After leaving Gu Yan's room, Shen Mo went straight to his mistress' courtyard, where three maids stood. These maids hadn't slept for two days after their young mistress disappeared and was worried that something had happened to her.
This was the first that Lin Xiaofei was away from them for too long. Ever since they were assigned to serve Lin Xiaofei by Great General Lin's order, they never stayed away from her unless it was inevitable.
They had grown too accustomed to being around their young mistress that just being away from her for an hour would make them flinch with worry. Bai Lu even had nightmares when she couldn't take it any longer and slept before abruptly waking up when the scene that Lin Xiaofei was abducted entered her mind.
Thus, when these three maids saw Shen Mo walking around the corner on his way to the courtyard, they latched on him as if they were some cavemen who didn't get to eat meat for a year.
"Guard Shen!"
