Chapter 2997 The scenery has become unfamiliar
Under the attention of everyone, the boat slowly approached the shore.
It really is a gorgeous and comfortable boat. There are even chairs and tables inside, with some snacks on the tables.
If they didn't know that this ship was to pick up Nan Yan and take her to the Tiangang Lianhuan Wharf in Xingluo Lake, ordinary people would probably think it was a pleasure boat for rich young men and women to go on a trip.
There was only one boatman on the boat, and no one else.
Obviously, it was meant to reassure them.
However, going to a place like that would not make one feel at ease even if he took his own boat. When Zhu Feng saw this scene, he did not feel relaxed at all. He just frowned, looked at the boat, and then turned back to look at Nan Yan.
Lu Taining and the others raised their hands: "Madam, please."
Nan Yan was about to move forward, but after a moment's thought, she stopped and looked back. Zhu Feng was standing behind her with a frown on his face. She walked over to Zhu Feng and took his hands. "Husband."
The people around coughed lightly and looked away in embarrassment.
It's really not nice to watch too much as the young couple says goodbye.
Zhu Feng looked down at her. Although he had been reluctant to let Nan Yan take this risk before, now that everything was settled, he was relatively calm. When Nan Yan took his hands, he gently pinched her fingertips with his backhand and whispered, "Be careful."
Nan Yan looked up into his eyes and said, "This is what I want to say to my husband."
She came close to Zhu Feng and whispered, "Be careful."
Zhu Feng just nodded slightly to her and said nothing more.
Nan Yan let go of his hand and, supported by Ting Fu, turned and walked towards the pier. However, Ruo Shui, who was standing behind Zhu Feng, was unwilling to give in and took another step forward: "Madam, let me accompany you!"
Nan Yan looked back at her, then glanced at Xu Miaoming beside her.
Then he shook his head and said, "Be good and stay by the master's side and serve him."
Although Ruoshui was loyal to her, she was still too young and had not experienced many big scenes. She almost called her by the wrong name in a moment of impulse. Although she entered Xingluo Lake, Nan Yan did not feel that she needed to pretend to be "Mrs. Huang", but at the critical moment, every move of the people around her could affect the overall situation.
The reason why Tingfu was brought with him was because he had been with him for a long time and had seen many big scenes. More importantly, Zhu Feng chose him to serve him in Yiku Palace because he was smart. Later, Zhu Feng asked the palace guards to take time to teach him some boxing and kicking skills. Although they were not as good as Ran Xiaoyu's, they could be used when necessary.
He helped Nan Yan walk across the pier and onto the boat.
Zhu Feng put his hands behind his back and although he tried his best to cover it up, he couldn't help but take a step forward at this moment.
Nan Yan walked to the bow of the boat and waved at him gently.
The grain transport ships around had already started moving forward. They led the way, and immediately, the ship where Nan Yan was also swayed away from the shore and headed forward.
Zhu Feng took two more steps forward and walked onto the pier.
Lu Taining stood by and watched the grain ships slowly sail into the milky white mist ahead. He breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the mission this time was completed.
He turned around and saluted Zhu Feng. "Boss Huang, I have something else to do in my shop, so I'll take my leave now. If there's any news from Xingluo Lake, I'll send someone to inform Boss Huang immediately."
Zhu Feng nodded and remained standing still.
Lu Taining and the others raised their eyebrows. They originally thought that Huang Si actually let his wife go to Xingluo Lake. It seemed that the couple was just a superficial couple who got together for profit. Unexpectedly, they seemed to be deeply in love.
He smiled and turned away.
After everyone from the Hang Seng Bank had left, Xu Miaoming slowly walked behind Zhu Feng and said softly, "Your Majesty... let's go back as well."
Zhu Feng was silent for a while and looked back at her.
Nodding, the two of them left.

After Nan Yan entered the cabin, she looked around and sat down on a chair to the side. Ting Fu also looked around. This small cabin couldn't hide a third person. He walked back and saw Nan Yan picking up the cup on the table and about to drink tea. He hurriedly said, "Madam, this tea--"
What if it’s poisonous?
Nan Yan smiled and said calmly: "If the other party really wants to kill me, there is no need for this."
Tingfu thought about it and agreed.
But he still walked over, poured a cup of tea, and then tried it with the silver needle he brought with him. After confirming that there was no problem, he handed it to Nan Yan.
The boatman standing at the bow sneered when he saw this.
Nan Yan glanced at him, thought for a moment, and walked towards the bow of the boat with the teacup. Tingfu wanted to stop her, but Nan Yan just waved her hand, so he didn't say anything.
Nan Yan walked up to the boatman and looked him over.
The boatman asked coldly, "What are you looking at, Madam?"
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Looking like this, the warrior must have spent quite some time in Xingluo Lake."
The boatman said, "I was born and raised there. What do you think?"
"So, what are you doing there?"
"What? Rowing the boat."
"Piercing? Born and raised there, have you been doing this forever?"
The boatman frowned, as if offended, and said, "What do you mean?"
Nan Yan smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just saw that the warrior had a sharp gaze and looked noble. I just didn't expect that you would spend half your life rowing a boat. It's a pity."
He smiled and turned back.
The boatman frowned and wanted to say something, but Nan Yan ignored him completely. She walked back to the cabin and sat down. She asked Ting Fuyou to refill her cup with water, and then she leisurely looked at the scenery outside.
The boatman glanced at her from time to time while rowing the boat.
After walking for most of the day, the surrounding waterways gradually became familiar. Nan Yan recognized it at a glance. It was indeed the same route she had taken when she followed Zhu Feng to track down Arslan and his men who had kidnapped Tong Yuhua.
By this calculation, the boat will need at least three days to reach Xingluo Lake at the speed it is traveling.
During this period, she never spoke to the boatman again, and Tingfu was also very cautious and tried not to speak if possible.
In a blink of an eye, two days passed.
One day, Nan Yan walked to the bow of the ship and looked at the scenery on both sides as usual, but suddenly found something wrong.
The surrounding scenery became unfamiliar.
It was no longer the waterway they had taken before.
She immediately turned to look at the boatman, frowned and said, "What's going on? Where are you taking me?"
