"What happened?" She looked at Guxing.

Guxing said, "Whenever I come out to do things, there's always someone to clean up afterwards."

"Who cleans up?"

"Seventh Miss hasn't seen them."

"Are they part of the same group as you?"

"You could say that."

"...Impressive." Jiang Ning didn't know what else to say.

It seems that Jiang Mubai had been adopting homeless orphans from all over the country more than a decade ago, raising them together, and training them in different skills.
