It was late afternoon, past the rush hour, and there weren't many pedestrians on the road. The two weren't hungry at the moment, so they decided to take a walk before going home.
Now that Shen Xi is a public figure, the two wisely wore masks and did not attract a crowd.
Chen Xi: "Qiqi, after this press conference, we might need to bring bodyguards when we go to public places..."
Yunqi: "Is someone trying to harm you?! Then we won't go there anymore, anyway, I don't like going to those places..."
Chen Xi: "Qiqi, there might be danger around me... Do you regret it?"
Yunqi: "How could I regret it?! Ah Xi, I'm so happy to be by your side! I'm so proud of you for all you've achieved!! You're truly amazing!!"
Chen Xi held Yun Qi in his arms, feeling as if he were holding the whole world...
I feel incredibly satisfied at this moment...
Xiao Qi excitedly screamed in Yun Qi's mind: "Affection level 100! Full! Full! Shen Xi falls in love with 'the real self' mission: Complete!"
Yun Qi asked quietly, "What about the corruption value?"
Xiaoqi: "The corruption value is down to 5, Qiqi. I found out that the virus that destroyed the world, Chen Xi, wasn't destroyed. He's been keeping it all along..."
"……I see."
Chen Xi and Yun Qi walked hand in hand...
A man walking towards us in a hurry... He had his hands tucked into his trench coat, which looked rather strange.
As the man passed Chen Xi and Yun Qi, he looked up at them. Suddenly, he loosened his trench coat and stabbed Chen Xi in the heart with a knife hidden inside. Yun Qi didn't have time to think and pulled Chen Xi in front of her to shield him...
The sound of a sharp knife piercing Yun Qi's body.
Shen Xi's eyes were bloodshot with rage. He kicked the man, who fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
Blood gushed from the wound, and Chen Xi was at a loss: "Qiqi..."
A crowd gathered, and concerned citizens held the man down firmly! "Call 110!" "Call an ambulance!!"
Helpful citizen A: "Young man, don't be afraid, I've already called 120, the ambulance will be here soon!"
Concerned citizen B: "I've already called the police, they'll be here soon!!"
Chen Xi nodded tremblingly, "Thank...thank you."
Xiao Qi screamed in her mind again, sounding quite exasperated: "Qiqi! You've been cultivating the 'Heaven and Earth Technique' for so long, you could have easily pulled away from Chen Xi without getting hurt... why did you go up and take the blow?! Are you stupid?!"
Yunqi: "Stop making fun of me... I'm in so much pain..."
Xiao Qi: "Ah! Ah! Shen Xi's dark value has increased! 15...25...35...45...55..."
Yunqi grasped Chenxi's hand: "Don't be afraid... I'm alright... I..."
Yunqi tasted a metallic sweetness in her mouth and couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of blood...
The police and ambulance arrived, and Chen Xi went to the hospital in the ambulance...
With trembling hands, Chen Xi called Professor Su, trying his best to explain the situation clearly: "Professor, Qiqi was stabbed while saving me and lost a lot of blood. We're on our way to the city hospital now. Could you help me find someone to take a look?"
"Okay! Okay! Don't worry, I'll contact them right away!"
Professor Su also rushed to the hospital; Yunqi had already been wheeled into the operating room… The doctor issued a critical condition notice to Chen Xi…
Xiaoqi: "My 'darkening value' has risen to 88... and it's still rising!!"
Yunqi: "Xiaoqi, help me exchange for the [Great Rejuvenation Pill]." Fortunately, Yunqi has reached the Qi Refining stage in cultivating the "Heaven and Earth Technique" and can fully absorb the medicinal properties of the Great Rejuvenation Pill.
"Ding... Exchange successful!"
Yunqi swallowed it down where no one could see... Yunqi closed her eyes in relief...
The operating room light went out, and the doctor came out: "The wound has been treated, the surgery was a success. As long as the wound doesn't get infected, you'll be fine in the next couple of days."
"Thank you, doctor!"
"You're too kind."
Shen Xi had been watching Yun Qi from the ICU window. He had thought a lot. If Yun Qi didn't wake up, then there was no point in living. Let's just destroy everything together!
Xiaoqi: "My 'darkening' level has been hovering between 98 and 99, my heart can't take it... Qiqi, wake up! This is terrifying!!!"
Yunqi: "I wish I could too. Recovery takes time, and the effects of the Great Rejuvenation Pill also take time to work..."
VIP ward
Yunqi was also desperately trying to wake up. Feeling a bit more sensation in her body, Yunqi moved her fingers...
Shen Xi sensed it immediately: "Qiqi?...Are you awake?"
Yunqi opened her eyes: "I..."
"Don't speak, I've pressed the call button. Let's wait for the doctor to come and examine us before we talk."
After the doctor's examination, he said, "The recovery is very good, the wound is healing well, and you can be discharged after a few more days of rest."
After the doctor left, Chen Xi took a straw and fed Yun Qi water.
Yunqi looked at Chen Xi with concern and said, "You haven't had a proper rest these past few days. Go and get some sleep... I'm fine now..."
Shen Xi pressed Yun Qi's hand against his cheek: "Qi Qi, I'm so afraid you'll leave me like this... If you're gone, there's no point in me living..."
Yunqi touched the stubble on Chen Xi's face with heartache: "I also can't bear to leave you... I still want to grow old with you... I'm sorry... I made you worry..."
"Qiqi, promise me you'll protect yourself first from now on, okay?"
"I probably can't agree to that! If you die, there's no point in me living."
"..." Shen Xi leaned down and kissed Yun Qi's forehead: "Qi Qi, the greatest luck in my life is meeting you!"
Yunqi: "Stop talking about death. It's so good to be alive. We can do so many things together... This world has so many beautiful things. We can watch the sunrise, the sunset, and the ebb and flow of the tide together... When we're old, we can still reminisce together..."
