He wasn't unwilling to save people; if it were now, no matter the risk, he would do his utmost to help save them.
But, put in the context of those days.
If An Ziqi were to be caught up in that turmoil, she would have no power to protect herself, and might even implicate her family.
Ending up with the same fate as Jing Yu and their family.
If such a thing really happens, then there would be no meeting, no Ningning, no little Ai.
None of the events between them would ever take place!
Everything of An Ziqi's existence here would be erased, and thoroughly erased from his life too.
Such consequences are intolerable to him!
Uncontrollable murderous intent surged in his heart, but he knew, no matter if what the elder brother at the residence said was true or not, before An Ziqi returned safely, nothing could happen.
A chance is too risky, fearing the slightest possibility.
