Zhang Chunxue sneered, "A gift for you? Comrade Meng, I told you before that Zhong Chengren is married!"
"He spent our Zhong family's money, which is our joint property!"
"You bought these things with my family's money, and now you want to deny your debt?"
"I'm telling you, Meng Wanshu, today you either return the necklace or give me one hundred and fifty yuan!"
