Rebirth of Chen An

Chapter 112: Unforgettable Past (1)

"Diesel oil and water are mixed together. Neither of them could be used. Our freshwater reserves are running out and the weather is hot. If we continue like this, we will begin to suffer from dehydration. Tomorrow I will go to the island to see if there are any rivers or shallow water banks and see if we can catch some fish."

After dinner, Ivanov put the washed dishes back into the cupboard. Although there was not enough freshwater, fortunately, he brought a lot of wine and soda before this trip. With these, the water reserves could last for a while.

Ivanov's heart began to rejoice at the thought that Chen An had to drink for the next few days.

"I'll go with you tomorrow morning." Chen An seemed to have recovered. His face was not as pale as moments ago. At least, now he looked no different from usual, quiet and calm. It was hard to imagine he would show fragility and uneasiness.

They were all tired today and had to get up early tomorrow, soon after dinner, they just returned to their rooms to rest.

The sailing ship swayed gently with the waves, just like a mother rocking the cradle gently to coax the child to sleep.

Chen An was really envious of the bear next door. Just lying down for a while, he instantly heard the steady and long breathing of Ivanov. Indeed, people with thick nerves slept well.

Chen An tried to calm himself down. With the sound of the waves at night, he slowly closed his eyes. Between dreams and awakenings, he seemed to come to the past that deeply buried in his heart which he refused to recall.

Fierce gunfire rang out in the dense jungle, and the two sides fell into standoff. Many comrades fell down, leaving only him and Chang Le.

"No-"

Accompanied by a gunshot, the young man suddenly rushed to his front slowly fell down.

"Chang Le, Chang Le, hold on, hold on please! I will take you away. I will take you away immediately!"

Carrying the bleeding young man on his back, he kept running forward. He did not know how long he had been running or where he was going. The sound of gunfire behind him decreased, only the insects in the forest singing could be heard.

He pressed hard on Chang Le's wounds, but there were still streams of blood flowing from the gaps of his fingers. Chang Le was lying on the ground looking paler.

"Brother… I want to go home…"

"Brother will take you home! Chang Le... Chang Le, don't close your eyes, look at me, don't leave me please..."

"Brother, I've always wanted to tell you something. If I don't say it now... there will be no chance..."

"Chang Le, what do you want to say to me, I'm listening."

Chang Le held Chen An's hand tightly, but Chen An found that his hands were getting colder.

"Brother, I'm sorry... I love you... so much, for all this time. Don't hate me, okay?"

Chen An's tears flowed down at once. He shook his head vigorously. Silly child, how could he hate him? The only one he loved most was his little brother.

"Chen An, I love you... live your life well."

"And be happy..."

His eyes slowly closed, until his last moment, the corners of the young man's mouth still hung a faint smile, as long as he could see his brother alive and well, he would die without regret. "Chang Le! Chang Le!"

"Wake up, could you please wake up! Don't leave me alone, didn't you say you love me, Chang Le, wake up, open your eyes and look at me..."

"Chang Le... don't leave your brother, don't frighten me, ok?"

"We gonna give up the old business, let's find a place to your liking, go to the place where no one knows for us to live a happy life..."

"Can you answer me? Just give me a response..."

"Chang Le..."
