It was a clear morning, as usual.
Xiao Xu, an office worker, yawned as he left his home.
Day after day, repeating yesterday, the monotony of life made him listless and unable to summon any enthusiasm so early in the morning.
He started work early, appearing on the streets at the same time as the pancake stall every day.
Just as Xiao Xu was heading towards the pancake stall, he felt that something was amiss halfway there and glanced to the side.
There, a large shopping center was under construction, claiming to be some new landmark. Recently, several meter-high hoardings had been erected, majestically towering over the site.
But having seen it so many times, it was no longer impressive.
Only the night before, in the late hours, there was light and commotion, it seemed they were changing the hoardings, making a fuss for quite a while.
Xiao Xu was also affected by it and didn't sleep well.
At that moment.
