Chapter 1377 - 1373: Just Want to Pin Her Against the Birch Tree and Kiss Her Hard
Chloe Winston led Desmond Wood along the path in the woods, walking cautiously and carefully. Indeed, there was no water source in this area, the climate was stuffy, and after walking for a long time, the three of them were coated with a thin layer of sweat.
"Chloe, we can’t even find a depression here, let alone a water source. Do we still need to keep searching?" Desmond Wood asked worriedly as the sky grew darker.
"Yes, let’s go a little further. If we’re unlucky and can’t find anything, we’ll head back." Chloe slashed a slender bamboo along the way to serve as a hiking stick for Desmond, and continued moving forward.
The three faced serious expressions while searching for a water source, and the viewers in the live stream were anxious. It was about to be dark.
Luo Yi’s fans and trolls seized the opportunity to sneer coldly online, "Is this the goddess you’ve praised to the skies? She’s not only being reckless herself, but also dragging Desmond and the following photographer into danger. Can she take responsibility if anything goes wrong?"
"Exactly, Chloe is really overestimating herself. The guide mentioned that it takes an hour to find a water source in this area. Could she be more skillful than the guide?"
"Heh, lacking basic common sense, she’s just wandering around the forest with a music king, courting death."
"A newbie desperate for fame, always trying to outshine."
"Big boobs, no brains, and still wants to be a hero?"
Countless trolls emerged in the live stream, the public opinion was overwhelmingly negative, even Desmond’s fans were somewhat indignant, feeling that if it weren’t for Chloe dragging their idol around, their guy wouldn’t be stuck in a dangerous forest as dark approached.
Chloe’s fans stood up to speak for their idol but were instantly drowned out by the massive number of trolls.
While the live stream was in an uproar, Chloe and her team finally discovered the birchwood forest in the jungle in front of the camera.
Chloe breathed a sigh of relief; fortunately, luck was on her side. Earlier, she had noticed a couple of birch trees and speculated that there might be a birchwood forest nearby. These trees are mostly found in the north and Russia, but they can also form a whole copse in the dense forests of the Southwest Region.
She wasn’t searching for a water source; she was looking for the birchwood forest.
"Desmond, give me the bamboo stick I cut for you earlier." Chloe said with a smile, revealing two adorable dimples.
"Alright, alright, Chloe, is this a birch tree? Weren’t we looking for a water source?" Desmond hurriedly stepped forward to give her the bamboo stick.
Chloe used the Swiss Army Knife to chop the bamboo stick into segments, cutting a sharp bamboo tip, then chose a birch tree over 20 cm thick, cutting open the bark while inserting the bamboo into the branches, explaining, "Birch sap can be consumed directly, it’s rich in essential amino acids needed by humans and various trace minerals. After drinking, it can suppress coughs, remove phlegm, and has antibacterial effects, better than pure water. In Scandinavia, birch sap has been a skincare product for beauty, and Finns have used birch sap for skincare since ancient times."
"Our luck is good, it’s currently spring. Every year from mid-March to mid-April is the birch sap harvesting period, and this birchwood forest is little-known and untouched." Chloe gave Desmond a sweet smile and softly said into the camera, "That’s why everything is the best arrangement."
Crystal-clear birch sap flowed out from the sharp bamboo tip into the water jug. As the sun set westward, visibility in the forest decreased, and the sunset’s last rays bathed the birchwood forest. The girl in front of the camera seemed to be enveloped in a gentle glow, mesmerizingly beautiful.
Desmond and the accompanying cameraman gasped, while in the live stream, everyone watched the beautiful sunset, the birchwood forest, and the sweetly smiling girl in front of the camera, then they broke out into frenzied screams after a brief silence.
"Ahhhhhh, my lovely sister is so beautiful it makes me cry."
"The goddess was right. I just googled it; indeed, birch sap can be harvested and drunk directly."
"In the Victorian era, the Queen of the United Kingdom used birch sap for beauty."
"There are specific beauty brands in Europe that use birch sap as their main ingredient."
"Oh my god, I can’t, I’m so excited like a fool, my mom even thinks I’ve gone crazy, the goddess is really amazing."
"This is our idol, who can carve a path in any adversity, no food? No water? No supplies? Not a problem with Chloe. Compared to those guests who just sit back enjoying the show, out of recording because of a twisted ankle, haha, my lovely sister is so excellent, thanks for the contrast."
"Hahahahaha, completely thanks to the contrast with peers, no mistake, anyone who dares to mock my lovely sister for being brainless with big boobs, I guarantee I won’t let him off."
"I can’t, as a staunch casual fan, I must control myself, but Chloe’s operation was heavenly, I’m bowing, sob, sob, I’m becoming a loyal fan now."
"Illusion World’s millions of players send congratulations, hail to the goddess who moved from the gaming world to the entertainment sector, rising to fame overnight."
The viewers’ mood in the live stream was high, the trolls and hired commenters were cowardly and dared not show.
Meanwhile, the birch sap collection in front of the camera was quick. Desmond looked at the water jug filled with birch sap, still unable to gather his thoughts.
"Chloe, what is your brain made of? How do you know everything?" Desmond said, still in a daze. "It’s filled so quickly?"
"A birch tree over 20 cm thick can yield 20 kg of sap in a day, so if we have enough time, we can collect much more." Chloe smiled gently, "As for knowing these things, isn’s it a matter of common sense?"
Desmond felt overwhelmed, unable to speak with all this knowledge. He was clueless, really.
Seeing his distressed expression, Chloe chuckled and said, "Don’t fret, quickly collect as much as possible, and try to return before it gets completely dark. The birch sap we’ve collected is enough for twenty people to make it through tonight and tomorrow morning. Once we reach the next water source, there won’t be any concerns about water."
Desmond hurriedly went forward, mimicking Chloe’s actions, filling everyone’s water jug. Meanwhile, Constantine Stewart finally arrived under the guide’s lead, having watched the entire live stream journey, observing the collection of birch sap, and the safe and sound girl. He couldn’t help but want to press her against a birch tree and kiss her fiercely.
Viewers in the live stream were originally excitedly watching Chloe collect birch sap, but then a handsome face appeared in front of the camera. When Constantine Stewart’s tall figure came into view, the viewers felt an overwhelming sweetness.
Mr. Stewart, the strongest of the team, came to meet Chloe, ahhhhhhh, why is it that watching a survival show feels like consuming a mouthful of dog food?
No wonder it’s called "Let’s Fall in Love," the show’s name makes perfect sense.
