At the Crown Prince's arrangement, Wu Chufeng rushed back to the Wu Mansion.
His heart was a nervous wreck the entire way. Though the Crown Prince had dispatched men to protect the Wu Mansion, he still feared for the safety of Ji Xiaosong and his family.
The moment the carriage stopped before the gates, he leaped out impatiently and strode toward the entrance.
The mansion gates stood wide open, where Old Li and a few other servants were looking out expectantly.
As soon as he saw Wu Chufeng, Old Li was overjoyed and rushed forward to greet him. "My Lord! You're finally back! The mistress and everyone in the mansion have been waiting for you!"
A wave of relief washed over Wu Chufeng, but he still asked urgently, "My wife? Is she alright?"
Old Li nodded repeatedly. "The mistress is perfectly fine, just that she's been so worried about you, my lord, these past few days that she can't eat or sleep. You should hurry in and see her!"
