"It went up by over fifteen thousand, my danger’s resolved."
Jiang Feng exclaid in surprise.
He’d known for a long ti the Second Prince wielded power over the court, had great strength, and that with his Second Grade Refining Essence Realm, even a First-Grade Powerhouse or Innate Powerhouse would be in big trouble if they faced the Second Prince.
If he could escape danger in the Second Prince’s hands—
He’d definitely gain a decent chunk of Fortune Points.
Now that he saw an increase of over fifteen thousand Fortune Points, even though he’d expected it, actually seeing the number still left Jiang Feng both delighted and shocked.
"My own danger’s cleared, but did Sister Dong’s danger get resolved or not?"
"I’ve cleared my own suspicion, which ans hers should be cleared too, and she’s also Zhenbei Prison’s Grand Commander—I doubt anything will happen to her."
Jiang Feng was more worried about Han Dong.
The two had helped each other out before.
In Jiang Feng’s heart, he always felt a little guilty towards Han Dong.
"No matter what, the ledger wasn’t taken by Sister Dong. She’s definitely safer than ."
Jiang Feng could only comfort himself like this.
"I can’t stay here too long—who knows when another expert might sneak in to kill Xiao Ran."
This ti, Jiang Feng was afraid of being dragged into trouble because of Xiao Ran.
So, over the next few days—
Jiang Feng focused on slowly recovering.
Ten days later—
"Little Prince, you see I’m completely fine now—let go back already!"
Jiang Feng hopped a few steps in front of Xiao Ran.
At the sa ti, he said, "Sister Dong has a misunderstanding with you, but I’m sure she’s not mad anymore. As long as you let go back, I’ll explain things clearly to her, and you two are guaranteed to make up."
"You’re really all right?"
Xiao Ran asked.
"Yeah, I’m truly fine now. These days, you had a physician see every day and gave all kinds of supplents. My injuries are healed, and you even sorted out that Qi Blood deficiency of mine."
Jiang Feng smiled awkwardly.
"Is that so. Then I won’t keep you. Rember what I told you to do—you have to get it done, and don’t let Dong’Er hold any grudge against , or I won’t let you off."
Xiao Ran had long been looking forward to Jiang Feng’s return to Zhenbei Prison.
Now, seeing that Jiang Feng was fine, naturally he had no intention of keeping him any longer.
"Don’t worry, I’ll get it done. I’ll take my leave."
Jiang Feng nodded and bowed.
Then Xiao Ran arranged a carriage to send Jiang Feng back to Zhenbei Prison, and gifted him a set of fine clothes too.
"Sister Dong, I’m back!"
Jiang Feng carried two bundles of goods as he returned to Zhenbei Prison.
He went straight to Han Dong’s courtyard.
Han Dong was doing breath exercises in her room.
When she heard Jiang Feng’s voice,
She rushed out of her room at once.
"These days, I wanted to visit you at the Prince’s Mansion a few tis, but I held back—just wanted to let Xiao Ran learn his lesson."
Han Dong said.
"Sister Dong, don’t be mad at the Little Prince anymore, look, I ca back good as new. It’s all my fault for not making things clear."
Jiang Feng scratched his head.
"I won’t let him step foot in Zhenbei Prison again, and he won’t dare ss with you anymore. Don’t worry, I can handle things between us myself."
Han Dong smiled.
She was just afraid Jiang Feng would get threatened by Xiao Ran.
"Okay, Sister Dong. Then I’ll head back and start work tomorrow."
Jiang Feng nodded.
He’d co mainly to let Han Dong know he was safe, and to see if she needed anything.
"No rush, I already got you a month off. Take a few more days to recover your Vitality first."
Han Dong stopped him.
Xiao Ran was a Second-Grade Martial Artist.
Even a casual kick from him—
Wasn’t sothing an ordinary person could withstand.
"All right."
Jiang Feng thought about it and didn’t refuse.
A good rest would do him good anyway.
"If anything cos up, look for Supervisor Chu Tianhe of the Prison Army—he’ll help you."
Han Dong reminded him again.
"Okay, got it."
Jiang Feng nodded and turned to leave.
Suddenly sothing occurred to him. He turned back and said, "Sister Dong, you’re leaving, aren’t you?"
Normally, if anything happened, he could go straight to Han Dong for help.
Why else would she tell him to find Chu Tianhe?
"Yeah, I need to leave for a while, got sothing to take care of."
Han Dong nodded.
She saw Jiang Feng as a friend—if she was going to leave Zhenbei Prison for a while, of course she’d tell him.
Jiang Feng’s heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly asked, "Sister Dong, where are you going?"
"Gotta leave Dragon Capital for a bit."
Han Dong said.
"It’s not safe outside. Sister Dong, why are you leaving Dragon Capital?"
This wasn’t sothing Jiang Feng should really be asking,
But with everything going on lately and Han Dong suddenly heading out of Dragon Capital, Jiang Feng couldn’t help getting nervous.
"Why so many questions today?"
Han Dong frowned.
"I just got back from the Prince’s Mansion, and now you’re suddenly leaving. I’m just worried the Little Prince might overthink things."
Jiang Feng explained.
"Don’t pay him any mind. I’ve warned him, he won’t bother you again."
Han Dong reassured him.
"Alright, you go get so rest."
Han Dong didn’t want to discuss her leaving Dragon Capital any further with Jiang Feng.
"Sister Dong, be careful while you’re out."
Jiang Feng reminded her.
Han Dong nodded, watching Jiang Feng walk off.
After leaving Zhenbei Prison, back in Willow Alley, Jiang Feng sat on his bed, frowning.
He knew his own danger was more or less over.
But Han Dong’s danger—
It looked like it still wasn’t settled.
"I have to figure out what exactly Sister Dong’s going to do outside Dragon Capital."
Jiang Feng muttered to himself.
"Eight or nine tis out of ten, it’s either the Second Prince’s or the Seventh Prince’s doing."
He guessed.
"Or maybe I’m just jumping at shadows and overthinking everything."
"No matter what, Sister Dong’s Grand Commander of Zhenbei Prison—not just anyone can do anything to her."
"Hopefully I’m just being paranoid and she’s just got sothing she needs to take care of."
Jiang Feng comforted himself again.
"If Sister Dong really was in danger, Xiao Ran would be even more worried than . If she’s leaving Dragon Capital, Xiao Ran should know. I’ll just wait and see."
Jiang Feng knew he couldn’t act recklessly, or he might end up drawing trouble again.
That night—
Uncle Huo and Auntie Huo brought the whole family to visit Jiang Feng.
Auntie Huo went to the kitchen to cook a few hostyle dishes for Jiang Feng. So of the ingredients were brought by Uncle Huo and his wife, but most were ones Jiang Feng bought earlier today.
At the dinner table—
Uncle Huo, knowing Jiang Feng had just recovered,
Poured all the wine into his own bowl.
The family stayed in Jiang Feng’s courtyard for an hour before heading ho.
After seeing Uncle Huo off,
Jiang Feng lay in bed, unable to sleep for a long ti.
He was still worrying about Han Dong.
In all of Zhenbei Prison, only Uncle Huo and Han Dong counted as his friends. Although he hadn’t known Han Dong as long, their bond was already deeper than his with Uncle Huo.
"If Sister Dong left Dragon Capital not because of the Second or Seventh Prince, Xiao Ran would definitely go with her."
"Let’s go see what Xiao Ran’s up to?"
Jiang Feng made up his mind, and his figure quickly vanished into the night of Willow Alley.
