As soon as the National Day holiday is over, the third-year high school students continue to read books, study and write papers, while the second-year high school students attend classes as normal.

As the school sports meet approached, every class in the first and second year of high school began to get excited, with slogans flying everywhere and shouting loudly, and they rehearsed the formation movements in the playground every afternoon.

Carter Xing was busy with the school team training, but he still found time to serve as the flag bearer for the school. Ethan Ning was in his third year of high school and could not participate, but as soon as he finished his test paper in the afternoon, he looked out the window and saw Carter Xing standing at the front of the flag bearer formation.

Carter Xing was wearing a uniform with a tie and shirt, and white gloves on his hands. He was holding a corner of a red flag. His hair was a little longer and was styled with hairspray. He walked steadily to the rhythm of the slogans and was full of ambition.

The layer of glass in Ethan Ning's heart seemed to have been hit repeatedly by Carter Xing with a small hammer, until cracks appeared and were about to be completely shattered, causing him to collapse.

Ethan Ning looked at the few people behind him who were guarding the flag and they all looked like Carter Xing.

Before the evening self-study session started at 7 o'clock, each class in the senior year had to send someone to the printing room to pick up the papers, with arts and science classes staggered. Ethan Ning walked past the science class and didn't see Hunter Ying coming out.

Senior year is on the fourth floor, senior year is on the third floor, and senior year is on the second floor. There are printing rooms on the second and third floors, but they are at the other end of the corridor.

Ethan Ning went downstairs and found that he had to cross a corridor to reach the printing room.

He stood at the stairs and thought for a while, vaguely remembering that Carter Xing's classroom was also on this floor.

Ethan Ning was considered a celebrity in the school. When he stood at the stairs, the corridor of the second-year students who had just finished their evening self-study became much quieter, and inevitably a few girls ran out of the classroom to see him.

He was wearing a school uniform today, holding a pen and a form for collecting the test paper in his hand. The long sleeves of his school uniform were rolled up. He was not affected by the noise of the second-year high school corridor after class. He kept his eyes fixed forward and did not look at anyone around him.

Ethan Ning walked halfway down the corridor and saw Carter Xing as soon as he passed Class 3 of the Second Grade Liberal Arts Department.

Carter Xing was standing at the back door of the classroom, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and his basketball shorts. He was surrounded by a group of boys, who were leaning against the door frame and raising their eyebrows at him.

Today, Carter Xing wore a sports wristband on his hand, the color was the same as the wristband he gave to Ethan Ning.

Ren Meiyan saw Ethan Ning looking at him, then whistled. Carter Xing patted him on the back of his head: "Don't whistle!"

Carter Xing saw his brother stopped walking and continued to lean against the door to look at him. A group of boys nearby also looked over here, nodding and whispering hello: "Brother Xi, Brother Xi..."

At that time, Ethan Ning thought that if conditions permitted, Carter Xing would probably dare to move a soft chair in the middle, and give each of the younger brothers next to him a fan, and start fanning him as soon as he arrived at the door of the liberal arts class.

Carter Xing saw that his brothers beside him had greeted him, so he also called out, "Brother."

Ethan Ning nodded, quickly shifted his gaze, and continued walking towards the printing room in front.

As soon as he left, Carter Xing directed the group of boys to do what they should do. He also heard that the seniors had to come down to get their papers, so he simply stood at the back door and waited. Maybe he would actually meet his brother coming down.

I really wish the senior high school students would come to get their test papers every day.

At his age, he just wants to look awesome and cool in front of Ethan Ning at all times so that he can feel the passion in his heart.

As Ethan Ning walked, the second-year students in the corridor consciously gave way to the third-year students, and a few third-year students came one after another from behind.

After arriving at the printing room and receiving the test paper, Ethan Ning breathed a sigh of relief, finally not being stared at by so many people. He then recalled how Carter Xing had just stood at the back door with a cocky look on his face, greeting him.

Only Ethan Ning himself knew that the form paper in his hand was twisted by him and the corners were torn.

The first class bell rang, and Grace Ren and her group came out of the toilet to smoke, returned to the classroom, sat next to Carter Xing who hadn't gone, and gently pushed him: "Still miss your brother?"

Carter Xing was so worried that he put his chin on his arm and sighed on the table: "I think I was a little stupid just now."

Grace Ren tried to comfort him: "It's okay, it's okay, it's like this when you first fall in love."

Carter Xing nodded, flipped through the exercise book, and decided that he didn't want to do the homework for tonight. He turned his head to look at the camera, coughed, and whispered to Grace Ren, "I'm going to sleep for a while. Call me when Lao Zhang starts his lecture."

Grace Ren was very loyal: "No problem, go to sleep, brother!"

Carter Xing fell asleep with his eyes closed and a book covering his face.

He was woken up by Lao Zhang. Carter Xing woke up immediately from his doze and stood up quickly, looking energetic. The whole class was staring at him.

Old Zhang held the teaching stick and knocked on the desk in a stern voice: "Carter Xing, tell me, what is the answer to this question?"

Grace Ren, who had gone to bed five minutes later than him, also woke up with a start and started flipping through the book. The people sitting around them were all poor students and knew nothing about anything. But he had to ask first which page the book was on.

Old Zhang ignored Carter Xing standing there stupidly and watched Grace Ren turn the pages of the book, reminding her, "Page 21."

Grace Ren said "Oh" and hurried to look at one of their brothers who had excellent grades. The brother who was sitting in the front row also turned around, with an anxious expression on his face, and gestured towards Grace Ren frantically, making a "correct" gesture.

The front row and the back row of seats guarding the water dispenser were a thousand feet away, and Grace Ren couldn't see clearly. It was vague, and in a rush of excitement, she whispered to Carter Xing: "Choose C."

Carter Xing was not ambiguous at all: "Choose C!"

Lao Zhang was also unambiguous: "Carter Xing, this is a judgment question."

Who can I blame? I can only blame the "correct" gesture because it looks too much like the letter C from a distance.

As Carter Xing wished, several girls in the back row of Ethan Ning's class were missing out on their papers, so he ran to the printing room with the materials.

But it was not the end of get out of class time. Ethan Ning came down just halfway through the first class.

There should be no one in the corridor. He walked in a hurry, and before he had taken a few steps, he saw Carter Xing standing alone by the window of their class. He was tall and strong, with a math workbook in his hand, doing it by the window.

Carter Xing really didn't expect that Ethan Ning would suddenly come down that day, pass by for the second time, and see his embarrassing appearance.

This time he didn't take the initiative to greet Ethan Ning. He just stood there like a flagpole, hiding his math workbook behind him.

Carter Xing nodded with a serious expression.

Ethan Ning put his hands behind his back and stopped, just like a leader on an inspection tour.

Ethan Ning's eyes were sharp, and he looked from his feet to his head in a scrutinizing manner, and said lightly: "There was a fight."

Carter Xing tugged at the collar of his wrinkled jersey and immediately denied it: "No."

Ethan Ning added: "Puppy love."

Carter Xing glared: "Impossible!"

If someone wants to fall in love early, it should be with you. Forget about other girls and boys.

Ethan Ning glanced at the teacher who was giving a lecture in the classroom, and Grace Ren who had been secretly glancing at the window. He guessed something in his mind and sighed, "Listen to the class carefully. I'll go to the printing room first."

As soon as he left, Carter Xing took out his math workbook, leaned over the window to do it, and stared at Lao Zhang who was lecturing in the classroom. Suddenly, he felt that it was not so embarrassing.

Just because Ethan Ning was talking to him, Carter Xing wrote two pages in one breath without even looking at the formulas on the blackboard.

In the evening, Carter Xing waited for Ethan Ning to come home. The wind was even colder that night.

Throughout the entire second year of high school, Carter Xing was the only one wearing a short-sleeved shirt. He simply snatched the jacket from Grace Ren and kept it in his pocket until the end of the third year of high school.

Carter Xing twisted the school uniform into a strip, tied it around Ethan Ning's neck, and wiped his brother's smooth forehead: "It's cold outside."

Ethan Ning was indeed frozen, and even the desire to ride a bicycle was frozen.

He was carrying a school bag and had Carter Xing's clothes tied around his neck. He walked a few steps and saw Carter Xing's pale lips. He pulled the clothes off and threw them on his back: "You take it."

Carter Xing was startled by the shock: "I'm in good health..."

Ethan Ning shook out the school uniform, picked it up, and said coldly: "My health is not good? Put it on."

The person you like holds a piece of clothing and urges you to put it on quickly, or is it because he cares about you...

Carter Xing felt that even if Ethan Ning gave him a bikini today, he would have to wear it on the street.

He put on his school uniform and took the opportunity to grab Ethan Ning's hand and touch it. It felt very cold as soon as he held it.

Ethan Ning's ears turned red, and he was about to pull his hand back, but Carter Xing held it tightly and threatened him: "A man's cold hands indicate kidney yang deficiency and a weak heart. I'll buy you some Codonopsis pilosula to drink tomorrow..."

Ethan Ning didn't care whether to buy Codonopsis pilosula or not, but he now felt that judging from the speed of his heartbeat, it was unlikely that he would become weak.

Carter Xing rubbed Ethan Ning's palm and said: "My hands are so hot, which means I am special..."

Ethan Ning opened his mouth to stop his hooliganism: "Stop it."

Carter Xing shut up and carried his schoolbag to the front to block his and Ethan Ning's hands.

Two boys, wearing school uniforms, walked side by side on the streets of Chengdu in October, holding hands together, warm and warm...

The wind blows at night, no one can see it and no one can hear it.

Only Ethan Ning could hear his own slightly rapid breathing.

Similarly, only Carter Xing himself could see Ethan Ning's hand, which was intertwined with his own, in the schoolbag in front of him.

It’s good when the weather is cold, it’s suitable for holding hands.

It’s so hot, Carter Xing thought.

...

There were not many people in the senior high school liberal arts class during the break, and Ethan Ning picked up a pen and wrote.

After finishing the last geography question, Ethan Ning rubbed his slightly sore wrist, stood up, and prepared to collect the geography homework assigned during yesterday's evening study session.

There are still a few days left before the school sports meet. The senior year team has formed a team to play against the sophomores. The school team has been disbanded and all the teams are used to compete against each other.

There are still several months to go before the college entrance examination, and the school has also taken efficient learning into consideration, so it has decided to hold a three-day sports meet and give senior high school students one day off, which will be used for the students to participate in group events.

The school team will have training later this afternoon, and Ethan Ning also plans to go with them to run around, but he must not embarrass the senior class.

Although he is now unsure whether he can defeat Carter Xing, that guy is no longer as easy to deal with as he used to be, but with the addition of Hunter Ying, a draw should not be a problem.

Ethan Ning went to write the notice on the blackboard. Soon all the homework was handed in. He counted it twice, confirmed that it was correct, and then walked to the office with it.

He walked to the door of the senior three office and knocked. A teacher called out "Come in". Ethan Ning pushed the door open and went in. The teacher saw that it was him and said, "Your geography teacher has gone to the senior two office. It seems something happened."

The geography teacher in their grade is familiar with computers and is often called upon to help. He is also a warm-hearted person. Ethan Ning often encounters him not sitting in the office, which he thinks is normal.

He thanked him, a little looking forward to meeting Carter Xing again this time, and went downstairs to the second grade with a pile of homework.

Before he even reached the office door, he saw a large group of high school students gathered at the door. When they saw that it was him, they all made way for him, but they couldn't stop discussing.

A girl with pigtails spoke in a hoarse voice, loud enough for Ethan Ning to hear: "It's impossible. I really think she didn't find it herself. This kind of thing has never happened in Class 2-3 of Senior High School..."

A girl next to him said softly, "Don't worry, the teacher has already checked the surveillance, just take a look..."

Ethan Ning understood and thought that something might have fallen, so he went to the office to ask the teacher.

Class 3 of Senior 2, isn’t this Carter Xing’s class?

He knocked on the door and went in, and saw their geography teacher fiddling with the computer with a USB flash drive. He said he had gone to the Academic Affairs Office to ask someone to adjust the surveillance footage. He said that the student’s money loss was important, but the student’s moral issues were also important.

There were seven or eight teachers gathered in the office, as well as people from the Moral Education Department, and students who came to the office to see the teachers for something and did not leave. There were about ten people in the office, all crowded together, watching the fun.

A particularly gentle female teacher nearby comforted a sobbing girl: "If there is no surveillance video, then go back and look for it, okay?"

Ethan Ning's geography teacher, who was fiddling with the computer, asked while typing: "Are you sure you were not in the classroom only during the lunch break yesterday?"

The girl choked up and said, "Yes, yes..."

The geography teacher nodded: "Okay, let's adjust the lunch break time."

He entered the time, turned his head and saw Ethan Ning coming in, and hurriedly greeted: "Hey, Ethan Ning, are you here to hand in your homework?"

Ethan Ning nodded: "Hello, teacher."

The geography teacher said: "Okay, okay, put it here, I'm busy here..."

Ethan Ning put his homework on the empty table next to the geography teacher. Just as he was about to leave, he found himself being crowded in the crowd, facing the computer, and unable to squeeze out.

More than a dozen people gathered in front of the computer, staring at it intently.

Ethan Ning had no choice but to watch along with the crowd.

The surveillance footage showed that it was after school yesterday at noon, which was considered lunch time. Basically everyone had left and the lights in the classroom were turned off. However, because it was noon and the location of Class 2 and 3 of Senior High School had better lighting, the entire classroom was relatively bright and spacious.

There was no one in the picture, and one corner of the classroom curtain was rolled up.

At this time, the sound of a basketball hitting the ground came from the back door. First, a basketball came in, and it seemed that someone was entering the classroom.

All the people watching in front of the computer held their breath and became extremely nervous.

Ethan Ning also became nervous and stared at the computer screen.

The next second, a person jumped in from the back door of the classroom. That figure...

A female teacher pushed her glasses and said in surprise: "Isn't this Carter Xing?"

In the surveillance footage, Carter Xing just hit the ball in and put his foot on the basketball to stop it from rolling. With a towel draped over his shoulder, he swung it on the table, stood on tiptoe, and threw the tissue he used to wipe his sweat in a parabola, which hit the trash can steadily. It looked so cool.

Ethan Ning was a little speechless. So many people were watching Carter Xing showing off on the surveillance camera?

A student nearby saw someone following him into the classroom from the window and was very excited: "Look, there's another person coming!"

Everyone held their breath, their heads pressed together, as if they were watching a horror movie together, and they were almost suffocating their breathing.

A foot appeared at the back door in the picture, and then a girl with short hair came in. She was holding something behind her back, and walked in carefully, looking around...

Then she slowly walked behind Carter Xing, hesitantly, and patted his shoulder, but the surveillance camera could not see her expression clearly.

So, more than ten people in the high school office crowded in front of the computer and watched this girl block Carter Xing, a big boy of more than 1.8 meters tall, in his seat, and handed the red letter and a bottle of Coke that she was holding behind her to Carter Xing.

It seemed like he said something else, but unfortunately the surveillance camera couldn't hear the audio.

Carter Xing dodged and refused to take it. He retreated towards the door while pushing away the call. He grabbed the school uniform and tried to leave, but was blocked by the girl at the back door again.

The two of us, one blocking and one dodging, both left the surveillance area.

Ethan Ning: ...

other people:...

Everyone in the office who was watching the fun fell silent. The geography teacher paused and said seriously: "I didn't see anyone stealing money."

I didn't see anyone stealing the money, but there were so many people in the office today, including Ethan Ning, who was not afraid of the troubles of the world, who gathered together and watched Carter Xing being confessed to by a girl in the classroom like watching a horror movie.

What is going on?

Premature love is strictly prohibited.
