Xiao Heye took the tea, took a small sip, and said with a gentle expression, "Get up, everyone."
After finishing her tea, Su Tiyue put down her teacup, gently took Fang Ying's hand, and said with a smile, "I've had my tea and the wedding candy, so I wish you a happy marriage and a long and happy life together. Um... and also, may you have a baby soon."
