Xia Qin did not call the police because of Chen An's "missing". Perhaps, his "missing" was as expected. When she returned to the rental house at night, she sat on the small sofa, holding a magazine in her hand that I don't know if it was used to hide her inner discomfort. She nodded to Chen An expressionlessly, and said just to say, "Are you back?"

"I'm back."

Seeing that Xia Qinan Ran was fine, Chen An couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was not afraid that Xia Qin would show his face to him. After all, he was wrong first. Whether Xia Qin beats or scolds, he can stand firm. But if Xia Qin has an accident for him, Chen An will really regret it.

An angry woman needs to be coaxed, and Chen An naturally understands this truth. Even if they know each other's roots and have the same mind, if some things are not spoken out in public, they will eventually leave a shadow of unrelieved in their hearts. Breakups between lovers are usually accumulated and expanded by this little haze, and eventually they will completely explode one day.

A senior once said that love has a shelf life, and the taste of the first year is as sweet as honey. As time goes by, the taste of love will begin to deteriorate slowly. If you do not have the means to keep it fresh, or if you cannot transform into a family affection with a longer shelf life before love deteriorates, then this love will most likely end in failure.

Chen An and Xia Qin are childhood sweethearts, but the reality is that most childhood sweethearts did not come together in the end, because everyone is too familiar with each other, and the feeling of friendship and family is completely greater than love. Although there are exceptions in everything, childhood sweethearts seem to withstand the challenge of time. The problem is that no one can guarantee that they can stay with each other forever.

Patience has its limits.

If Chen An repeatedly commits similar "missing" behaviors, it is difficult to ensure that Tian Xiaqin will really break up with him.

Now, Xia Qin needs an explanation, an explanation that can make her relieved.

Her eyes kept staring at Chen An because she was waiting for his speech and his explanation.

"I met that mysterious tavern."

Chen An brought a chair from the table and sat directly opposite Xia Qin, skipping the comforting and coaxing people straight to the point.

Compared to comfort, what she probably wants to hear the most is the specific details of his "missing".

"real?"

Xia Qinru was stunned for a moment as she imagined, then looked at Chen An with a half-believing and half-doubted expression on her face.

"Do you think I need to lie to you?" Chen Andu said.

"You have deceived me once in the morning." Xia Qin said in a cold tone.

"..." Chen An said silent for a moment. "I am not intentionally trying to deceive you, but some things must be solved by myself."

"You want to say that everything you do is for the sake of good, right?" Xia Qin's words were full of ridicule and stinginess. This was a side she rarely showed, which shows that she was really angry this time.

For some reason, the more angry Xia Qin was, the more calm Chen An was. Now, he had no idea what the woman in the tavern felt when facing him. Perhaps in her eyes, he was as ridiculous as a monkey with fangs and claws.

"I saw that woman in the tavern. She admitted in person that the abnormalities that happened to me were all the consequences of her." Chen An seemed to deliberately avoid Xia Qin's questioning and continued to talk about the topic of the tavern.

"What then?" Xia Qin said with a cold expression.

"She said a lot, and the only thing I remember was..." As she said that, Chen An and Xia Qin intersected their eyes and said word by word. "This is not the world I should come from."

"What does it mean?" Xia Qin frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Literally, this is not my real real world. I think I have to go back. If it is too late, I will completely die in the real real world." Chen An took a deep breath and said.

"Chen An!!!" Xia Qin closed her eyes, and her chest began to fluctuate. When she opened her eyes again, the excitement suddenly burst out. She suddenly stood up from the small sofa, stepped forward and grabbed Chen An's shoulder and shook violently. "You are nervous? You believe whatever she says? Or is it all your fantasy?"

"Xia Qin! Calm down!" Chen An, who almost fell down with the chair, calmed down and immediately hugged Xia Qin to stop her extreme behavior.

"How do you want me to calm down?! You are completely crazy now and you even want to commit suicide! Do you think I can calm down?" Xia Qin struggled desperately in Chen An's arms, slapped her hands randomly. "No! I have to call my uncle and aunt here, and now I will take you to see the doctor!"

"After all, you still don't believe everything I said, right?" Chen An showed a bitter smile on his face, and no matter how Xia Qin resisted, he hugged her tightly in his arms.

"It's so absurd! Everything is so absurd! I really want to believe you, Chen An, but how can I believe your current situation?" Xia Qin cried out with a sob.

"The problem is, I haven't said that I want to commit suicide!" Chen An said helplessly.

"..." Xia Qin's body stiffened, as if she had been stationary. After a while, she sniffed, held Chen An's body and leaned back, and looked at him with rosy eyes blankly. "Don't you really want to commit suicide?"

"Why am I committing suicide?" Chen An said while shaking his head, holding Xia Qin back to the sofa. "Suicide cannot solve my problems. According to the prompts she gave me, I only need to overcome my fears and return to the real reality."

"Do you still firmly believe that what she said is true?" Xia Qin was silent for a while.

"I know you think this is all absurd and bizarre, incredible, but why can't you assume that if all this is true?" Chen An said in a harmonious voice.

"According to your opinion, is this world all fake and illusory, and even me, right?" Xia Qin bit her lip and stared at Chen An with a trembling voice.

"No, this world is real, you are real, too." Chen An smiled slightly, because he finally understood what she said. "I don't belong to this world."

"Crazy...crazy...Chen An, you are really crazy..." Xia Qin murmured to herself.

“It’s time to end it all.”

Chen An patted Xia Qin on the shoulder, as if full of relief.

a long time.

He said.

"Come out, I know, you're always by my side."

He said this to Xia Qin.

The next moment, Xia Qin, who was in a daze, suddenly stretched out her hands and pinched Chen An's neck with a ferocious look, and directly pressed him on the small sofa and couldn't move.

"Uncle, come on your life!"

"No, you can't take my life away."

Although Chen An's face turned red by being pinched, he spoke with great peace and difficulty.

"The more I am afraid, the stronger your strength is. In this way, I will always be lost in time until my soul is gone... When I no longer fear, you will disappear, and I will return to the true reality."

"No! Impossible!"

"Xia Qin" pinched Chen An's neck even more crazily, but her slightly panicked tone betrayed her heart.

"Why aren't you afraid? Why aren't you afraid? It's impossible..."

"Fear comes from the unknown. When the unknown no longer becomes fear, fear will naturally disappear."

Chen An's lips curled up inexplicably and looked at "Xia Qin" with a smile.

"You, you are not..."

"Xia Qin" widened her eyes and looked at Chen An in disbelief. However, before she could finish her words, the whole world turned into countless fragments and collapsed into the dark abyss.

After a long dizzy moment, the confused consciousness that could not be thoughtful gradually awakened.

“…”

When Chen An slowly opened his eyes and saw the familiar bedroom scene around him, the thick curtains could still vaguely see the white light reflected in the early morning.

"Are you finally back?"

He murmured in a long sigh.

"Do you think it's really going to end so easily?"

Clinker, but a faint sound came from my ears.

Chen An turned his face stiffly, and saw Xia Qin looking at him with a meaningful smile.

...

...

Click-

Tavern.

The crystal clear wine glass in the woman's hand inexplicably cracked during the wiping process. She raised her eyebrows and threw it away at the trash can not far away.

"Another failed product?"

At this time, someone opened the curtain and broke in.

"Ha, I'm so lucky. I didn't expect that there were people opening shops in this corner."

"Hello, welcome, sir, what do you want to order?"

The woman looked at the guests who broke in with a business smile, or she was greeting "Chen An".
