Xiao Chengyu only brought Jing Lai with him on this journey.
The rest were guards arranged by Emperor Jiawen.
The servants in the mansion now were sent by Hu Pingcheng, and once she and Xiao Chengyu returned to the capital, they would have no further dealings with these people.
Fu Shinian had no intention of recklessly putting innocent lives at risk, adding to the burden of karma.
In the past, Fu Shinian might not have cared about these things.
But now, she understood the consequences and could accumulate fortune for the family and Xiao Chengyu.
Thus, Fu Shinian became even more cautious, fearing that any misstep might diminish the fortune of her family and Xiao Chengyu.
It was just as Fu Shinian had predicted.
Once she spoke, no one dared to step forward.
Everyone valued their lives more, unwilling to be infected needlessly.
Everyone knew that taking care of Xiao Chengyu meant inevitable infection.
"Second miss!" Jing Lai came running over.
"Jing Lai, why are you here?"
