Li Chunqiu caught the drift of the conversation and felt something was off. Smiling, she replied, "It's just that... I’ve been a bit busy, that’s why I’m asking. If you’d just speak clearly, wouldn’t that be better? If Yingying has done something wrong, I will certainly punish her—punish her severely. I won’t tolerate it one bit!"
Lin Xuan stared at Li Chunqiu. "Do you really mean that?"
Li Chunqiu looked at him with an expression of complete sincerity. "Don't you understand what kind of person I am by now? If it is truly Yingying's fault, I certainly won't shield her."
