Chapter 1259 - 1259 I Seem to Like You
1259 I Seem to Like You
The clash was actually a fight between them. In less than two minutes, Deng Fan lost to Xia He. How could an amateur like him defeat a professional like Xia He?
Xia He told Deng Fan to disband his so-called “hooligan team”, to study hard and not to do such useless things again.
Perhaps that was the moment when Deng Fan fell in love with Xia He.
Xia He only entered the same high school later on. It was Xu Lan who specially transferred her there from the military school so that she could focus on learning to dance. Everyone was curious about Xia He’s background at that time.
Deng Fan was no exception. Given the earlier incident, he began to wonder why this transfer student was so arrogant and how a girl could be so capable. There were too many enigmatic points about Xia He and he started to check on her background bit by bit, not expecting to become so engrossed in the end.
As it was getting late, Deng Fan sent Xia He home. Neither of them wanted to drive. The two-kilometer journey was not an issue for them.
People who were in love indeed tended to lose their heads. In the past, Xia He would never have walked two kilometers home on foot. That was like a nightmare to her! She would get the chauffeur to pick her up rather than walk home.
However, when she was with Deng Fan, she always wished that time would pass slower so that the two of them could spend more time together.
“What did my mother tell you? I hope she didn’t say a lot of weird things,” Deng Fan said fearfully.
“Let me think… Oh! I can’t remember!” Xia He said playfully.
Deng Fan could easily guess what Jiang Shu had done. He felt a little flustered and wondered if Xia He would still want to be friends with him after knowing about those things he did in the past. He wondered if she would think that he was a “pervert” and hoped that they could at least still be able to maintain their current relationship.
Xia He could tell that Deng Fan was worried. She did not intend to say too much to him. To her, there was no such thing as a girl taking the initiative to confess her feelings! That would be too unromantic!
However, Deng Fan had held a torch for her for so many years. Even in those days when he could not see her at all, he still loved her deeply. Although they did not have any chance to interact at all, he still took the effort to accompany her silently.
Even if she said something… it was not any loss to her!
“Stop right there!” Xia He said while blushing.
Deng Fan stood opposite Xia He and asked, “Are you unable to walk anymore? Do you want me to carry you on my back? We’re about to reach your house. I’ll carry you for a while.”
Xia He nodded slightly. Deng Fan turned his back to Xia He and slowly squatted down. Xia He carefully climbed up on Deng Fan’s back. As she had undergone physical training for a long time, she was definitely not as slender as other girls and she had muscles all over. She hoped she was not too heavy for Deng Fan…
She did not expect Deng Fan to be so strong even though he looked thin and weak. He carried Xia He on his back easily and he continued to breathe easily.
Xia He silently buried her head in Deng Fan’s shoulder and whispered, “I… I realize I seem to like you a little bit…”
Deng Fan stopped in his tracks. He stood rooted to the ground and did not know what to say. He wanted to put Xia He down and look into her eyes to check if she was telling the truth and whether he had heard wrongly just now.
“Why… why aren’t you moving…” Xia He said.
“I’m just too agitated and don’t know what to say. Are you speaking the truth just now? I hope it’s not because of my mother. If what my mother said to you today makes you feel pressured, don’t take it to heart. She’s just worried about me,” Deng Fan asked worriedly.
“I’m telling the truth. I’ve been thinking about it for a long time, but this doesn’t mean that I’ve accepted you! I just… just like you a little but… not that much!” Xia He’s words did not make sense. Deng Fan smiled faintly and listened quietly as Xia He continued to quibble.
The streetlights shone on them and made long shadows. It was anyone’s guess if their future path would be as long.
Ma San waited for an entire day but Qian’e still did not wake up, so he had been throwing a tantrum at Chu Ju the whole day. One moment, he wanted to eat watermelons which were only available in summer and the next moment, he wanted chicken soup. Moreover, he wanted to drink it immediately and did not want to wait for even one minute.
“Try this! I just bought this soup. See if it suits your taste!” Chu Ju asked eagerly as she held a bowl of chicken soup.
