The Ye Family members all had a stubborn streak, and Ye Xiandong was no exception. The harder something was to achieve, the more he wanted to do it; the more unattainable a goal seemed, the more he desired to achieve it.
During the time Ye Xiandong spent day and night with Qiao Qiao, he found himself becoming increasingly dependent on her. He knew this wasn't a good sign, yet he couldn't control his heart that kept drawing closer to Qiao Qiao.
What he didn't know was that the household servants were spies placed by Ye Shiqing, who reported their activities to him every day.
After hearing the servants' reports that day, Ye Shiqing couldn't sit still any longer.
The servants mentioned that Ye Xiandong's gaze towards Qiao Qiao was unusual and that he was increasingly dependent on her, which clearly indicated his romantic feelings for Qiao Qiao.
If this continued, it would be even harder for Qiao Qiao to escape Ye Xiandong once he truly stood up for himself.
