Chapter 1517 - 1510: Epilogue (1)
She struggled to use her hands to prop herself against the wall until she could finally stand up straight. As soon as she felt a bit better, she immediately rushed outside. However, having not eaten for three days and after that collision, it seemed like the child in her belly also felt uneasy, constantly moving. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and, using the paths she had previously scouted, ran in the opposite direction of her kidnapper.
The moonlight was bleak, and the weather had cooled slightly over the last few days. There was a mist in the mountains and the mountain roads were already complex. Although the fog made it difficult for the kidnappers to pursue, it also slowed her down. She especially could not afford to fall, fearing it might affect her child!
Lu Weixi pressed forward, but she was too hungry; she even grabbed leaves off trees as she ran, chewing them desperately before swallowing them down.
The human body can only survive for a maximum of seven days without food, but she knew she definitely couldn’t last that long. She knew she couldn’t hope for the kidnapper to be slower than her, nor could she rely on Qin Zhiyou to save her. She had to extend her own life, to preserve herself and ensure her child’s safety!
However, running forward blindly like a headless fly was not going to work. After a while, she was horrified to see that there was a cliff ahead. This was a reservoir, with complex terrain. Although it was a man-made reservoir, it originally was a natural barrier lake, hence it was not neatly structured. She couldn’t run forward anymore; besides turning back, there were only two other paths—one leading upward, and one downward.
If she went downwards, she could reach the roadside quickly. This way, even if Qin Zhiyou didn’t arrive, she could still find some food at someone else’s house and then go to the hospital.
