"Tell me, what will Ling Yiran think if she finds out the truth someday?" Master Yi said.
Yi Jinli suddenly smiled, but his eyes were cold. "She'll never know the truth."
Master Yi grunted. "Do you think that's possible? Now that I know, I'm sure one day, she'll also..."
He did not get to finish his sentence before he was interrupted by Yi Jinli. "She'll never know. Right, Grandfather?"
His cold voice spoke at a volume that only the two of them could hear. Master Yi saw a threatening flash in his grandson's eyes.
This grandson of his even dared to threaten him for the sake of a woman? An uneasy feeling welled up in Master Yi's heart.
Would it be true that in the future, his grandson would not be controlled by a woman?
Could things get worse?

Over the weekend, Ling Yiran rode the bus to the hospital where her grandmother was.
Grandmother's ward, however, was crowded with relatives. When they saw Ling Yiran, their faces were filled with all sorts of expressions.
Especially her first uncle, second uncle, third aunt, and their families. They looked at Ling Yiran with fear and hatred.
Her third aunt seemed to refuse to obey and wanted to say something else but was stopped by the other relatives. Several other relatives helped ease the mood. The topic was over.
Her grandmother took Ling Yiran by hand and talked a lot. However, since she was still ill, it was not long before she felt a little tired.
The nurse came in and told everyone to leave so that the patient could rest.
Outside the ward, some of her relatives left first. Ling Yiran's grandfather, Old Man Lu, said, "Although your grandmother's illness is just dragging on, the medical expenses still cost a lot of money. How about this? All of you spread it out, and everyone can just contribute a fraction of it."
Her first uncle, second uncle, third aunt, and their families seemed to have known about this all along. They all looked at Ling Yiran at once.
