Chapter 9: The Noble and the Witch

  "Haha, I'm so excited today, Lin Jianren's face is really too colorful, it's almost turned green."

  Walking out of Wanhualou, Tang Long's laughter still couldn't stop.

  "Second Master, when did you become so eloquent? I really underestimated you before." Tang Long stared at Xiao Fan, feeling more and more unable to understand him.

  After hearing Tang Long's words, Xiao Fan was shocked in his heart and secretly thought that his performance was still a bit too much. If someone saw through it, it wouldn't be good. Fortunately, Tang Baozi didn't suspect anything. As he thought about this, he intentionally revealed a proud expression on his face: "This? Actually, I, young master, have been well-read in poetry and books since childhood, with a belly full of talent, but just haven't had the opportunity to show it off yet."

  "What's up, Second Master? From young to old, you've probably beaten up fifteen old men and kicked over twenty book boys. Those old men still hate you to death now. Are you sure that you really studied poetry and books from a young age?" Tang Pangzi ruthlessly pointed out one by one the things Xiao Fan did when he was young. The two had known each other since childhood, and Tang Pangzi still remembered many of Xiao Fan's deeds clearly.

  "Haha, those old men are just ignorant, they can't even be my teacher." Xiao Fan opened his eyes and spoke nonsense, without even blushing, thinking to himself that his past self was indeed glorious, having even driven away over a dozen teachers.

  Xiang Rong covered her mouth and giggled softly, but didn't dare laugh out loud. Her little maid, Lü Er, was holding back laughter with a bright red face.

  "Hmph... Haha, Xiao Fan, you're really shameless." Only the little demon queen Wang Yu Yan would dare to say this to Xiao Fan.

  At this moment, the little witch pointed at Xiao Fang with one hand and held her belly with the other, laughing exaggeratedly.

  "Stop laughing, hurry back, or Master Wang will worry about you." Seeing everyone laughing, even Xiao Fang's thick skin couldn't help but blush, and he quickly changed the subject.

  "Otherwise, I wouldn't have come back so soon. I'm hungry, take me to eat something delicious." The little witch hummed, she was having so much fun, how could she possibly go back now.

  "This isn't good, is it? Although you're having fun, Master Wang is waiting for you at home. If he can't wait for you, he'll worry. I think you should hurry back and have dinner with your uncle." Xiao Fan persuaded her with a bitter tone, and even called out "girl" in the process.

  Tang Baozi was shocked to hear Xiao Fan directly call the little demon girl "Ya Tou", and his mouth opened wide in surprise, staring at Xiao Fan with a dumbfounded expression, secretly giving him a thumbs up.

  "I'm in awe, truly in awe," Tang Baozi thought to himself, his admiration for Xiao Fan knew no bounds. He felt that at this moment, Xiao Fan was like a towering mountain, inspiring reverence and awe, with an aura that was unmatched; Who was the little demon girl? She was the number one demon girl of Xuan Shan City, the bane of the city's young masters. Which of them dared to call her that? None had before, and probably none would in the future either. But Xiao Fan did, and he said it with such ease.

  "Mind your own business." The little witch waved her fist at Xiao Fang and hummed, "And don't call me 'little girl', you're not older than me, or else I'll beat you up." As she spoke, she also made a threatening gesture of hitting him.

  "Is Wang Da Shi your grandfather?" Xiao Fan suddenly asked with a serious face.

  "It's common sense, everyone knows that." Little witch was puzzled and didn't understand why Xiao Fan asked this, feeling that Xiao Fan had some ulterior motive.

  "This is right, Master Wang and my father are old friends for many years. I call Master Wang 'Uncle', and you are Master Wang's granddaughter, hehe, this generation gap, no need to say more." Xiao Fan said with a smile, that complacent look, according to this ranking of generations, the little demon girl would become his junior.

  Tang Long's admiration for Xiao Fan was like a boundless river, endless and infinite. He almost prostrated himself before Xiao Fan, thinking to himself: "The second young master is truly exceptional, actually wanting to be the elder of the little demon girl. It's really a bit reckless." He thought that Xiao Fan was truly fearless, daring to take advantage of the little demon girl. Probably among all the young masters in Xuan Mountain City, only Xiao Fan dared to do such a thing.

  "You'd better not bring up the issue of seniority again, or I'll hit you." The little demon girl was also stunned by what she heard. This guy was really too shameless, how could there be such a shameless person in this world? His shamelessness had reached an unprecedented level, he could actually distort facts, turn right and wrong upside down, say black is white, and say the dead are alive, it's really too shameless.

  The little witch was clever and intelligent, but after all, she had limited experience. The young girl's thoughts were simple, how could she be a match for Xiao Fang? She could only wave her fist to boost her own morale.

  "Never mind, never mind, okay, okay, let's go, young lady. I'll take you to eat something delicious, haha."

  Xiao Fang Sheng feared that if he continued to entangle himself, the little demon would really take action, so he wisely shifted the topic and led the way forward.

  "Don't call me little girl..." The little witch chased after him, her discontented voice still carrying over.

  Behind them, Tang Long, Shen Xiangru and the little maid Green were staring at the two of them with their eyes wide open. They seemed to have figured it out - the little demon had fallen into the trap set by Xiao Fan in terms of words, although she had bridged the gap between their ranks, but instead, let Xiao Fan call her "girl", as if this was Xiao Fan's purpose from the very beginning.

  "How come I didn't know that Second Master was so clever?" Tang Baozi muttered to himself with a gloomy face as he followed behind.

  Shen Xiangruo and the little maid, Lü'er, followed behind. Shen Xiangruo's face was veiled with a light gauze, under which her expression was complex, as she watched Xiao Fang playing with the little demon in front of her. In her heart, she whispered: "I really don't know what kind of person he is. The number one young master of Xuanshan City, he actually deceived the entire city. If he's the number one young master, then what about those so-called Lin Jianren and other young masters?"

  Although she had never met Xiao Fan before, during her time in Xuan Shan City, Shen Xiang Rou had also heard a lot about Xiao Fan, the "number one young master" of Xuan Shan City. She thought that as the number one young master, Xiao Fan would be like other young masters who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, bullying the weak. But unexpectedly, Xiao Fan turned out to be low-key and different from what people had said about him.

  "Miss, is Xiao Ershao really the number one young master of Xuan Shan City? I feel like he's more like a clever and resourceful young talent." Green, the little maid, expressed her doubts. Although she had just met Xiao Fan, from the fact that he was able to come up with a couplet earlier, set a trap for Lin Jianren to fall into, and then outsmarted the little demon girl in conversation, it was clear that Xiao Fan was a talented, intelligent, and handsome young man who didn't match the rumors at all.

  "Don't talk nonsense. No matter how others see Xiao Erlang, he is our benefactor who saved our lives. In our hearts, we can only respect him, understand?" Shen Xiangru said softly.

  "Uh-huh, yes, Lu'er understands." Little maid Lu'er nodded her head.

  Tang Baozi walked ahead, listening to the conversation between the two, a smile appeared on his face, and he whispered: "Second Young Master, it seems that your heroic rescue of the beauty has achieved its purpose, an absolute beauty is about to fall in love."

  In Tang Baozi's heart, Xiao Fan helped Shen Xiangru's purpose was naturally a hero saving beauty, letting the beauty return to her senses.

  "Wow, Second Young Master is really something else. Within a day, he not only hooked up with the little witch, but also got an absolute beauty to fall for him, and even managed to swindle Lin Jianren. He's simply amazing." At this moment, Tang Pangzi couldn't help but admire Xiao Fan.

  All the way, Xiao Fang and Little Magic Girl were running in front, constantly arguing, while Tang Long and Shen Xiang Rou followed closely behind.

  When they arrived at the most luxurious wine tower in Xuanshan City, the little demon girl had a pair of small white hands full of food, her left hand holding two or three strings of roasted meat, and her right hand holding an iced sugar gourd. Her mouth was full of oil stains, and her face wore a happy smile, just like a neighbor's little girl.

  Xiao Fan's two hands were also filled with some things that the little witch wanted, and he couldn't help but smile as he looked at the little witch laughing like a little girl.

  "Boss, bring out all the good dishes quickly!" Tang Baozi shouted loudly as soon as he entered the wine house, his voice echoing throughout the entire building.

  "It turned out to be Young Master Tang and Xiao Er Shao, I've met the two young masters before." The owner of this most luxurious wine tower in Xuan Shan City was not unfamiliar with Xiao Fan and Tang Long, these two big rich kids.

  Xiao Fan and Tang Baozi, when they went out to eat, naturally chose the best wine house. So, this wine house became their frequent haunt. Moreover, most importantly, these two young masters never brought money when they went out.

  They didn't pay for their meal, and when the boss found out who they were, he didn't dare show any dissatisfaction. Instead, he nodded and bowed as he sent them off, afraid that if he accidentally offended these two young masters, his wine shop would be finished.

  Later, the two came more often, and the boss, in order to make them happy, specially prepared a luxurious private room for the two of them. Normally, he wouldn't let others use it, reserving it only for Xiao Fan and Tang Baozi, those two big spenders.

  "Let's follow the old rules. Today we'll invite Wang to dinner, bring out all your best dishes and also your best wine." Tang Pangzi said with a wave of his hand to the boss.

  "Yes, yes, yes. Tell the kitchen to prepare immediately." The boss heard that Xiao Fang and Tang Long, two big spendthrifts, were treating someone to a meal, and couldn't help but take a few more glances at the little demon girl. As soon as he saw the little demon girl's stunning beauty, he was also shocked, and felt some regret. Such a stunning woman would probably be ruined by these two spendthrifts.

  Although Xiao Mo was extremely famous among the young masters of Xuan Shan City, she rarely appeared in front of ordinary people. These ordinary people of Xuan Shan City did not recognize Xiao Mo and thought that she was the target of the two big young masters, Xiao Fang and Tang Long. They secretly felt sorry for Xiao Mo in their hearts. If Xiao Mo knew what they were thinking at this moment, it's unknown what kind of expression she would have.

  "I didn't expect this wine house to have such a good-looking private room, I didn't know, it's really strange." When the boss led a group of people into the private room, Xiaomo couldn't help but feel a little strange. The luxury of this private room was almost comparable to that of a big city's wine house. After all, Xuanshan City was just a small town in a remote mountainous area. Although this wine house was the most luxurious in Xuanshan City, there was still a big gap compared to those in big cities.

  "Return, young lady. This private room is specially prepared for the two young masters and is not open to ordinary people." The owner of the wine house replied in a low voice.

  "Hmm, I didn't expect you two still have quite a bit of face." The little witch looked at Xiao Fan and Tang Baozi with a hint of a smile.

  "That's natural." Xiao Fan puffed out his chest and said, "This young master is famous throughout the land. The boss is also a good person. After hearing our brothers' great names, he specially prepared a private room for us. We couldn't decline, although we felt apologetic in our hearts. However, to avoid wasting the boss's kind intentions, we had no choice but to reluctantly accept."

  "Heh heh, yes indeed, the great name of Xiao Dajie is known to every single person in the entire Xuanshan City." The little demoness laughed as she teased Xiao Fan.

  Xiao Fan didn't blush at all, but in his heart, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the previous owner of this body. His father was a city lord, and although Xiao Fan himself was famous throughout the land, it was infamy that had spread far and wide. Alas, he really didn't know what that guy had been thinking before, to have created such a notorious reputation.

  The boss was shocked after hearing the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but take a few more glances at the little witch, wondering why this girl wasn't afraid of Xiao Nianzhen and even dared to speak to him like that. Could it be that this girl was the daughter of some big family in the city? Hmm, it must be so. From then on, he didn't dare underestimate the little witch either.

  Next, the boss immediately went to prepare food and wine. Xiao Fan and others waited for a good time to eat and drink. Everything seemed calm and peaceful, and several people were extremely happy. However, Lin Jianren was in a different situation at this moment.
