Chen Jie laughed upon hearing the words, "Hmm, that's good then."

In Yihong House, a maid addressed Qiao Hongyan, "The brothel owner has found out that White Tiger Hall has placed all of the Blood Extinction in the number eight warehouse located behind Yongchang Street, and our people have discovered that they've assigned extra guards to the warehouse today."
Qiao Hongyan was precisely sitting in front of the dressing table, applying makeup as she glanced at her own reflection in the mirror, a spark of sharpness passing through her eyes.
It was unexpected that Chen Jiusi, who was still an insignificant figure just a year ago, had become one of the big shots of Mianshui County in such a short time that even she had to tread carefully.
"Cough... You may leave now."
Qiao Hongyan opened her powder box, and whether it was the powder that made her cough, she quickly followed with another command to the maid, "Mm, I got it, you may step down."
"Yes, brothel owner."
