Quan Chengyi's explanation was that what Quan Feifei did was indeed excessive – she hadn't thought it through at all.
Therefore, he had intentionally sent her overseas so that she could learn proper manners and etiquette before considering bringing her back.
During this time, he wanted Quan Feifei to remember this lesson.
Jinbei was noncommittal.
Quan Chengyi's stance was enough; as for how to deal with Quan Feifei…
In his opinion, Quan Feifei didn't need any handling at all.
She was capable of running herself into the ground.
...
Actually, the punishment of "exile" was something Quan Feifei herself had suggested.
Quan Chengyi, although disappointed in his daughter, was still influenced by years of guilt.
Even though he was dissatisfied with her actions, when it came time to really do something to her, he couldn't bring himself to act.
