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.
