A single moment of the Spring Lantern Festival was worth a thousand gold.

Deng Fan would never be able to forget that night when he was passionately entangled with Wang Xinyu.

However, beautiful things are always very short, just like a flash in the pan, a flash in the air, can't stay even if you want to.

Deng Fan had the chance to keep Wang Xinyu here, if he had noticed her abnormality earlier.

Unfortunately, he still could not understand Wang Xinyu's heart, so when he woke up, he was shocked to find that Wang Xinyu was no longer by her pillow.

At first, Deng Fan thought that Wang Xinyu had only gone to the toilet and was at least still staying in this room. However, he quickly realised his mistake, because he saw a letter placed on the table beside the bed.

Deng Fan immediately had a bad premonition, he anxiously sat up on the bed and picked up the letter, which was written in black and white, it was clearly Wang Xinyu's handwriting, and it read as follows:

When you read this letter, I must have been gone.

Don't try to find me, because I've gone to a place far away where you'll never be able to catch me.

Thank you very much for your constant company these days. I am an ominous person who could die at any time. I should not have had love, but I was fortunate enough to meet you. You were my first man, and it was you who made me experience the magic of love.

These days, I feel that my heart has been gradually captured by you, that feeling is very subtle, and also very beautiful. We climbed mountains together, rowed boats together, flew kites together, rode horses together and watched the sunrise at sea together... These unforgettable memories have already taken root in my heart, whether the sun and moon change, sea dry stone, I will not forget. You're right. I don't care for eternity, I only care about the past. Thank you for bringing me these beautiful memories. In my limited life, I was content to have a man who loved me.

To be honest, from the first time I saw you, I thought you were a little rascal, but then I gradually discovered that you had many qualities that other men didn't have. You're not a pervert, you're a bloodthirsty wolf, you're righteous, you're broad-minded, you're passionate, and that's what you're all about. Of course, you are not a perfect man, and you have your own shortcomings. However, compared to your strengths, it could be said that you are in the wrong.

I know you love me, you even risk your life to feed me medicine, but you don't have to worry too much. Before the virus attacks, my saliva should be non-toxic. However, I know that our time together will not come to an end. Rather than two people facing a tragedy together, why don't I face it alone? I am a woman with no future, and you have no future, so I am not worthy of your love. The ring on the letter is a talisman you gave me, and I'm returning it to you. I hope you can find someone more suitable to wear it than I can.

Finally, let me remind you once again, don't try to find me. If you have time, why not help some people who you need help with. You belong to everyone's Deng Fan, and not to me alone.

— — Love, Wang Xinyu

The article ended there, and the entire text was written in neat writing pen. The last few lines were a little blurry, as though the tears that had dripped from Wang Xinyu's eyes had melted the ink.

After reading the letter, Deng Fan could no longer remain calm. He hurriedly put on his clothes and left the room.

He held the gem ring tightly, after all it was the only thing that Wang Xinyu had left behind, as long as the ring was still there, it would at least give him some comfort.

The Dragon Gate was not big, but it was not realistic to search through every corner within a day, so Deng Fan only picked those places that he and Wang Xinyu had visited before. The results were as expected. After a day, he did not find a single trace of Wang Xinyu's whereabouts, not even a single trace of him.

Deng Fan also knew that this was unnecessary, because if a person deliberately avoided it, no matter how hard you tried, you wouldn't be able to find it. Moreover, Wang Xinyu might have already left the Dragon Gate long ago, or even the human world. Deng Fan was not willing to accept this, and was even more unwilling to believe that Wang Xinyu had already died. Therefore, he would continue to look for him, even if he had to go to the ends of the earth.

It was inevitable that people would experience some bad things, and even encounter a calamity. However, regardless of the fate of the individual, the world would still function, and it would not stop because of someone's tragedy.

Ever since Deng Fan left Wen Du, the wonton shop managed by the Wu brothers was still in operation.

The owner of this small restaurant was actually Deng Fan, although he had never gotten a piece of the cake.

It was late at night, and the wonton shop was about to close.

"People like the boss are real men, fighting the whole government for a woman." Wu Da said as he cleaned up the shop.

"Isn't it? The government had sent out so many troops, yet they hadn't been able to catch him. The boss is truly unfathomable! " Wu Er also agreed.

When Wu San heard this, he could not help but ask: "I wonder what Miss Wang has done to make the government apprehend her?"

"In any case, something big must have happened. Otherwise, they wouldn't have rallied the masses and imposed martial law on the entire city. Back then, when we surrounded the terrorist leader, the massacre of the city wasn't that big of a sensation." Wu Da said.

"Didn't we capture that city?" Wu Er said, "Isn't it our boss who captured him?"

"Yes." Wu Da nodded, "This is no longer a secret, I think even the children on the streets know about it."

When Wu Er heard this, he sighed and said: "I don't think boss will come back in the future."

"No matter where he goes, I believe he will be respected." Wu Da said.

"That's right, our boss has given us a chance to start anew. Otherwise, we brothers might be in jail right now, eating a meal together." Old Second said.

Just as he was speaking, a man in black suddenly floated in from outside. He didn't make any sound of footsteps, as if a ghost without legs appeared in the shop.

The man had long hair that fell over his shoulders, and he wore a tall hat, also black, which had been pushed down over half his face.

"We've closed for the night. Come back tomorrow!" Wu San was the first to discover the black-clothed person. He thought that the black-clothed person was a guest, so he slowly walked towards him and said.

"Where's Deng Fan?" The man in black put his hands in the pockets of his jacket and asked faintly.

"What did you say?" Wu San didn't hear it clearly and thought he heard wrong.

"Where's Deng Fan?" The man in black raised his voice again.

This time, the three Wu brothers heard it loud and clear.

But no one answered, because they did not know, and even if they did, they would not tell.

Wu Da felt that something was wrong, and slowly walked closer to the black clothed man. He sized him up, and warily asked: "Who are you? Why do you ask? "

"You don't have to know who I am." The black clothed man said coldly, "As long as you tell me where Deng Fan is, this money will be yours." After saying that, he fished out a stack of bills from his left pocket. It was actually all in United States dollars, at least a hundred thousand!

Wu Da had always been open-minded towards money, but this time, he only took a quick glance at the stack of bills and said: "I don't know."

"Do you really not know or are you unwilling to tell?" the man in black asked.

"I don't know, I just don't know." Wu Da pushed the money back to the black-clothed man and said: "Even if I knew, I wouldn't sell my boss out."

"It seems like you really do not know." "If that's the case, then there's no use in keeping him."

"What do you mean?" Wu Da's eyes suddenly revealed a murderous look, staring at the black-clothed man: "You want to scare me? I'm scared! If you don't leave now, I'll break your legs! "

The man in black stretched out his right hand without a word. There was a gun in his hand. It was the same pistol with a silencer.

When the three Wu brothers saw that the man in black had taken out his gun, they were immediately stupefied. The first thing they thought of was to run for their lives, not to fight for their lives.

Wu Da and Wu San were the closest to the black-clothed person, and they were most likely to subdue the black-clothed person.

But they were still not as fast as guns.

In the blink of an eye, the black clothed man had released two shots, hitting Wu Da and Wu San respectively.

The faces of the two brothers immediately contorted in pain, and in a short while, they collapsed.

Seeing that the situation wasn't good, the remaining Wu Er wanted to escape, but he was half a beat too slow. In the end, before he could step out of the door, he was shot down by the black clothed man.

After getting rid of the three Wu brothers, the man in black calmly put the money and the gun back into his pocket. He looked at the three corpses with disdain and then walked out. From killing to leaving, his actions were decisive and swift. It was obvious that this was not the first time he had done this, but rather an experienced veteran.

Because it was late at night and there weren't many pedestrians on the street, coupled with the fact that the iron gate of the wonton shop was already half-closed, no one had seen the entire process of the black-clothed man escaping. Even if they had seen him, no one would have recognized his appearance.

Life always has many variables, but what has happened can no longer be reversed, so life does not have so many ifs.

If Su Xiaobei had not stolen her phone when she took the subway home that night, if Wang Xinyu had already left her a sum of money, she wouldn't have to worry about her mother's medical fees.

Because her phone was lost, Su Xiaobei had never memorized Deng Fan's phone number, so she was unable to contact Deng Fan, and naturally, Deng Fan was also unable to contact him.

Everything had happened, everything had become reality, and everything could no longer be returned to normal.

Therefore, Su Xiaobei could only rely on herself.

In order to raise the money for her mother's surgery, she had no choice but to drop out of school. Following the ancients' example, she put up a sign to sell her body to save her mother.

The sign said: urgently request 500,000 to treat mother's illness, hope rich people to help, my daughter is willing to do a big favor to repay.

Su Xiaobei was kneeling beside the signboard, her head slightly bent, her face still as charming as before, as if there was a layer of death on it.

This was not strange. After all, a woman who had fallen to selling herself on the street, no matter how well she used to be, no matter how optimistic she was, her face would still lose its luster.

Because it was daytime, there were quite a few people walking on this street, so very quickly, there was a group of people surrounding Su Xiaobei. Some of them were pointing and pointing at Su Xiaobei, some were whispering to each other, and some were even shaking their heads and sighing.

"She's so young and she looks so much like one. It's a pity she's in such dire straits." Someone said so.

"She should still be a student, right? No other family members at home? Why did you sell yourself to save your mother? "

"She really is a filial son. It's a pity that I don't have any money, or else I would have helped her." Someone shook his head and sighed.

"From the looks of her, she isn't a swindler, right?" Doubt was also expressed.

In short, everyone had their own opinions, and most of them were just here to watch the show. No one stood up to lend a helping hand to Su Xiaobei.
