Crescent Garden, an old apartment complex in the east of A City used to be the city center of A City, and because of its previous prosperity, there were many buildings of historical value left.
The buildings in this area were not very high, with at most about five or six floors. Although they did not look as modern as the new buildings, most residents here were rich locals, and it was easy to find retired people who owned several new houses in this area. The pace of life here was very slow, and people who lived there felt very comfortable and satisfied.
"Did that man come to our restaurant today?" A female employee of a restaurant was looking curiously at the square.
There was an old square in the center of Crescent Garden, and its surrounding environment was very good. There were also many restaurants around. Especially, there was a western restaurant specializing in handmade biscuits and cakes that had a very good business. Many tourists would come from all over the country to enjoy the food there.
But recently, the female employees of this restaurant noticed a very special male guest.
He often patronized the restaurant. He was a little eccentric and liked the seat in the corner the most. He seemed to be a little paranoid about a fixed seat. If the seat he usually sat in was occupied, he would turn around and leave.
Most importantly, the man was very beautiful. He had a tall and slender figure, and his features were very handsome. He looked a little like a mixed-race, especially because his blue eyes were clear and beautiful. His skin was very fair, and so were his arms. His long fingers were clearly jointed. Even his hands were so beautiful.
"Leave that seat in the corner to that beautiful man. The other guests are very happy to see him."
The owner of the restaurant was an old man in his eighties, and he couldn't help but praise that man's appearance.
"He has been coming to our restaurant to have meals for almost half a year. Haven't you got to know what his name was?"
When there were few customers in the restaurant, the female employees liked to gather together and talk about the special male guest.
"You even remember how long he had come to our restaurant for meals?"
"Of course. His appearance and temperament are so special that it's hard to forget about it, okay?" Most of the people who came to work in the restaurant were very young girls. Some of them worked part-time and studied in college, while others dropped out of school to earn money.
At the age of the first awakening of love, women were very enthusiastic and curious about handsome men.
"I don't think he's like an ordinary salaried worker. Look at the shirts and clothes he usually wears... Those are all of the big brands."
"Of course. As for someone like him who is taken care of by god, even if he casually chooses to be a model, he will be a top male model, and his income will be much higher than that of the ordinary working class."
These young girls' enthusiasm was like fire, but no one dared to ask him his name and where he came from for such a long time.
One of the older foremen among them sighed, "I think he has that kind of temperament which make others not dare to walk close..." She just didn't dare to talk to him for fear of disturbing him.
"He might probably be the son of a rich family."
"Then why does he like to go to a restaurant like ours that caters to ordinary people? If he only comes here once or twice, he may just find it's fun to occasionally go to ordinary restaurant. But he's always been ordering the cheapest cake. He hasn't even ordered our most expensive opera cake."
Suddenly, a short-haired girl excitedly pointed at the window of the restaurant and shouted, "Look, he's outside in the square..."
"Where?!"
"A little to the right, under that tree. See? He fell asleep leaning against the tree!" She exclaimed excitedly as if she had seen the person she loved.
"Yes, I see him. He really fell asleep leaning against the tree. God, he looked so handsome when he fell asleep."
A group of female employees was talking about him enthusiastically.
"Hey, hey, hey, ladies, calm down. We are still in the work time." The male staff in the restaurant knocked on the table to remind them.
One of the girls with a ponytail turned around and replied to him, "It's employee benefits to watch a handsome man sleep."
"What's so good about watching a man sleeping?"
"If it were you, we wouldn't be bothered to watch it. Handsome men are different. It is much more eye-catching than the special effects scenes of stars... I wonder whether it would make him angry if I secretly took photos of him."
A group of female employees began to have a heated discussion about whom to send to the tree to secretly take a picture of a handsome man's sleeping face.
The male employees in the restaurant were really jealous and angry. "You are anthomaniacs. A man who is so beautiful must have something wrong with him."
"And that man can fall asleep anywhere. On my way home from work last time, I saw him sitting on a wooden chair and he had actually fallen asleep there. I don't know if he's pretending or not. A lot of women were taking pictures of him around him."
Yes, Derek had been very somnolent recently.
He himself did not know the reason for it. Whether he lay down, sat down, or stood, he wanted to sleep all the time. He could only stay awake for a few hours a day and was in a state of sleepwalking during the rest of the day.
Once, he woke up at the foot of a hillside in the green belt on the side of the road. He was very confused. He probably fell down when he walked by, and then he fell asleep there because he felt sleepy.
Derek brushed down the dust on his body and went back calmly. He didn't take it seriously at all.
It was more unlikely that he would think of himself somehow becoming a hot topic in this neighborhood. Of course, even if someone told him that he was high-profile, he would still be indifferent to it.
Whether you paid attention to me or not had nothing to do with me.
It was Derek's nature, which was always like this.
Derek lived in the old district of Crescent Garden. He chose this place because compared to the bustling city of A City, it made him feel more peaceful.
He liked a fixed life. He would like to choose the same restaurant, eat the cake of the same flavor, and sit on the same stool under the same tree.
He was used to living alone and he hated strangers entering his domain. It would make him uneasy. Even if it was just a cat, it would make him toss and turn in bed, unable to sleep all night.
Derek didn't sleep well last night, and it was all a cat's fault.
