This really went against the playbook; Gao Guang had no idea how to respond, while Danny felt even more at a loss.
Seeing that John had already pushed open the glass door, Danny quickly gave Gao Guang a meaningful glance.
Gao Guang turned his head away, pretending not to see, because although he could help and take fire for others, he couldn't conspire with someone to trick a friend.
Even though Danny might be more helpful career-wise, Gao Guang was closer to John, so he wouldn't assist Danny in messing with John. The boasts Danny made were up to him to fulfill.
Realizing that Gao Guang was not willing to cover for him, Danny could only raise his voice and say, "Don't regret it when you leave."
Without looking back, John left through the door, leaving Danny somewhat stunned. So, all he could do was turn to Gao Guang and say, "Aren't you going to chase after him!"
