After saying this, she turned around and silently counted in her heart: 1...2...3...
She was sure that when she counted to three, Concubine Chang would call her.
She had spent a huge amount of money to buy her back, and everyone in the palace, including the emperor, must have known about it. If she left, it would not be easy to find another woman.
