"Really?!" Luo Yingyue looked Song Qirui up and down with a hint of doubt before speaking with a hint of disbelief: "Then you'd better keep your word. Don't come up with some excuse to stand me up on that day!"
"Don't worry, my dear wife, it's just a few sets of jewelry! Such a small matter, why would I go back on my word?!" Song Qirui laughed heartily, in a very good mood, and continued to coax Luo Yingyue.
