Chapter 447

The skies were about to dim . Lu Jinnian looked at the cliff—it was much lower than near their filming location . This meant that the more they flowed, the nearer they’d be to the land .

Lu Jinnian took a glance at the unconscious Qiao Anhao before continuing to swim downwards .

He had no idea how far they had gone . With the faint light from the moon, he saw that the distance to the land was indeed much shorter . When the distance was less than half a meter and the current was starting to slow, Lu Jinnian pushed Qiao Anhao onto shore before climbing up after .

He applied pressure on her stomach to force out all the water she had drank . When he saw that she hadn’t drank much, he sighed in relief . He reached out to feel her forehead to ensure that she wasn’t having a fever before checking her breathing . When he confirmed that everything was all right, he finally relaxed .

Lu Jinnian took in the surroundings—it was an untouched forest . He reached into his pocket and found his phone, a box of deformed cigarettes, and a lighter .

The phone was no longer functional after being soaked for such a long time, but the lighter could still be used .

He took a look at Qiao Anhao’s soaked clothes . If she were to continue wearing them, she would definitely catch a cold . He didn’t know when help would arrive, and if she were to fall ill here, it would become serious . A primitive forest was dry, so he couldn’t light a flame for it would easily cause a forest fire .

Lu Jinnian pondered for a while before carrying Qiao Anhao into the forest to find shelter .

Using purely his instincts, he headed in a random direction .

Luckily the moon was bright, sending light into the forest, allowing him to see the way . .

The forest was filled with dried leaves which cracked with his every step .

When Qiao Anhao finally opened her eyes, she was still in a daze . Where was she right now?

She lifted her head and looked around . When she saw that she was in a forest, she frowned before recalling what had happened . She had fallen into the stream while filming and then had thought that she was about to die . That thought sent a shiver through her even now .

Lu Jinnian seemed to have sensed her movements . He turned but couldn’t see her face clearly, so he lightly asked, “Qiao Qiao?”

When she heard his voice, her frown deepened .

Why was he here? Was she dreaming?

Lu Jinnian waited for a while . When she didn’t reply, he asked again, “Qiao Qiao, are you awake?”

When she heard him once more, she came back to her senses, remembering what had happened . When she was about to give up, she had felt someone hug her . At that time, she seemed to have thought it was just a hallucination . . .

She realized that Lu Jinnian had saved her, but she still couldn’t process what had happened, asking in a daze, “Lu Jinnian, is that you?”
