Chapter 146: Seek Justice

Mrs. Bai had long held a high position, and of course would not fall for my sweet talk, but my obedient and sensible demeanor naturally pleased her.

Despite Mrs. Bai's expression remaining unchanged, Wei Yang's upturned lips revealed her good mood at the moment.

Mrs. Bai frowned, "What happened? You're not the impulsive type."
