    Chapter 105: Extra 2 (Song Qinn’s Beard)


    In the summer of Star Era 1457, Tianqiong organised a special training program for the elites all across the world.


    As the captain, Song Qinn, together with Zhou Mingxuan who simrly came from the special forces, took part in this highly intense training program. It took an entire month. Once it was over, the World Time Alliance also arranged a one-weekpetition which was broadcasted throughout the world. The contributed efforts of all the representatives from their country allowed them to bring back first ce, and Song Qinn and Zhou Mingxuan also won individual gold medals themselves.


    The Jiang City branch warmly celebrated this good news and they even had banners put up in the hall.


    The people who went together with them to this special training program also included the captains and team members from the other squads; a total of seven people. One of them was Qi Lang, the captain of the twelfth squad who disappeared many years ago and suddenly returnedst year.


    From a certain point of view, time had stopped for fifteen years for the members of the twelfth squad. After returning to Jiang City, the members had to undergo various degrees of adaptation courses to help them reconnect with the world fifteen yearster, but their abilities exceeded everyone’s expectations—-Except for Xie Sian, after they were released from the crevice of time and space, they hadpleted several high-level missions under the arrangement of the Tianqiong parent system. Led by Qi Lang, the twelfth squad silently went to work and when they returned, they had umted points that was almost on par to the seventh squad, making them a new dark horse.


    Qi Lang as a result became well known in Jiang City and even in other time alliances. His peculiar experience had made him almost a legend.


    Qi Lang was mature, handsome and single.


    Arge number of fans had gathered because of him.


    The day they returned to the country, half of the people rushing to wee them back came for him.


    As for the former most popr bachelor Song Qinn, because he had be gay and would often show public disys of affection in front of everyone, he had long fallen from that throne. Even if he was still the tallest captain in the Jiang City branch, it was no longer enough to attract everyone’s attention.


    But this time, the moment he got out of the car, everyone’s eyesnded on him.


    Everyone: “!!!”


    With his domineering height, Song Qinn had a strong presence, and with the addition of his long legs and short boots, the visual effect was even more out of this world. Adding to that his handsome appearance, wide shoulders and narrow waist, his external appearance was absolutely wless.


    However, after a torturing month abroad, it was unknown if it was because he was too busy to the point that he didn’t even have the time to shave, the Song Qinn who reappeared in front of everyone had a dark stubble.


    “What is it?” He swept his gaze across the people from above, “I’m so dazzling that I’ve blinded your eyes?”


    Everyone: “Damn!!”


    When the noisy weing ceremony was over, Song Qinn picked out a colleague and asked, “Where’s Advisor Ji?”


    That colleague turned around and was startled, “Cap Song?!”


    Song Qinn asked his question again.


    The colleague told him that Advisor Ji was still teaching the students in the training camp and couldn’t step away, but it should almost be time for sses to end.


    After being transferred to the Jiang City branch, although Ji Yushi had joined formerly as the scout for the seventh squad, he not only had the knowledge and experience surpassing that of the Guardians the same level as him, but he had also worked as a Recorder and gained extensive experience there, so he still retained the ‘Advisor’ title. As for the time anchor and how the Tianqiong parent system worked, it still hadn’t been thoroughly studied but the matter regarding Sheng Yun had basically alle to light. Everything he and the research and development team had done in order to stabilise time and space had been corrected in the archives. As the key person who linked all this, Ji Yushi became a rising star in the Tianqiongwork.


    Ji Yushi used to be the student who listened to the lectures given during training camps but now he had be the one who gave the lectures.


    Song Qinn had already seen how he looked when he stood on the podium. Refined and knowledgeable, smoothmunicator, he was simply a person who was born to be involved with scientific research, to be a teacher.


    Song Qinn strode into the lecture hall. The ssroom was already empty except for Ji Yushi who was standing alone on the podium with his head down. He seemed to be sorting out the handouts.


    Hearing a knock on the door, he raised his head.


    Song Qinn who had been away for more than a month stood at the door. He teasingly called out, “Teacher Ji.”


    One day apart felt like three years had passed.


    It had been more than thirty days but both of them looked calm, as if they had only seen each other that morning.


    Song Qinn said, “Everyone is already gone, why are you still here? Aren’t you being too dedicated?”


    Ji Yushi put away the transparent panel. Song Qinn managed to catch a glimpse of the content on the screen—-What sorting out handouts? It was clearly a recently released sports anime. Ji Yushi liked it very much and would constantly keep up to date with it without missing a single episode.


    Song Qinn wanted tough. The current Ji Yushi seemed to be getting more and more lovely.


    Ji Yushi’s expression didn’t change, “I knew you woulde so I decided to wait for you here. What if we miss each other if I left?”


    The Jiang City branch was big, but there were only two or three roads from the lobby to the student training camp.


    Ji Yushi didn’t know which path Song Qinn would take so he decided to just wait here so that they could see each other again in the shortest time possible.


    It was calm on the surface, but the actual undercurrents were surging.


    It was almost about to go on fire.


    Song Qinn came over. He stepped onto the podium and brought the other person into his arms.


    He sniffed Ji Yushi’s hair and took a deep breath of that familiar fragrance. Before he could speak again, he heard Ji Yushi say, “You have a stubble.”


    Song Qinn, “………”


    He btedly realised, “It looks sloppy, doesn’t it?”


    When the seventh squad first returned to the real world following the hijacking incident, Chief Wang had also told him to shave his beard. Recalling it now, it seemed to contain a nagging tone. Song Qinn didn’t look in the mirror much and he didn’t have the time to check his appearance during missions or special training, so he hadn’t paid much attention to his appearance.


    Ji Yushi looked up at him. His bright eyes didn’t seem to be lying, “No…..”


    Song Qinn raised a brow, “Then? Why is everyone reacting so strongly?”


    Ji Yushi rubbed his chin with his thumb. Feeling those hard stubbles pricking his thumb, he said, “Looks a little fierce.”


    “Really fierce.” Ji Yushi continued, “Kids will cry when they see you.”


    Song Qinn, “….Then I’ll go back and shave.”


    Ji Yushi said with a ck belly, “That’s not necessary. It’s actually pretty good. You can leave it and help me scare those new students.”


    The scheming and vengeful Teacher Ji had already nned on using his family to intimidate his students.


    That group of new students were still unaware. Before they could get up to any mischief, they had already been dealt with by the seemingly gentle Advisor Ji.

    This time, the stubble left from the special training program surprised the three cats at home. It took them a while to confirm that the one who entered their ce was really their other owner.


    Song Qinn wanted to shave it off after leaving it for two days, but Ji Yushi would gnaw at his chin when they were being intimate. He seemed to be interested in his beard and was especially enthusiastic.


    This made him a little reluctant. He again endured for another two days.


    A few dayster, everyone gradually got used to his new image. Even Chief Wang stopped talking abut it and no longer asked him to shave it.


    This continued until one day, Song Qinn went to the student training camp to teach thembative skills. Perhaps he appeared too strict, a female student really ended up crying. He promptly went back to his lounge and shaved off his beard, revealing his clean and refreshing face underneath.


    When he appeared at the training camp again, a brave student stopped him and asked, “Who are you?”


    Song Qinn was speechless, “What do you mean?”


    Hearing his voice, the student was stunned. Afterbining it with his height and determining that he was their instructor, he was shocked, “What? Instructor Song?!”


    Not only this student was like this. After Song Qinn finished his ss, everyone who had grown used to his new image were all stunned. It took them all a while to return to their senses and greet him.


    Song Qinn thought it was rather amusing. Was it such a big deal whether or not he had a beard?


    He ran into Qi Lang on his way to the parking lot.


    The Qi Lang in the bubble world was strategic, elegant and extraordinarily skilled, allowing him to be the Chief. Although he himself didn’t know anything about what he was like in the bubble world, but from the looks of it, he seemed to have embarked on apletely different life path in the real world—–With all those years of sry as well as bonuses, he had be a young socialite who burnt his money like crazy.


    The handsome Qi Lang also drove a sports car. When he opened the door, he happened to catch sight of Song Qinn.


    He paused for a second and then nodded in greeting, “Cap Song.”


    Because of the events in the crevice of time and space, the two had a pretty good rtionship with each other. They had also taken care of each other when they went abroad for special training.


    Song Qinn asked, “Cap Qi, I have something I want to ask you.”


    Qi Lang casually said, “Ask away.”


    Song Qinn voice his doubts.


    Qi Langughed. He told him, “It’s because you look too different. With a stubble, you’re practically like another person. Those who aren’t familiar with you really would not be able to recognise you and as for those who are familiar, they would feel strange when facing a different you. Someone in my squad asked me a few days ago if you came from a parallel world. They knew that you’re Cap Song but you felt fierce and unfamiliar.”


    Song Qinn felt like he had just heard something extremely far-fetched, “Following that line of thought, I won’t even need to use the artificial face?”


    Qi Lang sat into his car and started it up. He advised meaningfully, “Don’t be so doubtful. Some people really have that kind of talent. Why don’t you go back and ask your Advisor Ji?”


    After Qi Lang drove off, Song Qinn was thoughtful. He then suddenly smiled. He got ready to go home to find a certain someone to settle ounts with.


    *


    Ji Yushi sat barefoot on the carpet. His left hand was petting a cat while his right hand picked up fruits to eat. His eyes were staring at the holographic projection ahead.


    He was fully engrossed with keeping up with the newest episode of his beloved anime.


    Hearing the sound of the door opening, Little ck slipped away from under his hand and, together with the other two cats, they rushed to the door to greet their owner, meowing loudly. Song Qinn changed his shoes, picked one of them up and went to the living room. As soon as Ji Yushi saw his face, he asked, “You shaved?”


    This tone. It was exactly the same tone he used when he said “You have a stubble”.


    As if he had found a switch or something, one could hear a hint of novelty and interest in that tone.


    Song Qinn walked over, picked up the person from the ground and pressed them down onto the sofa, “Advisor Ji, was role-ying fun?”


    Ji Yushi was eating cantaloupe. His eyes were even sweeter than the cantaloupe he had, “It was alright.”


    He had admitted it so quickly.


    Song Qinn was both angry and amused, “It’s really that different? Or was it because you’re getting sick of me?”@@novelbin@@


    If the people in the training camp saw the current Advisor Ji, they would probably be shocked speechless.


    The usually cold and serious, and extremely knowledgeable person who could easily provide logical exnations was like the whitest cloud in the sky, a being that a mere mortal couldn’t reach.


    But at this moment, that person was still that person, but just like the Song Qinn with a beard, Ji Yushi’s personality seemed to havepletely changed. He was willing to be subdued on the sofa,pletely unable to move.


    Ji Yushi, “Very different.”


    Song Qinn with a beard, not only did he appear fiercer, he also didn’t seem like the original Song Qinn. He originally had a ruffian-like air but with the addition of the beard, that air grew a lot stronger, making people afraid to look directly at him and even feel some fear.


    It was simply another version of Song Qinn.


    “Every time I saw you grow a beard, that unfamiliar feeling was always very strong. It’s like dating two of you at the same time.” Ji Yushi said slyly, “Later I realised that if a person wants to manage two rtionships at the same time, it’s actually not that difficult.”


    While joking, he still brought up old grudges.


    Song Qinn lowered his head to bite him.


    Ji Yushi smoothly turned and pushed Song Qinn down onto the sofa instead.


    With the anime sounds in the background, he leaned down and rubbed Song Qinn’s smooth chin with his thumb. He said a little reluctantly, “I like both of them…..Xiao Song 1.0, wee back.”
