Those who knew Wang Xiaolong could tell from the beginning that he was deliberately teasing Yun and others.
Because Li Qiao'er had been good to him.
Out of gratitude and their relationship, he would rather risk his own life than let Li Qiao'er suffer the slightest grievance.
Given that, how could he possibly hand her over to someone else?
However, those in the scene didn't really understand him.
Even including Li Qiao'er, they all thought he had just made a foolish mistake.
However, seeing him suddenly take action, that prejudice dissipated.
Li Qiao'er had already told him that Yun and the others were not to be trifled with, yet he had still lashed out because of the insults Yun had just hurled at him.
This act of seeking vengeance regardless of his own safety moved Li Qiao'er deeply, and a genuine smile emerged in her eyes as she looked at Wang Xiaolong.
But while some rejoiced, others were troubled.
