"I... I'd better not," Wei'en declined.
He was on a mission at the Cathedral. It would be a disaster if an accident happened and implicated Kali.
Kali, thinking he was worried about troubling her, offered a warm smile. "Wei'en, I really don't mind..."
"Kali, you don't want to be Wei'en's guide? Wonderful!"
Yuan stepped directly between them, glaring at Wei'en. "Why haven't you hurried over to the Cathedral yet?"
His stern gaze and the slight twitch of his lips radiated a dangerous aura, as if to say: Watch your words, kid.
Wei'en smiled sheepishly. "Uncle Yuan, Sister Kali, I'll head to the Cathedral now."
He quickly pulled Tina along and turned to leave.
'If I stay any longer, I'm afraid Yuan will knock me out with a single punch.'
"Wait, Wei'en?" Kali reached out, wanting to persuade him again. "Won't you reconsider..."
But Yuan turned and blocked her. "See? Wei'en doesn't want you to be his guide either."
