Hani,
What look like wheels are actually the roundels. The wheels retract into the fuselage.
The MiG-21 (and it's J-7/F-7 derivatives) landing gear is inward-retracting, not outward, as jmbiii correctly points out.
Here's some good shots of a whole bunch of MiG-21s, which show the landing gear in various stages of deployment and from many angles.

cheers,

The later J-7 variants are not the final evolution of the basic MiG-21 design.

I'd learn mandarin for a flightsim rendition of that one.
But it does certainly look good!
Somehow it looks like a Hawk with Flanker-lines...
