Xu Taiping was rather bewildered by Yang Hong's sudden question, but he still nodded and said:
"Go ahead."
Yang Hong looked at Xu Taiping with a solemn expression and said:

His expression turned serious.
"Death is no good thing. Don't speak of it so lightly again."
Yang Hong persisted:
"Promise me, and I won't mention it!"
