Chapter 412: Chapter 413: Battle (2)_1

"Keep it up!" Nan Feng politely remarked again.

Mo Wenxuan thought to himself, can he not keep going?

For some reason, the boat that had been steady suddenly rocked violently.

Nan Feng has a fear of boats, and the sudden jolt made her jump in fright, like a startled bird. Almost instinctively, she clung to the side. She also tightly gripped Mo Wenxuan’s arm.

Mo Wenxuan was initially chatting with Nan Feng. However, for no apparent reason, Nan Feng suddenly hid in his arms, her soft body pressing tightly against him. At that moment, his entire body stiffened momentarily.

In reality, it was simply that the boat was about to set off, and the boatmen were trying to push the boat away from the dock.

So it turns out that Nan Feng was this scared of riding a boat. She was usually very assertive, but now...

He couldn’t help but hug her body.

Nan Feng thought the boat was sinking or that something bad was going to happen. However, after hiding for a while and realizing that the boat had simply started to move, she cautiously lifted her head.

Looking around at the cabin, everyone else was unfazed. The mother and daughter sitting across her even looked at her strangely, making her realize that she had acted out of turn.

Nan Feng let out a sigh of relief and unconsciously let go of Mo Wenxuan.

As if what she had just clung onto was nothing more than a tree.

...

From Ping County to County’s Dock, the journey takes approximately half an hour. Having gotten a little shock at the beginning, Nan Feng didn’t speak much on the way, choosing to close her eyes and rest instead.

Seeing Nan Feng’s lack of interest in conversation, Mo Wenxuan didn’t disturb her. To allow her to rest, he even requested the mother and daughter across them to lower their voices. When a mischievous child in the rear seats kept running around, Mo Wenxuan went to persuade the parents, persisting until the parents finally picked up the child.

Nan Feng was just resting with her eyes closed, not actually asleep. She was fully aware of the movements in the cabin and knew what Mo Wenxuan was doing.

In her heart, she thought: as they say, literati are mostly stiff-headed. Mo Wenxuan has also become a stubborn person now, having to preach until others can’t bear it.

She really couldn’t figure him out.

...

When the boat docked at County’s Dock, people on board called out, "Those destined for the County, the County’s guests please disembark..."

Nan Feng opened her eyes, picked up her luggage, and glanced at Mo Wenxuan: "I’m leaving the boat now. See you another time."

But Mo Wenxuan also stood up: "Why don’t I accompany you to the County? I’m quite worried about you going alone."

Nan Feng couldn’t help but laugh: "What’s there to worry about?"

"The outside world is quite chaotic right now. As a lady, you might be taken advantage of. If I go with you, I can protect you," Mo Wenxuan said, reaching for his luggage to follow Nan Feng.

But Nan Feng pushed him back down, laughing and saying, "Wenxuan, you’re just a scholar. You can’t even beat me in a fight. If you come with me, it’s not protection, it’s trouble. I hope you’re not angry with me for saying so."

"Well..." Mo Wenxuan straightened up, about to reason with Nan Feng again, but was again pushed back down by Nan Feng. Nan Feng leaned closer to him, wearing a faint smile: "Just sit tight, be a good boy."

That simple smile melted Mo Wenxuan into a puddle of confusion.

When Mo Wenxuan lifted his head, he saw that Nan Feng had already reached the cabin door and was preparing to disembark.

He had no choice but to sit there, dumbfounded.
