They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 320: Just a Coincidence

“Yes, you do,” the Love System replied. “Just don’t waste them. Survive, improve, and make sure you are out of that forest in less than two months. That is your best shot.”

“Got it,” Nnenna whispered.

Her fingers clenched into fists at her sides.

“We plan to be out in a few weeks… if all works well.” Nnenna sighed and rubbed her eyes. “I pray it does.”
