Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 1136: Chapter 1046: Raising My Little Brother in the Future 23

No matter how he thought about it, Qu Chang’an believed that Shuangshuang was able to show up so promptly because she had already been reborn. She knew that her brother would be sold out by their uncle, which is why she rushed back to rescue him.

This also explains why she only had cold hatred towards Uncle and Aunt without any other emotions.

Convinced that his sister was reborn, Qu Chang’an was initially impulsively eager to confess to his sister that he had also been reborn, and to reunite with her.

But as soon as this impulse appeared, Qu Chang’an dismissed it, recalling how disgraceful he had been in his past life, fully aware of the wrongs he had done firsthand which Shuangshuang completely understood.

Suddenly, Qu Chang’an was overcome with fear. In this life, he was just a child, brought up bit by bit by his sister since infancy, like a clean slate.

But in his past life, he had turned completely dark, with no possibility of redemption, which is why his sister had been tasked to eradicate him.

Qu Chang’an was afraid that if his sister knew he wasn’t truly the innocent, pure-hearted child but rather the irredeemable ”Mad Wolf” from his past life, she would come to dislike him, ceasing to love him — something more painful than death for him.

After struggling internally for a long time, Qu Chang’an ultimately decided to completely forget his past as ”Mad Wolf” and live purely as Qu Chang’an.

Though he would hide his rebirth, he vowed that he would never make mistakes in this life, remain a good child, and grow into someone who wouldn’t bring his sister shame.

Understanding everything and letting go of it all, Qu Chang’an finally relaxed, no longer troubled by gains and losses, worries, or fears.

What made Qu Chang’an even happier was that he no longer had to feign indifference towards Shuangshuang, because this sister was his, a real sister who would never abandon him and whom no one could take away.

After spending two exhausting days moving houses and cleaning up until her back ached, Shuangshuang discovered that her usually aloof and distant brother, who disliked close contact, had suddenly become so clingy.

Previously, when there was nothing to do, he would resolutely avoid approaching her. Even if she approached him, he would be cold and indifferent, but now, all of a sudden, he loved sticking to her side.

Like now, in the kitchen, while cooking, Shuangshuang saw Qu Chang’an running over to hug her leg, sticking by her side obediently and watching her cook, which amused her a little.

She reached out to ruffle Qu Chang’an’s soft, fluffy hair, ”Chang’an, why are you so clingy to sister these days? Do you want some toy or something to eat?”

”You can just tell me what you want. Sister still has quite a few credit points. Even if what you want is expensive, sister will definitely agree to it.”

Shuangshuang thought that Chang’an’s sudden change in nature, becoming so clingy, was because he wanted something, so she promised to buy whatever Chang’an wanted.

Shuangshuang was willing to spend money on her brother, figuring that what children wanted wouldn’t be excessively expensive, and she could definitely afford it.

Qu Chang’an shook his little head, wrapped his arms around Shuangshuang’s leg, and rubbed his face against it, ”I don’t want anything.” He just wanted to stay close to his sister.

Shuangshuang’s heart melted at her cute and clingy little brother’s behavior. Although she didn’t know why her usually icy brother had become so clingy, Shuangshuang didn’t dislike this change at all.

In the living room, Fan Meijie sat sloppily on the carpet munching on an apple, casually shaking her leg at the syrupy sweet siblings in the kitchen.

She looked unbearable, ”I say, can you two stop being so sticky? It’s like you’re doing it on purpose to pick on a loner like me. Believe I’ll go back right now and ask my mom to give me a brother to play with?”

Without turning her head, Shuangshuang fed a piece of freshly roasted meat to Qu Chang’an while retorting.

”I don’t believe it. If you dare ask Aunt to have a brother for you to play with, Aunt could send you flying.”

Moreover, every time Fan Meijie saw her mom, she acted like a cat avoiding a mouse, so Shuangshuang didn’t believe she had the guts to ask her mom for a brother at all.

Fan Meijie was at a loss for words, pointing dramatically at Shuangshuang but ultimately unable to think of a rebuttal.

After all, she didn’t actually dare to provoke her mom. With her mom’s fierce temper, saying such a thing might very well get her smacked back into a tadpole and reabsorbed for another go around.

Fan Meijie, left speechless by Shuangshuang, flopped onto the carpet with an expression of resignation, shouting twice in frustration, ”Having a friend like you is just bad luck for me.”

Shuangshuang chuckled, picking a piece of fish and removing its bones before placing it into Chang’an’s mouth, casually changing the topic.

”Let’s not be too relaxed now. Summer break is coming up. We need to quickly get the martial artist certificate, so we can qualify to leave the safe zone.

If we act fast enough, we can apply to go hunting outside the safe zone just in time for the summer break.

The mutant beasts we’ve beaten inside the safe zone are ultimately farmed and tamer, with limited ferocity compared to the diverse, wild, and ferocious mutant beasts outside the safe zone.

Recently, I’ve noticed you’ve hit a bottleneck. These farmed mutant beasts can’t help you break through.

You need to face those strong, survival-of-the-fittest mutant beasts that truly thrive in the wild to find a way to break through your bottleneck.”

Fan Meijie scratched her head in her usual un-girlish manner. She knew perfectly well she had hit a bottleneck in her cultivation as a martial artist and had long planned to venture out of the safe zone.

”I know. Even though I’ve hit a bottleneck in my cultivation, passing the martial artist assessment isn’t hard. We just need to find some time to go.”

As she spoke, Fan Meijie looked enviously at Shuangshuang, busy cooking and feeding her brother in the kitchen, and couldn’t help but sigh.

”I must say, Shuangshuang, you’re impressive. I’ve never seen you hit a bottleneck in your cultivation. You always flow smoothly, and your talent is simply unmatched.

I absolutely detest bottlenecks; being stuck without knowing how long it will last is incredibly annoying.”

”Don’t worry. Once we’re out of the safe zone, I’ll help you develop a battle plan. You should be able to get through this bottleneck soon.”

”I hope so. Well, I’m not worried anyway. Worrying doesn’t solve anything.” Fan Meijie’s mindset was incredibly strong, completely untroubled, and never dwelt on things.

Shuangshuang liked her mindset because she was the same way, which is why they became good friends.

Since they decided to take the martial artist assessment, there was no time to delay. Entrusting the increasingly clingy Qu Chang’an to Aunt Wu’s care, the two headed straight for the martial artist assessment center.
