Quick Time Travel: Self-immolation

"Qin Qin, I'm back." Bai Qin heard Lin Xia say to himself.The upward curve of the other party's mouth, the details of his expression, and the gaze he was looking at him, including his address, and even his clothes, were all very familiar.Yes, just like the wife who stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and called her name a few years ago.

If he changed his body, if he changed his face, Bai Qin would have no doubt that it would be his dead wife.

She had this illusion before, but it felt more obvious at this moment, it was almost like... like a deliberate imitation full of malice!

She suddenly became displeased.Even though she was still worried about her before meeting Lin Xia, it was not an adulterated worry at all, but now her feelings have been completely overturned.

She didn't want to see this scene at all.

Her dead wife existed in her heart like a white moonlight, and there was no room for offense.

Even Lin Xia, who she likes a little bit, can't do it.

Like... Yes, the one-month separation made her have to admit that she liked this dishonest little reporter a little bit, and was also attracted by that little guy, just like she received a letter in her lonely days. A favorite gift, rejoice and cherish it, don't allow others to covet a little bit, at least when you still like it, it must belong to you completely.

A God-given gift that fits my heart in every way, and I am reluctant to throw it away.

The unexpected resemblance of this unexpected gift to her beloved did not mean she needed a poor imitation, and she never thought she needed a substitute to remember her deepest love. Beloved, this is where she differs from Ari.

She doesn't want to see her hard-won favorite baby turned into an inferior copy. She distinguishes Lin Xia from Lin Xia very clearly, and occasionally getting confused is only a matter of a moment.

Lin Xia became like this, to be honest, she was very upset.

Even though she was unhappy, Bai Qin didn't have the habit of throwing people's faces in person. She had worn this smiling mask for too long and couldn't take it off.Just like at this moment, although she was a little displeased in her heart, she showed nothing on her face.

"Reporter Lin." She called the other party's name, speaking slowly, as gentle and elegant as a serenade. It was her usual tone, which would be misunderstood as a soft and secret language between lovers.

But Lin Xia burst out laughing after she called out her name. This laugh completely destroyed the atmosphere that she had deliberately created before, as if she had suddenly changed into a different person.

"Pfft, Bai Qin, long time no see, do you miss me?" He said without forgetting to tease, coupled with a sunny smile, this is the little reporter Lin Xia!

Bai Qin was surprised by her transformation.

"I know you have a lot of questions you want to ask me, but can we talk in another place?" Lin Xia approached her, muttering in a low voice, "I'm so tired, I've been in the car for a long time, and I can't stop rushing back , ran here without doing anything..." After muttering, she looked up at Bai Qin, and said emotionally, "Bai Qin, don't you invite me in? You know, you are the one I want after I're back to the world". The person who ranks first among the people I meet!"

"……My pleasure."

"Haha, you should have said that as early as the moment I said I like you, cherish it a lot!"

"Yes." Bai Qin cooperated with her helplessly, with a smile on his face, but he was very surprised in his heart.

Reporter Lin is still the same reporter Lin, nothing has changed. What I saw before was just a fleeting mirage.

Although surprised, he didn't take the initiative to ask.

Afterwards, the two entered Bai's house. On the way, Lin Xia reported to the newspaper office and Wei'an that they were safe. After finishing, they put away their mobile phones, and casually said to Bai Qin beside him:

"Actually, I was locked up by Allie this month."

"Ellie?"

"That's right, it's that lunatic from Boen's family! That lunatic woman insisted that I learn to be another person, to learn that person's preferences, that person's habits, and even some details of his demeanor!" Speaking of his previous experience, Lin Xia Still looking angry, "It's crazy!"

"Why do I have to be a copy of another person? I am me!" Speaking of this, Lin Xia showed a trace of complacency on his face, "Fortunately, I am smart. How can ordinary people change all their habits and preferences in such a short period of time? It’s different, it only took one month to meet Ellie’s standard and regain my freedom!”

Bai Qin was silent.

She could guess who Ellie Boen wanted Lin Xia to transform into a replica. The illusion before was probably the result of their month. To be honest, it was quite similar.

What she didn't expect was that Lin Xia had no intention of hiding what happened this month.

Lin Xia held it back for more than a month, and now that the ban was lifted, she couldn't stop for a while, and vomited out all her complaints, nagging, and Bai Qin, who glanced around him from the corner of her eye, became more and more silent, suddenly After a pause, put away the complacency on his face, and admitted dejectedly: "Okay, I admit it, I can meet Ellie's request so quickly not because I am smart or talented, but because I discovered that some of my habits The hobbies are quite similar to... the person who studied."

She didn't say the name of her study object, because she knew that name was very meaningful to Bai Qin.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not proud of it at all. I like you, and I hope you like me. I hope you like me purely. I don't show off how similar I am to so-and-so to get your attention. Meaning." She still has this bit of pride.

Bai Qin remained silent.Lin Xia gave up on herself a bit: "Forget it, forget it, forget it if you don't believe me!"

After she finished speaking, she stopped in her tracks, because of Bai Qin's silence, she was also a little angry, and she changed her words as if she was awkward when she first met, "I suddenly remembered that I have something to do, so I won't bother you today. "

Bai Qin didn't say anything to persuade her to stay, Lin Xia was a little discouraged, she gritted her teeth and said angrily, "I'm going home!"

After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but the gesture of turning around showed hesitation, and the steps of leaving were also full of nostalgia.

She doesn't want to go.

She was forced to be isolated from the world for nearly a month. The first thing she wanted to do after she came out was to meet Bai Qin. Now that she saw her, how could she be willing to leave like this!

She is waiting for Bai Qin to stay...

"I believe you." Bai Qin held her hand to prevent her from leaving, "I don't believe you, I'm just thinking about what Ai Li wants to do."

As she wished, the smile on Lin Xia's face grew bigger and bigger. She held Bai Qin's hand behind her back, and touched it like a lick: "Hey, what do you think about that woman, you think about me is enough!"

Bai Qin: "..."

Regarding the fact that Lin Xia regained her vitality so easily, she finally just let out a helpless sigh.

She let her hold her hand, with a rare serious expression: "Lin Xia, no matter what Ai Li wants to do, I hope you understand one thing. In my eyes, you are just Lin Xia. I didn't treat you as someone else before." The people who are here will never do so in the future, just be yourself."

Lin Xia paused, then narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Of course, I don't care about being a substitute! I want to pull your heart back from others."

Regarding this, Bai Qin just smiled.

I haven't seen Bai Qin for a month. When Lin Xia returned to her job as a reporter, she lived in the white mansion with a stern face. She didn't think it was too far away from her work place.

Ai Li didn't come to look for Lin Xia again, not to mention that Bai Qin didn't know her purpose of training Lin Xia, even Lin Xia himself couldn't figure out the other party's mind.

However, this month's difference has changed a bit, the relationship between Bai Qin and Lin Xia has improved a lot.

It was also at this time that Lin Xia knew that Bai Qin's favorite hobby was painting. She had a studio full of her own paintings. From Lin Xia's point of view, every piece could be sent to the competition. Like what Bai Qin once said is a clumsy painting.

Most of Bai Qin's paintings are butterflies, but Lin Xia saw a figure painting called "Butterfly" among the butterfly paintings in the room. In the painting is a smiling girl who covers herself with one hand Half of the face, the half of the face under the green onion finger is as scary as a ghost, but the other half of the face is extremely beautiful.

At first glance, the impact of such a face is extraordinary, Lin Xia's heart was beating palpitatingly, she couldn't help reaching out and touching the corner of the girl's smiling mouth.

Bai Qin didn't know when he came to her side.

"This painting is from my early painting studies."

Lin Xia's eyes were still glued to the painting: "I like it."

Bai Qin squinted at the painting, and asked, "Why? It's not brilliant, is it?"

In fact, as she said, the painting is not brilliant, it is just an immature work that stimulates the eye with strong conflicting tones and unexplained meanings as gimmicks.

"I like it for no reason." Lin Xia stared at the painting obsessively, "Why is it called "Butterfly"?"

She asked because there were no butterflies in the painting.

Bai Qin said: "Because the painting is not finished."

Lin Xia asked: "Why didn't you finish the painting?"

Bai Qin didn't know what he thought of, and smiled lightly: "Because it's unnecessary."

Lin Xia turned to look at her: "Then can you give it to me after it's finished?"

Bai Qin glanced at her, and said casually, "You like my paintings very much."

Lin Xia asked her for her paintings more than once, she remembered it clearly.

Lin Xia didn't deny it: "I not only like your paintings, but also your people!"

"puff."

"Qin Qin, just give it to me, I like it so much!" Lin Xia acted obediently and coquettishly, "Give it to me..."

However, it didn't impress Bai Qin, she shook her head: "This one won't work."

Lin Xia was very disappointed, the light in his eyes suddenly went out: "Why not?"

Seeing her lost look, Bai Qin couldn't help but raised his hand to touch the top of her hair, and explained: "There is my scheming in this painting."

"Scheming?" Lin Xia almost thought that the other party was talking about "heart".

"That's right, scheming." Bai Qin said in an affirmative tone.
