"This... So you'll be going out alone? Won't it be risky? At Least keep one of the others with you. They haven't been seen here," Ming Lan suggested. She agreed to go back since her presence was risky for Long Chen, but she still didn't wish to leave him alone in times like these.
"Moving alone is better for me here. Don't worry about it," Long Chen answered as he disagreed. "I am much safer this way since I won't need to worry about others."
"It'll be for a few days only. At most four days and I'll be done," he continued.
"But..." Ming Lan again tried to make him agree not to be alone when she felt a hand resting on her shoulder.
"What happened?" She asked Mingyu, who was standing beside her.
"Let's listen to him. He knows what's best for him. Staying with him will only drag him down. It'll be more dangerous for him. We can't let him be at risk just for our peace of mind," Mingyu answered as she sighed.
Ming Lan gazed back at Mingyu as she sighed.
