Gu Jinyuan's unwillingness to back down made Lian Fangcheng feel a little troubled. He did not want to fall out with the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company since it would not do the Lian family any good.
Although the Lian family had the backing of the Blue Sea Villa, the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company was the largest trading company in the Tongxuan Realm. The Lian family relied on the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company in many places. Once they fell out with the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company, just the source of the herbs would be greatly affected.
Unless absolutely necessary, he did not want to sever ties with the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company.
"Young Master Gu, why don't we do this? Once this girl leaves the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company, then you will no longer protect her. She will be at our Lian family's mercy. How about that?"
