"So when does your family think it's a good time to get married? The Zhu family really wants to marry your daughter into their family. Shengping said he's been holding Shiqing back for too long and wants to marry her as soon as possible so she can have peace of mind!"
Whether it was the matchmaker's silver tongue or Zhu Shengping's genuine words, Bai Zhiman showed a satisfied expression upon hearing them.
