When Deng Fan heard this, he gently held Tang Xin's soft little hand and said: "Just imagine yourself as having a vacation in a foreign country. Don't think about anything else." He tried his best to avoid the word "afraid" because if he were to mention it repeatedly, even if he were to tell the other party to "not be afraid", it would only increase the psychological burden on the other party from a psychological perspective.
Hearing Deng Fan's words, Tang Xin was indeed not as afraid anymore. Instead, she became a little shy and slowly retracted her hand, bowing her head as she said, "I … "I understand."
"Miss Tang, you remind me of a person." Deng Fan suddenly said.
"Ai?" Tang Xin raised her head in shock and blinked her eyes at Deng Fan.
Deng Fan quietly looked at Tang Xin for a while, then slowly said: "That person is my female disciple, when we first met, she was around the same age as you, and was also a high school girl."
"You actually have a disciple?" Tang Xin was very surprised.
Deng Fan nodded, and said: "She's just a disciple, but in truth, I didn't really teach her anything, I'm just giving her a name. Her name is Su Xiaobei, and she should be two or three years older than you! "
"Then she should have gone to college by now, right?" Tang Xin asked matter-of-factly.
Deng Fan shook his head and said, "No, she's already married."
"Nodding..." "Married?" Tang Xin's eyes widened, and she said in disbelief, "So young … "Married?"
"That's right, everyone has different fates. The reason why she married so early is also because of fate." Deng Fan sighed.
"Do you think I'm very similar to her?" Tang Xin gently probed.
"No, to be exact, you are two people with completely opposite personalities." Deng Fan said.
"Yes …" "Is that so?"
"That disciple of mine was very lively and was naturally martial, while you are very gentle and calm. You are the typical image of a lady from a noble family." Deng Fan said, "But there is one thing in common, you are all beauties." He even smiled at Tang Xin sunnily.
Hearing Deng Fan's praise, Tang Xin was both happy and shy. She then lowered her head and said softly, "Your disciple should be a great beauty, right? I don't think I look as good as her. "
"It can only be said that the difference between a rose and a peony is like the difference between a rose and a peony. Deng Fan said.
"Don't praise me anymore …" Tang Xin said softly. Her tender cheeks really were the color of a fiery red rose.
"Well, you don't seem to be used to praise." Deng Fan said disappointedly, "But I believe that I am definitely not the first to praise you as a beauty right?"
Tang Xin was silent for a while, before she said in a low voice, "I … I don't know what to say. "
"You can say whatever you want. There's only the two of us here, what else can't you say?" Deng Fan said.
Tang Xin heard this and fell silent, then asked gently: "Big brother Deng …. Can I ask you a question? "
"Of course."
With Deng Fan's consent, Tang Xin suddenly seemed to become speechless, and became silent again.
Deng Fan did not rush her, and only waited quietly for her to speak.
After a little more, Tang Xin finally opened her mouth slightly. Her voice was similarly soft, like the chirping of a bird, "I want to know if you're married or not."
Deng Fan did not expect Tang Xin to ask such a question. After hearing it for a while, he curiously asked: "Why do you ask like that?"
Tang Xin immediately said in embarrassment: "I know this question is strange too, you … "Just treat it as if I didn't ask …"
Deng Fan laughed and said: "It's alright, this is not some secret, I can tell you clearly, I have always been single."
Tang Xin then asked softly, "Then, do you have any experience with love for the first time?"
"First love?" Deng Fan opened his eyes wide, "Did you fall in love with a boy at school and want me to help? "Then you're looking for the right person. Although I'm single, I'm also a love killer and can be a love counselor."
"No, I don't like anyone. I was just curious to ask …" Tang Xin said.
"Oh, just like that …" Deng Fan seemed to not believe him and continued to speak: "Since you ask, I'll tell you about my first love."
"Really …" "Can I?" Tang Xin raised her head and asked.
"This is already an old story, it's not a secret." Deng Fan said, "That started when I was in school. At that time, I was also a high school student …"
Deng Fan's first love for a girl called Lei Xiang. At that time, Deng Fan was still a high school student, but Lei Xiangxiang had transferred here midway. It was also because of Lei Xiangxiang that Deng Fan had truly embarked on a arduous road of martial arts cultivation.
Lei Xiang was a natural beauty. Not only was she beautiful, but she also developed very well. Even though she was still a high school student, her breasts and buttocks were very well-developed. A girl with an outstanding appearance like her would always attract the gazes of many people from the opposite sex, just like honey that would attract bees. Deng Fan, who was in his prime, was no exception.
Coincidentally, Lei Xiang was sitting next to Deng Fan. Ever since Lei Xiangxiang came, Deng Fan had almost never seriously listened to any of the classes. In the middle of the class, more than half of his time was spent secretly watching Lei Xiang. Looking at the beautiful side of Lei Xiang's face and the soft curves of her body, Deng Fan couldn't calm down at all. He even tried his hardest to react to it, because that girl was too beautiful.
However, Deng Fan could only secretly love Lei Xiang Xiang, he did not dare approach her, and did not even dare speak to her, because the difference in their family situation was too great, Deng Fan felt that he and Lei Xiang Xiang were people from two different worlds.
At that time, Deng Fan's family was in a rather difficult situation, and the only person who took care of him since he was young was his master. Deng Fan's master was an old man surnamed Huo. He had received the favor of Deng Fan's family before, so he accepted Deng Fan as his disciple and took care of him as he grew up. However, Deng Fan was not willing to practice martial arts at the beginning, he had only learned a few mental cultivation methods from his master, and since young, he has been immune to poisons, but no matter what, he was not willing to practice martial arts. Every time his master demonstrated a set of martial arts, Deng Fan would learn it very quickly. However, he didn't follow his master's instructions and practised it diligently. He believed that as long as he was healthy, it would be fine. In any case, he would not cause trouble, and no one else would cause trouble for him. His dream was to work in literature, so he loved to read books, especially detective stories.
One day, during his physical education lessons, Deng Fan overheard a few bad students discussing and learned that they were going to do some bad things to Lei Xiang. He had originally planned to use this matter as a reason to find Lei Xiangxiang and strike up a conversation. He had planned to tell her about this news and make her be more careful. He thought that if he saved Lei Xiang from this bad student of his, he would definitely win her favor. Therefore, he made up his mind. He decided to secretly follow Lei Xiang tonight to protect her safety.
There was a remote alley near the school, which was also the only way for Lei Xiang to go home.
It was already late in the night, and just as Lei Xiang was about to go out and cultivate, three men wearing black headgear suddenly surrounded them from behind as they passed by this alley.
These three men were all students of the Thunder Fragrance class. Because they wore hoods, Lei Xiang didn't recognize them.
"What are you guys doing?" Lei Xiang swept her eyes over the three of them, seemingly very calm.
"We just want to play with you." One of the men said in a deep voice.
"Actually, I just want to massage you. I also want to massage your chest a little bigger, hehe!" The other man deliberately changed his voice. As he spoke, he reached out his hands to grab Lei Xiang's chest.
Lei Xiang's hands moved quickly. She raised her hands and immediately pushed away the two hands that wanted to invade her. She glared angrily at the man and said, "You despicable scum!"
"Don't be so stingy, you won't get pregnant even if you touch her." The man snickered and stretched out his Demon Claw towards Lei Xiang.
"Stop!" Suddenly, he heard a shout. Deng Fan had arrived.
This voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Stop teasing women, hurry up and go home!" Deng Fan pointed at the three men with one hand on his waist and the other at his waist as he spoke sternly.
"Don't meddle in other people's business. Scram, or I'll beat you up!" A man said to Deng Fan fiercely.
Of course Deng Fan would not easily retreat, after all he could not lose face in front of the goddess, so he mustered up his courage and walked forward: "It's your turn to f * ck off, if you want to fight, I can only accompany you!" He was confident that even though he hadn't studied martial arts seriously, he would still be able to deal with three men around his age.
"Looks like your skin is really itchy." A man clenched his fist and walked towards Deng Fan.
"I'll do it!" Deng Fan suddenly let out a strange cry. His fist landed on the forehead of the man who was walking towards him, and actually knocked him down to the ground.
Everyone present was stunned.
Deng Fan succeeded with one strike, and suddenly felt a little pleased with himself. He then beckoned to the three men: "If you don't know how easy it is to fight, then just come at me!"
With his provocation, the three men launched their full firepower at him.
It was said that two fists could not even fight four hands, not to mention six hands plus three legs.
Very quickly, Deng Fan was unable to resist, after taking so many punches and kicks, he was beaten to the ground without being able to retaliate at all.
Deng Fan held his head with both hands and was kicked everywhere. Just as he was groaning in pain, he suddenly felt like the attacks had stopped, and after a while, he heard a miserable scream, and raised his head in shock.
At this time, a man had already fallen at Lei Xiang's feet, moaning in pain. It was obvious that he had been severely injured. So it turns out that Lei Xiang Xiang was actually a hidden martial arts expert, she had easily defeated all three men, her moves were soft and forceful, her raising of her hand and raising of her foot was extremely impressive, causing Deng Fan to stare blankly, he had long forgotten about the pain on his body.
"Are you all right?" Lei Xiang Xiang reached out to Deng Fan who was lying on the ground.
Deng Fan suddenly regained his senses, and without any help from Lei Xiang, he quickly crawled up from the ground, and awkwardly laughed: "It's fine, how could I be alright? It's just that I'm feeling a little sore all over, so I'll be fine after I go home and take a nap. " In front of the goddess, no one wanted to show any signs of weakness, and it was the same for Deng Fan.
"Next time, don't try to be a hero again. You won't always be so lucky." "But I still have to thank you." With that, he smiled at Deng Fan, then turned and left.
Deng Fan foolishly looked in the direction that Lei Xiangxiang disappeared in, feeling mixed emotions in his heart. After that, he made up his mind to train in martial arts, and trained for more than ten years, day after day, year after year.
Hearing that, Tang Xin could not help but ask: "What happened next? Have you and Xiang Xiang developed any further? "
Deng Fan said: "Xiang Xiang is my first love, but it has always been a one-sided crush of mine. The end of the story isn't as beautiful as a fairy tale, or perhaps there simply isn't an end to it. "After that, for some reason, Xiang Xiang was transferred to another school. We haven't even known each other for three months, and I haven't seen her since."
"But she changed your life, didn't she?" Tang Xin said.
"Indeed, I only embarked on the long road of martial arts because of her. If not for her appearance, I might still be a weak scholar." Deng Fan said meaningfully, "I believe she is also a woman with many stories. She really wants to know more about her, just that I don't know if I will ever have the chance to see her again."
After Tang Xin heard this, she lowered her head and did not say a word, as though she was lost in thought.
Deng Fan brought Tang Xin and wandered around for a long time. Unexpectedly, the sky turned dark and it was time for them to eat dinner again.
When night fell, the two returned to their hotel.
Deng Fan thought that he couldn't go on like this, so he decided to start heading towards the tallest building tomorrow. Even if there were many dangers ahead waiting for him, it would be better than waiting for his death here. There is a saying that the greatest threat is not danger, but safety. People often have to survive in dangerous situations, and if they don't take risks, they won't gain anything. As long as they bravely take a step forward, they might be able to see the light in the future.
As the night grew darker, before going to sleep, Deng Fan continued to narrate the story of Li Xiaolong's legendary life in the Dragon Gate at Tang Xin's request.
