Chapter 387: Chapter 388 Gang Leader (1)_1
There is only one tea house in this area of Central Street, namely the Yuelai Tea House to the right. As Nan Feng looked towards the Yuelai Tea House, he could see a white figure in the window of an elegant room.
So, the gang leader was watching from above all this time.
The Dragon Tooth gang runs most of the local entertainment venues. With something as big as the election of a new courtesan happening, how could the gang leader not be present?
Nan Feng then looked at the butler, Yan: "May I trouble you to show me the way, Yan?"
...
The Yuelai Tea House had three floors, and perhaps due to its favorable location, the crowd had filled the side near the competition, pushing the tea house to capacity.
However, the third floor was relatively quiet.
The third floor was made up of private rooms and only customers who had reserved them could go up. There were charcoal stoves in the corridors, making it much warmer compared to the second floor.
Butler Yan pushed open one of the doors and respectfully ushered Nan Feng in: "The gang leader is inside. Please, Lady Nan Feng."
"Thank you, Butler Yan."
Rather than the warm corridor outside, this room was somewhat chilly because the window was open, and the gang leader sat by the window with a smile, pointing to the seat across from him, "Please have a seat, honoured guest!"
Nan Feng sat down without hesitation, expressing her modesty, "You flatter me. I’m just a delivery person. I’m thankful you helped me out earlier; otherwise, I might have been dragged to parade on the streets."
"Who could force Lady Nan Feng to do something she doesn’t want to do?" The gang leader laughed, his manner ever courteous, before pouring Nan Feng a cup of tea.
Because the window was open, he still wore his thick, fur coat.
"I certainly have no desire to be the courtesan, but without your intervention, I would not have gotten out of this situation so easily. So, I still have to thank you. With tea replacing wine, to the gang leader," Nan Feng didn’t care whether he was willing or not, she simply clinked her cup against his and downed it in one gulp.
The tea was fragrant, and after drinking it, a pleasant taste lingered. Nan Feng couldn’t help but ask, "Strange, I’ve been to the Yuelai Teahouse a few times before, yet I’ve never tasted such fragrant tea. Which type of tea did you order? I’ll order it next time."
"Keemun Fragrance. Just an ordinary tea," the gang leader said with a slight smile, then he poured her another cup.
"Thank you, gang leader," Nan Feng said, feeling very comfortable in the presence of the gang leader.
Still smiling, the gang leader said, "We’ve met a few times now, and we can be considered friends. You don’t have to call me ’gang leader’ every time. My surname is Long, and I’m the third child in my family. You can call me Long San."
"Long San? This name... It has a hint of the underworld, which doesn’t match your demeanor," Nan Feng said.
"Did you forget, Lady Nan Feng? I’m originally from the underworld," Long San laughed.
"So you have two older brothers?"
"No, two older sisters. Otherwise, the gang’s affairs wouldn’t fall to me, a sickly person like me," Long San said.
Nan Feng didn’t know how to respond, but at that moment, a cheer was heard from Central Street. She peeked out to see the host lifting the hand of a girl in green, announcing the birth of a new favourite courtesan.
She breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally, they selected someone."
Long San laughed and asked Nan Feng, "Are you interested in these competitions, Lady Nan Feng?"
"No, I was just here to deliver the goods and was pushed on to the stage," Nan Feng explained.
"So, Lady Nan Feng, you probably don’t think highly of this kind of competition, do you?" Long San asked, sipping his tea, watching her reaction with an amused grin.
