Chapter 1: An utterly terrible rebirth (2/2)

'Uncle Chen, the Doctor ordered that you stay in bed. You should be resting.’

The seemingly slightly bookish youth helped Chen Zhang An slowly back to his ward.

After settling back in his hospital bed, Chen Zhang An glanced around his somewhat shabby room. There was neither television nor a fridge. With 3 people crammed into the small room, he almost forgot how an ordinary hospital ward looked like.

The pungent smell from the IV fluid caused disgust to curl up in Chen Zhang An. He cast a look to his side towards the youth pouring him a glass of water and peeling an apple.

Sensing the gaze thrown at himself, the youth swiftly passed a peeled and sliced apple over while consoling Zhang An. 'Uncle, you can rebuild your house and earn back the money that you have lost. You are only in your thirties, you still have plenty of opportunities in the future. After all, the American Colonel Sanders was only able to succeed with KFC when he was already 66 years old. Our fellow Chinese man, Shi Yu Zhu* was able to pick himself up and soar after going bankrupt. Uncle, you can definitely stage a comeback in the future.’

As he listened to the youth’s rambling, Chen Zhang An slowly shut his eyes. He needed to get his thoughts in order.

His current identity is a bankrupt man whose business had failed. He couldn’t take the blow and hence attempted suicide. They share the same surname and even similar given names, with the exception of the word 'Zhang’ in the middle.

Chen An, 32 years old, is indeed young.

Eliminating the horrifying obese, nearsighted and bucktooth appearance, 32 is indeed the prime age of a man. Besides, when he offed himself, as Chen Zhang An, he was already in his forties.

Chen Zhang An comforted himself silently. Considering everything, he could reluctantly consider himself to have received the longer end of the stick.

'What is your name?’, Chen An asked. Though his looks are somewhat rough, he had a masculine voice that was pleasing to the ear.

The youth nearly choked on the apple he was eating. Starring with widened eyes at the man lying on the bed, he anxiously yelled, 'Uncle, I’m Chen Yang! Don’t you remember?’
