I can't stop thinking about this, because it's not actually that insane. The problem the first time Qingyi went to prison, and why his brother is right to feel guilty, is because both the Murong and Li families rejected Qingyi so publicly that the Huo family didn't think there would be any consequences for abusing him. Which is why that awful Li father was also correct that they weren't protecting Qingyi properly and it was an insult to both of their families.
But now that Qingyi knows his brother will defend him, and Qingyu has defended him in public multiple times, Qingyi's immunity is getting stronger (everyone just lets him kill those grunts in front of the police) but he's also just using it to do more insane things. Before, when he didn't have support, he was more cautious. Well somewhat, because he's always set his own safety at zero.
Qingyu trying to protect Qingyi is totally backfiring. It's like now that he knows he has a seat belt he's ignoring the fact that going 200km an hour is still dangerous, seat belt or not. He's like those asshole scion characters who do whatever they want because they know their father will cover for them, except he's not going to brothels or beating servants, he's trying to help a girl murder people.
