Feeling the amazing softness on his lips, Lu An suddenly opened his eyes and looked in front of him in shock.
Shuang 'er … kissed him!
Lu An's heart jumped and she hurriedly tried to escape, but Shuang 'er was one step ahead of her. She looked at Lu An with a flushed face.
"Shuang 'er, you …" Lu An looked at Shuang' er in a panic and suddenly stood up.
"Brother Lu …" Shuang 'er's face was flushed and her heart was beating wildly. She took a deep breath and said in a panic, "Shuang' er wanted to give you a gift, but after looking for a long time, I didn't know what to give you, so I could only give you this. This is Shuang 'er's first kiss …"
"…" Lu An opened his mouth wide and looked at Shuang 'er in surprise, not knowing what to say.
"Brother Lu, is this also your first kiss?" Shuang 'er looked up and asked Lu An expectantly.
"…" Lu An was stunned and then his face turned red. He scratched his head but still nodded and said, "Yes."
"That's good!" Shuang 'er suddenly laughed and said, "Then Brother Lu also gave me a gift!"
Looking at Shuang 'er's young and innocent face, Lu An didn't know what to say, but he couldn't get angry and could only shake his head and say, "Shuang' er, don't be like this in the future, okay?"
"En! If Brother Lu says so, I will definitely listen! " Shuang 'er smiled happily and said, "It's getting late, I'm going back to sleep. Good night Brother Lu!"
After saying that, Shuang 'er skipped out of the room. Lu An stared blankly at Shuang' er's back as she left, his whole body standing motionless.
After a while, Lu An's face turned even redder.
He stretched out his fingers and felt the burning temperature on his face, his heart was also flustered. After all, he was only a boy who was not even thirteen years old, how could he have experienced this kind of thing?
After taking a few deep breaths, Lu An calmed himself down. When he thought of Shuang 'er, he didn't expect that someone would like him.
When he was a slave, he thought that he would never have the fate to belong to him. Now that he was suddenly confessed to, he really didn't come back to his senses for a moment.
Turning his head to look out the window, Lu An looked at the empty garden and shook his head with a bitter smile. Although Shuang 'er had feelings for him, the two of them were still too young. It was very likely that they didn't understand love.
Moreover, he still had to go to the Dacheng Sky Mountain, so he had no time to think about such things.
Lu An shook his head and sat down again. But when he sat down, he suddenly remembered something. He quickly got up and said to the window, "My coat …"
However, when he thought of the cold night outside, Lu An was startled and laughed self-mockingly.
Looks like I still can't stay calm all the time!

The next morning.
Lu An woke up early, had a simple breakfast, and then went to the main courtyard. At this moment, Madam Liu and a group of servants were waiting. Shuang 'er was also by Madam Liu's side.
"Madam Liu." Lu An walked in front of Madame Liu, cupped his fists and said, "I'll be staying here for the next few days, please forgive me if I've disturbed you."
"Young hero Lu is too polite. This concubine can't thank you enough." Madam Liu looked at the modest and polite Lu An and her heart was full of joy. She smiled and said, "Young hero, if you have time, you must come back and see me!"
Lu An smiled and said, "Certainly."
Madam Liu gently waved her hand, and the accountant immediately walked out of the crowd. He was holding a box in his arms. After opening it, he found that it was full of gold coins.
"Young hero Lu, this is a little gift from Madam Liu." The accountant said, "Young hero Lu has done a favor for our Liu family. Please accept it. Don't be polite!"
Lu An looked at the box full of gold coins. This box probably had more than a thousand coins. He quickly looked at Madam Liu and said, "Madam Liu, isn't this too much of an outsider?"
"Don't be an outsider. You saved us. If we don't express our gratitude, then wouldn't the Liu family be petty?" Madam Liu said with a smile, "This is just a little gift. It doesn't represent my gratitude at all. Young hero Lu, please don't refuse. "
"This …" Lu An was a little embarrassed, but the accountant had already placed the box in front of him. Madam Liu's expression showed that there was no room for negotiation. He could only nod and say, "Then I'll accept it. Thank you, Madam Liu."
After speaking, Lu An put the box into his spatial ring. Surrounded by the people of the Liu family, Lu An came to the door. After getting on the horse, he once again cupped his fist and said to Madam Liu, "Madam Liu, we'll meet again someday!"
"Young hero, we'll meet again someday!" Madam Liu bowed and said.
Lu An looked at Shuang 'er, who was standing beside Madam Liu and staring at him. From the beginning until now, her line of sight had never moved away from him. Moreover, tears were swirling in her beautiful eyes.
Taking a deep breath, Lu An revealed a smile and said to Shuang 'er, "Miss Shuang' er, I'm a person who keeps my promises. I'll definitely come back to see you!"
Shuang 'er was startled. Then, a happy smile appeared on her face. She nodded vigorously, but she could no longer control her tears.
Madam Liu looked at her daughter in astonishment. In an instant, she understood her daughter's thoughts.
"Jia!" Lu An waved his whip and shouted. Then, under the gazes of the crowd, he walked further and further away until he disappeared at the end of the street.
Madam Liu looked at Lu An's receding figure and couldn't help but sigh.
She didn't know whether to be happy or sad that her daughter had fallen in love with such a young man.

After leaving the Liu family, Lu An urged his horse and rushed to the Shenwei Escort Agency. He had promised Escort Leader Pu that he would make a trip to the Shenwei Escort Agency before he left. A man's word was worth nine pounds. He wouldn't go back on his word.
Lu An inquired about the location of the Shenwei Escort Agency and quickly arrived in front of the agency. Looking at the majestic and dignified entrance of the Shenwei Escort Agency and the two guards standing at the entrance, Lu An felt that the agency had a lot of power.
After dismounting, Lu An came to the entrance and cupped his fist and said to the two guards, "I'm Lu An, here to see Escort Leader Pu."
Escort Leader Pu?
The two guards looked at each other. One of them said to Lu An, "Wait here for a moment. I'll go and report!"
After saying that, one of them entered the door. He didn't let Lu An wait for too long and returned quickly. His attitude was obviously much better. He cupped his fist and said to Lu An, "Young Hero Lu, please come in!"
"Thank you," Lu An said.
Following behind the guard, Lu An walked through a long corridor. There were open spaces on both sides of the corridor. In the open spaces, there were armed escorts practicing with swords and spears. There were also people practicing. Soon, Lu An arrived at the largest courtyard. This courtyard was filled with wooden stakes and weapons. There were even more people practicing.
Following the guard, Lu An looked at these people curiously. These people also stopped and looked at Lu An. Soon, Lu An entered the hall and found a middle-aged man sitting at the head of the table waiting for him.
Seeing Lu An arrive, the middle-aged man immediately stood up and looked at Lu An from head to toe. He then cupped his fist and said loudly, "You must be Young Hero Lu, right? I've heard about you from Old Pu. Seeing you today, you're even younger than I thought! "
Lu An was startled to see this person whom he had never seen before. However, he still cupped his fist and said, "Greetings, senior. May I know where Escort Leader Pu is?"
"Him? He's out on an escort mission. He won't be back for a few days!" The man said loudly, "I'm the head of Shenwei Escort Agency. If you don't mind, you can call me Big Brother Chen!"
"Oh, it's Head Master Chen. Forgive me for my lack of manners." Lu An quickly said, "I'm here to bid farewell to Escort Leader Pu. Since he's not here, I'll have to ask Head Master to pass on my message."
The Head Master was stunned and asked, "You're leaving?"
"Yes, I'm leaving today," Lu An said with a wry smile.
"So soon!" The Head Master looked regretful and shook his head. "Actually, I wanted you to spar with my useless subordinates and teach them a lesson. Can't you leave a day later?"
Lu An shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I really have something to do."
"Ah, forget it then!" The Head Master sighed helplessly and shook his head. He said loudly, "By the way, Old Servant asked me to prepare a Ferghana horse for you. It can travel a thousand miles in a day! You saved Old Servant and so many of my subordinates. This is my reward for you! "
Then, just as Lu An was about to say something, the Head Master raised his hand and said, "Men, bring the horse here!"
Soon, a horse was brought to the courtyard. This was a very tall black horse. Just by looking at it, it gave off an extremely powerful feeling.
"Young Hero, get on the horse!" The Head Master said with a smile.
Looking at the Head Master's expression, Lu An did not refuse. He really needed a fast horse. He walked to the horse and jumped on it.
"Young Hero Lu, I heard from Old Pu that you're going to the Dacheng Sky Mountain, right?" The Head Master looked up and asked.
Lu An was stunned. He nodded and said, "Yes."
"Then please pass a message to my son, Chen Wen." The Head Master smiled and said, "Say that his mother misses him."
