Chapter 209: Qi Ning Extra

Qi Ning left the hospital in a hurry.

Doctors are a busy profession, and it is difficult to leave work on time.

Today, he was delayed for a while, and his appointment with his boyfriend, Cen Wei, was already overdue.

He couldn't remember how many times he had been late, but perhaps because he had also studied medicine, Cen Wei had always been understanding and had never been angry about it.

They went to the same school, but Qi Ning was two years ahead of Cen Wei.

Now Qi Ning has officially become a doctor, while Cen Wei is still worried about his internship.

As we walk along the road, Qi Ning gets a lot of stares from people.

Qi Ning is used to this; he was born with albinism and his white hair and pale skin make him stand out in the crowd, and with his good looks and tall body, he is often the centre of attention.

Qi Ning arrived at her date, a restaurant near the university town, without a glance.

He saw Cen Wei sitting by the window, playing with his mobile phone.

Cen Wei is a sunny type of guy, clean and cheerful, about the same height as Qi Ning, with lots of friends and a smile, but not too rude.

Cen Wei had finished the snack in front of him, he was probably very hungry, but still waited patiently for Qi Ning to leave work, without even calling to urge him on.

Qi Ning sat down across from him, "Sorry, I'm late again."

Cen Wei looked up and smiled, his smile was warm and welcoming, a completely different style from Qi Ning's coolness: "It's normal to be busy as a doctor, you must be hungry after working for so long?"

Cen Wei handed the menu to Qi Ning: "Senior, take a look at what you want to eat, I've just asked around and this is the most popular one here ......"

Qi Ning ordered while listening to Cen Wei's more professional introduction than the waiter.

While waiting for the food to be served, Cen Wei took out a delicate box from his pocket and handed it to Qi Ning: "This is for you, senior."

Qi Ning took it and was a bit confused: "Is it a holiday today?"

Cen Wei said, "No, I just saw it on the road and thought it was something you would like so I bought it."

Qi Ning opened the box.

Inside was a silver vintage necklace with a beautiful floral pattern and a button on the pendant that looked like it could be opened.

He pressed the button and the lid opened. Inside was a picture of Cen Wei in a white coat looking back and smiling, a picture Qi Ning remembered taking of himself.

Cen Wei smiles and asks, "Am I handsome?"

Qi Ning nodded, "Yes."

Cen Wei was waiting for the rest, but there was none. He looked at Qi Ning blearily: "Please compliment me again, senior ......"

Qi Ning gave him a look and didn't say anything, but carefully put the necklace around his neck.

Well, it seems that the word "handsome" is the limit for Qi Ning.

Not long after, their meal was served and they began to eat.

Watching Qi Ning eat, Cen Wei suddenly thought of something that happened not long ago: "Senior, today a girl asked me how I managed to cheat on the flower of the high mountain in the medical school. "

Qi Ning asked nonchalantly, "So what did you say?"

"You were actually the one who chased me, I told you the truth, but no one believed me ......" Cen Wei shoved a mouthful of food into his mouth and chewed indignantly, "Do I have to go back in a time machine to chase you? "

Qi Ning looked at him and brought a little smile to the corner of her mouth, "What? You want to experience the fun of chasing me?"

Cen Wei thought about it, but shook his head, "I don't think you'd bother with someone you're not interested in ...... That said, why do you like me, sir?"

Qi Ning's albinism and striking appearance are coupled with his icy personality.

Many people secretly called him the flower of the medical school, one of those legendary untouchable targets.

The news that he had a boyfriend near the end of his graduation year made a big splash in the school, and the name Cen Wei became widely known.

Qi Ning said calmly, "Love at first sight."

Cen Wei was a little surprised: "When? When I was at the event with you in my junior year?"

Qi Ning said, "Freshman year."

"Eh?" Cen Wei was confused, "Freshman year ...... we seem to have met once ......"

Qi Ning calmly continued eating dinner, "Once, that's enough."

Qi Ning didn't know why, but at that time he dropped his file and a new student came running to return it to him.

It was not a special scene, nor was there any special conversation, but it was as if that sunny smile had shone into his heart, and it gradually took root in the days that followed.

It wasn't until later when they met again for an event that he followed his heart and chose to initiate the approach.

And then later on, there was the present situation.

Probably that's how people are meant to be, some people spend their whole lives together and some people just need to meet once.

Qi Ning feels lucky to have met the person she wants to spend the rest of her life with at such a young age.

And the other person seems to feel the same way.

After dinner, the two of them strolled aimlessly through the streets together.

Cen Wei talked about her schedule: "I'm starting my internship in the emergency department tomorrow and I'm still a bit nervous."

Qi Ning said, "You can do it at your level, but the emergency department is really tough."

Cen Wei looks at the flow of traffic: "I'm not afraid of hard work. I was in the emergency room for a car accident when I was a child. I remember how the paramedics tried to save me then, and I thought at the time that I wanted to be like that in the future."

Qi Ning turns his head and looks at Cen Wei, whose eyes seem to have starlight in the night light.

Cen Wei turned his head and looked at Qi Ning: "We're both doctors, so it looks like we'll have limited time together in the future."

Qi Ning said, "Yes, but we still have many years ahead of us, let's take our time."

Cen Wei smiled, "That's right, when we both retire we'll go around the world together!"

Qi Ning laughed: "We'll be two old men by then."

Cen Wei said, "Even old men can travel around the world, and everyone will have to give up their seats for us."

The two men joked as they walked away, their figures merging into the crowd and becoming harder to find.

Back home, Qi Ning was browsing the news when she came across a story about a white-collar woman who had been killed while leaving work alone.

The murderer had not been caught, only a portrait drawn from a witness' description.

Noticing that the incident took place close to the hospital where Cen Wei works, he forwarded the news to Cen Wei.

[Be careful]

[It's scary, but you should be careful too, the hospital you work at isn't too far away]

[Well, get some rest, good night]

[Good night =3=]

-

The days went by as usual without anything special happening.

A week into Cen Wei's internship.

Late that night, Cen Wei was on duty when the emergency department received a patient who had been injured in a car accident.

After examining him, he was lucky to have only superficial injuries, so Cen Wei treated his wounds.

Cen Wei was not as skilled as the more experienced doctors, but he did a good job of dressing the wound.

After treating the wound, he gave the man some advice on what to do afterwards.

Suddenly, Cen Wei thought the man looked familiar, but he couldn't remember when he had seen him before, so he looked again, but he couldn't remember.

Forget it, he had seen more people this week than he had seen in the previous months, he simply couldn't remember them all and couldn't really recall this person.

He didn't say hello to him, so he didn't know him well, so it was probably just a chance encounter.

After sending the wounded away, Cen Wei turned around and gathered up his medical equipment.

The wounded man who looked honestly ready to leave turned back quietly and stared at Cen Wei's back, he felt the other man's scowl, had ...... the doctor found something?

The man's eyes dropped, hiding the dark, fierce light within.

A few days later.

Cen Wei is on his way home from work.

The emergency department was really busy, and the hospital he was interning at was a well-known hospital, so he was very busy.

He had just finished a night shift, and was immediately followed by a day shift, and by the time he could finally leave work it was already past eleven o'clock.

Now Cen Wei's head felt like it was mush and he wanted to find a bed to lie down and sleep.

Cen Wei took out his phone and looked at it, "I haven't seen Senior for days."

He was about to send a message when he glanced at the time again, "Forget it, Senior should be resting already ......"

Cen Wei put his phone away and decided it was better to go home early.

The path was a bit deserted, and although he was a big man, it was still not considered safe to walk at night.

Suddenly, a figure came out of the greenery next to him.

Before Cen Wei had time to react, a knife was stabbed into his chest.

Cen Wei looked up at the man in front of him and realised that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember.

The man's gloomy gaze fixed on him, "Do you recognize me?"

Cen Wei was confused: "Who are you ...... I don't know you ......"

The man, however, paid no attention to his words and raised his hand before stabbing him with another knife.

Cen Wei felt puzzled as to why a man had suddenly appeared to attack him.

But instinct told him that now was not the time to reason with him, so he tried to dodge the attacking knife, pushed him away and ran in the direction he had come from.

But he was injured in the front and stumbled as he ran.

This, coupled with the constant gushing of blood from his chest wound, made him feel increasingly weak.

It was clear to Cen Wei that this was not going to work and he had to treat the wound immediately, but the men behind him kept chasing him.

Soon the man had caught up with him.

Without waiting for Cen Wei to resist, the sharp blade had already pierced his body, one after the other, as if there was some bitter hatred.

After an unknown number of stabs, the perpetrator left Cen Wei unconscious and disappeared into the night.

"Mmm! Why ...... are you ......" Cen Wei lay alone on the cold ground, feeling the strength in his body dissipating; he wanted to call the police or 120, but his fingers were too heavy to move at all.

Cen Wei's eyes, always smiling, gradually lost their sparkle as he looked at the starry sky above him, his lips moving slightly as he muttered something that no one could hear.

Eventually, stopped breathing.

-

Once again people were killed and the case caused a sensation.

After a thorough police investigation, the suspect was finally identified.

This man, Lu Ren, is a fugitive murderer who was responsible for the previous murders of a female white-collar worker and Cen Wei.

The police have issued an open reward for this man and raised it to a million, hoping that the public will come forward with information.

Qi Ning watched the surveillance.

In the video, the man keeps waving the knife at Cen Wei, each stroke so hard that it cuts off Cen Wei's life a little.

Just after the man had left, Cen Wei tried to struggle to get up, but failed.

His lips were opening and closing, and while there was clearly no sound, Qi Ning read what was there -

"Senior ......"

Qi Ning's eyes were stung by the blood on the ground.

His mind flashed through a myriad of first aid options, but to no avail.

Here is the CCTV footage of Cen Wei, lying in the morgue, pale from blood loss and with no sign of life.

Cen Wei, who has died.

In the light of the video, Qi Ning's face is expressionless and her eyes are dark and uncertain.

-

Lu Ren saw his wanted notice and was annoyed.

After feeling recognized, he stalked the doctor for days and finally picked a suitable location to strike.

Who knew that a shitty place like that had surveillance and caught him red-handed.

Now he's everywhere, he's practically an internet sensation.

This has made him afraid to go anywhere, so he has to find an old house in the old part of town that is to be demolished and hide out.

It had no water or electricity, but no one lived here anymore, so it was a safe place for him.

But he hadn't changed the medicine for his previous car accident for a few days and the wound had started to become inflamed and infected, yet he didn't dare to go out to buy medicine.

Today he couldn't stand it anymore and decided to take advantage of the evening to steal some from the pharmacy.

Late at night, Lu Ren carefully left his hiding place.

He dared to move only in areas that were deserted and unsupervised, and most of these areas were also without street lights, making it very difficult for him to make his way.

Even more unluckily, he was almost at the nearby pharmacy when he stepped on a manhole.

It turned out that the manhole was not a manhole cover at all, probably a makeshift replacement, and with one foot he broke it and stuck his leg in it.

Something sharp underneath had cut deep into his leg and the wound was bleeding so badly that it looked like it was going to be bad.

If he had stayed like this overnight, his body would have been cold the next day.

Lu Ren struggled for half a day without being able to get his leg out and was still in pain, making him sweat profusely.

Suddenly he heard footsteps coming from a short distance away.

Lu Ren cautiously looked over towards where the sound was coming from.

It was a man in a black trench coat, tall, with dark hair and a suitcase in his hand.

The man seemed to be just passing by, but stopped as he passed him.

Lu Ren couldn't move, but he couldn't help but surreptitiously grip his knife tighter.

Unexpectedly the man turned to him and asked, "Do you need help? I'm a doctor."

He seemed to be very gentle and nice and didn't seem to know him.

Lu Ren had an idea and immediately put on an honest and naive face, saying that he was in town looking for work and had accidentally got stuck on his way home.

The doctor was kind enough to pull Lu Ren out and help him back to his temporary accommodation.

He also treated his wounds by the faint light of the candle in the room.

After everything was done, the doctor chatted with Lu Ren: "Why do you live here? There is no electricity or water, and no one else lives here."

Lu Ren said perfunctorily, "I don't have any money, it's a bit hard here, but it's free."

He put on a naive smile as he sized up the doctor.

Although the man looked as if he didn't know him, there was no guarantee he wouldn't know afterwards, to ......

Still, his mouth said, "Thank you, I don't know what to call you?"

The doctor said, "My name is Qi."

Lu Ren said, "That's very kind of you, Dr. Qi."

But Dr Qi asked in return, "Why do you say that?"

Lu Ren was stunned by the question, which seemed like an odd response, but he said, "Because you've helped me like this."

Dr. Kee, however, laughed, his laugh low, with a touch of huskiness and a little bit of madness.

He laughed as he stood up and walked towards his suitcase.

Lu Ren felt puzzled, this man couldn't be a lunatic, could he?

"Dr. Qi what's wrong with you?" He was about to stretch his neck to see what was going on when he suddenly felt a little dizzy in the head, "ouch why am I a little dizzy ...... can you help me again ......"

"Oh, well, I'll take a look at you then." Dr. Kee said gently.

But then he turned around and startled Lu Ren.

Only a frightening beak mask had been added to Dr Qi's face, and he had removed his black wig to reveal his original snow-white hair colour.

He pulled out another black bowler hat and brought it on top of his head, with a silver scalpel clutched to his fingertips.

Lu Ren tensed up at once, and even a fool knew that something was wrong now.

But his body was growing weak: "That ...... Dr Qi ......"

Dr. Qi moved closer to him, "I'll take a good look, there's no need to rush."

Lu Ren wanted to run, but his leg injury, combined with his dizzy head, prevented him from moving and he was left to his own devices.

At this moment, he probably understood what it was like for those who had been killed by themselves.

Just then, there was a sudden silence around them.

Then a darkness as deep as night spread out, gradually engulfing the two men.

"Welcome to the Advent World, you are both the chosen and lucky ones."

Qi Ning played with the scalpel in her hand and turned her head to look at Lu Ren, who was incapacitated.

The corners of his mouth slowly curled beneath the mask.

-

After many years, the Advent Worlds have taken on a new order.

Only those who are between life and death receive an invitation to the Advent World and are informed of the risks involved; it is up to them to decide whether to accept.

The real world has long since returned to peace and quiet, and the disappearance of a man who was once the world's unsolved mystery has been widely discussed to this day.

The time has come for Qi Ning to awaken.

All these years have passed, and he still prefers to walk alone.

There was once someone who lived in his heart, and then it was dug out hard. As deep as that person lived in his heart, the wound was as deep as it could be, and as the years went by, it never showed any signs of healing.

Before awakening, Qi Ning returned to the real world to walk around the places he once knew.

Every time he returns to reality, he does so.

Before he knew it he was walking back down the street near the university town.

It was still full of young faces coming and going, laughing energetically, but they were not the same faces he knew so well.

Qi Ning looked up and saw the sign for the restaurant where he used to date.

It turned out that he was here once again.

He suddenly felt how harsh the sunlight was, how else could his eyes feel sore and even want to weep.

Just then, a voice came from behind him, "Senpai ......"

--------------------

The author has something to say.

Qi Ning: I've thought of two endings for the extra story, but I'm a bit torn so I'll just leave it out, so you can choose the one you like.

-I'll leave it at that.

Ending A.

A young boy, whom Qi Ning had never seen before, was talking to him in a very unskilled way.

Although the man's face was completely changed and his age was different, Qi Ning recognised it at first sight.

But Qi Ning recognises at first sight that this is the man he fell in love with at first sight.

It was Cen Wei, reborn and back.

-Cen Wei

Ending B.

The "senior" is a term of endearment between the other couple.

They are here on a date, just like Qi Ning and Cen Wei were back then, and they are sitting in the same place as they were back then.

-The ending

And of course it could have ended up as C.

Seniors, how about swimming and fitness?

Do you want a part-time job card?

Do you want to rent a room, a single room with a bathroom?
