Chapter 1358: Roadblock From Brother-In-Law
Luo Zhanyu raised his eyebrows and questioned him again, "It sounds like you have a plan, correct?"
"Not yet."
There was no way for him to come up with an idea suddenly. Luo Zhanyu did not know whether he should be worried or happy. "Since you are unable to help at the moment, how can you guarantee her a grand ceremony if you aren’t even able to find a way out of here at the moment?
