Rebirth: I Am Super Rich in Apocalypse-Chapter 489: The Unspoken Regret

"Saying goodbye to my former self, I don’t want to leave any regrets.

From now on, I am reborn."

As he spoke, he looked tenderly at He Lan.

The other party’s eyes also reddened, not expecting that he took her so seriously.

"Okay, brother, once you’ve spoken to her, stop thinking about her.

You’re all mine from now on."

"Okay!"

Jiang Yuan smiled tenderly and even patted her head.

He didn’t avoid her as he took out the walkie-talkie.

"Jhiang Yuan, are you there, Jhiang Yuan, this is Jiang Yuan."

In the room, Song Yi and Jhiang Yuan hadn’t recovered yet.

Hearing his voice, they too were excited and quickly grabbed the walkie-talkie.

"I’m here, I’m here, Jiang Yuan, how is it on your side?

Are you and He Lan doing okay?"

She was very excited, a string of questions all expressing concern.

"Yuanyuan, I’m fine, He Lan is fine too, don’t worry."

Saying this, he glanced at the person next to him.

"How about you guys, are there many insects, you must lock all doors and windows!"

"Okay, you rest assured, Yuanyuan, today there are some things I want to say to you."

"Speak, I’m listening."

Everyone knew the situation outside was more dangerous than safe.

Jiang Yuan’s words were almost like a last testament.

"Yuanyuan, I know you really care about me.

I wish you well too, it’s just that this predicament is too difficult, and I can’t solve it.

You and Song Yi must hide well.

Do you still have the alcohol I gave you?"

Hearing this tone, Jhiang Yuan couldn’t help but shed tears.

This was indeed like settling final affairs, it seemed he also felt that things couldn’t get better.

"Yes, yes, there’s a lot."

"That’s good, keep it well, it’s high-concentration alcohol.

It might not save you, but in a critical moment, it can deal with one or two insects."

"Jiang Yuan, don’t be like this, we can still survive."

"Yuanyuan, don’t be naive.

Song Yi is a good man, and I kept thinking of seeing you in a bridal dress.

Now, there’s no chance.

You must take care well, no matter how long you can live, don’t go outside.

The insects outside are too many, going out means certain death.

Also, don’t engage in strenuous activities, conserve your energy."

He went on and on, saying a lot.

He probably thought they were still in the opposite building, so he was giving these instructions.

Without food or water, they probably wouldn’t last long.

"Yuanyuan, if there is a chance, in the next life, I still want to be your desk mate."

"Jiang Yuan, Jiang Yuan..."

Listening to her voice, Jiang Yuan turned off the walkie-talkie.

"Why, why does it have to be like this?"

Song Yi came over and held her.

In such a short time, losing several close friends, nobody could accept that.

Her space, from where she entered, she could only exit from there, she felt helpless and didn’t know what she could do.

On the other side, after putting down the walkie-talkie, Jiang Yuan also looked utterly dejected.

"Brother, why didn’t you tell her?"

Logically speaking, if there really was no chance of survival.

He didn’t take this opportunity to confess, then there would be no chance later.

An entire youth, or rather, the many years before this, would just end in regret."

"What’s the use of saying those things now, just adding unnecessary burden to her!"

He Lan could hardly bear to watch anymore; how could this man be so captivating, damn his abstinent charm!

"Senior brother, don’t worry.

Sister Jhiang Yuan has Song Yi by her side, and he truly loves her, even willing to sacrifice his life for her.

Moreover, Song Yi is very capable.

Their situation is much better than ours, so don’t worry too much."

She said this not on purpose, but Jiang Yuan’s heart grew even more agonized.

"You still have me, we can definitely get through this, and even if we can’t, it doesn’t matter.

As long as I’m with you, you won’t be alone even on the road to the underworld."

She spoke with utmost sincerity, as if life and death meant nothing in front of love.

Seeing Jiang Yuan zoning out, she tiptoed and kissed him directly.

This time, his eyes were filled with shock.

"Lanlan, you can’t—"

"Why can’t I? Didn’t you say you need to learn to accept me?

Senior brother, you’re not keeping your word."

He Lan pouted, unable to deny that she was very good at acting spoiled.

"But you still shouldn’t do this—"

Jiang Yuan was actually a very traditional man; this pace was too fast for him to accept.

"Senior brother, we don’t have time, and you don’t want to live with regrets, right!"

Saying so, she kissed him again, tentatively.

This time, Jiang Yuan didn’t push her away, and even began to clumsily respond...

At the base, things were also chaotic.

Nobody had expected the situation to be this bad.

The exterior fortifications were being built at the fastest speed possible, but they were utterly ineffective.

And since the final step hadn’t been implemented, everything was in vain.

Plus, there were too many insects, far more than previously anticipated.

They had contacted other bases, and the situation was similar everywhere.

They had made preparations in advance here; other places had not even considered this issue.

The sudden rain caught them unprepared, and many lives were lost.

Those who survived were in a sorry state.

Camp Commander Xie was also continuously reprimanded; as the highest official for the base, he was under immense pressure.

The situation wasn’t getting any better!

The most infuriating part was that after such long efforts, it all ended in vain.

The big trench that was supposed to isolate the insects was now useless; it was flooded with rainwater and now swarming with insects.

"Go ask the two people from Half Moon Lake if they have a way to break the spell."

"Yes~"

Having received the order, Camp Commander Xie hurried out.

Oh, the atmosphere was oppressively tense.

Now, both Song Yi and Jiang Yuan were in the residential area, which was already quite restricted.

Moreover, he was supposed to find a way to rescue the two, but with so many insects, it was impossible to even leave.

The base itself was underground, and the above-ground area was extremely limited.

He could guarantee that once the door was opened, the insects would swarm in madly.

Then they would all be finished, without a single survivor.

Sighing heavily, he arrived at Second Master Teng’s place, where he and Dong Dali were equally lost for words.

"I’ve seen the destructive power of those insects.

Now that there are so many, and we’re trapped here, is there really no way out?

Second Master, I really don’t want to die!"

At that, Second Master Teng sighed deeply.

"Dali, I don’t want to die either, but there’s no way out!

Think about it, with so many insects, even if you escape, you won’t survive."

"Right, Second Master, isn’t there the Insect Attraction Incense?

We can apply what’s left of it on our hands.

As long as we have the scent, the insects won’t attack us."
