Gao Yang truly didn't know he still needed to protect Hagel's family.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Obligations are mutual, and the relationship between Hagel and Grand Ivan isn't just about doing things for money. After being in Kiev for so long, whenever Gao Yang asks Hagel to handle something, he never spends a dime.
If Hagel has thoroughly tied his fate to Grand Ivan's chariot, then Grand Ivan is obliged to protect Hagel. Gao Yang, having received Grand Ivan's force in Europe, is thus obligated to fulfill his own responsibilities.
If a leader can't protect his followers, can he still be considered the leader?
Gao Yang exhaled and said in a low voice, "Of course, I will fulfill my responsibilities. I will take full responsibility for you and your family."
