Chapter 277: Chapter 278 Who is the Person in the Painting (Third Update)_1

When Ye Ge entered, he saw Nan Feng looking at the painting. But he wasn’t upset or angry, he just calmly walked up to her, "Looking at the painting?"

His tone was very calm, as if the painting had nothing to do with him.

"Yes, who’s the person in the painting?" asked Nan Feng.

Ye Ge took the painting in his hands, rolling it up as he spoke, "It’s a friend I met when I was a bodyguard. He gave it to me, so I’ve kept it until now."

Seeing Ye Ge didn’t seem willing to share his painting, Nan Feng hurriedly said, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to look at it. I thought it was the one I drew before and you put it away. Are you upset with me now?"

Nan Feng felt a little indignant inside, thinking, we’re so close now, what’s the big deal about looking at a painting?

Ye Ge noticed Nan Feng’s mood was off, so he put the painting back on the shelf and, turning around, held her hand, "Why would I blame you? What’s mine is yours. I thought the person in the painting was good-looking, and you were looking at it so deeply before. I was worried you’d find me ugly and stop liking me. After all, comparison can lead to harm."

Nan Feng kept staring at Ye Ge.

Ye Ge continued, "Nan Feng, I can get jealous too--I’m right in front of you, yet you’re looking at the man in the painting."

Nan Feng finally smiled: "Then you better hide it well in the future, prevent me from seeing it again. Otherwise, you’ll feel inferior again."

"Understood," Ye Ge had wanted to wrap his arms around Nan Feng for a while since they hadn’t seen each other in days, but Nan Feng suddenly pushed him away, "Busy with gazing at a pretty boy and forgetting the important matters...."

Ye Ge, suddenly pushed away, seemed rather miffed. But he still had the patience to ask her: "What’s the important matter?"

...

By the time Ye Ge arrived at Spikenard Square with a few others, those wicked women had run off again. Looks like someone must have been watching from the shadows.

Yet another wasted effort.

When Feng Gu saw Nan Feng finally back, she acted as if she’d just seen a lifeline, her face pale, "Sister Nan Feng, you’re finally back. Those women today were vicious. People were trying to buy our goods, but they keep running them off."

Nan Feng was immediately angered, "Lucky for them they ran off. If they come back tomorrow, I won’t report it to the officials. I’ll just tie them up and take them to the Yamen myself. We’ll see how bold they can be."

Ye Ge asked Nan Feng, "Do you want me to send someone to stay here tomorrow?"

"No need, that would make it seem like I have a lot of backing," replied Nan Feng. "If they come back tomorrow, I’ll tie them up myself."

Ye Ge nodded, then commented, "You should have tied them up earlier. If something like this happens again, don’t hesitate."

"Right."

Noticing that the crowd had dispersed, Nan Feng told Ye Ge, "Sorry for making you run this errand. You should go back first."

"So eager to send me away?" Ye Ge looked at Nan Feng, a hint of teasing in the corner of his mouth, "Is it because you’ve started to dislike me after seeing that painting?"

"No, not at all, how could that be?" Nan Feng stuttered in her rush to clear herself.

She was indeed feeling slightly guilty because she had admittedly admired the painting. But that didn’t mean she stopped liking Ye Ge. Just like nowadays, many girls might have boyfriends or husbands but can still swoon over Song Zhongji, Yang Yang, Li Yifeng, Chen Weiting and TFBOYS, squinting at their screens whenever they show up?
