Cen Jie was busy brushing the dust off her body, and it took her a long time to get herself ready.
"Brother-in-law, you must be mistaken. Who would dare to replace the young master of the Marquis of Zhongyi's mansion?" Cen Jie said to him, her imposing manner weakening slightly, her face full of smiles.
