Case [-]: Lu Xingchuan

Age: 27

Occupation: Lawyer

Sleep Difficulty: Four Stars

Background music: QuietResourcebyEvelynStein

Bai Yan thought that tonight was the same as usual, but the wind was blowing a little bit stronger, and the moon had gone somewhere to hide.

The original appointment was to go to the residence of Internet writer Yu Menghan, but his stepfather called him and said that the schedule had changed.

His itinerary has never been the same, and change means conflict.

Bai Zhe came to Lu Xingchuan's house with a feeling of anxiety.

For some reason, he always felt that something was wrong, whether it was the way the other party looked at him, or the hostility hidden in his smile.

"Bai Yan," Lu Xingchuan said arrogantly, "I heard that you will play some comfortable music for insomniacs when you put them to sleep, play one for me?"

Bai Yan was absent-minded for a while, and nodded, "Okay, Mr. Lu, I'll find you a song."

The white and slender fingers skillfully searched for the music, and then pressed the machine.

"This is "Quiet Resource" by Evelyn Stein, maybe Mr. Lu will like it?"

The song was played in a loop several times, and finally Lu Xingchuan said, "The taste is not bad."

"Bai Yan," he continued, "do you like men?"

Bai Yan's breath sank when he heard the words: "Why did Mr. Lu suddenly ask this question?"

"You answer yes, or no?"

When asked by the other party, Bai Yan thought for a moment before replying: "The person I like happens to be a man too."

Unexpectedly, Lu Xingchuan suddenly raised his voice: "Stay away from him, don't see him again for his own good!"

Bai Yan frowned suddenly, puzzled: "Mr. Lu, what does this mean? I don't understand."

"Did I not make it clear enough? I want you to stay away from Xiangxi and stop looking for him."

These words were like a bolt from the blue, and also like a flash of lightning, splitting all of Bai Yan's doubts.

"Mr. Lu, is it because of you that Xiangxi refused to see me? Later, I went to him twice, but he refused to open the door or answer the phone."

"Xiang Xi has never liked to be in contact with men," Lu Xingchuan said, "I was surprised that he saw you that day, but I also hope that you can keep a distance from him."

"Mr. Lu, Xiangxi once told me that he feels that he has no freedom. It's not that he doesn't like to contact men, but that you restrict his freedom. Am I right?"

"I," Lu Xingchuan paused, "I just don't want to see him get hurt again."

Bai Yan was puzzled: "Hurt? How could I hurt him?"

"You do not understand!"

The two stalemate like this for a long time, Lu Xingchuan didn't want to confide any more words, and Bai Yan was also helpless.

Time ticked by, Lu Xingchuan paced back and forth in the room, silent.

Bai Yan waited until he was lying on the bed before leaving silently.

Now that his stepfather has received double the orders for Bai Yan, he doesn't know if he will have a chance to see Xiang Xi again in the future.Even if they meet, so what, they are all people without freedom.

Or maybe they are each other's freedom.At least they still have the freedom to like each other.

But, does Xiangxi really like herself?Bai Yan didn't have the confidence either.No one has ever liked himself as much as he likes Xiangxi.From the first time I saw him, his every word and deed, every frown and smile, left a deep imprint on my heart.

Bai Yan was thinking about this, and he had unconsciously come to Yu Menghan's house.

The author has something to say: This song by Evelyn Stein is really nice. If you can’t find it, you can leave a QQ and I’ll send it to you.
