[The White Olive Tree]

[Episode 26]

[This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to reality is purely coincidental.]

Give it to me.

Mom.

After the treatment,

let's go stay in our hometown for a whil.e

Winter is coming.

The haze in Dicheng is too severe.

Even one who's not sick would get lung diseases.

Now that I'm back home,

I have to start working.

How can I leave?

Besides, the winter in our hometown

is cold and humid.

Even if we don't get lung disease,

we'd get rheumatism.

I knew it.

Just wasting my breath here.

Did you have a fight with Li Zan?

No.

Just because he's going to Eastern Country?

How did you know?

I asked him.

He answered me honestly.

He even told you...

Yet he didn't tell me.

Did you ask him?

I didn't want to pressure him.

That's probably why

he didn't tell you.

I don't think there's a need

to be so stubborn with Li Zan.

Don't you know him?

When you knew him,

he was a volunteer.

Switch around your perspectives:

if you have to go for an interview,

what if he doesn't let you go?

That's different.

What he does is too dangerous.

Dangerous?

You stepped on a bomb and encountered an explosion.

Aren't those dangerous?

I'm your mother.

How many times have I told you not to go?

Have you listened to me?

He's a man.

If he doesn't go

just because you don't agree,

then what's the use of having a man like him?

Men can love women,

but they can't always

listen to women.

Women are the same.

We don't depend on anyone.

Listen to your heart.

When you're in sync,

you are the best couple.

If you don't get along, break up as soon as possible.

Don't hurt each other.

I know.

Then why are you making a fuss?

Mom.

Sometimes...

I hate myself too.

Why?

Maybe you're right.

I was not strong enough

that I got sick.

I'm not talking about my eyes

but mental illness.

If I weren't sick,

maybe I wouldn't have

kicked up such a fuss with Li Zan.

Ran.

What I said was wrong.

Don't be too harsh on yourself.

Zan...

How are you now?

Do you hate me a lot?

[Shen Bei]

Hello, Shen Bei.

Hello, Song Ran.

How have you been?

Not bad.

I've been busy lately.

What about you?

How is your mother?

Has she recovered?

Mom and I are fine.

Thank you.

It's good that you've recovered.

Shen Bei,

have you seen Sasin, Ben

and the others lately?

You want to ask about Li Zan, right?

Don't be shy.

Is it hard to contact him recently?

Don't blame him.

Since Zoro died,

everyone's been like that.

Everyone has been giving their all

working day and night.

Zoro's dead?

How could that...

When did it happen?

You... You didn't know?

Li Zan didn't tell you?

Benjamin called me saying...

that the situation in Eastern Country is very bad.

Zan...

Why didn't you tell me?

Why do you always

not tell me things?

At that time,

I said something like that...

You won't forgive me anymore, will you?

Okay, you guys go ahead with the meeting.

Yes. Okay.

Send me the meeting minutes

to me as soon as you can.

I will have a look.

Okay.

All right.

Check your phone.

Mom.

I'm going to Eastern Country too.

To see Li Zan?

No.

I don't plan to tell him.

I only found out yesterday

the boy who was saved by Li Zan

in the photo "Carry"...

died.

He was killed by a landmine.

Now I understand

why Li Zan insisted on

going to Eastern Country.

This has

nothing to do with

bloodline, country,

or responsibility.

It's an instinct.

An instinct that stems from kindness.

This instinct

makes it impossible for me to stay at home

and do nothing.

Because fate

has connected me with

the land and people there.

This kind of connection

can't be cut off and ignored

just like that.

Mom...

Do you understand?

Yes.

It means

you must go.

It's useless for me to oppose.

Mom...

I only have one request.

Go there in a month.

First, you need to calm yourself down.

To prove that this is not an

impulsive decision.

Second,

give yourself a month to adjust your state.

After all, too many things happened recently.

You need to rest and adjust.

Since you're going to such a dangerous place,

you need to be in the best condition.

Mom.

Now I know

why you have

such a successful career.

Okay.

I'll listen to you.

Stop flattering me.

Even if you put it nicely,

you still left home

when I was sick.

When you were working just now

I didn't see you saying you were sick.

Right.

When you leave,

I can do whatever I want.

No one will control me anymore.

I can–

No way.

After I leave,

you need to cooperate with the treatment.

I'll call your secretary

to check up on everything.

Look at you.

Zan.

Clear!

Your method

can not only reduce casualties,

but also not implicate the residents around.

You really helped us a lot.

But that wouldn't be possible

without someone as good as you.

He's not the only good one around here.

He just doesn't give others

a chance to show others.

What? Are you not convinced?

In the next competition,

win me.

I'll let you do it.

That competition

is not fair to start with.

It's all about brute force.

What's fair then?

Write news articles?

You...

How is my hair?

Captain, the scene is all cleaned.

Good.

We've been here

about three times now, right?

Those bastards are like moles.

When you hit them, they run.

When you leave,

they will sneak their way back.

Well, it's great now,

it's completely gone.

There are many abandoned buildings

that are occupied by these riots

around Uglai.

Don't worry.

We have Zan.

Captain.

What are you looking at?

Go do your job.

Yes, captain!

Ben.

I'll take a look over there

♫Don't know where this road♫

♫Takes me to♫

♫Don't know where to restart♫

♫Feeling fool♫

♫I'm staring out the night♫

♫Bury deep my pain♫

♫To the place feeling good♫

♫Don't cost a thing♫

♫This is not what I want♫

♫I'm not running from♫

♫Where your love♫

♫Always been enough for me♫

♫Goodbye, my friend♫

♫To the laughter♫

♫And pain we had♫

♫Saying goodbye to the endless nights in the rain♫

♫So long, my friend♫

Chinese?

♫Should have known you'd♫

Yes.

♫Bring me this way♫

You're a good person/

♫Saying goodbye to the place where I call home♫

You should go now.

I don't want you to die here with me.

Try it today.

Okay.

Zan, what are you doing?

He's looking at the scenery.

Yes.

Do you want to come up and have a look?

I'm not as romantic as you.

We're going back.

Come down.

Tell me the truth.

What were you looking at?

I've been on this road before.

It looks familiar.

What for?

I saved a girl.

Song told me

she met Zan

around here.

So the girl Zan mentioned

should be Song, right?

Who else could it be?

Zan is a nostalgic person.

Just like me.

Do you have to brag

any chance you get?

Am I bragging?

If I'm not a nostalgic person,

I wouldn't be somewhere this...

Fine.

If I'm not a nostalgic person,

I wouldn't be somewhere

this beautiful and charming.

All right, let's be serious.

What happened between Zan and Song?

Since the first day Zan came back,

you stopped me from mentioning Song

in front of him.

You're still young. You don't understand.

Pack up. Let's go back.

This old man...

I'll get off here.

I'm going to visit a friend.

I'll go with you.

Sasin.

You drive.

Why would you go?

To get my eyes checked.

Cut the crap and drive.

Your eyes

recovered two months ago.

Unless you have a third eye?

Are you a doctor?

What do you know?

It's because there's a doctor there

who knows everything

that your eyes won't recover.

It seems Sasin

has a problem

with you chasing girls?

He's young. He doesn't understand.

Besides,

I really like Dr. Pei.

I'm serious about this.

Sasin treats you

is like a brother.

He wants to protect you

and doesn't want to share you with others.

I think he really treats you as his family.

He relies on you.

Really?

I don't understand.

When I was in the orphanage,

those so-called siblings

didn't have such feelings.

No wonder he always goes against me

and likes to control me.

Am I the captain

or is he the captain?

I’m not used to it.

It's rare.

It's good

to have another family.

It's too troublesome.

Give the medicine for Bed 3.

Dr. Pei.

Why are you in the hospital?

Did anyone get hurt?

Benjamin, you're injured again?

Can't you hope me well?

Why do you always want me to get hurt?

I...

What are you here for then?

I'm busy now.

I'm here to see a patient.

Yes.

Zan asked me to come with him to see a patient.

Which patient?

Which department?

A wounded soldier from Eastern Country

who's warded on the third floor.

Oh. I know.

The nurse said

there's a very handsome volunteer

who visits him very often.

So it's you.

I'll go ahead first then.

I'll leave you to it, Dr. Pei.

Go ahead.

Goodbye, Dr. Pei.

Benjamin?

You're going to?

Are you really here to see the patient with Instructor Li?

Yes.

Who do you think I'm here to see?

Zan!

Are you really going with me?

That's not suitable for me.

I'll see you off here.

A woman as independent

and confident like Dr. Pei

wouldn't like men to be around her every day.

It's no fun, no difficulty.

You need to give her a sense of defeat sometimes.

So you came here

to give her a sense of defeat?

Of course not.

I'm going to the bar next to the hospital

and wait for her to get off work.

After work, Dr. Pei would always

go relax at the bar.

We'll "meet by chance" tonight.

It's great to see you, Instructor Li.

How's his condition?

His leg injury is recovering quite well.

With a bit more time in the hospital,

he will be fine.

Still the same:

not talking to anyone,

mostly quiet.

But he experienced nightmares every day.

And sometimes, sudden outbursts.

And just moments ago he...

I'll check on him.

Sure.

It's me.

What is that?

I have a gift for you.

♫When the moonlight♫

♫Glows on you♫

♫A soft glowing ring♫

I could only find this here.

♫You're dancing in the grace♫

But I heard it.

The sound quality is not bad.

♫Moonlight, touch your face♫

This song...

♫Weave their dreams away♫

♫Let the stars fall in space♫

is very nice.

Whenever I have nightmares

or can't sleep,

♫As you're moving close to me♫

I'll listen to it.

♫My heart will never believe♫

It's useful.

You can try

♫Cause you're so beautiful♫

♫This love will never change♫

♫Halo on your side♫

♫You are so beautiful♫

♫Like angel from the stars♫

♫Over in the sky, tonight♫

I know it's hard.

But you have to hang in there.

You'll get better.

♫When the moonlight♫

Don't give up

♫Glows on you♫

♫Each step is singing in the light♫

If we give up ourselves,

♫The song of snowing the white♫

who else can help us?

♫Moonlight♫

♫Touch your face♫

♫All the shine of a thousand spotlights♫

♫All the feelings♫

♫I can't deny♫

♫As you're moving close to me♫

♫My heart will never believe♫

♫Cause you're so beautiful♫

♫This love will never change♫

♫Halo on your side♫

♫You are so beautiful♫

♫Like angel from the stars♫

♫Over in the sky, tonight♫

Zan.

You're back.

Do you have time now?

Help me with the bomb disposal practice.

Sure.

This question...

Sasin.

So you're here.

When will the captain be back?

How would I know?

He won't check in with me.

But... But I have something to tell him.

What's going on?

You come out here.

Wait for me.

We have a new bomb disposal expert

looking to report to the captain.

He's waiting outside his tent.

Why do we need a new one?

We have Zan.

Captain said Instructor Li recommended him.

Instructor Li?

Let him stay for now.

I'll find the captain later.

Okay.

Zan.

Why?

Haven't you always been

instructing and training our Special Forces members?

We have already built rapport.

Accidents won't happen.

The bomb disposer from before

was not familiar with the situation

and ran in the opposite direction,

which was why he was shot

by those bastards.

So I don't want another newbie

to die for nothing.

Why did you recommend Ben

to recruit new employees?

I only got a level three certificate this time.

I'm only qualified to demine,

not bomb disposal.

I was held up by the final bomb disposal exam.

I had something to do.

Shall we continue?

For this line...

They need help!

Eric, go help him.

Be careful.

Okay.

You've gone too far.

You're even watching me at the door.

Sasin?

What's wrong?

Why are you in a trance?

Ben.

Tell me honestly.

Did something happen to Zan?

Why did you say something so strange?

The new bomb disposer is here today.

Zan said he recommended him to you.

Why didn't you tell me?

Why should I?

I'm the captain.

Don't play dumb.

You think there's something wrong,

that's why you kept it from me.

I just recalled,

and Zan is indeed different

this time.

When someone made a mistake demining,

he wasn't the first one to go there–

in fact, he never went.

This is not like him.

Not at all.

Also.

Don't you think

he rarely smiles now too?

I thought it was because of Song.

But it's definitely not that simple.

What do you know?

Tell me.

I know nothing

just like you.

It's true.

But I do think

that Zan is

different from before too.

But after the explosion of 9/26,

no one has been the same as before.

Zan has a mind of his own

and is stubborn.

Let him handle it himself.

If he needs us,

he will say it.

Just like what happened with Song.

He took the initiative to talk about it, right?

You're so young.

Why do you act like an old man.

You're such a busybody.

Go back to sleep.

Zan!

♫Heartache♫

♫Like a knife in my chest♫

I can't handle it.

♫Silent tears♫

I can't hold it out alone.

♫Falling down from my eyes♫

Do you know

what you're doing?

If you have to go,

♫Lost in the waves♫

don't delay it

You're not one to go back on your words.

♫Can't find my way back♫

I won't be the person

holding you back either.

♫Like two lonely islands♫

Do me a favor.

Don't contact me anymore.

♫Drifting far apart♫

♫Feeling like a castaway♫

♫Stranded here alone♫

♫No place feels like home♫

♫Feeling like far from home♫

♫You don't belong to me♫

♫I know, not anymore♫

♫In this darkness♫

♫Search for a light♫

♫Hoping some day♫

♫I'll find my way back to life♫

♫Find my way back to life♫

Jiang Lin.

You trust that I will recover, right?

I have to recover.
