Extra 3.1: Let’s go back in time and meet again!

Jing Xun was suddenly awakened by a sharp knock on the door.

It sounded very urgent, so much so that the person who had just woken up was still a bit confused——Jing Xun seldom heard any knocking sound when he was sleeping, let alone being woken up.

In the past, his body was too weak, and no one was willing to disturb him.

After living with sir, it became even more…

That’s right.

What about sir? …

Did he sleep with Shen Yijin last night? ?

The hazy drowsiness disappeared in an instant. Jing Xun finally realized what made him feel extremely dazed and uncomfortable…

At this time, he didn’t sleep in his bed with Shen Yijin!

The mattress under his body was a little soft, the kind of softness that Jing Xun was used to sleeping on.

All he could see was pure white, pure white quilt, pure white bed sheets… Looking around, it appeared to be a one-bedroom, one-bathroom hotel room.

Only the decoration style was a little different, more inclined toward the Western style. There were also text signs on the walls in some places, and none of them were Chinese characters.

But how is it possible?

He obviously slept in his own house last night!

Jing Xun’s memory could easily remind him of any words he said to anyone three days ago.

There was never a mistake.

He clearly remembered that last night until the moment before he fell asleep, he and Shen Yijin were both lying on the big bed at home.

It was their third year of marriage, and his brain was still distinctly storing every day memory for more than three years. His memory vividly reflected Shen Yijin’s handsome face, the heat of his body, and his warm breath when he kissed him…

They even said good night to each other before going to bed!

So what’s the situation now? ? ?

Jing Xun quickly got up from the bed and checked the room again.

Looking at the layout and interior items, this room should indeed be a standard hotel room, there was no mistake.

And this was a standard double room. Except for the side where Jing Xun slept, the other side of the big bed was empty, the sheets and pillows were very flat, it looked like no one had slept there all night…

So… sir? …

Just when Jing Xun was completely panicked, the violent knock on the door just now sounded again, and there was a loud voice coming from the door: “Jing Xun? Xun Xun! Junior Brother! Don’t sleep, It’s time for the competition, alas! The teacher is already waiting downstair!”

“What’s the matter, Xun Xun is never late. It’s already past our gathering time… Nothing happened to him right?”

Jing Xun: “…..”

After receiving a fatal blow, Jing Xun stood stunned in place for a moment, then walked over to open the door.

There were three women and two men standing outside the door, all of whom Jing Xun knew.

——They were all senior sisters and senior brothers who used to participate in the competition with Jing Xun.

When he first heard their voices, Jing Xun suddenly realized something and had a guess in his heart.

The moment he saw them, this guess was suddenly confirmed…

He was eighty percent sure that he had returned to his original world.

There were fewer seniors who went out with him for the tournament, but there was only one tournament where these five people got together.

Jing Xun remembered that competition.

When he was seventeen years old, he participated in the international robot competition in country E….

…………

Why did he come back?

Maintaining the posture of holding the doorknob in his hand, as if the blood was flowing backwards all over the body, Jing Xun’s entire body was frozen.

He was dumbfounded and stunned in place, as if he had completely broken down.

When he closed his eyes and opened his eyes again to find himself on a rooftop and became the tragic protagonist in the book, he didn’t particularly feel anything.

Looking back later, his mood was even quite calm at the time.

But now Jing Xun didn’t feel well.

Very unwell.

If he had to describe it, it felt like the sky was falling, he only felt giddy and light-headedness.

The black and white stactics like those that would appear on an old-fashioned TV screen floated in front of his eyes, and for the first time, Jing Xing felt terrified.

…if if, if he returned to the real world…

Then sir…

The blood on his face quickly receded, and the moment the door was opened, the five people on the opposite side were frightened by Jing Xun’s expression.

“… Junior? Are you not feeling well? What’s the matter? Do you need us to find a doctor?”

“Are you sick? If you are, don’t go to draw lots, and take a rest. Fortunately, Xford University isn’t too far away from here. You can go again in the afternoon……”

Jing Xun shook his head, saying that he was fine.

He apologized to several seniors, and said, “I’ll just rest for a while. You guys can go first and wait for me.”

The act of holding the doorknob tightly made his protruding knuckles turn white.

Jing Xun calmed himself, recalled the process of this competition, and also remembered the arrangement made by the teacher who led the team——breakfast at 7:30, leaving for the university at 8:00, and drawing lots at 9:00. Then there was a day trip to the campus of Xford University, and the competition officially started the next day…

He remembered, he remembered it all.

After the warm greetings from the seniors, he reluctantly refused their proposal to leave someone here to accompany him, then Jing Xun closed the door again.

For a moment, he needed something to support himself, but a moment later his body exploded with power.

Jing Xun rushed directly into the bathroom and looked in the mirror.

The young man in the mirror looked a little immature. Black hair and black eyes, honest student hairstyle, almond shaped eyes and peach blossom face, natural upturned lips, and a tear mole at the bottom corner of the eye…

This was indeed him.

But it’s another him.

To be precise, this was more like the seventeen-year-old him in another time and space.

–Compared to his old self, he did not look the least bit different, except that his body was in good condition and free from illness.

Yes, in good condition.

From the moment he found himself transmigrated back, he felt that his body was in good health without any pain.

Even though it had been a long time, Jing Xun had not forgotten how he felt when he was seriously ill.

Judging from the fact that although the seniors were concerned about him, they were not particularly nervous. He should indeed be a healthy person in this world. In the past, if there was a slight change in his face, it would make everyone nervous and send him directly to the hospital.

But in addition to being in good health–Jing Xun glanced at the time just now–2017 was indeed the year when he was seventeen year old.

It was hard to tell from the seniors’ words, but what happened next seemed to be exactly the same as what he had experienced during that year…

The time and the event were the same, and the memory was his own memory.

But the body was different.

So did he come back or transmigrated again?

Most importantly,

Most importantly….sir….

Shen Yijin, where is he now? How is he?

If he woke up and couldn’t find him…

As if he was stabbed by something, Jing Xun suddenly didn’t dare to think about it.

Glancing at the black-haired, dark-eyed boy in the mirror, Jing Xun suddenly turned on the faucet and washed his face with cold water, telling himself to calm down.

Then Jing Xun quickly stepped out of the bathroom and grabbed his cell phone.

Next he turned on the TV in the room again.

A fluent British accent was leaking from the TV, which was playing a BBC documentary.

Jing Xun sat at the foot of the bed, quickly scanning his phone while tuning the TV.

Regardless of what’s going on, television and the Internet were channels that gave people quick access to information.

But as a matter of urgency, Jing Xun was very clear that he needed to quickly figure out only one thing, and that was whether he was really back in the original world or not.

It may be a delusion, but Jing Xun still had a glimmer of hope when he found out that he was in good health.

——Since his physical condition could be different from the original world, can it be a miracle?

He didn’t need anything else, just…

Shen Yijin? ? ?

Jing Xun’s eyes were fixed on the TV screen.

While searching and browsing the major web pages, he quickly flipped through various TV channels. When he was highly focused, Jing Xun did not ignore a familiar scene on the TV that flashed by…

Sports channel.

A replay of a shooting competition.

After quickly obtaining this information from the TV subtitles full of English, Jing Xun heard the commentator explaining the situation of the competition.

As he had wished, the screen began to replay the wonderful performances of the contestants in sequence, and then Jing Xun saw a tall figure in professional sportswear appear in the camera…

The man’s posture with the gun was steady, and his expression was cold.

Although doubtful, it was the face that Jing Xun was familiar with… Shen Yijin!

That’s right, according to the timeline in the book, in 2017, sir was still studying abroad and did not return to China yet.

The university where he studied for his doctorate happened to be… Xford University!

He had no idea when his posture had changed from sitting to standing. After realizing this, Jing Xun simply ran out of the hotel room!

“Ah Xun? How are you?”

Downstairs in the hotel, the senior sister who had just finished breakfast was still holding bread and water, and it looked like she was going to send it to him.

Just when he happened to meet her, Jing Xun said, “I’m fine, senior, let’s go to Xford.”

“Ah? What’s wrong?” Senior sister was visibly confused, she looked at Jing Xun who was only wearing a thin T-shirt: “Then you should go back and wear a coat…”

But at this time, where does Jing Xun have the energy to care about any outerwear!

E country had always been rainy.

On the bus to Xford, there was a dense layer of water mist outside the window.

Raindrops sparsely hit the windows, making crisp shattering sounds.

But when the bus drove all the way to the vicinity of the school and stopped on the street, the rain outside also stopped.

It was a little chilly.

Most people were still wearing long trench coats this season.

Jing Xun was not in the mood to notice whether it was cold or not. When he was on the bus just now, he tried to call Shen Yijin’s phone number, but both numbers didn’t exist.

He believed that the two worlds had merged or something along that line, but just as he gradually calmed down in the car, Jing Xun began to feel uneasy again.

He couldn’t help thinking that even if the two worlds merged, and his body had changed, then Shen Yijin was also the same Shen Yijin?

Even if he was still the same person, he had returned to the age of seventeen…

“Oh my god, this student, do you need a coat?” After getting out of the bus, one of the seniors who was in charge of receiving them was the first to speak in surprise.

The passers-by were all wrapped in tight coats or windbreakers, but Jing Xun was the only one wearing a thin white t-shirt.

Wearing only a single thin shirt this season was too conspicuous. His stature was already thin, and it was even more evident among the tall Cacuasin, giving off a sense of fragility.

When he got off the bus, everyone passing by would consciously glance at him.

And then they resist a second look.

In particular, Jing Xun’s complexion was brighter than snow, like the most exquisite and best-colored ceramic vessels, his black hair and black eyes made him appear more delicate, and his red lips and white cheeks form the brightest color contrast, like a mysterious oriental painting, when suddenly appeared in the crowd, he naturally stood out.

The foreign senior who asked him even took off his jacket and handed it to Jing Xun.

Jing Xun didn’t answer, the other party also wore only a half-sleeve t-shirt inside.

In fact, when he was on the bus just now, someone wanted to lend him his coat, but Jing Xun insisted on refusing.

But the foreign senior directly put the clothes on his shoulders, insisted that he put it on, and said in broken Chinese: “Wear it, I’m stronger than you.” After speaking, the senior also showed his biceps.

“…..”

Jing Xun didn’t have time to refuse.

There was a sudden commotion on the road ahead—unknown what happened, lively applause and whistles sounded in front of a western style building in the distance, as if in celebration of something…

Jing Xun followed the sound to look over. He saw an overly tall figure surrounded by a small encirclement.

The man’s brows and eyes were very cold, when Jing Xun looked over, the man had already turned his head, leaving a feeling of extreme indifference.

When Jing Xun wanted to take a closer look, his line of sight was blocked by the other people in the circle——there was still a lot of people between him and the black-haired man, and those people were waving their arms frantically, so that people at the outer circle couldn’t see what’s going on at all…

Too late to think about anything, Jing Xun chased after him.

“Ah? Junior brother!”

As soon as he ran, others naturally chased after him to see what was going on.

But the distance just now was still too far away. By the time Jing Xun ran there, the crowd had gradually begun to disperse. Where is the black-haired man in the circle!

Jing Xun stayed where he was, looking around, but didn’t find that figure again. Fortunately, there were few people who stayed in place, talking about the scene just now in foreign language…

“Is that person just now Dr. Shen? The one from the Finance Faculty and just won the Shooting Championship?”

“Yes, it’s him!”

“I heard that he has always been cold, but his grades are excellent, and he is about to graduate from the doctorate program. It’s surprising that he still has time to play with guns.”

“Haha Dr. Shen is known for being cold. He didn’t even spare a glance when we surrounded him.”

The seniors who trotted all the way with Jing Xun didn’t know what happened, but they didn’t dare to ask because Xun Xun’s expression was really bad right now.

However, when hearing what the people around were talking about, the foreign senior who was in charge of receiving them also got excited and couldn’t resist telling them: “There is a very powerful person from your country.”

As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up and then said, “He doesn’t seem to like dealing with others. Too cold, and everyone in school is afraid of him.”

“Ah?” The other seniors were also interested, and they all asked who he was talking about, wondering who could be so famous.

Others were curious, but Jing Xun was basically sure that the person he saw just now was Shen Yijin.

So different from the other seniors, he asked directly, “Where can I find that Mr. Shen?”

Hearing this, everyone was shocked: “Xun Xun, why are you looking for him?”

The foreign senior even said: “…If you’re also his fan, I advise you not to approach him. You will definitely be disappointed! He treats everyone…how to describe it, very politely.”

Jing Xun shook his head, indicating that he was not a fan.

To be precise, he should be his partner.

“I just want to see him.” He sounded anxious.

Probably because Jing Xun’s expression was really serious and eager, the foreign senior didn’t ask any further questions, but just said, “All I know is that he’s from the Saïd Business School1Saïd Business School (Oxford Saïd or SBS) is the business school of the University of Oxford.…”

“Okay, thank you, senior.” Jing Xun thanked him, then took off the jacket that was draped over his shoulders and intended to hand it back.

But the other party stopped him first and said, “Maybe you should come with us to draw a lot first, I’ll take you there when we tour the campus…”

Jing Xun shook his head, indicating that he wasn’t going to wait.

It’s fine as long as a representative was sent over to draw a lot for the group, all today’s schedules were related to the upcoming competition, his absence wouldn’t disrupt anything.

And… Jing Xun looked up, is the building in the distance the Saïd Business School? Just now, sir suddenly disappeared, presumably he must have gone to that building.

It was so close, and he let it slip just like that…

“Xun? Oh my god, it’s really you!”

Just when Jing Xun was explaining to his concerned seniors that he had to leave now, in the crowd that had not dispersed, someone came through while shouting Jing Xun’s name in exaggerated English.

Jing Xun looked over with the others and recognized that it was the members of another national team, Saudi Arabia, that also came for the competition.

The person in the lead had a bronze skin color and was wearing a beige suit, which made his skin look darker.

He appeared to be only twenty years old, with a wide forehead, big eyes, and a high nose bridge, the appearance of a typical young man in the Middle East. Ignoring the color of his skin and the carefully trimmed beard on his face, at first glance, he quite met the standard of a small fresh meat.

It was just that his taste needed improvement… At least five of the ten fingers have gemstone rings… Jing Xun recognized that this is the Saudi tyrant who lost a bet with him and gave him a world famous watch.

According to the timeline, it was yesterday. Yesterday, they landed at the airport almost together with the Saudi team, and when they were waiting for the school to send a car to pick them up, the Saudi tyrant had a conflict with a teammate of the Jing Xun team.

In order to vent his anger for his teammate, Jing Xun made a bet with the little local tyrant. Later, he easily won, and the other party insisted on paying him a valuable item…

At this time, the local tyrant was a little surprised when he saw Jing Xun, but more than that, he was amazed.

He said, “Nice to see you here, Xun, you look better than yesterday.”

Jing Xun: “…..”

Jing Xun also wanted to speak up, but the other party had already said to him: “What a coincidence, you know? I was looking for you! I lost the bet yesterday. Why didn’t you take the watch?”

After saying that, he raised his wrist, took off the watch he was wearing and handed it to Jing Xun.

Jing Xun did not answer nor refuse.

He looked at the other party and completely froze.

Of course, what surprised him was that he met this young local tyrant here, because it seemed that the events that had happened in this world were actually consistent with the events he remembered…

Even the details were exactly the same.

In the original world, at first he also rejected the watch that the local tyrant gave him.

Later, during the competition, he met the other party again. After that, he also ran over to pester him like this, insisting that he take it.

To further extend the summary, even if he seemed to be in good health, nothing else had changed.

The seniors still cared and loved him, the competition that he should participate in, the people he should meet……

What about Shen Yijin… Is the Shen Yijin of this world really him?

The more the events that happened now were highly identical to the world he once experienced, the more panicked Jing Xun became.

It seemed that the idea of ​​comforting himself that Shen Yijin had also transmigrated with him just lost its effectiveness.

In fact, this morning, his heart seemed to be swinging like a pendulum.

For a moment, he thought that sir must have come to this world just like him, but a moment later, he couldn’t stop thinking… Why would God be partial to him and arrange for Shen Yijin to cross over with him as well?

The worry caused by this kind of anxiety officially erupted at this moment. Jing Xun couldn’t wait to find that Dr. Shen, and determined whether he was his own…

“Sorry, I’m now…”

When he came back to his senses, Jing Xun found that his arm had been grabbed by the Saudi tyrant.

Probably seeing that he didn’t respond, the other party simply wanted to shove the watch directly into his hand.

Jing Xun consciously twisted his grasped arm, trying to break free.

But this little local tyrant was much taller than him. Years of exercise had allowed him to build up his muscles. In addition, the other party had a sturdy aura that belonged to the Middle East…

Jing Xun struggled, but couldn’t free his hand.

He could also clearly feel that the moment he tried to pull out his arm, the force in the other party’s hand got a little heavier.

He couldn’t tell whether it was intentional or not. He was clearly in a hurry, but he was caught… This made him feel even worse.

Jing Xun frowned and spoke again, his voice became cold: “I’m in a hurry, please let…”

Before the word “go” could be uttered, a big hand suddenly rested on his shoulder. A bitterly cold breath hit Jing Xun’s back.

At the same time, the little local tyrant who was grabbing his hand, also got his wrist squeezed at an extremely fast speed. The force was so strong that the little tyrant’s face changed color.

It wasn’t only Jing Xun. It seemed that everyone around also felt this inexplicable chill.

Before Jing Xun could turn his head, and before others could react, a deep voice that he was very familiar with rang out beside him: “Let go.”

The two simple words sounded very cold.

But it was this voice that directly stunned the little local tyrant on the opposite side, and also caused a heated discussion to break out around them.

“…that’s right, this is…”

“It’s Shen! I clearly saw him walking towards the faculty, why did he come back!”

“Who is that? I mean, the boy standing next to Dr. Shen…he looks so good!! He is exactly like the most beautiful oriental young man I imagined!!!”

The crowd, which hadn’t dispersed, regrouped, and the murmurs and exciting screams rose again in a flurry.

The surroundings became very lively, but Jing Xun couldn’t feel it

His body unconsciously became stiff.

Due to the pressure on the wrist, the little local tyrant finally had to let go of Jing Xun.

But at the same time, Jing Xun also felt that the hand that had just appeared beside him and took his shoulder was also removed.

The sense of alienation from the sudden departure made Jing Xun feel stunned, and the scale in his heart swayed wildly again.

His arm fell naturally because it lost its restraint.

Jing Xun knew that the person standing beside him was probably Shen Yijin.

But whether this Shen Yijin was his Shen Yijin…

Through a thin layer of air, Jing Xun could still feel the chilling aura emanating from the person beside him.

…The other party was still standing beside him motionless.

He didn’t move.

It felt like the man was sizing him up too.

This tiny detail seemed to give him a bit of strength, and Jing Xun knew that he had to face what he had to face.

In the end, he didn’t stay stunned for a too long. He probably evaded him for only three seconds during the whole process. In the end, he mustered up his courage and looked to the side.

Due to the standing position between the two, Jing Xun needed to turn his head to the side and raise his eyes a little to see the other’s face clearly.

He twisted his slender neck stiffly and mechanically like a robot in disrepair. The moment he raised his eyes to look over, he immediately bumped into the dark and scrutinized eyes of the other party.

Apparently, until he looked over, the man beside him had been looking down at him.

After looking at each other, Jing Xun knew that both him and this person he was looking at had already determined each other’s identities.

Like a ray of sunshine breaking through the oppressive fog.

Jing Xun’s heart instantly fell back to his stomach.

But all of a sudden, more emotions flooded in, and began to overflow.

“Sir…” The voice was permeated with excitement, as well as bitter repression and aggravation.

Jing Xun couldn’t control himself any longer.

In response to him, Shen Yijin raised his hand and embraced him.

“Finally, I’ve found you.”

His voice was hoarse and low, but his chest was agitating violently.

The arms that embraced Jing Xun used a lot of force, and the two were pressed tightly together. Jing Xun could almost feel the powerful thumping coming from his heart.

Shen Yijin whispered to him, “Xiao Xun.”

“…Shen? This is really Shen?? Tell me who’s person he is holding???”

“Xun Xun? Do you really know this Shen something…?”

“???”

The sound of heated discussions around them has become a background noise.

It was as if the world was divided only by them and beyond them.

Then, in front of everyone’s eyes, Shen Yijin took off his coat and put it over Jing Xun’s body.
