Li Yan had no grudge against Hai Fu, and his earlier criticism was already addressed face-to-face. But this Ye Jiahong guy, he seemed to care on the surface, yet belittled him behind his back for his amusement, which Zhang Yurong occasionally revealed. There were certainly more instances like this behind the scenes.
This made Li Yan feel not only disdainful, but also wanting to get back at him. Not avenging an insult is not a gentlemanly act! A gentleman's revenge is never too late, but "in ten years, lovers can eventually become friends," and by then, enemies might turn into friends; wouldn't it be a loss then? So small grievances should be avenged quickly.
"Mr. Ye, did Hai Fu ever offend you before?"
"Well... no." Ye Jiahong hesitated for a moment; he was a bit carried away earlier, but he didn't really consider Li Yan a good friend.
