"Alright, I'll go tell my aunt later," Su Mengli said with a smile. "I'll have her arrange for someone to deliver them this afternoon."
"Okay." Mo Xiangwen nodded. "I'll transfer the money to you afterward."
Su Mengli paused slightly, her delicate brows knitting together. "It's my aunt's store. It won't cost much."
"Besides, it's for the studio. You really don't need to send me any money."
Your aunt's store? No wonder they knew this place so well, and the staff were so polite to them.
Mo Xiangwen insisted, "Even if it's your aunt's store, that many desks and chairs will still cost a fair bit. I can't let you pay for them."
"I don't have to spend money." Su Mengli shook her head in explanation. "Even if I wanted to pay, my aunt wouldn't accept it."
"Besides, I can tell my dad later and have him reimburse my aunt."
"...Wouldn't that still mean you paid for it?" Mo Xiangwen refused. "How can I let you pay for things for the studio?"
Su Mengli suddenly let out a soft sigh. "Hey, Xiangwen."
"Hm?" Mo Xiangwen looked confused.
"If you keep being so polite with me," she said seriously, "I'm going to get angry."

Mo Xiangwen frowned slightly and pondered for quite a while, but he still couldn't find a suitable reason to persuade her.
Seeing him silent with that expression
