Chapter 144: Chapter 144 - Distraught

Before leaving the house, Yue made sure to take the paper bag from aunty Ling and filled it up with crushed up newspaper. This was to make an impression that he came out with the bags he went in. Those three people might still be around this area. 

If they get even a gist that he had given manager mu these groceries, they might come to attack them.

In his books it was better to be precautious than not.

"I'll get going aunty; I'll come by soon, okay. Stay safe and don't open the door to anyone else, yeah?"

"Yes yes... dear boy stay safe." She gently kissed his cheeks.

Yue smirked widely and ran out.

On the hindsight he saw aunty Ling close the door.

With the two bags in hand, he ran down the stairs to the street.

His eyes always searched for traces of those three men in the vicinity. Thankfully, they were nowhere in sight.
