Trial Marriage Husband: Need To Work Hard (Book 3)

503

Doyeon's fever did not subside, so Xia Hanmo began to panic. They couldn't continue ahead, nor could they turn back. Left with no choice, she said to Doyeon, "Lean against here for now, I'll try to start a fire and signal for help."

"Those guys were really a bunch of cowards," Doyeon laughed. "Hanmo, you should go ahead too. Otherwise, both of us will end up being stuck here."

"What nonsense are you speaking. Has the fever made you crazy?" Xia Hanmo helped Doyeon find a comfortable position before she searched for a dry area and began to start a fire.

Doyeon watched Xia Hanmo and suddenly felt that everything was worth it. Even if she had nothing, she at least had friends.

As Xia Hanmo tried to light the fire, she looked at Doyeon. At this moment, a strong and tall figure suddenly jumped out from the woods, making Xia Hanmo jump back in fear. However, as she regained her composure, she noticed the figure kneel down in front of Doyeon, pull out a syringe from his backpack and inject her with antibiotics.

Doyeon was weak, but she still noticed the person that had arrived, "Lucas..."

"It's me," Lucas replied with his usual coldness.

"Why are you here?"

"To look for you," Lucas replied before he lifted her onto his back.

Xia Hanmo immediately ran over to help. She never imagined that someone would risk their life to come look for Doyeon.

This man suddenly looked extra strong and tall. Even though he was originally built to begin with.

"What happened? Where's everyone else?"

Xia Hanmo explained how the others left because they were afraid Doyeon would infect them. As they continued forward, they discussed the current situation amongst them.

"So, those people abandoned Doyeon?" Lucas's voice was extra cold.

Xia Hanmo did not deny it, because it was the truth.

At this moment, Doyeon had already fallen asleep on Lucas's back. But, Xia Hanmo was surprised that Lucas was carrying a live human on his back, yet he was walking more swiftly than she was.

"After we go over this mountain, there's another village on the other side."

"How do you know that?"

Lucas couldn't tell her that he had flown through here on his military jet countless times, so he chose to remain silent.

But, one glance at Lucas and Xia Hanmo could tell that he had a special identity that could not be spoken of, so she did not ask any further.

The trio quickly escaped their dangerous predicament thanks to Lucas taking the lead. As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, Xia Hanmo ran ahead to find a place for Doyeon to rest while Lucas followed behind with Doyeon on his back.

After a nap, Doyeon began to feel a lot better. As she opened her eyes and saw the man that was carrying her, she relaxed and leaned against his back.

"Why did you come? It's dangerous here."

"I told you that I wouldn't let go of you so easily," Lucas replied.

Doyeon felt a little shocked as tears crept out from the corners of her eyes, "I came out here with no intention of telling you about it because I assumed our relationship wouldn't last very long. After all, we both live such busy lives."

"Can't you see that I came here looking for you in the end?" Lucas asked. "When I'm busy, you can come looking for me. And when you're busy, I'll come looking for you. That way things won't fizzle between us."
