Cute. Jim's smile is sharp and playful, but he bites back any teasing with a quiet chuckle, squeezing Wen Ning's hand and quickly resuming their walk. From here on out things should at least be a little safer, so he allows himself to relax somewhat, a little less on edge when there's no danger of giant sand worms popping up to swallow them whole.
