He spoke the last four words slowly and deliberately, his words full of teasing about the two people.
"She is Xiaoran, you can just call her by her name." Qiao Muting was completely acting according to the girl's wishes, which made Zhu Yong and the others think that he was indeed her "sister-in-law".
