Seeing her cautiousness only convinced Lu Jiaxin more of the extraordinariness of these items: "Rest assured, they would give up their lives to protect me, so why would they abscond for a few trinkets?"

Lu Hongjun's face changed dramatically as he asked, "What do you mean they would give up their lives to protect you? Have you been in some kind of trouble?"
