Chapter 1012: How to Explain

Tina felt a pang of guilt and waved at them, saying, "Kiki, Mimi, come here."

Kiki and Mimi looked up, glanced at Scarlett beside them, and only after receiving her nod of approval did they take small steps toward Tina.

Each of them grabbed one of Tina's hands, their small faces full of worry. "Are you really okay now?"

Tina gently patted their little hands to reassure them, explaining that she was fine and only felt unwell because of the scent of pollen.

Kiki glanced at Jared, whose expression had softened, then lowered her head and whispered to Tina, "But Jared's face looked so scary earlier. We got so scared that we went to tell Mom and Dad."

Tina chuckled. "Kiki and Mimi did great. But this time, I wasn't sick, so you don't need to feel bad."

The two little girls looked up at Tina, then at Jared, and finally nodded.

When Master Tam arrived, he only exchanged a single glance with Tina before understanding what had happened.

Before he could speak, Ian issued a sharp command, "You better watch her closely. If there's even the slightest issue with Tina, you'll return every single treasure you took from me today."

Master Tam paused for a moment before retorting forcefully, "What could possibly happen to my disciple? It's you who's always jumping at shadows. A perfectly healthy person could be scared sick by your paranoia!"

Ian let out a cold snort. "And who was it that let something slip the other night...?"

Master Tam's lips twitched. Afraid Ian would say more, he quickly raised his hand to cut him off. "Fine, fine, I'll check her. You talk too much. Don't forget, I care about my disciple even more than you do."

With that, Master Tam walked over to a chair and gestured for Tina. "My dear disciple, give me your hand so I can check your pulse."

Tina didn't refuse. Years of understanding between them meant she already knew his intentions without him needing to say anything.

Master Tam placed his fingers on her wrist, waited a moment, then released her.

Standing up, he turned to face the crowd of people behind him, his expression exasperated. "You're all making a fuss over nothing. I told you, my disciple is in perfect health. There's nothing wrong. Now go on, scatter. You're all using up all the good air in this room."

The crowd collectively sighed in relief.
