Chapter 258: A pair of identical cupids
"What did you just say?" The request shocked Li Yuming and, even without waiting to hear Luna repeat her words, she looked at her in disbelief before shaking her head. "I’m sorry. I cannot do that. Anything but this."

"I said I can’t." Li Yuming decided to be stern about it or she wouldn’t be able to say no.
Just before she could turn and rush away to avoid being pleaded anymore, Luna held her wrist. Li Yuming looked back to see the corners of Luna’s eyes glistening with moisture.
"You said you wouldn’t say no to whatever I ask. But when I ask, you say no without batting an eyelid..."
