Jiang Wei glanced at Lian Sang, who nodded and then leaped up. Before anyone could see clearly, she had already appeared in front of Granny Zhang and closed the door.
She pulled out the long whip hanging from her waist and swung it into the air. With a "crack," everyone was stunned. Granny Zhang and Granny Liu turned pale with fright.
I've never seen Jiang Wei with such a capable person by his side before. Could it be someone sent by the heir of the Marquis of Chang'an?
