to tell me that I’ll go to hell after I die. I am small-minded and jealous. Even though the Young Master gave me a home, I still envy his talent and status. With a despicable soul like mine, why would an evil demon spare me?”

The man’s eyebrows furrowed even tighter.

“I am a missionary,” the man raised his hand, placing the umbrella against his own face. His gaze turned resolute, and he looked towards the horizon. “I am also a detective.”

His legs were slightly apart, and his white attire fit him impeccably, the cold silver cross insignia embedded at the cuff clearly visible.

He held the pure white umbrella that possessed no offensive capabilities, his appearance warm and elegant, yet between his brows, there emanated an innate holiness and nobility, an aura of dignity that dared not be violated. It made one hesitate to meet his gaze directly.

“My name is Mikailai Luo PaDi. You can call me Padi. The police station sought my help in the evening, saying that a woman had gone missing here, and they asked me to investigate.”

“As I entered this resort, I saw you from a distance.” The man lifted his elegant legs and gracefully approached Bai Lixin.

Standing tall and erect, he raised his hand slightly, and the pure white glove circled around Bai Lixin’s neck, coming to rest at the nape.

With a gentle touch of his fingertip on the nape, a black mark suddenly appeared on Bai Lixin’s skin.

The man’s light blue eyes suddenly turned sharp, and he slightly tugged with his finger. Bai Lixin felt a slight pain in his nape and instinctively frowned.

After a brief struggle with the black mark, the man noticed Bai Lixin’s discomfort and discontinued his previous action. Instead, he tapped the nape of Bai Lixin’s neck a few more times, and a white mark quietly covered the black mark, concealing it within.

“Young man, the back of your neck has been marked by a demon. The power of this demon is formidable. Although I cannot remove the mark, I have added a layer of angelic blessing upon it. This way, if you encounter bewitchment or danger, the angelic blessing will protect you from harm. I will sense your peril and condition, and appear by your side.”

Bai Lixin rubbed the back of his neck thoughtfully. “Thank you.”

Padi’s gaze was gentle. “No need for thanks. When you stood under the apple tree, the golden radiance fell upon your face, as if you were bathing in divine light. I looked at your face from afar, and it looked tranquil and devout, pure and mysterious.”

“Do you know why the demon has targeted you? It is not because your heart is impure; quite the opposite, your soul is clean and clear. Honestly, I have never seen such a beautiful soul like yours. Such a pure soul should not belong to an ugly demon but to the radiance of the divine.”

“Young man, I hope you can stay by my side until this case is resolved. I will take you to the temple where I belong, making you a follower of the divine light.”

“What you said earlier is true. You should not become a servant to anyone. Because you have a greater mission, your pure soul should serve as a sacred emblem. I want you to become a holy child. Are you willing?”

The man’s voice remained tender and soft, as if the words flowing from his mouth were not mere sentences but a melodious song.

Even though it was a negotiating tone, there was no courage to refuse when it came to the ears. And as the man spoke, a golden light enveloped him, and in the air, the light seemed to come to life, swirling and dancing, forming a beautiful set of holy wings.

The wings appeared for only a few seconds before transforming into countless stars, showering down from above.

Bai Lixin could only shake his head to clear his thoughts upon hearing this. “…”

Am angel and demon vying for precedence?

Forgive him, even a dog would be dazed upon hearing this, okay?

————————–

In the live broadcast room:

[Wow, an angel!]

[An arch angel with eight wings!]

[My mom asked why I knelt down, and I said it’s because I couldn’t control myself.]

[So, the demon is… Jia’er?]

[Brother, wasn’t it obvious?]

[Well, Jia’er is the demon, and Padi is the angel. So, in this copy, can we see… hehehe?]

[Hehehe.]

[Hehehehehehe.]

————————–

Bai Lixin leaned slightly to the side, evading the man’s hand. “Let me think about it.”

The angel was not in a hurry. “No rush. The sacred gates are always open to you, little one.”

Bai Lixin asked, “Did you say I shouldn’t touch the apple?”

The angel took two steps forward, standing on the other side of Bai Lixin. He then raised his arm and gently flicked a golden apple tree leaf with his finger.

Instantly, all the leaves rustled. The sound of gold colliding reverberated through the silent night sky, as if the sound itself was softly calling out.

Swish.

Swish.

Swish.

“You cannot touch this,” the angel withdrew his finger, and the swaying metallic sound ceased. “In the Bible, the apple eaten by Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden is also known as the fruit of wisdom.”

“When they consumed the fruit of wisdom, their thoughts changed rapidly.”

“Behind beauty often lies something you cannot bear. Although I’m not sure what this apple truly is, given its appearance, I advise you not to try it.”

“Oh, by the way, why did you come here so late?” The man suddenly turned his head towards Bai Lixin. “Do you know anything about the disappearance of that woman?“

“Little one, tell me your name.”

Bai Lixin’s feet clenched the bottom of his shoes tightly.

Little one? I’m over 30,000 years, what little one?

If it weren’t for the extraordinary beauty of the face before him, he would feel embarrassed by such a term.

With a light cough, Bai Lixin imitated the angel’s serious expression and said, “Dear Lord Padi, of course, I am deeply concerned about the disappearance of that woman. It was me who had the attendant report it to the police in the first place.”

The angel’s brow furrowed imperceptibly. “Do you have any clues?”

Bai Lixin replied, “Not yet. I was just about to investigate when you arrived. If you don’t mind, we can secretly investigate together.”

The angel frowned even deeper, “Why do you use the ‘secretly’?”

Bai Lixin pointed towards the entrance of the resort and said, “If you don’t want, I’ll investigate on my own. That’s the main entrance of the resort. There should be attendants inside. Go in and ask them to arrange a room for you. Goodbye, Mr. Padī.”

Seeing Bai Lixin turn to leave, the angel’s gaze darkened for a moment as he glanced at his figure. Finally, he took a long stride and gracefully walked to Bai Lixin’s side.

With an elegant posture, he explained, “I’d rather accompany you. Late at night is when demons are most active, and with me around, I can protect you.”

As he spoke, he stumbled and took two awkward steps forward.

The angel quickly straightened himself, the embarrassment almost too much for his holy appearance to bear.

He quickly glanced at Bai Lixin, who remained calm and seemed oblivious to his embarrassment.

In the live broadcast room:

[???]

[This angel seems a bit silly and cute?]

[That fall just now was a bit out of character.]

[That fall completely caught me off guard, it had me laughing.]

[So, is there a possibility that angels usually fly around, so they don’t walk much, hence the clumsiness?]

[Are angels really this silly? No wonder the serpent was able to deceive Adam and Eve into eating the apple.]

[Big boss: ??? Who are you calling silly?]

[Sigh, this character setup is so cute. I even find it a bit endearing. Guys, am I abnormal?]

[Hmm… How could that be? Who wouldn’t want a clumsy old gong?]

[Clumsy gong vs. Poker-faced gong.]

[“The Two Men in Retreat and Advance”]

[…Are we witnessing the profundity and grandeur of literature once again?]

[By the way, Jia’er seems to have trouble with his legs, so it’s not just that angels don’t know how to walk, but demons too? Is this a unique characteristic of theirs or a characteristic of this movie?]

[Will there be other angels and demons later? I just imagined a scene of angels and demons fighting. Left side: a group sitting in wheelchairs; right side: a group leaning on crutches. The horizontal scroll reads: Resolute In The Face Of Adversity.]

[??? Brother, you’re wasting your talent if you’re not writing novels.]

[Every time I enter God Xin’s live stream, I feel ashamed because of my incompetence.]

—————————–

The angel leaned on the pure white umbrella, following behind Bai Li Xin. “Where do you want to go?”

They have been walking around the garden for two hours already. Isn’t he tired?

Bai Lixin glanced at the angel, who seemed about to collapse. “By the way, Mr. Padi, have you been to this resort before?”

Padi: “No, if it wasn’t for a call from the police station, I wouldn’t have known about this place.”

Bai Lixin held his chin in thought. “Then how did you get here? From the time the call with the attendant ended until now, it’s only been a little over two hours.”

“When we came by bus, there was only one road, and the nearest town is an hour’s drive away. You arrived so quickly, I thought you would only get here in the middle of the night. How did you get here so fast? Did you fly here?”

Padi’s expression froze.

Bai Lixin: “By the way, how did you get here? I didn’t hear anything when I passed by the resort’s entrance earlier.”

Padi’s eyes showed a complex look, and his lips pursed lightly.

Bai Lixin discreetly sized up the man’s expression before averting his gaze. “Oh, I’ve figured it out! There must be another shortcut, right? The driver dropped you off and left, right?”

Padi’s tense shoulders suddenly relaxed, and his expression became much more relieved. He blushed and nodded his head, then said, “Yes.”

After observing Padi’s reaction, Bai Lixin slowly pondered in his heart.

It seems like he’s not good at lying.

Even if a lie were forced out of his mouth, his demeanor is very honest.

And he even blushes?

So cute.

Who can resist a blushing, gong with wings?
