HRPM – Chapter 344 Rescued

Jin Luoluo lay down beside him as well, using her hands as a pillow while gazing up at the blue sky. Gradually, her anxious mood began to ease.

Having this man beside her was like a calming incense that soothed the nerves. No matter how tense she felt, one faint smile from him was enough to make her feel there was no need to worry.

“What you said makes some sense. But I’m still annoyed. To think I’ve ended up in such a miserable state. I’ve never suffered like this in my entire life. Ahh—my back hurts so much. I wonder where the current carried us. Who knows when your subordinates will find us? We need to think of a way to save ourselves.”

Xiao Luo surveyed the surrounding mountains and forests, deep in thought.

“We were probably carried quite far away. The mountains around Panhu Mountain are steep and towering, but the mountains here aren’t very high, and the forest isn’t particularly dense. People probably come here regularly to gather firewood. Let’s wait and see if we run into someone.”

Jin Luoluo’s spirits immediately lifted.

“People? Really? That’s wonderful! To be honest, carrying you out myself would be pretty difficult. My back hurts like crazy. Xiao Luo, remember that there was once a girl who risked her life carrying you while escaping danger. You have to remember this favor—I’m going to collect on it someday.”

Feeling much more relaxed, Jin Luoluo could not help but revert to her merchant instincts.

Saving someone’s life was a tremendous favor.

She had to remind him to repay the debt while she had the chance. Otherwise, if he turned around one day and pretended not to remember, she would have suffered for nothing.

Xiao Luo turned to look at her, his gaze meaningful.

“I will definitely remember it.”

“Ahh! You were right! There really are people gathering firewood on the mountain! Xiao Luo, you’re so smart! We’re saved! We really survived a hopeless situation! Muah!”

Overcome with excitement, Jin Luoluo jumped to her feet, cupped Xiao Luo’s face in both hands, and planted a quick kiss on his cheek.

Then she shouted toward several woodcutters in the distance:

“There are injured people here! Please come help us!”

Xiao Luo watched her excited figure from behind.

Reaching up, he touched the spot on his face where she had kissed him.

A faint blush appeared on his cheeks.

Several kind-hearted woodcutters carried Xiao Luo down the mountain and brought them to a small village at its foot.

The villagers had seen very little of the world. The area was remote, and outsiders rarely came through.

As soon as Xiao Luo and Jin Luoluo arrived, they were immediately treated as honored guests.
