Quick Wear: Saving the Sickly and Paranoid Villain

The woods are dense, the sky is intoxicatingly blue, the flowers are fragrant, the birds are singing, and occasionally leaves are willing to break away from the branches under the caress of the breeze and dance an unknown dance in the air.

There is always an inexplicable sense of tranquility here, which makes people feel relaxed and happy unconsciously.

Lu Yong and Xu Meir sat by the fire, quietly eating grilled fish. The breeze blew from time to time, ruffling their long hair.

The years are quiet.

After eating and drinking, the two planned to find a way out along the stream. There were two reasons for this:

First, water flows to lower places, and the more it flows, the calmer it becomes. In calm places, there are usually houses or human activities.

Secondly, the stream contains water, food, and other things needed for human survival.

Of course, walking along the stream also has its disadvantages, such as being more likely to encounter wild animals, but it is better to choose the lesser of two evils.

The further they walked, the flatter the road became and the gentler the stream flowed. Lu Yong and Xu Meir supported each other and had already walked quite a distance.

Seeing the stream becoming increasingly gentle, Lu Yong felt that they had reached the edge of the exit, but his years of experience made him vaguely worried.

After a moment's silence, he made a prompt decision and changed their route. They turned a corner and headed towards the jungle.

Soon after they walked back into the dense woods, Lu Yong keenly heard the sound of chaotic and orderly footsteps. Among the mottled shadows of the trees, he saw dozens of people in black clothes.

It's them!

Lu Yong immediately recognized that these people were the same people who attacked the tent, and they were all from the Lost Dragon Cult!

Xu Meir, who was standing by, obviously also saw this scene. She bit her lips tightly and made no sound, but her expression was filled with panic and fear that were difficult to conceal.

Damn it! Seeing Xu Meir's frightened expression, Lu Yong felt even more disgusted with the Lost Dragon Cult.

Lu Yong put his arm around Xu Meir's waist, patted her back gently, and comforted her.

"Don't be afraid."

Xu Meir trembled in Lu Yong's arms. She seemed really scared. She did not push Lu Yong away, but asked him in a low, trembling voice: "Can we still go back alive?"

Lu Yong said firmly: "Of course, I will protect you, and we will definitely be able to return alive!"

His strong arms were around Xu Meir, his chest was broad and strong, and just listening to his strong heartbeat made people involuntarily want to believe everything he said.

The men in black were groping and getting closer.

Xu Meir wanted to turn her head to look in the direction of the man in black, but Lu Yong held her tightly and refused to let go.

"Don't be scared later."

His hands were on her shoulders and he stared at her while she looked up in confusion until he placed a soft kiss on her forehead.

Xu Meir's eyelashes trembled slightly as she stared at Lu Yong blankly.

"Run in that direction, and don't look back no matter what happens. You will definitely come back alive."

Lu Yong held Xu Meir's face and asked her to look in one direction. Then he took off the silver bone whistle from his neck and put it on Xu Meir's fair neck.

The bone whistle is slightly curved, extremely delicate, and as white as frost.

"I have already sent a signal. My people will be here to rescue us soon. Take this bone whistle with you. If you see a group of people wearing blue or red clothes, blow the whistle and you will be safe. Don't be afraid."

Lu Yong himself found it unbelievable. His father and even his mother said that he was selfish and cold-hearted, and he thought so too. However, he was willing to get hurt for someone he had only known for two days.

[Favorability value +10, current favorability value is 32. ]

【Yeah! (?w?)】

736 smiled happily, [The villain's favorability has increased again! ]

[But I have a question. I have been watching the villain these past two days. When did he send the signal? Is he lying to you, Mei'er? ]

"Of course the villain has his own methods. After all, he is the emperor, so he must have some means to protect his life."

【Ahhh.】736 answered in confusion.

"What about you?" After hearing Lu Yong's words, Xu Meir pulled his sleeve and asked anxiously.

Looking at the concern in the girl's eyes, and seeing her bright eyes filled with himself, Lu Yong felt a sweet feeling in his heart. He stroked her black and smooth hair, "I will be safe too."

[Favorability value +2, current favorability value is 34.]

Xu Meir bit her lip and walked quickly away. After walking for a while, she turned back suddenly and saw Lu Yongzheng smiling at her, as if encouraging her.

She ran away and never looked back.
