Chapter 404 Awakening of the Maiden Hero & Cannon Fodder NPC 16

When the will to play disappears from this world.

The whole world seemed to have turned into countless stacked codes. Those codes kept dissipating and collapsing, and the world seemed to be about to disappear.

However, at the moment of collapse, a cold, white force quietly attached itself to this world.

It was like a pair of invisible hands, gently lifting up the broken fragments and piecing them back together. The world gradually returned to its original appearance, as if nothing had happened.

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

"Doctor Wen, you are on duty today." The nurse looked at Wenrou sitting in the examination room and greeted her with a smile.

Wenrou raised her head, showed a gentle smile, and nodded: "Yes, it's my turn today."

She continued to organize the day's medical records with her head down, and the pen in her hand lightly moved across the paper, recording the condition of each patient.

The light in the emergency room was soft and warm, shining on her focused profile, making her look exceptionally peaceful.

Just then, the door of the emergency room was pushed open.

A tall man walked in. There was a shallow wound on his forehead. The blood had dried, but it still looked somewhat shocking.

"Doctor, can you help me with this?" His voice was low and magnetic, with a hint of imperceptible fatigue.

Wenrou raised her head and her eyes met his. At that moment, her heart seemed to skip a beat.

The man before her had a sharp face and a deep, calm gaze, as if he could see through everything. She quickly regained her composure, stood up, and motioned for him to sit down.

"Please sit down, I will help you treat your wound." Her voice was gentle and calm, as if it could soothe all the anxiety.

Li Chen sat on the examination chair, his eyes unconsciously falling on Wenrou's face.

Her movements were gentle and professional, her fingertips occasionally touching his skin, bringing a slight cool touch. Her eyes were focused and serious, as if the whole world was only concerned with the work at hand.

"The wound is not deep and the bleeding has stopped. Just disinfect it and bandage it." Wenrou explained softly while treating the wound.

Li Chen nodded slightly, but his eyes never left her face.

Her gentleness and professionalism made him feel inexplicably at ease, and even an inexplicable excitement.

"Dr. Wen, thank you." Li Chen's eyes swept across the name tag on Wenrou's chest, and then he whispered, with a hint of imperceptible tenderness in his voice.

Wenrou raised her head, met his gaze, and smiled slightly: "You're welcome, it's what I should do."

After treating the wound, Li Chen stood up, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Doctor Wen, could you please leave your contact information? If I have any questions, I may need to consult you."

Wenrou was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, this is my number." She took out a piece of notepaper, wrote down her phone number and handed it to him.

Li Chen took the note, his eyes lingered on it for a few seconds, then he put it in his pocket and said with a smile, "Thank you. I'll be leaving now."

"Recover and don't let the wound get wet." Wenrou warned softly.

Li Chen nodded and turned to leave the emergency room. The moment he walked out of the hospital gate, he couldn't help but look back, and the inexplicable throbbing in his heart became stronger.

=================================================================== ==========================

A few days later, Wenrou received a message from Li Chen.

He asked about the medication for the wound, his tone polite but distant. Wenrou replied a few words, but the conversation didn't go any deeper.

A week later, Li Chen sent another message. This time, he explained that he was having insomnia and wanted to ask her for some advice on health management. She patiently and tenderly answered his questions, and their communication gradually increased.

One weekend, Li Chen saw that the time was right and asked her to go for a walk in a nearby park.

Wenrou hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the lake, creating ripples. A gentle breeze blew by, bringing a touch of coolness. The two walked side by side on the lakeside path, the gravel under their feet making a slight rustling sound.

"Is your work going well recently?" Li Chen turned his head and looked at Wenrou in a gentle tone.

Wenrou nodded and smiled, "Well, it's going well. How about you? How's the project going?"

Li Chen smiled, a look of relief in his eyes: "It's finally over, so I have time to ask you out today."

Wenrou chuckled softly, her eyes falling on the lake: "That's great, you should have a good rest."

Li Chen stopped and turned to face her, his eyes deep and gentle. Wenrou looked up at him with some doubt, and found that there seemed to be something hidden in his eyes.

"Wenrou," he said softly, his voice low and serious, "Actually, I asked you out today because I wanted to tell you something."

Wenrou's heartbeat quickened slightly, and she subconsciously tightened the bag strap in her hand: "What's the matter?"

Li Chen took a deep breath and looked directly at her: "Doctor Wen, are you willing to try dating me?"

Wenrou was stunned, her cheeks slightly flushed, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Li Chen continued, "I know these words may be a little sudden, but I don't want to miss it. If you don't mind, you can give me a chance and try to get along with me."

She looked at him gently, a touch of emotion and shyness flashing in her eyes. Her heartbeat quickened, her cheeks grew hotter, but her heart felt an indescribable warmth. She nodded gently, her voice soft but firm: "Okay."

Li Chen, favorability 100%

"Are you satisfied now?" The old voice sounded again, with a hint of ridicule and deep meaning.

"Yeah." The man's gaze fell gently on the woman, and his originally cold face melted instantly, like spring water after the ice and snow melted.

He responded softly, his voice low and soft, and then his figure gradually blurred and disappeared into the air.

"It will be there soon. It will be there soon." The man's voice floated from the void, with an indescribable sigh and expectation, as if he was waiting for some important moment.

The voice echoed in the air, carrying a hint of nostalgia and determination.

The old voice did not respond, and the surroundings returned to silence. Only a gentle breeze blew by, bringing with it a faint sigh.
