Upon seeing the face that bore a striking resemblance to Zhu Mingfeng, Qi Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly as he instinctively asked, "What is Princess Ming Feng to you?"

Zhu Mingyu's face broke into a faint smile as she replied truthfully, "She is my elder sister. Since my sister's whereabouts are currently unknown, to ensure this transaction proceeds smoothly, my father decided to have me take her place as your maid."

As she spoke, she calmly met the man's gaze, her expression earnest as she continued, "Please rest assured, Young Master. Although I am just a stand-in, whatever my sister can do, Mingyu can do as well!"

She wasn't foolish; she understood that the Dao Child of the Supreme Profound Sacred Land hadn't exposed the deception on the spot and had completed the transaction as if nothing had happened, indicating that there was still room for maneuver.
