Sure enough, as soon as Aunt Yang heard the news, she came to visit.
She glanced at the child casually before looking away and asked, "Tell me what you're thinking?"
Why would you pick up a girl and raise her with such care, only to have her become someone else's property in the blink of an eye?
Tell me, what are you after?
I think you're just burning money because you have a little cash in your pocket.
