Chapter 161 Visiting Shen Xing

As a teacher, Tao Jing has seen divorced parents neglecting their children over the years, but she has never seen Shen Xing's parents so indifferent.

Shen Xing was indifferent to something as big as a car accident.

Both parents were indifferent. Shen Xing's father was only willing to contribute money, while Shen Xing's mother even felt that Tao Jing's phone calls disturbed her life.

Tao Jing frowned, and while she was angry, she was only slightly distressed.

 Even if Shen Xing is indifferent, he is still only a 16-year-old child, and he needs more care and comfort while lying on the hospital bed.

But his parents are both absent. Perhaps it is for this reason that Shen Xing constantly vents his loneliness by finding and changing girlfriends.

Tao Jing thought to herself, no matter what, as Shen Xing's class teacher, now that she knows about Shen Xing's family situation, she must not just sit idly by and ignore it. She must care more about Shen Xing in the future.

 Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong were on the sidelines and heard the entire process of Tao Jing's phone call, including what Shen Xing's parents said.

Pei Tiantian feels that Shen Xing is indeed quite pitiful. Logically speaking, Shen Xing, as a top student in the physics competition, is so outstanding that the parents of any ordinary family would not be proud of him?

However, the reality is that no matter how good or bad Shen Xing is, his parents are unwilling to give him a look. Is this a tragedy?

Tao Jing: "Since Shen Xing's parents don't want to see him, we have to organize our classmates to visit him together to prevent him from being too lonely in the hospital."

 Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong both nodded. They also had such a plan. They wanted to buy some gifts for Shen Xing on behalf of the class together with several class cadres to show their concern as classmates.

After Tao Jing returned to the classroom, she told her classmates about Shen Xing's car accident.

The students in the class were all shocked.

Although Shen Xing doesn't like to interact with people in the class on weekdays, and he always sits in a separate place and has never spoken to most of the people in the class.

But when the classmates in the class heard the news that he was injured and had a car accident, they all quickly asked if Shen Xing was okay and how was his injury?

Gu Rong then told them the details of Shen Xing's injury.

I learned that Shen Xing is now conscious and in stable condition. He only injured his neck and legs. He will have to stay in bed for several months before he can fully recover.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that their lives were not in danger. It was considered a blessing among misfortunes.

At the weekend, Tao Jing, Gu Rong and Pei Tiantian took several cadres from their class to the hospital to visit Shen Xing. They also used class fees to buy fruits, flowers and other things for Shen Xing.

Shen Xing's caregiver is a middle-aged man named Lao Song. He seems to be honest and courteous, and he takes good care of Shen Xing. Shen Xing's complexion looks much better these days.

Seeing Tao Jing and several classmates coming over, Lao Song poured water for them. Tao Jing smiled and said, "Thank you."

Several class cadres saw that Shen Xing could not move much on the bed because his neck was fixed and his legs were hung. They only looked at them with a pair of eyes.

Suddenly I felt that Shen Xing was so pitiful for having suffered such a big sin.

“Shen Xing, you must take good care of yourself. Your classmates are very concerned about you and are waiting for you to go back to class with us.”

“Shen Xing, if you are worried about where you have fallen behind in your homework, we will come over on weekends to help you make up for it.”

Looking at the concerned eyes of those people, Shen Xing said somewhat uncomfortably: "Thank you."

He didn't take the initiative to talk to these class cadres. He didn't expect these people to care about him so much.

It feels good to feel cared about by others.

Shen Xing was not a ungrateful person. He said, "When I am discharged from the hospital, if you don't understand anything about physics, you can ask me."

The class leaders were all pleasantly surprised.

Shen Xing's physics is not at the same level as theirs. Shen Xing himself has already completed three years of high school physics, and now the physics in his first year of high school is simply child's play for him.

If they could get tutoring from Shen Xing, they wouldn't have to learn physics so hard.

“Thank you Shen Xing.” Several people said in unison.

Shen Xing curled up his lips and said, "It's nothing, it's a small matter."

Seeing that Shen Xing got along well with the class cadres, Tao Jing also felt a little relieved in her eyes.

She naturally hopes that Shen Xing can integrate into the class and not be a lone ranger like before.

After Shen Xing finished reading, the class cadres left the ward first, leaving only Tao Jing, Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong.

Tao Jing said to Shen Xing: "Shen Xing, there is something the teacher wants to tell you. Please don't blame the teacher for being troublesome. In fact, on the day he learned that you had a car accident, the teacher called your parents and told them your Condition."

When Shen Xing heard this, his face was stunned for a moment.

Pei Tiantian didn't know if she was overthinking it or something, but she actually saw a bit of Qi Yi in Shen Xing's eyes.

“Then what did they say?”

Tao Jing pondered for a moment: "They... didn't say anything."

Shen Xing had a self-deprecating look on his face: "Well, it doesn't seem to be a surprise. I'm just a burden to them anyway."

Tao Jing: "Shen Xing, don't say that. You are not a burden."

“Teacher Tao, thank you for your comfort, but I’m used to it, so it’s okay.”

Shen Xing had a calm expression on his face.

Although his parents are still alive, after graduating from elementary school, his parents broke up and started their own families within half a year.

He is like an orphan with no one to take care of him.

Shen Xing used to long for the care of his parents. He always thought that as long as he became better, his parents might take another look at him.

But later he realized how stupid his idea was, and he stopped struggling.

It’s up to you, do as you like.

Shen Xing chose to let himself go completely. As long as it was a girl who confessed to him or anyone he liked, he would accept them all.

Anyway, no one cares about him, and no one cares about him. He can do whatever he wants.

Tao Jing said seriously: "Shen Xing, you are definitely not a so-called burden. In the teacher's heart, you have always been a very good student, no matter what your parents' private life is like? You are an independent individual, so the teacher I hope you won’t affect your own life for the sake of someone who doesn’t love you.”

Shen Xing pursed his lips. He could tell that what Tao Jing said was heartbreaking, "Teacher Tao, I understand what you mean."

Tao Jing smiled helplessly: "I might as well tell you that my relationship with my parents is not good either. My parents wanted to force me to marry a stranger, so I ran away from home and haven't been home for three or four years. Even if I go, they haven’t come to see me, maybe they don’t want to recognize me anymore.”
