Chapter 928: Chapter 928 He Only Wants This One Woman

The weather was cold, and the streets were deserted. Many shops had their door curtains down, so Nan Feng had to rely on the signs outside and "Knock if you need assistance" messages to determine whether or not they were selling clothes inside.

Finally, she found one and after knocking, entered to find the shopkeeper couple having a meal. Seeing that they finally had a customer, they were naturally very welcoming.

"What do you need? Our shop can do custom orders or you can buy ready-made garments. These fabrics are all newly arrived from the south; they are quite popular with the ladies."

Nan Feng looked around inside the shop.

Compared to those in Fuzhou Province City, these fabrics were somewhat rough, so she didn’t plan to buy much. She only picked out two undershirts for changing and another two inner skirts, "Just these two, please pack them up for me."

"Alright, that’ll be three hundred wen," the female shopkeeper wiped her hands and then packed up the clothes for Nan Feng.

The clothes shop was very warm inside because of the charcoal fire, but it was very cold outside, especially when they just stepped out, and a cold wind mixed with fine rain blew over, causing Nan Feng to shiver.

Without saying a word, Ye Ge immediately took off his cloak and draped it over Nan Feng.

"This isn’t good; you’ll be cold," Nan Feng tried to give the cloak back to Ye Ge but was stopped by him. He just hugged Nan Feng tightly, preventing her from continuing to take off the cloak.

This gesture still made Nan Feng’s body stiffen, but soon after, warmth followed.

She liked this domineering kindness of his.

Her body felt a lot warmer, as if she was wrapped in his body heat, so she simply wrapped the cloak tighter around her.

At the nearby Tea House.

Two people were drinking tea upstairs when one of them suddenly saw the figures of a man and a woman outside and casually asked, "Is that General Nangong from Dajin?"

The other leaned out of the window, looked down and said, "The person who walks so upright, no doubt it’s General Nangong."

"Looks like now that there’s no war, the General has to come out for matchmaking."

"How do you know he’s here to seek a match? Maybe that’s his wife?"

"I... was guessing, haha," the man laughed over his tea and then said, "He’s got it easy, when he’s not defending the border, he’s playing with girls. Our Second Prince, on the other hand... geez, stuck with one woman, that thick-headed fellow!"

"Shh," another cautioned, "Don’t talk nonsense, or you might get in trouble if the Second Prince finds out and decides to behead you. He’s in a bad mood lately, beheading anyone he sees."

The two shifted their gaze away from Ye Ge and Nan Feng and focused on their tea once again.

...

Ye Ge and Nan Feng entered from the back courtyard of the Yamen and just as they got to the yard, they saw Lu Jianxi returning from outside as well.

Seeing Ye Ge’s cloak on Nan Feng, Lu Jianxi couldn’t help but feel a bit bitter, reminding himself of the saying: I always thought you were aloof because you were warming someone else.

"Ye Ge, Nan Feng, where did you go in such cold weather?"

Nan Feng smiled and said, "I wanted to buy some clothes, and I was planning to go out alone to browse... but Ye Ge insisted on accompanying me."

"It’s because I worry about you, or I’m afraid you might get lost," Lu Jianxi laughed, "It’s too cold; let’s not stand here any longer. Let’s go inside and warm up."

"Jianxi, where are you coming from?" Nan Feng asked as they walked into the yard.

"Same as usual, doing some reassurance work, and now with the cold weather, delivering some blankets to the homeless refugees, just trying to do my part," Lu Jianxi said while rubbing his nose, clearly already freezing.
