But for me," wu Xiufan grit out one word at a time, "your life is my top priority!"
Alex remained silent.
"Promise me, Little Alex," wu Xiufan gripped his hand with burning eyes, "to first consider your own safety if you ever encounter such danger in the future."
"Sir," Alex answered perfunctorily, "Your life takes priority over all else." Thus, he refused to follow wu Xiufan's order.
Wu Xiufan's heart quaked as he quietly gazed at alex for a moment, before wrapping him in his arms and whispering, "Your life as well."
Alex, sensing Wu Xiufan's concern, reached out and patted his back gently. "I know," he replied, his voice filled with warmth. "I'll be careful."
He understood the depth of Wu Xiufan's love and concern. He knew that Wu Xiufan would do anything to protect him. But he also knew that he had a responsibility, a duty to others.
