After asking around, Su Mo and the others finally learned what had happened.

The man was called Yu Yifan. This courtyard originally belonged to his family too, but his parents' business failed and they became seriously ill, so they sold the courtyard to the Li family.

The courtyard could have been sold for a good price originally. But the Li family pressed down the price, and other interested buyers didn't dare compete with the Li family either, so the Li family bought the courtyard at a low price.

Later, Yu Yifan's parents' illnesses did not get cured, and they passed away one after the other.

"This is the place where we grew up since we were young. My sister and I wanted to buy back this courtyard, but we don't have that much silver. So we came up with this idea of pretending there were ghosts here, so no one would dare to live here, and the Li family would sell the courtyard at a low price," Yu Yifan said.

"You have a sister too?" Sang Li asked, "Then where is your sister?"

Yu Yifan lowered his eyes, "She...is at Tianxiang Building."

"What is Tianxiang Building?" Su Mo asked instinctively.

"A brothel," Wu Ying supplemented.

Su Mo looked at Wu Ying unpleasantly, "You're so knowledgeable about this? Have you been there before?"

"..." Even if he hadn't been there before, he still knew it was a brothel!

Su Mo glared at Wu Ying. Her expression seemed to say, [You wait for me!]

"..." Alright, he shouldn't have spoken.

"Why is your sister at a brothel?" Sang Li asked.

"At that time, we didn't even get much money for selling this courtyard. It wasn't enough for my parents' medical treatment. My sister went there to earn money, because she said that was the fastest way to make money." There was a hint of choking in Yu Yifan's voice, "But my parents still passed away..."

"But it's still wrong for you to pretend to be a ghost to scare people," Sang Li said, "What if someone with a heart condition got scared to death by you?"

Yu Yifan thought of how someone had indeed been scared to death by him before, and he had felt very guilty about it then.

"Don't do things like this anymore. We'll live here now. Of course, if you have nowhere to go, you can also live here yourself!"

Yu Yifan didn't speak. His tricks had been exposed, so of course he couldn't drive them away now.

Just then, Xiao Han and Xia Miaomiao came out. When Yu Yifan saw them, he immediately stood up.

"How is it? Is Xiao Hei okay?" Yu Yifan hurriedly asked.

"Don't worry, since I'm the one who treated it, it must be fine!" Xiao Han said.

Yu Yifan finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you. Can I go see it?"

"Let me treat your shoulder wound first!" Xiao Han said, walking over with a medicine box.

After Xiao Han finished treating his wound, he immediately went inside to see Xiao Hei.

"Rest first. We'll deal with this Yu Yifan situation tomorrow," Sang Li said.

"Humph!" Su Mo glared at Wu Ying, then immediately got up and returned to her room.

"..."

Sang Li looked at Wu Ying and asked, "Did you really go to a brothel before?"
