"Back then, the Marquis promised me that he would only love me for the rest of his life."
"Didn't you decide who your concubines were?" the Marquis of Zhenbei retorted.
"Besides that, would the Marquis break his oath?"
Ye Lanyin forcefully suppressed the heaviness and hatred in her heart and looked at him with a smile.
“My love, my heart is with you. How could I break my vow?” He smiled, but his eyes did not convey his true feelings.
"If I break this oath, may I die a horrible death." He raised his hand and swore.

The Marquis of Zhenbei had originally planned to ask Ye Lanyin to contribute some money to supplement the household expenses, but after hearing her words, how could he possibly bring it up again?
