"Stay here," she commanded.

"Yes," was the reply.

Nan Hua then leapt down and stealthily made her way towards the same building.

Cai Yun Shao and Fei Mao followed her at a distance, while Hou Lin, a bit further away, did his best to remain unseen. From the moment he had followed Nan Hua to the cloth store, his heart had been uneasy.
