Caroline’s heart tightened. She called out in panic, “Evan?”
Evan’s furrowed brows twitched.

Caroline called out to him again, seeing that he was still conscious, “Evan? Can you hear me? Answer
me!”
Evan moved his fingers a few times and struggled to open his eyes.
The worry in his eyes gradually disappeared after seeing that Caroline was safe and sound. “Stop
screaming. I’m not dead.”
Caroline’s tears fell uncontrollably. She asked in a choked voice. “Didn’t I tell you to stay away? Why
didn’t you listen?”
Evan smiled bitterly. His voice was low and hoarse as he replied, “I can’t bear to see you disappear
in front of me for the second time
Caroline froze, and her heart skipped a beat at his words.
When she returned to her senses, she wiped away her tears and reached out to help Evan. ‘Sit up
first. Let me see if there are any other wounds.”

After a quick check, Caroline found that the most serious wound on Evan’s body was his arm,
which was seriously injured again.
Although there were some scratches on his leg, there were no fractures. He could still move.
Relieved, Caroline retracted her gaze. Just as she was about to call for help, she realized that her
phone was not with her.
Caroline asked softly, “Evan, do you have your phone with you?”
Evan looked up and asked, “Do you think I thought to take it with me in my hurry to save you?”
Caroline fell silent for a moment.
“Can you still walk?”
They couldn’t stay there. The longer they did, the more susceptible Evan’s arm would be to

Evan nodded slightly and stood up. Due to the severe pain in his leg, he almost stumbled and fell

Caroline hurriedly grabbed Evan’s arm and draped it over her shoulder. “Bear with it. Let’s try taking a
few steps first.”
Evan did not say anything. He sized up Caroline from the corner of his eye. With her support, he took a
few steps before stopping.
Caroline stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the man who was just within arm’s reach.”
What’s wrong? Is your leg hurting?”
“It’s raining.” Evan said calmly. “We shouldn’t look for a way back now. Let’s see if there’s
anywhere nearby that can shelter us from the rain,
Caroline looked up at the gloomy sky and frowned. “Let it rain. It’s more important that we get you back
as soon as possible so we can get your wound treated.”
“If you don’t mind falling a couple more times on the muddy road, I don’t mind if you struggle to bring
me back,” Evan said.
Caroline was at a loss for words
Well, he had a point
Caroline helped Evan sit down again: “Stay here. I’ll go take a look around.”
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Evan reached out and grabbed Caroline. “There’s a
high chance that wild beasts will appear in this forest. Be careful.”
Caroline nodded. “Got it.”
As Evan watched Caroline leave, his face contorted in pain while he raised his hand to cover his
chest

his leg. How could he bear to let her support his weight all the way?
About ten minutes later, Caroline returned
Evan immediately hid the pain on his face.
Caroline regretfully walked over to Evan’s side and sat down. “There’s nothing nearby. Let’s just

Evan leaned against the tree, closed his eyes, and asked softly, “Are you afraid? It’ll get very dark here
at night.”
Caroline shook her head. “I’m not afraid of the dark. I’m just worried we’ll encounter the wild beasts you
mentioned.”
“Hm…” Evan responded to Caroline with a barely audible grunt.
Sensing that something was amiss, Caroline turned to look at Evan. His face was growing increasingly
