Bai Wanwan shook her head, her brow furrowed tightly. "No! He's badly hurt. If we go back and forth, it might be too late!"
She looked at Zhu Xiu and offered a compromise. "How about... how about you take Aunt Shuang and the cubs back first? Let Xin Feng and Yan Lie stay with me to look for Hua Han. After you drop off the cubs, you can come back and meet up with us?"
"Absolutely not!"
This time, Zhu Xiu's refusal was even more blunt and final, leaving no room for negotiation. "Too many accidents and dangers have already happened when you weren't under my watch. We either go back to the tribe and plan from there, or we all go together. No splitting up!" His tone was resolute. When it came to the safety of Bai Wanwan and the cubs, he would take no risks.
Bai Wanwan knew Zhu Xiu's personality. Once he made a decision, especially about safety, he rarely changed his mind.
