Yu Tingwan got the answer from his reaction. Without asking further, she walked on.
Perhaps the atmosphere was too mysterious.
Elder Ge laughed awkwardly, not sure if he was talking to Yu Tingwan or himself: "The General will be fine."
But he didn't sound very confident.
Yu Tingwan agreed: "Yes, that's right."
Elder Ge: "I've been following the General for years, and I've lost count of how many times I've pulled him back from the Ghost Gate on one hand."
"Last time, he was hit by a poisoned arrow."
"The poison was terrifying, he was stiff all over, and his skin turned blue."
"Look at him now, just fine."
Worry was written all over Elder Ge's face: "Don't panic."
Yu Tingwan ate slowly: "I'm not panicked."
Elder Ge looked at her.
Goodness gracious.
Really not panicked, even smiling.
Elder Ge: ...
Do you have a heart?
Does what you said last time about willing to die for the General still count!
