Chapter 17: Horror Livestream Room (17)

May 29, 2023 by Wyrd

 

In a dim laboratory, a slender young boy knelt on the ground with his back to the door, unaware of what he was doing.

He was deeply focused until he heard a voice behind him, causing him to react to the presence of someone.

The boy turned his head in a fluster upon hearing the sound, seemingly startled. His eyes were filled with mist, displaying a hint of uneasiness, like a frightened kitten.

“Dr. Wen!” Seeing the person behind him was the doctor, Ruan Qing’s eyes sparkled with delight as he turned around, revealing a glimmer of joy akin to countless stars.

However, in the next second, he seemed to recall something and hastily concealed his hands, shifting his gaze to the side.

His actions were conspicuous, revealing the fact that there was something here that more than meets the eye.

The doctor walked expressionlessly into the room, stood in front of the young boy, and with his hands in his pockets, he cast a glance at the black sphere inside the glass enclosure before looking at the boy. Speaking from a superior position, he asked, “What did you see?”

The doctor’s tone was so gentle that it sent shivers down one’s spine. But the eyes looking at the boy showed no ripples, as if he was looking at a dead person. However, the young boy seemed immersed in his own world, oblivious to it all.

The boy lifted his head in a slight daze, seemingly not understanding the doctor’s words.

The doctor glanced at the hands hidden by the boy and asked, “What do you have in your hands?”

Ruan Qing’s neck shrunk, and his delicate little face turned slightly red. He vigorously shook his head and shyly replied in a soft voice, “Nothing, it’s nothing.”

Although the boy said it was nothing, he had the appearance of someone who had done something wrong, appearing extremely guilty.

It was obvious that the boy was not skilled at lying.

With a cold gaze, the doctor saw the boy shake his head. After a few seconds, he smiled, a gentle smile as always. But upon closer inspection, an inexplicable sense of fear emanated from him, as if even the temperature in the air had dropped slightly.

Unfortunately, the boy didn’t notice anything amiss, and due to his shyness, he didn’t carefully observe the doctor.

If he had observed carefully, he would have noticed the faint traces of blood on the doctor’s sleeves and pockets. Even in the dim lighting of the room, it was discernible because the red color stood out too prominently against the pure white clothing.

Moreover, the doctor’s clothes were somewhat disheveled, as if he had just been through a fight.

In the doctor’s pocket, there seemed to be something sharp, causing the pocket to bulge slightly.

It looked somewhat like a surgical knife in terms of its shape.

Even for a doctor, carrying a surgical knife on their person was obviously unusual.

However, at this moment, the young boy was immersed in his own world and didn’t notice anything strange about the doctor.

The viewers of the horror livestream, on the other hand, did notice, but since they weren’t present at the scene, they were getting extremely anxious, and the barrage of comments scrolled rapidly.

【Qingqing, run quickly!!! He wants to kill you!!!】

【Qingqing, stop being shy, look up at him! His clothes are covered in blood!!!】

【Where did the doctor’s blood come from? Could it be that he performed a surgery while taking someone to pay the fees?】

【Bold speculation, could it be Jiang Sinian’s blood? He just went out with him. Has Jiang Sinian already been killed by him?】

【Wuwuwu, I’m about to lose my wife. I only knew he might not be able to survive for seven days, but it’s only the second day! Can someone please save my wife?!】

Unfortunately, no matter how frantic the livestream viewers became, it couldn’t affect the current situation.

The doctor had a smile on his lips. Just as he was about to take a step forward and get closer to the young boy, a piece of paper suddenly appeared in front of him, stopping his footsteps.

The doctor lowered his gaze and looked at the paper in the young man’s hand, which seemed to be the same paper the young man had tried to hide just moments ago.

However, the doctor’s gaze wasn’t focused on the paper, but rather on the hand holding the paper.

The young boy’s hand was beautiful, fair, slender, smooth, with well-defined knuckles, as if it was a perfect work of art.

The doctor’s gaze moved upward, landing on the young boy’s stunning face.

The young boy’s face was flushed, indicating that it took a great deal of courage for him to hand over the paper.

The doctor steadied his figure and took the paper, calmly unfolding it.

The paper was torn from an ordinary notebook, clearly from the notebook on his desk.

On the paper, there was a series of numbers written at the top, along with a sentence written next to it. However, for some reason, it had been crossed out in two places.

One place had four characters crossed out, while the other had a pattern.

It seemed like the person who had crossed them out did so hastily. It could vaguely be seen that the crossed-out words were “I like you,” along with a small heart-shaped pattern.

It was easy to guess that the person who wrote it wanted to confess their feelings but seemed to have reservations. That’s why they struggled to cross out those four words and the pattern, only leaving the contact information.

“This... This is my contact information.” The young boy released the doctor’s hand after handing over the paper, shyly avoiding eye contact with the doctor, not looking at his expression or reaction.

After the young boy spoke, the air seemed to warm up a bit, and that inexplicable sense of oppression disappeared.

The doctor resumed his usual gentleness. He blinked as they looked at the paper, lightly chuckled, and leaned down in front of the young boy. With a hint of curiosity, he pointed to the crossed-out area and spoke, “What did you cross out here?”

Just handing over the paper had already exhausted all of Ruan Qing’s courage. Having the doctor get so close to his face, his cheeks turned completely red. He opened his mouth several times but couldn’t say anything.

The more he couldn’t speak, the more anxious he became. After a while, a voice as small as a mosquito finally sounded, “That... I... I...”

“I... I...” The young boy stammered for a long time but couldn’t say anything.

The doctor didn’t rush the young boy but instead crouched in front of him, patiently waiting for him to speak. His gentle gaze seemed filled with encouragement.

Ruan Qing stuttered for a long time. His delicate little face turned red, and he bit his lips several times. The bitten lips had a rosy shine, making people want to taste their flavor. “I... like... like... like you.”

The young boy finally said it. After speaking, he pursed his lips tightly and looked at the doctor with anticipation and fear.

The doctor looked at the young boy in front of him. The young boy’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, casting a shadow that looked very beautiful under his eyes. His silky short hair lay gently on his face, and his lightly colored thin lips were slightly pursed. With misty eyes, he looked at the doctor full of reliance, resembling a soft and fluffy little white rabbit.

Still a little white rabbit cub that could not discern danger, perhaps it didn’t even know that it should run away from the big bad wolf in front of it.

Moreover, no matter how many times one looked, the young boy was still breathtakingly beautiful.

A faint shadow flickered in the doctor’s eyes, wishing to stain those pretty, clear eyes with a different color.

The doctor reached out and brushed away the scattered hair from the youth’s forehead, revealing a gentle smile. “You can’t, you know?”

The young boy probably expected rejection but also carried a glimmer of hope. So, when the doctor finished saying it’s not possible, the rims of his eyes quickly turned red, mist forming in his gaze. His lips tightened, displaying a mixture of stubbornness and grievance.

The once lively and spirited eyes lost their luster.

The doctor didn’t offer the usual comforting words but instead used his index finger to wipe away the youth’s tears, then lightly licked it. “Salty.”

The action was casual yet ambiguous, showing no signs of just having rejected someone.

However, the doctor acted as if it were perfectly natural, as if it were a completely normal thing to do.

Ruan Qing slightly opened his mouth, eyes widening. It seemed he couldn’t understand the doctor’s actions.

The doctor smiled and said, “In our hospital, it’s against the rules for patients and doctors to be in a romantic relationship.”

While speaking, the doctor ran his fingers through Ruan Qing’s beautiful face, his gestures carrying an indescribable sensuality. “Besides, we’ve only known each other for less than an hour, and you’re already saying you like me. I don’t quite believe it, so of course, it’s not possible.”

Seeing that the doctor remained skeptical and didn’t even care about touching his face, Ruan Qing became anxious and wanted to explain, his face turning red with urgency. “I-I really like...”

The doctor tilted his head, interrupting Ruan Qing’s words. “Then how will you prove it? How will you prove that you like me? Otherwise, I won’t believe it. Who knows if you’re just teasing me?”

“After all, who declares their liking within an hour of meeting someone?”
