Yang Ye used to have ambiguous feelings for Qiao Xiaomai, but by the time those feelings arose, Qiao Xiaomai was already with Tong Sanlang.
He felt annoyed and would sometimes tease a bit.
For instance, when Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang got married, he deliberately sent a large number of dowries. This was not only to frustrate Tong Sanlang but also to subtly provoke Qiao Xiaomai.
Later, when Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang had a falling out, he even considered confessing directly.
But it was Qiao Xiaomai's strong and shocking demeanor that frightened him away. He couldn't agree with Qiao Xiaomai's actions; their values were too different, so the confession unspoken rotted away inside him.
At that time, his attitude was indifferent because although he had feelings for Qiao Xiaomai, they weren't very strong.
But it was different with Bei Lingsu.
