Cautiously; warily (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gingerly

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'cautiously' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'warily' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for gingerly that I've seen before include "(Approach) in a cautious manner" , "With soft steps" , "Cautiously (as if in pain?)" , "Showing caution" , "With extreme care and delicacy" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
