Vocabulary question - prompt

Dear Users,

I was wondering if the following sentence used at the end of an email is OK and not too pushy:

Looking forward to your prompt reply.

Thank you

It's a little pushy, but whether it's appropriate depends on your relationship with the addressee.

Got a reply from this person just a few minutes ago. It says: I hope this is prompt enough for you.

I guess she didn't like my email.
