Mother's Funeral

This young man called Lin Yidong was also a person with an outstanding IQ. However, his fate was similar to Chief Engineer Lin's. They were both people who were not loved by their grandmothers and uncles. Even his birth was seen as a disgrace to the family.

Moreover, the moment he transmigrated, it was a funeral, or more accurately, the funeral of his mother in this life. Could it be that this kid was too sad and fainted, so his soul could transmigrate into his body? Otherwise, it simply couldn't be explained. Chief Engineer Lin felt that his previous life was a joke. Otherwise, how could he not know anything?

To put it bluntly, it seemed more appropriate to describe it as a marionette. He had lived with a blacksmith since he was young, so he had developed a set of skills. After graduating from high school, he went to the most famous university in the world to study. His wisdom had not been wasted at all. It was definitely the ideal goal for most researchers to come to Bell Laboratory after graduating from their Ph.D.

However, he felt more like a robot, not giving him any chance to think. They were all working and living according to the schedule. Even after they graduated from their Ph.D., their parents did not appear. Did they not care whether he had a girlfriend or not and whether he was doing well?

Although Chief Engineer Lin wasn't a dragon among men, he was definitely the kind that wouldn't embarrass himself. As the youngest PhD holder at Caltech, this alone was enough to explain the problem. He was also the most respected existence in Bell Laboratory. It might not be able to change the world, but it could at least promote the progress of materials science.

But even so, his parents still chose to turn a blind eye to it. Sometimes, Lin Yidong even wondered if his biological parents were the ones who had been supporting him. However, his parents couldn't explain it. After all, before he went to the United States, he had only done well in his studies and hadn't fully displayed his talent. If they were not biological parents, who would be willing to spend such a huge price to undergo targeted training?

However, it was useless to think so much now. God had asked him to go back 30 years ago, which was the day he was born in his previous life. He probably wanted to make up for his regrets. There was more to life than work.

Lin Yidong didn't know what to say to attend his mother's funeral as soon as he transmigrated. Could it be that he was worried about being discovered, or that he wanted to give him more room for development?

Since he had already knelt here, he had to finish what he had to do. No matter what, she was the mother of the owner of this body, so she had to show her due respect.

Seeing that Lin Yidong had finally woken up, a 60-year-old elder finally revealed a gratified smile.

"Young Master, you're finally awake." The old man said to Lin Yidong. Young miss just left, if something happens to you again, how am I going to explain to the dead master?"

Lin Yidong felt that the other party was calling him Young Master, but at the same time, it was very familiar. To be addressed as Young Master and his mother was even a Young Miss, could it be that his identity in this life was extraordinary? If it was just an ordinary family, it would be impossible for them to call him that.

Sealed memories began to appear in his mind, and he instantly knew who this person was.

Lu Zhonglin had lived with his grandfather since he was young, so he was very loyal to the Lin family and definitely lived up to his name.

At the same time, he also knew the current environment. February 27th, 2002, Xiangjiang, China. Today was not only the day of his mother's funeral, but also his 18th birthday.

Lin Yidong's grandfather was definitely famous in Xiangjiang City, Casino City, and the underworld. His grandfather was a big shot in the club, and although he wasn't the leader, his strength was definitely not to be underestimated. However, it had been ten years since he passed away, and the young man did not remember much now.

However, her grandfather's two younger brothers were still in the underworld, and their seniority and positions were very high. However, eighteen years ago, her mother gave birth to the child before she got married. In the eyes of the Lin family, this was definitely a huge humiliation. As a result, she was not recognized by the family. Her grandfather, who cared about his reputation, forcefully chased her mother out of the family.

She had no choice but to return to the child's father's side to live. He really couldn't take it anymore after enduring it for eight years.

To be precise, it was a feeling that a son living by his father's side was not welcomed at all and would even become a sacrifice at a critical moment. Therefore, she had no choice but to bring her son back to Xiangjiang City.

After eight years, coupled with the root cause of his illness when he was young, his grandfather's health was not as good as before. When he was old, his longing surged into his heart, so he accepted his daughter and grandson. No matter what, he was his own flesh and blood, and his own grandson, so he was closer to him than his other nephews.

However, Lin Yidong and his mother came back at the wrong time. It was the most intense moment of the power struggle. Although his grandfather, Lin Jing, was a gang boss, he had been rarely involved in gang affairs in recent years due to his health.

However, because of the Lin family's influence in the gang, they had to be guaranteed. Therefore, his second brother, Lin Sheng, was in charge of the gang's affairs in Xiangjiang, while his third brother, Lin Jian, had been the big brother in the casino. It could be said that the Lin family had a huge influence in Xiangjiang and the casino.

Originally, this arrangement was quite good. Even the Xiang family, the leader of the gang, had already tacitly agreed. But now that Xue Lin had brought her son back, some people felt that something was not right. Lin Jing had no son, only a daughter. Now that his daughter had brought the child back, it meant that Lin Jing's position should be inherited by Lin Yidong in the future.

No matter what, he was still the old man's biological grandson, and many people in the gang thought so.

Furthermore, Xue Lin had been in charge of finance before, so her ability was recognized. At the same time, she was proficient in legal knowledge. If the club members had problems, she could deal with them calmly.

Clubs nowadays no longer needed to fight and kill. They were all doing business. If Xue Lin was to take responsibility, most people would agree. Cutting off a person's path to wealth is like killing one's parents. Although they were relatives, fortresses were often easily breached from the inside. When everyone agreed that Xue Lin would inherit his father's position, the one who was the most angry was his second uncle, and he would never agree.

In the end, there was no other way. Plus, Xue Lin had never thought of participating in the management of the club, so the matter was left unsettled. However, they also made an agreement that when their son, Lin Yidong, grew up, he would join the gang and inherit his grandfather's position.

It didn't seem like much at the time, but her son's intelligence was beyond her expectations. He scored full marks in every exam and had never missed a question. After graduating from high school, he even received an admission letter from the California Institute of Technology.

His son was so outstanding that he definitely could not let him mix in the martial arts world. Even the person in charge, the Xiang family, did not expect this. Lin Jing was a big and rough man who couldn't read a word. How could his daughter and grandson be so outstanding? Lin Yidong ranked first in Xiangjiang City. It was precisely because of his club background that it was not reported.

Today was the day he came of age, and he had also received the admission notice from a famous school, so it was supposed to be the happiest day. However, no one was happy about their mother's sudden death.

Seeing Chen Zhonglin's concerned eyes, Lin Yidong felt that he could not fake it, because he could see Old Man Tie's figure from his previous life in this old man. Unless one's acting skills were exceptionally superb, one's expression and gaze would not be able to do so.

It was a good thing that someone cared about him. After all, it had been a long time since Lin Yidong had felt the care of a family member. In his previous life, ever since he came to the United States, he had not gone back for ten years. He had not even been given the chance to go back. At most, he could contact Old Metal Head by phone, but gradually, he would call him once a week, then once a month, and finally only during festivals. Moreover, when the research mission was heavy, he couldn't remember how long it had been since they last contacted each other.

"Uncle Zhong, I'm fine. I just felt a little tired."

Chen Zhonglin had followed Lin Jing into society since he was young. Logically speaking, he was of the same generation as the old man. But at home, everyone called him Uncle Zhong. His mother Xue Lin called him that, and so did his son Yidong Lin. At first, she was still not used to it. After all, it felt strange for both mother and son to address the same person like this. However, he got used to it over time. Moreover, the word 'Uncle Zhong' was not only a form of seniority, but also a form of respect.

Because of this relationship, Chen Zhonglin took care of Lin Yidong and his mother after they returned to Xiangjiang City. Although he was a servant, Lin Jing had never treated him as a servant. He had even said more than once that he was a member of the Lin family.
