Chapter 781: Catching in the Act (2)_1
Thinking of this, Mo Qingze pondered his words and reminded gently, "Yun Jin, the Liu Family’s niece will turn sixteen next year, and so Brother Jianan will be able to have her stay at home for the New Year’s Eve dinner."
How could Shen Ji not understand the meaning of these words? His face suddenly turned pale.
