Ye Qiu spoke to Ye Yanting in an encouraging tone, hoping he could bravely admit his feelings, but Ye Yanting seemed somewhat misunderstood. He even panicked thinking his brother might have discovered something and was purposely testing him.
"It's really nothing, brother. I'm just a bit tired today. Don't worry, elder sister-in-law is safely home," Ye Yanting replied with an expression that showed no hint of anything.
Ye Qiu saw Ye Yanting didn't want to talk and didn't pressure him — he couldn't admit he was being cuckolded himself. Saying it out loud and graciously making them face their own emotions, wouldn't it make him too much of a saint? Perhaps, with Ye Yanting's personality, he might suspect him of having ulterior motives.
For now, let it be this way. Anyhow, the emotions of the male and female leads aren't controllable. Someday they will have to face it, and it won't be too late for him to gracefully step aside then.
