"You're feeling unwell and need to go into seclusion?"
I looked at Yu Longting's slightly furrowed brows and almost instantly understood his hidden message.
He was excessively indulgent and protective of me, and unless absolutely necessary, he wouldn't let me be the jailer, especially given Yu Rongling's restless nature.
Yu Longting touched my head, his face melting into a gentle smile, radiant as a myriad of flowering pear trees, unparalleled in beauty, "It's true I'm going into seclusion, but I'm not feeling unwell. When I went into the Medicinal Pool, I soaked the cheongsam along with it and ended up transferring all the Spiritual Power I could to you. The Spiritual Power in my body that's not yet under my control is too abundant and tumultuous."
"Look at my silly head. We've all been jostling about on the road; of course, you haven't had time to assimilate it. Go on, hurry." I tugged on the rope and urged Yu Longting up the stairs.
