Ye Shiqing, who had been silent all along, noticed that everyone's attention was on Ye Xiandong and Cao Shiyu, and he felt it was time for him to voice his thoughts.
He glanced briefly at Cao Shiyu who was crying, and spoke calmly, "While the occasion is lively, let me share something with everyone here. I am quite fond of Qiaoqiao, and I admire her. But since she hasn't divorced my younger brother yet, I consider my love for her unilateral for now. As long as she isn't married, I will not develop a relationship with her beyond friendship."
As soon as Ye Shiqing spoke, he drew everyone's attention.
There is an innate quality of uncompromising righteousness about him that makes his words even more convincing when he is serious.
The reason Ye Shiqing said these things was because he didn't want Qiaoqiao's reputation to be tarnished.
He knew that for a woman, reputation is of utmost importance.
