Gu Wanqing can understand his feelings; the young lady has just returned to his side, and before he has had a chance to spoil her, she's already seeking independence, which obviously doesn't feel good.
Gu Wanqing was not angry that Han Jingchen didn't directly answer her question. Actually, no need to speak, she could guess a thing or two.
Thinking of what she had discovered earlier: "Jingchen, those families started stirring again after learning I've returned to the country."
Han Jingchen, naturally, had received the news as well. Upon hearing Gu Wanqing's words, his face turned cold: "Apparently, I was too lenient with them back then. Don't worry, if they dare to reach out, I will make them regret it."
Gu Wanqing was most afraid of them resorting to dirty tricks: "I'm afraid they might target Yanyan."
Han Jingchen turned to look at Gu Wanqing: "Our young lady is not one to be trifled with. If they really try to harm her, it's not certain who would suffer."
