This is something that easily brings up not-so-pleasant memories of the past, and silence is the best way to inquire.
Is having a woman and a child a burden?
Zhu Gui didn't agree with this notion. In the early days of the apocalypse, he, too, was not brave. He would tremble in fear at the sight of vicious zombies, but gradually, he became brave too. He could calmly think of escape strategies even when surrounded by zombies.
"Is it safe there?" Yang Jing asked cautiously.
Zhu Gui said, "I don't know. We haven't known for long. We've decided to go. If you don't want to, I can take you back, and you can stay there. If it's really safe there, I can come back to get you."
Yang Jing shook her head and chose to follow.
