Chapter 262: Chapter 263: Holding Until Dawn (Fourth Watch)_1

At that moment, Ye Ge set down his teacup, his eyes deep and inscrutable," I have always heard that the gang leader of the Dragon Tooth Gang is a man of chivalry. However, some of his subordinates take advantage of the fame of the gang and run amok, creating havoc wherever they go. If the gang leader recovers a bit, he should straighten out the gang’s rules. Also, I’ll instruct my people to let you load that shipment you are moving out from the dock tomorrow right onto the ship."

The gang leader’s expression finally lost its composure, displaying surprise as he looked at Ye Ge.

Their eyes locked for several seconds, carrying a weight that perhaps only the two of them understood.

When Ye Ge left the mansion with Nan Feng, even though he did not have the Blood Flame Stone as bargaining chips, still no one dared to stop them. The gang leader even sent people with a carriage to give them a ride back.

In the dead of night, the only sound was that of the carriage wheels on the streets.

Nan Feng, leaning against Ye Ge, could not help but ask him, "What kind of sect is this Dragon Tooth Gang? Are they good or bad?"

Ye Ge playfully tapped her nose," This kind of gang does not have a clear dichotomy of good and bad. I would say they’re temporarily harmless. After all, they do have their own gang rules. As long as they don’t commit arson or murder, the officials couldn’t be bothered to intervene."

"How did you know that their gang leader is sick? And also about him needing the Blood Flame Stone for treatment?"

"When you told me the situation this afternoon, I went to inquire about it."

"You found out so quickly?"

Ye Ge replied, "That’s nothing."

Nan Feng then asked, "What kind of illness does the gang leader have? Despite his physical condition, he can still be a gang leader. The people around him are quite loyal; they don’t even try to usurp his position, and obediently listen to him."

"He’s been able to sit in that position naturally because he has some talent," Ye Ge said, lightly patting Nan Feng’s shoulder, "As the saying goes, you can’t judge a book by its cover."

Nan Feng nestled her head in his embrace, "Right, don’t judge a book by its cover."

She was referring to Ye Ge.

Ye Ge chuckled indulgently in response.

Nan Feng continued to ask, "Right, isn’t the gang leader shipping some goods from the dock? What are these goods?"

Lowering his voice, Ye Ge whispered into Nan Feng’s ear, "A batch of explosives forbidden by the official government, but they are transporting it to support the northern warfare."

"Supporting the Dajin Dynasty?"

"Yes."

"No wonder, no one tried to stop us when we were leaving. If it hadn’t been for that, we would probably have been stopped halfway," Nan Feng said, "But how did you find out about this?"

"The affair with the explosives wasn’t found out today; I discovered it a few days ago. I originally planned to turn a blind eye and let it go. Just tonight, I decided to do him a favor so he will stop bothering you in the future," Ye Ge replied.

Nan Feng, deeply moved, leaned against him, "You always do so many things for me silently, but I have done nothing for you."

When praised, Ye Ge was neither smug nor did he take the opportunity to praise himself, but instead he just held her a little tighter, "That’s not true."

"....."

....

Concerned about disturbing Nan Quanyou, and worried about Feng Gu at Spikenard Square, Ye Ge took Nan Feng directly back to Spikenard Square and then helped her down from the carriage.

It was a princess carry.

Nan Feng, with her arms around Ye Ge’s neck, felt extremely secure in his arms. She was so comfortable that she did not want to get down.

"Isn’t it late? Aren’t you sleepy?" Ye Ge asked.

Nan Feng yawned, yet declared, "I’m not sleepy. I want to stay in your arms like this."

Ye Ge chuckled, "So, should I hold you until dawn?"

"No, just a little longer," Nan Feng certainly wouldn’t let him hold her until dawn, he too had been exhausting himself for so long, without rest, he could collapse.
