The mist is heavy, and there is always a slender figure who comes uninvited.

With anticipation, Bai Yan pushed open the door of Xiangxi's house.The door was naturally unlocked.

Bai Yan searched the whole house, only the light on the bedside table in the bedroom was on.

"Why do I always find you in such an unexpected place?" Bai Yan said looking down at Xiang Xi who was sitting on the kitchen floor.

Xiangxi heard the sound and didn't even look at it, and didn't answer.

"What are you doing on the ground?" Bai Yan asked again.

"Look at the moon," Xiang Xi said leisurely, "Why are you here again?"

"I'm here to put you to sleep," Bai Yan added after thinking for a while, "You better lock your door."

"Sit down," looked westward to the seat next to him.

Bai Yan was a little surprised when he heard the words, so he sat down and said, "Why don't you drive me away today?"

With a lazy and casual smile on the corner of Xiangxi's mouth, he paused every word: "Hurry up, will you leave? Waste of tongue."

Outside the window, a round of bright moon halos silvery white brilliance.

Bai Yan couldn't help laughing in a low voice: "You really understand me more and more."

"I didn't come to you until I finished Brave New World," he continued, "I read the original version, and I didn't understand everything. I know that in that future new world, family, love, religion , art, even personality, and emotions all disappeared. Human beings are divided into five social classes, alpha, beta, gamma, delta and epsilon. Even so, no matter which class they are in, people are told that their class is the most Happiness, the luckiest thing. Even in the new world where there is nothing to worry about, John, one of the protagonists, still chooses poetry that can express conflict and pain. Is that so?"

Xiang Xi nodded thoughtfully, but said nothing.

"Why do you read books like that?"

"Are you just like John, who knew that Shakespeare would be sad and troublesome, but still pursued it like a moth to a flame?"

"I don't think I'm free," Xiang Xi said with a faint smile, his eyes darkened, "I need to think."

Bai Yan's expression changed when he heard the words, and he suddenly felt stuffy in his heart. He pulled the other party to stand up, grabbed his hand and carried him into the bedroom.

"You hurt me," there was a scratch on Xiang Xi's fair skin.

"Sorry, before I met you, I didn't know I would have so many emotions," Bai Yan said truthfully.

"Lie down first, don't think about it for a while, what you need now is sleep."

"I'll play you a relatively relaxing Korean song, "Ariel" by ideaead. The meaning of the lyrics is that the reason why I miss you and pursue you is because you are attracted like gravity. look at me..."

Xiang Xi patted the place next to him, and said, "I won't sleep until you lie down."

Bai Yan had no choice but to admit defeat and also lay down, lying outside the quilt.

When the music started, the two were silent for a long time, so long that they thought the other was asleep.

Without warning, Xiang Xi grabbed Bai Yan's hand and said to himself, "Why are your hands so long and beautiful? Where did you come from, and where are you going?"

"Do you really want to know?" Bai Yan turned to look at him.

"It's up to you whether you say it or not," the words were somewhat duplicity.

"If you sleep well, I will definitely tell you."

The other party gouged him out and felt a little reluctant to sleep.

The daytime is like another world, full of hustle and bustle, and it is easy to lose yourself.Once it's night, you can temporarily forget your troubles and sorrows and be yourself.

Thinking of this, Xiangxi felt relieved, and gradually fell asleep with a relieved smile.
