"Never mind." After a moment of consideration, Cen Dongsheng changed his mind, "You all come with me."
"Is that alright?"
"Mm. I think there's some sense in what you say, and I'm confident I can protect you. Most importantly, we can't be sure where is safe right now; let's go out and have a look around before deciding."
