Shen Chi was stunned when he saw the request being accepted. He stared at the other party for a long time and didn’t speak. He summoned up the courage to say hello.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God】Hello

Yan Xue Xiao in the hospital bed looked at WeChat without emotion. He didn’t know whether the other person was sent by Zheng An or Luo Shu. He didn’t respond and waited.

Shen Chi doesn’t know the suspicion of the other person. He finally has someone who he can talk to and he is quite talkative through the Internet. Even if he is facing a virtual girlfriend of 500 yuan.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God ‌】‌Today I received a large order of eighteen thousand

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God ‌】There was a power outage today. I went to the school canteen to buy candles, but there were none.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God 】Fortunately, I found the candle in the cabinet. I wouldn’t find them in the drawer if I didn’t look carefully.

Yan Xue Xiao saw a steady stream of messages on his phone. The other party didn’t seem to know how to stop talking. He pursed his lips on the hospital bed.

[Yan Xue Xiao] Don’t you have anyone to talk to?

This is a cold refusal, but he thinks about it seriously, Xiao Zui can’t talk, Zhuang Zhou works in a factory, he really has no one he can talk to.

After a while.

Yan Xue Xiao’s hand stopped on the delete friend and when he was about to press it, he suddenly received a reply from the other party.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God 】No one.

He lowered his eyelashes and couldn’t see his emotions. The questions he sent in the past made the other party send more diligently, and the message would always shake his phone every night.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God】

He really shouldn’t be bothered.

He thought indifferently.
*

The snow in the border town became thicker and thicker, and Shen Chi gradually became familiar with Yan Xue Xiao, such as knowing that his virtual girlfriend is a man.

For example, he doesn’t understand how he counts his own money. Yan Xue Xiao always calmly throws him a number.

[Yan Xue Xiao] I don’t understand addition and subtraction

He sat by the fireside wrapped in a thick quilt, perhaps due to the influence of his body, he suddenly realized that his computing ability had deteriorated.

Not only did he judge the gun wrong from time to time, but his wrists were also ineffective, which meant that he could make less money, and he had only been scolded by customers with ugly words. His speed became slow..

But he still has Yan Xuexiao to talk to, although his virtual girlfriend is a man.

[Asia’s No.1 Gun God] My customer complained

[Yan Xue Xiao] Complain back

He would definitely scold him back if he can change his job, but now he needs money too much. He learns to bend down like a man and apologize to the customer.

Once he took a big bill, he earned two thousand yuan for the first time and he typed quickly on the screen.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God】‌ Earned two thousand today, I want to go to the dessert shop to buy the most expensive strawberry cake to eat

After sending the message, he slowly calmed down. The six-inch strawberry cake costs 80 yuan, which is enough for his weekly living expenses.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God】A bit expensive

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God】I won’t buy it

Yan Xue Xiao looked at the tangled message of the other party and told himself that it was just for the sake of his peace.

【Yan Xue Xiao】Address.

Shen Chi thought that he needed customer information, so he didn’t hesitate to send his address because there is really nothing valuable in the rental house .

In the afternoon, he received what Yan Xue Xiao gave him. At the moment when he unpacked the package, his heart beat suddenly. There was a strawberry cake in the box.

It was just an ordinary afternoon, but it was the first time he ate dessert after coming to Border Town. He cherished the cake so much.

He is not even willing to throw away the packaging.

*
“It was found that it was under Luo Shu’s order.”

The man in the ward listened to the report in his hand. He was not surprised by the result. He quietly looked out the window.

He has always disliked fighting. He simply thinks it is boring. But in the eyes of others, it is like a sign of weakness. He would rather be a swordsman than a fish to be slaughtered.

A message appeared on the phone.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God ‌】This is the best strawberry cake I have ever eaten, thank you.

The other party transferred eighty yuan of money and then said carefully, like a little wolf cub with its tail outstretched tentatively.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God】‌ Can we do a video call?

Maybe the ward was too quiet, he looked at the extinguished screen and agreed.

*

After Shen Chi finished sending the message, the phone seemed to be hot. He knew that his request was getting more and more outrageous, but he couldn’t help but want to know Yan Xue Xiao.

He put the phone on the table without daring to read the reply and walked to the full-length mirror on the wall.

Cracks of different lengths appeared on the full-length mirror, the face on the mirror was sickly white and blue blood vessels appeared on the neck.

Although he cares about his hair very much and takes good care of his red hair every day, the roots of the hair gradually becoming dull.

He carefully used hair dye to replace the roots of his hair, trying his best to make himself look good, but his red hair would only make his complexion pale.

He lowered his head and picked up the phone again. Yan Xue Xiao didn’t respond which made him relax, but a message came on the screen in the next second.

——The other party invites you to make a video call

Holding the phone, he was shocked, and subconsciously accepted, but then he turned off the light.

A particularly handsome face is now on the screen, the eyebrows are dark and distinct and even if he is wearing medical clothes, they can’t hide the magnificent aura.

Unfamiliar feelings flowed under his heavy chest, he didn’t understand why his heart was beating so fast.

“No light?”

“The lamp is broken.”

What he said was a lie. He didn’t want Yan Xue Xiao to see his ugly face. He stared at Yan Xue Xiao’s dazzling face in the dark without blinking.

Through the reflection of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Yan Xue Xiao could see that the other party was a pitifully thin young man with amber eyes hanging under his red hair. It’s a little wolf cub who hasn’t grown up.

He couldn’t bear to die early in the bloody snowy night. He learned to control his emotions early, but his crow-feather-like eyelashes quivered slightly.

Shen Chi stared at the page where the call ended. He began to feel that something was wrong with him. At night, he dreamed that Yan Xue Xiao was standing in front of him. He thought he must be too lonely.

He deliberately reduced contact, but in the end he couldn’t help sharing his life. He felt Yan Xue Xiao by his side with him along the way.

He made voice calls from time to time but no one answered the phone. After he finally got through, he said, “I didn’t receive the order today. Would you like to give your account number to practice? No money.”

“Not playing games.” There was a pause on the phone, “I’m still ‌ in the shower.”

Hearing Yan Xue Xiao’s low voice, he hung up with red ears, clearly feeling that he seemed to like someone he had never met.

Sentimental secret love is spreading in his heart. He is trying to control it but it is getting more and more intense.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God】Do you have a girlfriend

[Yan Xue Xiao] None

When he receives a negative answer, he quietly let it go ‌, every time ‌ he is expressing his love implicitly.

He wanted to get better, so he forced himself to eat. He could eat two bowls of rice every day, but his body was still getting weak.

He knew he was sick, he didn’t have the courage to go to the hospital. When he came to the border town, he wanted to live and show the Shen family that he could. Now he just wants to live.

One day, he got up from his chair and fell into the dark in front of the rented house. When he woke up from a coma alone, he finally went to the hospital. The examination cost a full four hundred and fifty yuan.

He walked into the clinic filled with the smell of disinfectant water alone and the doctor looked at the computer and said, “You children don’t like to eat. The preliminary judgment is that the coma was caused by anemia. Other causes are not ruled out. Hospital infusion has the best therapeutic effect.”

He lowered his head and held the medicine list, “No.”

All his savings can only be spent in the hospital for two days and there is no effect if he wants to come. If he insists on taking medicine, he will get better.

He spent 600 to buy the medicine in the clinic and when he walked to the entrance of the hospital, he saw Dad Ji supporting the pregnant Mother Ji.

Shen Chi’s gaze cast on Mother Ji’s bulging belly, a new life was gestating in his belly and he was stunned for a while.

But he doesn’t have a standpoint to criticize, right? His heart is empty and no one cares about his departure.

He couldn’t help but turn on his cell phone.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God】Are you there?

The phone is extremely quiet.

[Yan Xue Xiao] What’s wrong?

[Yan Xue Xiao] I have been busy recently

Seeing the reply, he turned off the screen with satisfaction. He could hold the phone in his hand, but Yan Xue Xiao on the phone would listen to him.

Shen Chi brought the medicine back to the house, and took the medicine with warm water. The heavy bitterness spread in his mouth but he did not frown, when clearly, he was afraid of suffering.

He looked at the clean cake packaging on the tablecloth. He wanted to recover on his birthday and he wanted Yan Xue Xiao to see him..

【 Asia‌’s No.1 Gun God】‌ My birthday is in September. Do you have time to come to Border Town? ‌So we could eat my birthday cake.

The other party did not answer.

[Asia‌’s No.1 Gun God] It doesn’t matter when

It took a long time before he received the sentence okay, he didn’t know whether he would come or not.

He was afraid of disturbing the other party’s work, so he turned off his mobile phone and took the medicine according to the doctor’s instructions. He wanted to live until the day when Yan Xue Xiao came to the border town.

The effect of the medicine is not as big as he imagined. He still loses weight quickly. He doesn’t even have the strength to bask in the sun.

He was thin to a terrible level, his sleeves were empty and he faintly felt that he would not live to be eighteen years old.

Zhuang Zhou, who came back from the provincial capital, brought him a box of beautifully packaged mooncakes. He was reluctant to eat them so he put them under the cabinet. Zhuang Zhou asked him, “Are you waiting for someone?”

Shen Chi pursed his lips.

Mother Zhuang looked at his pitifully thin arms, pulling him to drink the thick chicken soup, he sat at the table and picked up the bowl.

Now he can’t absorb anything, and his throat is burning and uncomfortable, but looking at Mother Zhuang’s concerned eyes, he still drank it all.

It was dark when he returned to the residential building from Zhuang Zhou’s home when he heard a heavy crash as he passed the first floor.

Shen Chi followed the sound, he stood by the open door and through the crack of the door saw the strange man riding on Xiao Zui, her white skirt being thrown on the ground.

Xiao Zui’s eyes flashed with longing for the outside world but now they are numb and cold.

He clenched his hand and walked over. Before his hand touched the man’s clothes, Xiao Zui used his eyes to signal him not to. Finally, he lowered his head and walked to close the concealed door.

The smell of cigarettes appeared in the air. Sister Hong, who was smoking, walked downstairs in her shawl. She gave him a smile and said, “Do you like my daughter?”

Shen Chi shook his head.

Sister Hong walked up to him, the strong smell of smoke lingered into his nose and her throat inevitably felt retching. Sister Hong noticed his strangeness: “Do you feel sick?”

Without waiting for him, Sister Hong’s eyes sharpened, “It’s for her good. How many people in the border town can get into college? Everyone has their own lives to live.”

When Sister Hong finished speaking, she left and the closed door was opened. The man walked through the door while lifting his trousers. When he saw that he was quite experienced, he said, “Still a young girl? It’s 500 yuan at a time, but unfortunately it’s dumb and tasteless. ”

Shen Chi listened to the words and recalled Xiao Zui’s face, his stomach was full of nausea. He returned home and retched on the trash can.

Five hundred yuan is only the price of a pair of sneakers in Yancheng, but it can buy the dignity of a girl in the border city. He is disgusted in this world.

He also thought of Shi Liang next to the train station. He just wanted to help his mother collect the surgery fee but died on the cold operating table. Life in the border town was not worth any money.

He felt that he was rotting in the dead water, the moon was in the distant sky, he could only look up desperately.

The frequency of Shen Chi’s coma was getting higher and higher, because he was worried that he would not be able to wake up, so he sat at the table and wrote a will.

One thousand and eight hundred yuan is his entire property. He left most of it to the Shen family. Although it is not what he wants to, he does not want to owe the Shen family.

Come cleanly.

Walk cleanly.

It’s just that he left the cake money, because he promised Yan Xue Xiao to eat the birthday cake with him.

He also wanted to make a video call to Yan Xue Xiao. He wanted him to see what he looked like.

But now he is really ugly, his red hair is dull and his skin is almost transparent. He doesn’t even dare to look at himself.

Shen Chi’s will consciousness gradually blurred then he looked out of the window in darkness, unable to see the moonlight in the sky.

【Asia’s No.1 Gun God】Unfortunately there is no moon today

His body is getting weaker and weaker, and he doesn’t seem to be able to hold on. He slowly closed his amber eyes.

It’s like falling asleep.
*

After returning to China, Yan Xue Xiao calmly watched Zheng An fall from a tall building and stared at Luo Shu’s death in pain. If his mother wants to rely on her younger brother to seize power, he doesn’t mind letting her lose her last hope.

Step by step, he became the person he hated the most. When he was covered with blood and sat in a high position, there was no one beside him.

There may be someone.

Power brought him a sense of security. His eyes fell on the screen and thought that the little wolf cub, who is not very obedient to convenience, can now be brought by him and raised slowly.

He went to the border town as agreed, holding his favorite strawberry cake in his hand.

Huang Shijing, who was by Yan Xue Xiao’s side, didn’t know why Yan Xue Xiao would come to the border town. The border town was more dilapidated than he had imagined, with potholes on the road and the gutters on the side of the road full of sewage.

From Yancheng to Border City, it was like coming to another world. He vaguely remembered that the child born to the Shen family in Yancheng was wrongly held. The child who had lived in Yancheng was sent back to the poor border city.

He doesn’t know what happened to that child, only that Shen’s biological child was admitted to Yan University. Mrs. Shen praised her precious son when she met everyone.

Huang Shijing took it back. Some people said that Shi Ran was a mad dog and dared to kill Yan Zhao in the Yan family, but he felt that Yan Xue Xiao was even more crazy.

If it weren’t for Mrs. Yan to be mentally ill and there was no threat, he had no doubt that Yan Xuexiao would act on his biological mother.

Yan Xue Xiao walked to the residential building. He looked at the dilapidated building and frowned. He preferred that the little wolf dog was lying to him and instead living in a comfortable apartment and approaching him for other purposes.

Yan Xue Xiao saw a woman carrying a bamboo basket walking ‌residential building, walking over he asked, “Have you ever seen a child with red hair?”

“You mean Shen Chi, right?” Mother Zhuang’s eyes were sullen, “He lives in the last room of the building.”

It turns out that his name is Shen Chi.

Yan Xue Xiao said silently.

“Xiao Chi is a poor child, Let me take you up.” Mother Zhuang wiped her tears, “The control light in the building is broken and it is not easy to walk.”

He passed through the dark corridor and stopped at the end of the single room, which was small and empty. There was no air circulation and the walls were covered with dust, as if it had been uninhabited for a long time.

“The child lived here before he was alive.” Mother Zhuang continued to burn the paper money in the bamboo basket. “Even though Shen Chen did not live. The reason of death was discovered. The doctor said it was severe anemia caused by malnutrition. ”

Huang Shijing was surprised to hear that because anemia is not a serious disease. As long as it is treated in time, it will not cause death. He looked at the small and humid rented house. The child of this age was procrastinated with severe anemia, obviously because of poverty.

He himself has a daughter, so he can’t help but ask: “Does his parents leave him alone?”

“His biological parents have a new child.” Mother Zhuang said with blame, “I was busy taking care of the baby who was just born. How can I not care about the child who is close to me? Xiao Chi was so thin before when he was alive ‌.”

Not only is she blaming Father Ji and Mother Ji but she is also guilty. If she can take care of Shen Chi a little bit more, this child will not die before he grows up.

Mother Zhuang said as she talked, tears fell again, “No one rented the house where the tenant suspected that someone had died. The house is still in its original state. I heard that the child seemed to be waiting for someone.”

Yan Xue Xiao narrowed his eyes and walked to the table to read the note. There are only simple property arrangements on the pages of the book, no sensational words.

There are still 1,800 yuan on the bank card. 1,300 yuan will be sent to the Shen family in Yancheng and 500 yuan will be bought for Yan Xue Xiao’s birthday cake. By the way, there are moon cakes left in the cabinet and not eaten. If Yan Xue Xiao is here, please give it to him.

It turns out that Shen Chi didn’t really lie to himself. He didn’t dare to imagine how weak Shen Chi would be as he typed in despair, but he responded coldly.

Yan Xue Xiao put the prepared birthday cake on the table, his fingers shaking slightly.

He was clearly looking forward to his birthday so much, but he didn’t even survive and died alone in a border town with no one by his side.

Although Mother Zhuang didn’t know the identity of this man, she knew that she was not an ordinary person by looking at his clothes, let alone the crowd of people behind her.

But she felt strong emotions from the man and she heard the man’s mute voice while she was in front of her.

“Where is the moon cake?”

Zhuang’s mother took the moon cakes from the cabinet. Because the boxes were moldy when they were placed in a damp environment, she handed the moon cakes over to remind them, “It had been here for too long and you can’t eat it anymore.”

However, when he saw the man tearing down the mooncakes and eating them. Huang Shijing caught a glimpse of Yan Xue Xiao, who had always been indifferent and shed a little tear.

But the man returned to his usual indifference when he raised his head after eating the mooncakes. Huang Shijing thought he had misunderstood. How could a person like Yan Xue Xiao be in love? It must be his illusion.

He didn’t know who Shen Chi was to Yan Xue Xiao, he only knew that Yan Xue Xiao, who returned to Yancheng, was even more moody.

He doesn’t know how the Shen family got into this. Mrs. Shen’s darling was in a car accident and Mrs. Shen, who had high hopes for her son, went crazy on the spot. The Shen family, who was on the right track, fell into a slump.

He heard that Mrs. Shen, who was sent back to the northwest, didn’t even have money to go to the hospital.

It’s a pity that Yan Xue Xiao wouldn’t let her die.

He felt that Yan Xue Xiao could be called sick, but no one dared to say this in front of Yan Xue Xiao. He didn’t even dare to speak loudly in front of Yan Xue Xiao. A group of trusted followers were changed, only the mobile phone had never been changed.

On September 3rd , Huang Shijing didn’t know which day it was, but Yan Xue Xiao was gloomy, and no one dared to accompany the man.

He bit his head and walked into the room, handed over the documents and walked tremblingly to the study. When he turned around and walked to the study, he caught a glimpse of Yan Xue Xiao.

Huang Shijing didn’t know if it was his illusion. At this time, Yan Xue Xiao had a gentleness in his eyes that he had never felt before and he suppressed his doubts and left.

The man didn’t care about Huang Shijing’s departure, or he didn’t care about anyone. He just looked at the window and narrowed his dark eyes. Today, he was supposed to be nineteen.

He didn’t know if there was an afterlife. Yan Xue Xiao raised his head. If there is an afterlife, he wants to take the little wolf cub in the snow back home.

Give him the best things.

Accompanying him, while looking at the moon.
