It’s not that Lu An didn’t dare to trust himself, he just didn’t dare to believe that Mo Xiao could trust him so much.

You know, dozens of people in the Lu family died at the hands of Mo Xiao. Any normal person would have no resentment towards Mo Xiao, let alone take the initiative to protect Mo Xiao's safety.

Mo Xiao saw Lu An remained silent for a long while, and said with a half-smile: "Why, do you still hold a grudge against me and are unwilling to protect me?"

Lu An didn't say anything, but his eyes moved.

Mo Xiao's words were quite tactful. Instead of asking him whether he was willing to protect him, he should have been on guard against whether he would find an opportunity to hurt Mo Xiao.

Mo Xiao sneered: "Since I dare to use you, I will not be afraid of you."

After a pause, Mo Xiao's tone softened a little. He looked at Lu An and said seriously, "I trust your sister, so I also trust the people she trusts."

"The matter between the Lu family and the Lin family is over. You don't have to be burdened by the Lu family anymore. Just be yourself. Your sister in the palace often said that she hopes you can let go of everything in the past, start over, do what you want to do, and become the person you want to be."

Lu An's eyes began to turn red. After a long while, he whispered with trembling lips: "I understand."

He raised his head and looked at Mo Xiao, saying word by word: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will accept your order."

He took on the responsibility of protecting Mo Xiao.

Mo Xiao nodded and said to Lu An, "Okay, there's nothing for you to do here for now, go down."

Lu An walked out holding the package in his arms. As soon as he left the tent, he raised his hand to wipe the corners of his red eyes.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the package in his arms… This was prepared for him by Lin Jiuqing himself and sent to him from afar.

A lot of things happened in the past that made it impossible for him to stay in the capital, let alone face Lin Jiuqing.

What the Lu family did to the Lin family was unforgivable. If it weren't for the Lu family, the Lin family would certainly not be so miserable. Lin Jiuqing would also be able to have the care of his parents, a happy childhood, and a complete life.

However, the Lu family gave birth to him and raised him. No matter how many evil things they did, they never did anything to let him down.

Therefore, Lu An was caught in the middle, in a dilemma, unable to face both sides. He had no choice but to escape and came to this border thousands of miles away. Here, he changed his name and hid his origins, and was just a soldier with nothing special. Here, no one knew him, no one knew his relationship with the Lu family, and no one knew his relationship with Lin Jiuqing, so he really began to slowly forget the past, forget himself, and just concentrate on being that Lu An.

But how can I forget?

Lin Jiuqing is his only relative in this world.

Lu An took a deep breath and hugged the package in his arms tightly.

He walked forward a few steps, looked up, and ran into Qiuyue holding a tea tray.

Lu An's gaze fell on the person disguised as a man again.

He hadn't looked at her carefully before, but now after taking a few more glances, Lu An discovered that this woman was surprisingly beautiful, and had an extraordinary aura. It was obvious at first glance that she was not an ordinary palace maid.

Lu An frowned and looked at Qiuyue with a cold look.

Qiuyue also sensed the obvious malice and frowned as well.

She didn't remember when she had offended the person in front of her.

Qiuyue frowned and said in a deep voice: "General, you are blocking my way."
