"Yes, Mrs. Shi!" Xingzhi respectfully replied.
"What do you mean by this, big sister!" Gu Fangzi was furious, as the punishment intended for Xingzhi was a clear slap in her own face.
Sang Wan smiled and said, "The maids do not understand the rules; they even dare to slack off without reporting, let alone other matters? I've long wanted to discipline them, but what about you, little sister, asking me like this—what do you mean by that!"
Gu Fangzi stared at Sang Wan in disbelief, filled with amazement. In her wildest dreams, she had not expected that the always courteous and gentle Sang Wan would show such a tough side. With Shi Fengju away, she did not care about anyone else in this estate. With her clever tactics, couldn't she do whatever she wanted? As for Sang Wan, she cared even less! In her view, what could someone with such a weak and gentle nature do?
