Yu Jiuyuan smiled and stood up, saying, "Of course. Zhang Ma, make some tea."
She deliberately avoided Rong Shenghan's gaze, as well as Ji Nianqin's pointed question.
A promise made when we were children? It was just a joke from our elders.
At that time, she and Ji Nianqin were both young. Their families were old friends and lived close by, so the elders jokingly said that they should become in-laws and even encouraged them to acknowledge the titles of "fiancé" and "fiancée".
Later, Ji Nianqin's entire family immigrated abroad, and the matter was dropped, becoming a thing of the past that no one mentioned again.
