After leaving the hospital, Ji Ning was pulled into a taxi by Huo Wuling, Huo Wuling said the name of a restaurant, and the driver drove them to the designated place, but waited until they got off the bus After that, they didn't see the restaurant.

    "What's going on?" Ji Ning looked around, "Did the driver find the wrong place?"

    "Maybe he just stopped near the restaurant." Huo Wuling said, "Let's look."

    But they turned around and couldn't find the restaurant. Ji Ning opened the navigation to compare it with the map, but was surprised to find that the buildings and buildings here were completely the same as the navigation map. No, there seems to be a big problem with the map.

    "The truth is," Huo Wuling laughed, "We seem to be lost."

    Are they lost? Can this also get lost?

    Jining showed an unacceptable expression and looked at the surrounding environment.

    From the beginning, he felt that this place was a bit strange. The surrounding buildings did not match each other, full of incongruity. On the left side of the road was a modern office building, but next to it was a An outdated shop, a narrow alley stretches away, and at the end of the alley is a large lake.

    "Ask someone..."

    He said not quite confidently, and walked towards a passing person, but when he saw him approaching, the person immediately waved his hand and avoided him far away, and not only This person, all the passers-by that Ji Ning met next had this reaction.

    "This place is too strange." Ji Ning turned to look at Huo Wuling, a little scared, "What should we do?"

    The navigation was wrong, passersby ignored him, so he had to go to the store and ask, if it still didn't work, he could only want to call the police, but two adult men, lost their way but still had to ask the police for help , If possible, Ji Ning really didn't want to use this last resort.

    Compared with him, Huo Wuling still looked calm, as if he didn't notice the abnormality around him at all, smiled and said, "Just wander around, you can always go out."

    "Why are you so calm..." Ji Ning whispered.

    "Because it doesn't matter." Huo Wuling smiled, "It would be great to be with you."

    Huo Wuling has always been very good at talking, so Ji Ning felt very at ease, and even the uneasiness in her heart was also appeased. The shop was either closed or no one was there. The table in the restaurant was filled with steaming food, but it was quiet, not even a clerk.

    This scene made Ji Ning immediately think of many horror stories, and she couldn't help but feel horrified. Even if she felt hungry because she didn't eat lunch, she didn't dare to touch the food, so she took Huo Wuling and slipped out. .

     

    Jining's scalp was numb, and she didn't care about her face anymore, so she said to Huo Wuling, "No, I think we have to call the police, otherwise I always feel that we can't get out of here."

    "Is it useful?" Huo Wuling still said lightly, "If I accompany you, would you be afraid?"

    "I'm afraid." Ji Ning said decisively.

    "Don't be afraid." Huo Wuling smiled again, reached out and rubbed his hair, his voice was much lighter, "This is not a supernatural phenomenon, it is just because you are about to wake up, it will become more and more more abnormal."

    "What?" Ji Ning didn't understand the second half of Huo Wuling's words.

    "It's nothing." Huo Wuling said, "Since you want to leave, then—" At this moment, his voice suddenly stopped, and his eyes stared straight behind Ji Ning , did not look away for a long time.

    Jining turned her head uneasily, followed Huo Wuling's line of sight, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

    He thought Huo Wuling saw something terrible, but in fact he was just looking at a grocery store, did he need to put on such a strange expression?

    From Ji Ning's point of view, there is nothing strange about this grocery store, on the contrary, it is beautifully decorated, with brightly colored signs, wind chimes hanging on the open door, and the large windows are spotless , through the glass, you can see that the inside is full, and there are soothing and beautiful songs.

    Huo Wuling stared at the grocery store for a while, then suddenly walked straight in.

    Jining followed behind him and walked into the store. Although there were a lot of things, it didn't look cluttered. The weather was bad outside. On the record player, the record on it keeps spinning, which is the source of the singing.

    …looks familiar?

    He suddenly had such a feeling, but in the end it came down to a sense of sight.

    Like other stores, there is no one here, Ji Ning still didn't understand why Huo Wuling wanted to come here, she saw Huo Wuling go straight behind the counter and went to In the door behind the stage, open the refrigerator inside and rummage at random.

    "How can you touch other people's things?"

    Jining was startled, and immediately wanted to stop Huo Wuling, otherwise they would be treated as thieves.

    "It's okay, this is my home."

    Huo Wuling rummaged through the refrigerator and found some vegetables and a few eggs, looked back at Ji Ning with a smile, "Are you hungry? I'll cook for you."

    "This is your home?" Ji Ning was amazed, the first reaction was that the restaurant Huo Wuling said was his home, and he deliberately wanted to bring him here, and even played a prank, Made him think they were lost.

    But it doesn't make sense why people outside are so weird, he doesn't think Huo Wuling can make those people cooperate with him, and wants to invite him over, it's enough to say it directly, why bother big circle.

    But he was relieved. Since this is Huo Wuling's house, there is no problem. If it doesn't work, they will stay here for the night. Anyway, there will be no class tomorrow morning.

    "Well, it's my house."

    Huo Wuling responded with a smile, without saying anything else, took out the apron from the cabinet and put it on, Ji Ning looked fresh, put her doubts behind her, and asked jokingly: "You still cook?"

    "I live by myself, of course I have to learn how to cook." Huo Wuling said, breaking the egg into a bowl.

    "Just you?" Ji Ning was startled, "Are you saying that you live alone at home? Where is your family?"

    "My parents died when I was born, my adoptive father took me in, but then he died, and I have been alone since then." Huo Wuling said.

    "I'm sorry..." Hearing Huo Wuling's words, Ji Ning felt both distressed and guilty. He felt as if he had touched a secret that should not have been touched. This must be the wound in Huo Wuling's heart. Pain, just like Jiang Che treats himself.

    "It doesn't matter, it's been many years, I don't care." Huo Wuling laughed, "I'll cook egg noodles for you, I remember you should like it very much?"

    While Huo Wuling was cooking, the gloomy day finally began to rain.

    Jining gave Huo Wuling a simple fight, and thought to himself, fortunately they have already arrived home, otherwise they will be exposed to the rain, he would rather be exposed to the rain outside than Into those weird storefronts.

    "It's raining again."

    Huo Wuling glanced out the window, said casually, took the boiled egg noodles and stir-fried vegetables out of the kitchen and put them on the table outside.

    Jining closed the open door by the way, and sat down with Huo Wuling to eat noodles. The unnoticeable stain on the sofa said: "Do you know what mark this is?"

    "I don't know..." Ji Ning ate the noodles and said vaguely, Huo Wuling's cooking skills are really very good, he has eaten two bowls.

    "It's the blood of my adoptive father." Huo Wuling said, "Our store was robbed, and he was killed by the robber on this sofa."

    "Cough, cough, cough..."

    Jining was choked immediately, coughed violently, and stood up from the sofa, her face red and white, half choked, half scared.

    He didn't know what to say, because when he said these words, Huo Wuling's expression was still calm, he seemed to be used to it, even smiled and said: "So I just said... getting old is a happy thing."

    Jining wiped her mouth and sat on the chair beside her, watching Huo Wuling's calmness, his mood was extremely complicated, but more of it was distressed. I haven't heard Huo Wuling mention his own experience, but I didn't expect his life experience to be so miserable. Before that, Huo Wuling may have lived alone in this shop for many years.

    "I told you before, but you certainly don't remember now."

    Huo Wuling smiled, as if talking to herself, just as Ji Ning wanted to refute, she must have never heard Huo Wuling mention it before, so she heard Huo Wuling continue.

    "From childhood to adulthood, none of the people I am close to can live to the end of their lives."

    "I can't see them getting old, and I can't see myself getting old."

    "It's like you can't see what Jiang Che will look like decades later because he's dead."

    "It's the same for me, Ningning. It's a pity I can't keep watching you grow old."

    In an instant, Ji Ning's heart seemed to be gripped by an invisible hand. He didn't think it was Huo Wuling who was cursing him, because he thought of when he was in the hospital before, Huo Wuling smiled and told him that he could be regarded as dying.

    What happened to Huo Wuling...

    "Why," he resisted the huge fear and anxiety in his heart, reluctantly joking, and testing Huo Wuling, "Do you still want to break up with me?"

    "How come, I like you the most, and I only like you." Huo Wuling smiled, "But there is really no way."

    "Wow..."

    Huo Wuling lowered her eyes, the sound of rain outside the window continued, Ji Ning walked over in a panic and held Huo Wuling's hand, only to find that his hand was very cold.

    "Don't talk nonsense all day long, don't you just want to see me grow old? I can show you now."

    Ning Ji was so flustered that she immediately downloaded an app on the Internet. It was a beauty camera. He watched the girls in the class use it. There were many filters in it.

    After downloading, he opened the program, found a filter named "Seventy Years Old", brought his mobile phone to Huo Wuling, and let them both be included in the selfie mode under the lens.

    Suddenly, two old faces appeared on the screen, their faces were wrinkled and their hair became gray and mottled, just like Huo Wuling and Ji Ning in their seventies.

    "This is how we grow old."

    Jining watched Huo Wuling seriously.

    "You will be fine, and I will be fine, we will all live to seventy years old, and will live longer, eighty-nine is not a problem."

    "We will see each other often. If you can't walk, I will go to your house to find you. If I can't walk, you will come to me."

    "If we can't walk, let someone push our wheelchair to meet."

    “…”

    Huo Wuling didn't speak, but his eyes slowly turned red.

    He stared at the old faces of himself and Ji Ning in the camera for a long time, his shoulders trembled slightly, suddenly he raised his hands to cover his eyes, lowered his head, tears slowly flowing down his face flow down.

   

     

    "Jingle...Jingle..."

    Suddenly the store door was pushed open, and the hanging wind chimes made a jingling sound.

    At this moment, some images suddenly appeared in Ji Ning's mind.

    It was also a rainy day, it was a cold rainy night, the two of them stayed here, he felt cold, Huo Wuling closed the store door, he asked Huo Wuling why the store was always open The door, Huo Wuling looked at the dark street and answered in a low voice—

    Because I am waiting for another guest.

    I hope to see something I want to see, but maybe...I can never wait.

    “Jingle, jingle…”

     

    They looked serene, with a slight smile, their eyebrows were the old Huo Wuling and Ji Ning in the shot just now, they were seventy years old.

    This may have been a terrifying scene, but at this moment, Ji Ning had no fear in her heart, instead, she was inexplicably sad. Looking at Huo Wuling, she blurted out her debut.

    "Are they the guests you're waiting for?"

    "Yes..."

    Huo Wuling looked at the two figures, with tears on her face, but the corners of her lips were slightly raised.

    "That's all my fantasies."

    "Even as we age, we can rely on each other to go where we want to go and do what we want to do."

    "We will grow old together and return to our common home, never apart, never alone."

    "This is my wish, and it is also his wish..."

    "I want to accompany you to grow old, Ningning, but it's impossible, and it will never happen."

     

      But this time it was Huo Wuling and the others who knew the truth.

    "What the **** is going on? Why did the world suddenly collapse? What will happen to us?"

    Jining grabbed Huo Wuling's hand and asked anxiously, Huo Wuling laughed and said.

    "You will wake up soon, and this false world will collapse with you."

    "When you wake up, you will return to your original world, you must be very happy?"

    "Time to say goodbye."

    "Where will you go after this world collapses?"

    Jining was extremely flustered, he heard Huo Wuling's words with a decisive meaning, it sounded like he was about to die.

    What about those before? Where are they, where are they, like Huo Wuling, might they just disappear?

    The whole world was shaking, and the items of the grocery store fell from the display racks and shattered one after another. Smiling, he touched Ji Ning's face.

    "Goodbye, Ningning."

    The illusory sky spread cracks, revealing the darkness of the outside world, Ji Ning shook her head palely, no... no, no, no, how can it end like this?

    The future...the future! are you there? !

    He was calling the system that belonged to him in his heart: what happened to this world? What can I do to stop its destruction?

    [The destruction of the world cannot be stopped, but you can save him, teacher. 】

    A voice appeared in Ji Ning's consciousness, but it was not the future, but Lai's voice.

    【If you want to save him, you must kiss him, this is your last chance. 】

    After saying these words, no other voice came. At this time, Ji Ning couldn't care about why Lai was talking to him, he could only believe it, and rushed desperately In Huo Wuling's arms, he made a gesture to kiss him.

    "No, Ningning."

    Huo Wuling noticed what he was going to do first, smiled and pushed Ji Ning's shoulder away, not letting him get close to him: "You can't kiss me now...Ningning?"

    He suddenly showed a look of confusion, because he saw tears welling in Ji Ning's eyes.

    "You don't want to die..." Ji Ning choked, her voice almost broken, "I don't want you to die..."

    "Ningning..."

    Huo Wuling sighed softly, took him into his arms, stroked his hair, and said: "I don't want to be Jiang Che, I am myself, not to mention that even if I become him, It's useless, he's already dead, and he can't accompany you to grow old, why should I—"

    At this moment, he was suddenly pushed from behind, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes, and Ji Ning also took the opportunity to raise his head and kiss Huo Wuling's face up. lips.

    "Finally caught up."

    Standing behind Huo Wuling, Lai said with a smile and withdrew his hand.

    Huo Wuling separated from Ji Ning, raised his hand to caress his lips, looked back at Lai, squinted and said, "Even so, I won't merge with you, it's a big deal. self-destruction."

    "Are you really going to give up?" Lai raised the corners of his lips, "How do you know that Jiang Che can't be resurrected? Can't accompany the teacher until he grows old?"

    "Try it, and if it doesn't work, it won't be too late for you to self-destruct."

    He showed a strange smile, watched Huo Wuling's figure fade, then moved his gaze to Ji Ning's body, reached out to hold Ji Ning's hand, and dropped it on the back of his hand A kiss.

     "Teacher, the last kiss is my kiss to you."

    “click-”

    The world was completely shattered, and the terminal controlled by Lai also turned into powder, and a new virtual world could no longer be simulated.

    Jining opened his eyes in the darkness of consciousness, sat up slowly, and saw figures surrounding him, all the "protagonists", Huo Wuling and Lai was among them, and the person standing in the middle was—

    “…Jiang Che?”

    He suddenly called out the name that had accompanied him for many years, his eyes full of disbelief.

    Sure enough, he was right in that false world, it was really Jiang Che, it was really him!

    Future walked in front of him, half-kneeled, her handsome face with no expression and a strong inhuman feeling showed a faint smile for the first time, took his hand, and said.

    "Maybe you can also call me 'Future'."

    "Congratulations, Ji Ning, your surgery is over, and your mission is over. You are about to return to the real world."

    Wait a minute, he's the future? Is the system the future? But why does he have the same face as Jiang Che? And what do you mean by surgery?

    Too many questions were still lingering in Ji Ning's heart. For a while, he didn't think about what he should ask first, but before he could open his mouth, the figure of the future disappeared in an instant. Made a spot of light.

    Jining stretched out her hand subconsciously, and the next moment, the others also turned into light spots, lighting up the darkness.

    Countless light spots surrounded Ji Ning and merged into his body, allowing him to see many memories.

    He saw the memory of the future. He was a medical system transformed from Jiang Che's thinking after Jiang Che died. During the treatment process, the future thinking separated and turned into his The protagonists encountered.

    The future is consistent with Jiang Che's appearance, and what he represents is Jiang Che's identity.

    Gu Chen represents Jiang Che's soul. Among all people, his character is the most similar to Jiang Che.

    Ark represents Jiang Che's first love. The person he likes is Ji Ning. At a very young age, the bud of this relationship has already begun.

    Herinos represents Jiang Che, who just realized that he likes Ji Ning. He is Jiang Che's inner conflict and struggle, but he also yearns for Ji Ning's hope of falling in love with him.

    Ying Qianqiu represents the best time of Ji Ning and Jiang Che when they were young, and Jiang Che's most passionate love for Ji Ning.

    Ozel represented taboos. As Jiang Che grew older, he had many concerns in his heart, but his heart for Ji Ning never changed.

     Zhou Rin represented the contradiction between Jiang Che's forbearance and love amid such concerns.

    Yun Yuan is Jiang Che's unwillingness and obsession.

    Lai is Jiang Che's desire.

    Qin Ruwang symbolizes the company of Jiang Che and Ji Ning for more than ten years.

    Huo Wuling is the infinite regret after Jiang Che's car accident, and Jiang Che's desire to accompany Ji Ning to old age.

    And from the beginning to the end, Jiang Che hoped that everything would be fine for Ji Ning, and that was the part that Fu Qinghan represented.

    When they gathered together, they were Jiang Che, the complete Jiang Che, and Jiang Che's love for Ji Ning.

    The infinite emotions were surging and turbulent, like a vast and boundless violent ocean, but eventually turned into the softest spring water, gently soaking Ji Ning.

    "They" loved him.

    He loves him.

    Jiang Che loves Ji Ning.

    …

    Jining opened her eyes.

    The surgery was successfully completed.

    …

    In the process of rehabilitating in the hospital, Ji Ning repeatedly requested the control center of the "Future" system to have a dialogue with Jiang Che, who became the center of the "Future" system, but was declined every time. As a rule, patients cannot have private contact with the system to avoid irreversible effects on the system.

    Jining was very sad, and his emotions alternated between excitement and loss every day. He was happy that Jiang Che hadn't completely died, but he was extremely tormented, because even if Jiang Che hadn't died , he couldn't have a conversation.

    In the past twenty years, he never knew that Jiang Che had such deep feelings for him.

    And they…

    He won't be able to see them again...

    On the day she was discharged from the hospital, Ji Ning and Jiang Che's family were all present to welcome Ji Ning. Jiang Che's family was also very happy about Ji Ning's escape from the accident. For so many years, they had long regarded Ji Ning as another child of their own.

    Seeing that she could recover and be discharged from the hospital, Ji Ning should have been happy, but thinking of Jiang Che who was still in the hospital, Ji Ning didn't want to leave, he even wanted to create another accident , damage his brain so that he can see Jiang Che again.

    Ke Ning knew that this idea was unrealistic, and he couldn't bet his own life.

    When he thought he was on a mission, his biggest obsession was to return to his family, because he knew how heart-wrenching it was to lose the person closest to him, he couldn't let it go His family was also hurt in the same way.

     "By the way, we also received a 'surprise gift' recently. As a celebration of your recovery and discharge, we have put this 'gift' in your room."

    On the way back, Ji Ning's parents were talking to Ji Ning, his sister, brother-in-law and Jiang Che's parents were all smiles too, it could be seen that they were all special He was very happy, and seemed to be looking forward to Ji Ning's reaction when he saw the gift.

    Jining's little niece couldn't help but said, "Uncle, let me tell you, the gift is Jiang—"

    "Shh, don't say it, didn't you make an appointment with your mother, and ask your uncle to 'open the gift' in person."

    Sister quickly covered her daughter's mouth, the little girl blinked, nodded obediently, and quickly raised her little hand to cover her mouth.

    The group returned to Ji Ning's villa. As soon as they entered the living room, everyone urged Ji Ning to hurry into his room to see what surprises were waiting for him.

    Being so urged by the two family members, Ji Ning had a bit of a bad idea instead. First, he drank a glass of water and washed an apple, nibbling on the apple while strolling around Going upstairs, if it wasn't for his sister staring at him, he could even hold on for a few more minutes.

    "Don't deliberately hang our appetites." My sister smiled and nodded his forehead, "Otherwise, you must be the one who regrets it."

    "Really?" Ji Ning was noncommittal, and went upstairs with the apple, pretending not to care, "Then I'll go take a look, what if I'm not satisfied with the gift?"

    "You can't be dissatisfied."

    On this point, everyone's tone was extremely determined, making Ji Ning puzzled but at the same time, he couldn't help but really have extremely high expectations, and was extremely curious about what they had prepared for him what.

    But he can't be too excited. According to the family's habit, maybe he even installed a hidden camera in his bedroom, just to capture his gaffe when he saw the gift...

    Jining bit the apple and opened the door with a pretense of indifference. However, when he saw the "gift" in the bedroom, the figure sitting quietly on his bed suddenly lost his temper. The apple in his hand fell with a thud and rolled several times on the ground.

    "Jiang..."

    For several seconds, Ji Ning couldn't even find his own voice, his brain was dizzy, his eyes instantly became sore and swollen, and tears blurred his vision.

    Is it true?

    Is it really not his hallucination?

    The person who appeared in front of him was really... Jiang Che...

    "Are you satisfied with this surprise?"

    The young man in the room slowly got up, with a smile in his eyes, he stretched out his long legs, took a few steps, and came to Ji Ning.

    Because of the excitement and unbelievable ecstasy, Ji Ning's face turned red, her whole body was shaking, the handsome man smiled and held up his hot face, gently wiped him The tears that came out, and then suddenly hugged the person into his arms, his arms were extremely tight, as if he wanted to integrate him into his own blood.

    "Finally see you again, Ji Ning."

    "I won't leave you again this time."

    "We will grow old together."
