Chapter 907: Chapter 907 This Name Sounds Very Familiar

Just then, the owner of the Medicine Shop woke up. Being very close to the entrance, he immediately saw that Nangong Ye was still inside and subconsciously ran out to shout for help, "Someone come, there’s an assassin, someone come..."

This Medicine Shop also served nobles, so the owner’s shouts quickly attracted quite a few Guards over.

Inside, Nangong Ye stuffed the hairpin into Nan Feng’s hand and urged her, "Fengfeng, remember what I said, wait for me at the marketplace."

Having said that, Nangong Ye jumped out through the window.

The Guards rushed in and, seeing only Nan Feng inside, asked her, "Where is he?"

Nan Feng pointed towards the window.

The Guards immediately ran off again.

Meanwhile, Nan Feng looked at the white jade hairpin that Nangong Ye had given her.

For some reason, when she picked up the hairpin, it felt as though it weighed a thousand taels. Her hands shook as she held it, and abruptly, her heart started to ache.

In her eyes, the expression of Nangong Ye reemerged, such an expression, coming from such a tall man, didn’t seem fake at all, it was a genuine outpouring of emotion.

She also remembered the time when she was walking through Capital City and took a fancy to a white jade hairpin. Even though she had stopped wearing it after returning to the grasslands, the hairpin was extremely similar to the one she now held. If there wasn’t some connection, she wouldn’t be so fixated on the hairpin.

The more she thought about it, the more intense the pain in her heart became.

If that man was truly the original owner’s husband, then how much pain must he be in after the way she had just treated him?

Apparently, people in love really do share a heart; his pain was her pain.

After a long time, Nan Feng’s emotions finally calmed down, and only then did she go out with the hairpin in hand.

Just as she reached the doorway, she saw Tuoba Lie approaching on horseback. Seeing Nan Feng, he immediately dismounted and walked towards her, "Nan Feng, are you alright? Did you see the assassin?"

Nan Feng shook her head, "I’m fine, the assassin escaped."

"Look at you, I told you to stay inside and not wander around, and the moment you go out, you run into such danger?"

Nan Feng was somewhat irritated, "Last life, so many people died in car accidents every year, why did you still insist on going out every day?"

Tuoba Lie was taken aback and felt extremely displeased, "Isn’t this me being concerned about you? Is this how you talk to someone who cares?"

"This is just how I am!" Nan Feng retorted again.

Tuoba Lie also felt a surge of anger, about to vent, but he quickly suppressed it, "Nan Feng, were you scared by the assassin? Is it my fault for arriving late?"

"Who cares about you!"

"You... Nan Feng, I feel like I’m being a masochist!" Tuoba Lie turned and mounted his horse.

Nan Feng returned to her room and took out the white jade hairpin she bought in Capital City, then placed both hairpins together.

And her mind was full of the man she thought she had only seen once, Nangong Ye.

He was a very charismatic man, meeting all of Nan Feng’s previous fantasies about a lover—handsome, well-built, commanding presence, and deeply affectionate. If it were not for the context of their recent encounter, she might have fallen for him at first sight.

No, no, it must be because of the original owner’s memories that her heart is now in such turmoil.

But that man belonged to the original owner, not to her.

...

Having met Nangong Ye just once, Nan Feng suddenly felt as if life was no longer so dull.

She thought of his name every day, Nangong Ye, Nangong Ye?

The name felt especially familiar.
