Upon their return, Gu Zhaoming narrowed his eyes, addressing Gu Pei in a hushed tone, "Pei, you mentioned that Long Xiang claims to have the backing of the Wang family?"
Gu Pei affirmed, "Yes, that's what Brother Long asserted. He seemed unperturbed by the threat from our Gu family. I believe there's truth to his claim."

"Soon," Gu Zhaoming replied, his gaze hardening.
The Wang family had not only harmed his daughter, Yangyang, but now they'd also targeted his son. They would pay dearly for their transgressions!
