Rebirth: My Brother Can Only Be Mine

Chapter 105 Lin Qi's Journey of Learning from Lin Qing

Lin Qi had a dream at night, in which he returned to his childhood.

When I was a child, I depended on my mother for everything.

Lin Qi has never seen his father since he can remember, and has always depended on his mother. His mother is a very gentle person. She would call him gently, and even her scolding would be gentle.

My mother relied on doing embroidery to supplement the family income and lived a very hard life.

He has been well-behaved and clever since he was a child, and was very popular with the adults in the neighborhood. Sometimes, when the children got annoyed with playing, they would call him a bastard, but he pretended not to care and continued to play with them gently.

But he actually cares a lot.

From a very young age, he learned to disguise himself as a gentle person, and he kept this up for many years.

He also asked his mother who his father was and why they separated.

Every time his mother heard this, she would remain silent. If he continued to ask, her eyes would turn red and tears would form.

After a while he stopped asking.

My father is a heartless man. I don’t know whether he is dead or in hiding. He made my mother so sad. Even if he comes back, my mother and I will never forgive him.

Occasionally, his mother would talk about his grandparents. He asked his mother why he had never met them. His mother said that she had been a traitor and had brought shame to his grandfather, so she had no face to see them.

When she spoke to the end, her eyes were filled with tears again, so Lin Qi stopped asking any more questions.

His mother would just say whatever she wanted to say, and he would not ask any more questions.

Lin Qi now learns to write and read books with his mother every day. At such a young age, he already has plans for the future.

He treated other children gently when they bullied him.

He knew that he was very smart. Compared to other kids of his age who were still playing in the mud, he was already able to think about many problems, so there was no need to argue too much with these little brats.

He planned to study hard, take the imperial examination, become the top scholar, and become a high-ranking official in the future.

He couldn't learn embroidery, but when he grew up a little bit, he could supplement the family income by copying books. When he passed the imperial examination and became a high-ranking official, he could let his mother enjoy a good life.

He danced with joy and told his mother about his future plans. His mother would always look at him with a gentle smile, as if her son had become a high-ranking official.

If life had gone as he wished, he might have become a young scholar or a young top scholar in a mortal country, then career in officialdom and enjoy life with his mother.

If this is really possible, it would be a bright future.

However, accidents always catch people off guard.

One winter was so hard to bear that his home was suddenly gone and his mother was gone too. She left him a jade pendant and asked him to take it with him to find his father.

Did he have a father?

It turned out that his father was not dead, it seemed that he had hidden himself.

He thought at the time that when he found his father, he would go and see him, and he would never recognize him.

The young boy kept walking and walking in one direction.

He didn't know how long he had been walking. He almost froze to death, or starved to death on the road several times, and was almost beaten to death on the road. He was numb.

During this period of time, he experienced all the dangers of the world that he had never experienced as a child under the protection of his mother.

He thought that he might not be able to find it in this life, and hoped that he could still be his mother's child in the next life, but not choose this father.

One day, he was picked up by Sect Leader Lin in the snow.

Sect Leader Lin said that he had spiritual roots and could practice cultivation, and asked if he was willing to be his disciple.

He was reluctant at first because he had not yet fulfilled what he promised his mother. He had promised his mother that he would go find his father.

But Sect Master Lin said that he had seen his jade pendant and he recognized it as the jade pendant that one of his former disciples had carried with him. Unfortunately, that disciple had died many years ago.

So he doesn't need to look for it?

Well, let’s not look for it anymore. He is really tired.

Sect Leader Lin accepted him as his disciple and treated him very well, often giving him delicious and useful things. Sect Leader Lin also asked him to accompany the young master well.

At that time, the eldest and younger masters had just separated and lived separately. At first, the younger master often cried and made a fuss, asking for his brother.

Sect Leader Lin always looked at him and sighed, but he didn't know what Sect Leader Lin was sighing about.

The little master is crying and asking to find his brother, so just sigh at him or at his brother.

Why sigh to yourself?

My luck is about to be ruined by Sect Leader Lin.

This is what his mother told him when he was a child: one should not sigh all the time, and one should not get too close to people who sigh all the time, or else it will bring bad luck.

But Sect Leader Lin looked for him every day and sighed at him every day, so he had no way to avoid him.

So he had to try his best to make the young master like him, and like him as much as he liked the older master. That way, the young master wouldn't cry and he wouldn't be sighed at, right?

He began to imitate the young master.

He secretly observed the eldest young master, who was aloof and reserved, with a cold exterior but a warm heart.

He thought, it’s over, the best he could do is imitate a cold face, but he couldn’t imitate a warm heart, his heart was cold.

For example, although the eldest young master is hated and isolated by his fellow disciples, if his fellow disciples are in danger while on a mission, the eldest young master is always the first to rush forward.

Once he saw the eldest young master injured himself while saving someone, but after the disciple escaped, he looked at him with horror, as if the eldest young master was going to kill him.

The other fellow disciples who were not aware of the situation came over and asked the eldest young master why he wanted to scare his fellow disciples.

The eldest young master left without saying a word.

How funny.

Although he watched the whole process, he did not explain too much to his fellow disciples. After all, those people only believed what they saw.

He was just trying to comfort his fellow disciples gently...it was really annoying to comfort this group of ungrateful idiots.

He could not imitate the warmth in the young master's heart, but he also felt a secret joy in his heart. Only he understood the young master's hot soul hidden under his indifference.

Even the younger master, under his deliberate guidance, drifted further and further away from the older master.

He often laughed secretly.

He felt very happy that he was the only one who understood the young master's feelings.

He began to imitate the young master's dress and manners to make himself look hot.

He is gentle and steady. He often teaches and helps his fellow disciples. Everyone who sees him would say that he is a good person.

He replaced the eldest young master's position among his fellow disciples.

He also replaced the eldest young master's position beside the younger young master.

The eldest young master appeared to be increasingly cold and indifferent, and fewer and fewer people came into contact with him.

The young master who looked cold but had a warm heart was hidden by him.

After accompanying the young master for more than a year, the young master gradually became dependent on him, but he also felt that Sect Master Lin doted on the young master too much and was too controlling, often asking him about the young master's affairs.

He thought that Sect Leader Lin was also a kind father who was only worried about his youngest son, so he informed Sect Leader Lin of every detail of the young master's affairs.

But later, after the young master was injured and in a coma for half a month, he woke up again and was no longer dependent on himself.

The younger master began to rely on the older master.

He is not jealous.

He just had a hard time accepting it.

Not only does the young master not rely on himself now, he has also begun to reject himself. When I secretly try to stop him, he always says that he is a snitch.

He didn't feel bad, he was just completing some tasks assigned by his boss.

Then he should tell Sect Leader Lin less about the young master's affairs. After all, he also felt that Sect Leader Lin was in charge of too much.

But even after he did that, the young master still didn't like it, and it even seemed that the young master hated him a little.

The younger master started to rely on the older master again, and his fellow disciples also began to notice the older master.

How can that work!

He continued to observe the young master quietly.

He just wanted to know how the eldest young master suddenly gained the trust of the younger young master. He had never had that kind of trust before, not even during the year or so when he had the best relationship with the younger young master.

He also wanted to know why the eldest master was so nice to the younger master.

He wasn't jealous, he just wanted to know why.

Really.

He had been secretly observing the young master, and over the years he had already memorized his behavior and habits.

He felt that if he could succeed once in snatching the younger master away from the older master, he could succeed twice.

But they both trust each other.

What should I do? How can I rob this?

hateful!

Why did Elder Sun beat the young master? If he hadn't beaten the young master, this wouldn't have happened!

Damn it!

......

Later, the eldest and youngest masters ran away from the sect.

Why run? How can I observe the young master like this?

How can I learn the changes in the young master's growth like this?

They ran away, and Sect Leader Lin was furious at first, and searched frantically for a year.

If you don’t find it, you give up.

It's only been a year, Sect Master Lin, have you given up?

Sect Master Lin, you disappoint me so much!

Sect Leader Lin gave him more resources and paid more attention to his own cultivation. He even felt that Sect Leader Lin was a bit like feeding ducks. How could he feed them so well?

Are you feeding the pigs?

It is not advisable to force things to happen too fast. If you practice too fast and your mind can't keep up, then it will become more and more difficult as time goes by.

I am being crammed and working behind closed doors in the sect every day. Is Sect Leader Lin getting senile and confused?

He tactfully reminded Sect Leader Lin several times, but Sect Leader Lin acted as if to say, "You don't understand. I'm doing this for your own good. Don't be ungrateful."

After being reminded again, Sect Leader Lin looked at himself and sighed again.

Still sighing? What the hell are you sighing for?

I told you not to sigh at yourself, it's bad luck!

Forget it. After all, I have received so much care from Sect Master Lin over the years, so I should reluctantly show some consideration for the old man.

Not long after, he had a junior fellow apprentice, and his master named him Lin Ke.

This name really sounds like a girl's.

Junior Brother Lin Ke is different from the eldest young master, and also different from the youngest young master.

Junior Brother Lin Ke has his own code of conduct.

In short, it's laziness.

Junior Brother Lin Ke is more talented than me and his training speed is faster than mine.

The sect leader also used a cramming method to train Lin Ke.

Sect Leader Lin now has two ducks to fill.

Congratulations, this duck can finally eat less.

Junior Brother Lin Ke made rapid progress in the Qi training stage, but his practice slowed down when he reached the foundation building stage. He was lazy and sluggish every day, looking as if he could not wake up.

Moreover, Junior Brother Lin Ke didn't like being crammed. He had seen him secretly pouring out tonics several times.

After so many times, I pretended to advise him not to waste.

Junior Brother Lin Ke actually called me an idiot?

Well, it seems that Junior Brother Lin Ke was not waiting for me on purpose just to accommodate me or because he was afraid of being embarrassed by his slow progress in cultivation.

He is really lazy.

But who is the fool? Junior Brother Lin Ke is disrespectful to his elders!

The young master is still cute.

When will the eldest and young masters come back? I miss them a little.

Time flies by.

When we thought they would never come back, they did.

I have grown up and am almost an adult. There is no way for me to imitate the rich young master I was in my youth anymore.

It’s a pity that I missed the young master’s appearance for so many years.

I don’t know what Sect Leader Lin was thinking. He sent the two of them north to carry out the mission without even returning to the sect.

What task is so important?

Is Sect Leader Lin getting senile and confused?

And let Junior Brother Lin Ke and myself follow the eldest and younger masters to carry out the mission?

Is this surveillance?

This is surveillance.

......Not long after, he was lost.

Well done, young masters.

I thought that if I lost them, I could just have some fun outside for a while before going back.

Unexpectedly, I was forced by the elders to go back and continue to cram.

Junior Brother Lin Ke is becoming more and more lazy, and his cultivation progress is even slower than mine. From time to time, he looks at me with an attitude of wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Why are you looking at me? Is my gentle gentleman mask exposed?

Did he see my selfish and cold heart?

Eh? No~

Until I saw the jade pendant that Junior Brother Lin Ke took out.

How come it is exactly the same as his own jade pendant? Junior Brother Lin Ke said that this was left to him by his father.

I was shocked. Could it be that Junior Brother Lin Ke was my father's illegitimate son?

No, I have never seen my father. Am I the illegitimate son of Junior Brother Lin Ke’s father?

But Junior Brother Lin Ke said that he had never seen his father either.

Could it be that Junior Brother Lin Ke and I are both illegitimate children of that unknown father?

What is illegitimate? What is illegitimate? What is illegitimate?

Just when Junior Brother Lin Ke and I were discussing whether we should go to Sect Master Lin and ask his dead disciple whether he had other illegitimate children.

Junior Brother Lin Ke looked at me as if I were a fool and ignored me again, as if he was coldly drawing a line between us.

What do you mean?

Who are you looking down on?

I have been smart since I was a child, and everyone can see it.

In the end, I still didn’t go to confront Sect Master Lin. A doubt emerged in my mind. Could it be that Sect Master Lin was his dead disciple???

Damn it! How can I check this?

Before I could find out anything, the young master came back.

I don't know where Sect Leader Lin got the news from, but he told me and Junior Brother Lin Ke to go down the mountain to pick him up. We stayed at the foot of the mountain for several days, and sure enough, the eldest young master showed up.

The eldest young master has grown up, and it seems that he is not as cold on the outside but warm on the inside as before. Now he is not so cold on the outside, and can be described as gentle.

I secretly observed myself to see if I looked like the young master.

Will it be what I guessed?

But it doesn't seem like them. The facial features are not the same, even the facial contours are not the same. Could it be that I guessed wrong?

A false alarm!

But the breath of relief I had just breathed was suddenly held again.

What the hell?

Why did the young master enter the hall upright and come out sideways?

What happened?

Why was he beaten like this?

Is Sect Master Lin crazy?

Tiger poison cannot eat its seeds!

I waited anxiously, and finally the young master arrived.
