tely turned around to run over. Everyone else instantly forgot everything else.How is my fifth sisterFang Jinxiu smiled, "If you don't have confidence in me, why did you ask me to come back and work""..."Your Highness, please rest assured, I will pay attention to the safety of Jinshu Mountain Villa."

Fu Shangyuan was still a little uneasy. Dong'er, although he had persuaded her to stay at Jingwangfu on the grounds that she was still young and her studies were unfinished, would always run back to the manor as soon as she had a holiday.

Judging from her current demeanor, it seems highly unlikely that she will return to the Duke's Residence.

Such a large manor, situated in the remote wilderness.

To be blunt, if Yuan Buyu had a bit more guts, he could simply hire a group of assassins to silently eliminate Fang Jinxiu and the rest.

He's just being cautious now, plus he hasn't figured out if Fang Jinshu still has any tricks up her sleeve.

"Madam Fang, the mercenaries you bought from the Ya Xing are of varying quality. You'll need time to tame them into being loyal to you."

Disciplineing subordinates is also a skill, it's not something you can just buy and use at will. It takes time to train and adjust.

But Fan Jinshi doesn't have that time now, and she knows it herself very well.

"I happen to have a suitable candidate right here. He is both highly skilled in martial arts and adept at management. Why don't I send him to you He could help you through this difficult period."

Fāng Jǐnxiù frowned. She didn't like owing people too many favors.

But right now she did need someone like this, a little unable to refuse the King of Jing's proposal.

"Dong'er often went to the manor to stay for a while. Lady Fang, you needn't feel that this is a great favor from this king. He's just an underling. This king does this all for Dong'er's safety."

Fang Jinshu nodded.

"Very well, then many thanks to your Majesty."

"No matter who it's for, I've taken note of this favor."

She had a feeling that King Jing's sudden favor towards her couldn't possibly be just because of Dong'er.

The carriage arrived at the largest dental clinic in the capital city. The shop was bustling with activity, and every customer entering or leaving looked either wealthy or like a servant.

"A dental clinic also needs a good reputation. If the reputation is bad, it's impossible to make the clinic this big."

"Come in."

Fang Jinxiu glanced at him, "I didn't expect Prince Jing to understand these things."

Fu Shangyu just smiled, raised his foot and walked towards the shop first.

As soon as he appeared, the manager of the dental clinic scurried over with utmost respect and humility.

"My Lord, what brings you to the dental office today I already submitted this month's accounts to Steward Fu."

Fang Jinshu was astonished.

"An ledger So this dental practice actually belongs to the prince."

Fu Shangyuan didn't intend to hide it anyway, he nodded in acknowledgment.

"Yes, anyway, Madam Fang needs manpower. It's better for this king to earn this money than let someone else earn it."

After all, we know each other well.

Fang Jinshi wore a speechless expression, who knew him best.

"Having said that, just now in the carriage, the Wangye said he would send me someone to use, presumably this person is also in the dental field."

Fu Shangyuan smiled but said nothing, not denying it.

"Well, Your Highness truly has a masterful hand at playing the abacus. You not only made a profit from me but also managed to make me feel indebted and grateful to you."

"Knowing your roots and origins, you'd still scheme against me like this"

Fu Shangyu said, "How can this be called scheming"

"As I said, Fang, you don't have to think of this as a favor. This is all for the safety of the children, wouldn't you agree"

Damn it, Fang Jinshu actually couldn't refute.

For the first time in so many years, she tasted defeat on her lips.

"Alright, Your Highness says whatever it is, that's what it is. As for how much silver that person is worth, Your Highness just name the price, I won't take advantage of you."

Fang Jinshu finished speaking and raised her foot to walk inside. King Jing smiled and gave the steward a wink.

"Go arrange it."

His attendant followed him, taking care of the dental affairs together.

There was a private courtyard in the dental clinic, prepared exclusively for Fu Shangyuan. He brought Fang Jinshu here and sat on a bench in the courtyard, sipping tea.

Fang Jinxiu was angry with King Jing for scheming against her. Too lazy to deal with him, she didn't say another word after entering the door.

She wouldn't fall into the trap of a self-righteous scolding towards King Jing for engaging in this human trafficking. She had long since understood, at her core, the fundamental differences between this world and the one she once knew.

Some things, she can never change after all.

Since we can't change it, there's no need to dwell on it and waste our energy.

"My lord, everyone has arrived."

In a little while, the foreman and the attendant returned. King Jing nodded to let them bring the person in.

Fang Jinshi only then raised her head, her gaze fixed on the entrance of the courtyard.as soon as Fang Jinshu just stood up, she grabbed the sleeve and followed.Fang Jinxiu walked to the gate of the courtyard and shouted towards the direction of the manor."Little Flower!"Mrs. Mu also wa...
