Shen Xingting and Cen Jing became closer again. He would help Cen Jing get food, water, homework, clean up, and draw blackboard newspapers.

But Shen Xingting had no artistic talent, and he always made things worse, causing Cen Jing to spend twice as much time as usual to finish.

But Cen Jing never got angry, he was very happy, if only it could always be like this.

In the second half of the third year of junior high school, everyone was busy with their review, and Shen Xingting had less time to talk to Cen Jing, but the two would go out together on weekends to watch movies or have a meal. After the

high school entrance examination, Shen Xingting and his family of five went on a trip. Every time he went to a place, he would send Cen Jing a lot of photos and buy a lot of souvenirs.

On the first day of his freshman year, he brought a whole bag of souvenirs, all signed and figurines of various comic book authors that Cen Jing liked.

"Signature of Qiao Mu! And figurines of Liu Xi and Kong Jue!" Cen Jing was so happy holding the gifts, with a twinkling light in his eyes, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off him. "

I heard you say you liked Qiao Mu before, and I happened to pass by his autograph session, so I queued up to buy some." Shen Xingting curled his lips and said, "I'm glad you like it."

In fact, it was not convenient. Halfway through the trip, he took a bus for two or three hours to buy the things.

"Thank you, I like it very much!" Cen Jing held his birthday present with great care, touching it again and again. He suddenly remembered something, "Wait for me!"

He turned back to his seat, took out a small bag from his bag, and then trotted back to Shen Xingting.

"This is for you." He said with a slightly red cheek.

"What is it?" Shen Xingting's heart almost stopped beating after receiving the gift. The shy Cen Jing was so cute, like a little cat trying to please its owner, making people want to hug him and rub his chin.

He opened the bag and saw an ugly and cute doll lying inside. The stitches on it were a little rough, and it was obviously sewn by hand.

"Is this... made by you?" He took out the doll and looked at Cen Jing in surprise.

Cen Jing pursed his lips, and his cheeks seemed to be a little redder than before.

"Well, you have everything you need. I didn't know what to give you, so I made a doll for you." He looked down at the ugly doll in Shen Xingting's hand and regretted bringing it to school. "It's ugly, right? If you don't like it, I'll go to Taobao to customize one next time and give it to you. This one is for..."

"I like it. I didn't say I don't like it!" Shen Xingting hugged the doll tightly, with an expression as if he was afraid that he would snatch it away. "There is no reason to take back a gift that has been given away. Since it was given to me, it is mine."

"You... really like it?" Cen Jing asked suspiciously. Shen

Xingting nodded: "I like it." He raised the doll and kissed it on the mouth. "I like it so much that I even want to hold it to sleep at night."

Cen Jing: "..."

He turned his head away. At this time, not only his cheeks, but also his ears and neck were red.

Fool, who wants to sleep with you.

He thought with a blushing face and a pounding heart.

"But, this doll doesn't look like me." Shen Xingting looked at the little doll with stars in its eyes and wearing a light blue outfit, and slowly widened his eyes, "What is this..."

"Don't say it!" Cen Jing stared at him, "I'm going to start morning reading, you go back!"

"Oh, okay." Shen Xingting watched Cen Jing return to his seat, blushing as he took out the textbook from the table hole. When he was reading, his back was straight, like a proud little kitten. His claws were not sharp, but they tickled him a little.

Cen Jing secretly glanced at the door, and seeing that he didn't leave, he paused with his hands holding the book, then silently hunched his body and hid his whole face in the book.

Shen Xingting found it funny. Cen Jing was really cute when he was shy, but he couldn't tease him too much, because cats would ignore people when they got angry.

He poked the doll's red cheeks, smiled and turned away.

Shen Xingting and Cen Jing were not in the same class. Shen Xingting was in Class 7 and Cen Jing was in Class 3. One was on the fourth floor and the other was on the second floor.

Although they were not in the same class, the two were still the same as they were in junior high school. After class, Shen Xingting would buy lunch for Cen Jing, and then go to a deserted place together to sit and share each other's food.

After evening self-study, he would send Cen Jing to the school gate, watch him get into a private car, and then turn around and leave.

On weekends, the two would meet in a coffee shop to do homework, and spend the rest of the time watching movies and eating, and even went to an Internet cafe to play games together.

Cen Jing had been strictly controlled since he was a child, and rarely went to the playground, let alone an Internet cafe.

That day, Shen Xingting took his wrist and walked into an Internet cafe called "It's You".

Cen Jing knew that most of the people who came to the Internet cafe to surf the Internet were boys, who would smoke and shout while playing games.

But he didn't smell any smoke here, and the noise was not as noisy as he imagined.

"How is it, can you adapt?" Shen Xingting turned his head and looked at him worriedly.

Cen Jing smiled and nodded: "Well, I'm fine."

Hearing this, Shen Xingting smiled with the corners of his mouth curled: "That's good, this is what I discovered after half a month of investigation. The owner of this Internet cafe doesn't like the smell of smoke or noise. You will be fined if you smoke here."

He pointed to the sensor on the wall and said, "See, this is a decibel tester. Once the sound exceeds the value set by the boss, it will alarm."

Cen Jing widened his eyes slightly, and he asked curiously: "Won't this drive away customers?"

"It will discourage a lot of people." Shen Xingting said half-jokingly, "Maybe the boss has a lot of money, and the Internet cafe is just opened for fun."

"Let's go, today I'll teach you how to play a shooting game." He took Cen Jing's wrist, swiped his ID at the front desk, and went to the small private room upstairs together.

"What shooting game? Is it fun?" Cen Jing said with great interest, "I haven't played many games. Last time you mentioned 'Honor of Kings', I practiced for a while at home during the summer vacation."

Shen Xingting turned on the computer and said, "The amazing Yaoyao I told you about, do you know how to play it?"

Cen Jing nodded, "Of course, I was just not familiar with it before. Next time we play, I will ride on your head to protect you for the whole game."

Shen Xingting smiled, "Okay."

"What are we going to play?" After the computer was turned on, Cen Jing asked while sitting in his seat.

"'Jedi Gun King', this game is endorsed by your idol." As soon as Shen Xingting opened the page, he saw his father in camouflage clothes, holding a gun and "looking" at him.

Shen Xingting: "..."

The sense of déjà vu was so strong that he almost took out his homework just now.

Cen Jing looked at Uncle Shen on the page with a firm look in his eyes and an imposing manner, and blinked slowly.

"Uncle Shen is so handsome."

Shen Xingting curled his lips: "Am I not handsome?"

"Handsome." Seeing his sour face, Cen Jing said with crooked eyes, "Uncle Shen is already married no matter how handsome he is, but you are different."

Shen Xingting's heart skipped a beat, and he tilted his head to look at Cen Jing: "What do you mean?"

Cen Jing did not answer him, but smiled and said: "The game has begun."

Shen Xingting was a little disappointed. His bad mood caused him to have a very bad hand feeling. As soon as he landed, he was sprayed to death with a spray.

He pursed his lips: "Come on, I will definitely take you to win the chicken dinner next time."

"Okay." Cen Jing smiled obediently.

In the second game, Shen Xingting regained his hand feeling and led Cen Jing all the way to the finals, and successfully won the chicken dinner.

During this time, two human-computer games were captured for Cen Jing to practice with. Cen Jing was a talented player. After a few games, he killed several enemies by himself.

"Awesome!" After Cen Jing killed the enemy for the third time, Shen Xingting raised his thumb and praised him.

"Master taught me well." Cen Jing said with a smile.

The two played in the Internet cafe for more than two hours. After having dinner together, Shen Xingting sent him home.

...

In the second year of high school, Shen Xingting and Cen Jing were assigned to the same class, and they sat in front and behind each other, which made Shen Xingting happy for a long time.

Seeing how close they were, classmates thought they were in love and teased them at first. But later, when they saw that they had never held hands except for eating and doing homework together, they thought it was boring and paid little attention to them.

In the first half of the senior year, Cen Jing was hospitalized due to poor health. Shen Xingting skipped classes to see Cen Jing and was hurt by the thin figure in the ward who was looking out the window.

From that moment on, he finally determined his future path.

He wanted to be a doctor and take good care of Cen Jing in the future so that he could live in the sun and never have to envy others again.

Liu Huaijian was very happy to know that his adopted son wanted to study medicine, and even offered to recommend him to his alma mater, Y University, so that he could enter Y University.

Shen Xingting refused, saying that he wanted to apply to S University. S University is also one of the best universities in the country, but it is not a good place to study medicine.

Because the School of Medicine is a newly established affiliated school of S University, with Shen Xingting's grades, applying for an affiliated school that has only been established for a few years and has not even recruited all the teachers is a waste of talent.

But he has made up his mind, and during the winter vacation he bought a lot of medical books and started to study by himself. He hardly went out during the entire winter vacation and stayed in the study room reading books.

However, he did not forget to say good morning and good night to Cen Jing every day, and sometimes they would even have video calls. He would tell Cen Jing the funny jokes he saw.

Cen Jing listened quietly, and when he heard something interesting, he would curl his eyes and give Shen Xingting a bright smile.

Shen Xingting liked to see Cen Jing smile, and he hoped that Cen Jing would always be happy and blessed.

Shen Xingting thought that he and Cen Jing would always be together, take the college entrance examination together, walk into S University side by side, and then hug and kiss on the playground like most ordinary couples.

But Cen Jing disappeared. One month before the college entrance examination, Cen Jing suddenly disappeared.

Shen Xingting will always remember that day, he sat in the back row, watching Cen Jing's desk and chair empty for the whole morning.

He had no mood to study. He held his mobile phone and sent messages to Cen Jing again and again, but all his messages fell on deaf ears and there was no reply.

Shen Xingting felt that this could not go on. After class, he asked the teacher about Cen Jing's situation, but got the news that Cen Jing had transferred to another school.

"How could it be?" he asked blankly.

"I was also surprised. The college entrance examination is almost here. Why do you suddenly want to transfer the child to another school?" The head teacher shook his head. "Later I heard that the whole family is going abroad and does not need to take the college entrance examination."

"Going abroad?" Shen Xingting was completely frozen.

No, Cen Jing would not leave without saying goodbye. They had agreed to apply for S University together.

Shen Xingting could not accept it. He pushed open the door of the office and wanted to find Cen Jing to ask him face to face.

He skipped classes and left school, then took a taxi to the neighborhood where Cen Jing lived. The security guard at the gate was taking a nap, so he stepped lightly and climbed over the wall to get in.

Cen Jing lived on the 16th floor, and one needed to swipe an elevator card to get into the elevator. Shen Xingting didn't have an elevator card, so he could only take the stairs.

Six minutes later, he appeared at the door of Cen Jing's house, panting heavily, propped up on his knees .

"Ding Dong--"

"Ding Dong--"

The doorbell rang several times, but no one came out to open the door. He gave up pressing the doorbell, raised his hand and knocked hard on the door several times.

"Cen Jing?"

An elderly lady lived next door to Cen Jing's house. When she heard the noise, she thought someone was here to collect the bill. She raised her crutches, carefully opened the security door and took a look. When she saw it was a young child, she put her crutches down again.

"Don't scream, little classmate. They moved out yesterday." The old lady opened the door and said.

Hearing this, Shen Xingting turned around and asked anxiously, "Moved out? Grandma, do you know why they moved out?"

"Let me think about it. Why is it..." The old lady was a little old and her memory was not very good. She leaned on her cane and thought for a long time. Finally, she remembered something, "It seems that someone in the family is sick and needs to go for treatment."

"Mom, who is it?" The old lady's daughter saw her standing at the door for a long time and asked.

"It's a young man who came to visit the family next door." The old lady said.

The old lady's daughter was a gossip-loving person. When she heard this, she immediately came over.

"They moved out last night in such a hurry that they didn't even have time to pack their luggage. I woke up in the middle of the night and heard that their daughter's condition had worsened and they were going abroad for treatment." The woman sighed, "Oh, such a beautiful girl, what a pity."

The condition worsened...

Shen Xingting's face turned pale and he asked quickly, "Auntie, the sick girl is my classmate. Do you know anything about her condition?"

"I don't know about that. We just moved in not long ago and haven't seen the girl for many times. But it should be serious. I took a look through the security door last night and the girl couldn't even walk and had to sit in a wheelchair."

"Hey classmate, are you okay?" Seeing his frighteningly pale face, the woman asked nervously, "Do you need me to call a doctor for you?"

Shen Xingting shook his head: "Thank you, I'm fine."

He turned and walked into the stairwell, feeling extremely uncomfortable. He leaned against the wall for a long time before moving his steps to leave the community.

...

"Shen Xingting, can we take the entrance exam to S University together?"

"Okay." Shen Xingting smiled at the girl in a white dress in front of him.

The scene changed, and the girl was holding a dirty white dress, looking at him sadly: "Shen Xingting, I want to tell you something, I am actually a boy."

"Don't cry." His heart ached, and he held her in his arms and whispered, "I know, I have always known."

"You know? Then do you still like me?"

Shen Xingting wiped the tears from his face and said softly: "I like Cen Jing, whether Cen Jing is a boy or a girl, I like him, as long as you are still Cen Jing, I will always like him."

"Shen Xingting, will you wait for me?" Cen Jing looked up at him.

"Yes."

Cen Jing smiled: "Shen Xingting, you have to wait for me, wait for me to come back to you..."

"Shen Xingting, the phone is ringing. Shen Xingting, the phone is ringing. Shen Xingting, come..."

The mobile phone rang suddenly, and Cen Jing's smiling face disappeared in the dream again.

Shen Xingting frowned and grabbed the phone lying on the bedside table with an irritable expression.

"Chairman Shen, where are you?" As soon as the call was connected, Li Jue shouted at him in a hoarse voice, "Today is the freshman enrollment day, you didn't forget it, did you?! A dozen volunteers came to help because of you. If you don't show up, they will all run away. Do you want to tire us to death?!"

"Got it." Shen Xingting pinched his eyebrows, "I'll go there right away."

Ten minutes later, he packed himself up and prepared to go out with his schoolbag on his back.

"Xiao Jing, see you tonight." Before leaving, he said to the ugly doll placed on the cabinet in the entrance hall.
