But after finishing, He Yiran also felt something was off. "Your aunt is coming for surgery—what if we scare her to death or something? No, no way. Or maybe we could stage a scene, get a few people to pretend to demand money from you right in front of them, and when they realize those people are your relatives, they'll try to distance themselves from you, and never dare to bother you again.
