Jin Zijin was somewhat annoyed as he interrupted her, "Haven't I told you many times? Nothing is more important than your life. Why do you always have to make people worry and be afraid? If something happened to you, what would you have me do?"
Gu Youyou was at a loss for words; he was right. The feeling of being cherished always warmed her heart. Faced with his questioning, she lowered her head.
She murmured softly, "I thought I couldn't be too cowardly, to be beaten with a board and betray you."
Jin Zijin sighed and said, "I wish you were more cowardly. You're a lady, not a warrior ready to die. It's not shameful to fear death and cling to life. In such situations, to save your own skin, betraying anyone is acceptable. I don't mind."
