Sold for 300, I Fight Back with Superpowers

Su Qing saw the pained expression on Gu Xinsheng’s face. Whether he truly felt for her or it was because of Li Wan, Su Qing’s impression of the man before her improved somewhat.

"It’s in the past," Su Qing replied faintly. ’The one who endured the pain was the original owner, not her.’

Hearing Su Qing’s words, Gu Xinsheng sighed inwardly again at the girl’s bravery and composure. He nodded and said, "Alright, what’s past is past. Let’s look forward. If you run into any trouble in the future, just come to Uncle Gu."

Su Qing smiled faintly. "Okay, thank you, Uncle Gu."

With that, Su Qing took out the small jar of medicinal powder and another small jar of honey. She said to Gu Xinsheng, "Uncle Gu, this is the powder I used. It needs to be mixed with honey and applied once a day."

"Okay, leave it to me. I’ll apply it for your mother every day." Seeing Su Qing take out the powder and honey, Gu Xinsheng couldn’t help but get excited. His hands trembled slightly as he took them, cradling them carefully as if they were a precious treasure.

Gu Xinsheng’s voice trembled with excitement. "Qingqing, I’ll mix some up. Watch and see if I’m doing it right."

Gu Xinsheng was extremely cautious with this medicinal powder that could treat the scars on Li Wan’s face. He was afraid he would mix it wrong and affect its efficacy, so he wanted Su Qing to guide him.

"Okay." Su Qing smiled and nodded. She could tell that this Gu Xinsheng truly cared about Li Wan.

Soon, Gu Xinsheng followed Su Qing’s instructions, applying the honey-and-powder mixture to Li Wan’s face. While Gu Xinsheng wasn’t looking, Su Qing sent a wisp of green mist into Li Wan’s body.

’Now that she was here, she had to help Li Wan recover.’

After applying the medicinal powder for Li Wan, Gu Xinsheng looked at Su Qing. "Qingqing, your uncle’s family are bad news. They definitely don’t have good intentions toward you. I suggest you don’t go back. You’ll be all alone and powerless against them, and I’m afraid you won’t win that fight. I can help you find a place in Jia City so you can live on your own."

"I know what I’m doing." Su Qing had no intention of leaving the Li family’s home just yet. ’The Li family harmed Li Wan this much. She had to collect some interest. As for Zhao Li’e’s burned face? That was barely a start. The suffering Li Wan had endured for years couldn’t be for nothing.’

Seeing Su Qing refuse, Gu Xinsheng started to protest, but she cut in, "Uncle Gu, you don’t need to worry about me. I can handle myself. But as for you taking my mother, the police are still looking for you. You should resolve that matter as soon as possible to avoid future trouble."

Gu Xinsheng nodded. "Alright, I know. I’ll take care of it in the next day or two. Don’t worry, your uncle and his family won’t dare cause trouble for me."

"That’s good." Hearing him say that, Su Qing understood that he had backing and stopped worrying. She glanced at the sky. "Uncle Gu, it’s getting late. I should head back now. I’ll come see my mother again tomorrow."

"Okay." Gu Xinsheng nodded. He saw Su Qing out of the woods before returning to the bamboo house.

When Su Qing got back to the Li family’s home, the family of four happened to be returning as well. Although Zhao Li’e’s face was severely burned, Li Aiguo had acted quickly. So, after a day of observation, she was discharged from the hospital. She only needed to return every three days to have her dressings changed, but scarring was inevitable.

So, when the four members of the Li family saw Su Qing, they all glared at her with fury.

Li Aiguo’s voice was cold. "Qingqing, come here. I have some questions for you."
