Sold for 300, I Fight Back with Superpowers

”What’s that got to do with me?” Now that Su Qing knew Li Wan’s whereabouts and that the Li family was secretly plotting against her, she certainly wasn’t going to be nice to them. In fact, she was already trying to figure out how to turn their entire family upside down.

”How has it got nothing to do with you?” Li Xiaojuan demanded angrily. ”How is it that the very day you show up, my mom falls and burns her face?”

Su Qing sneered. ”If we’re going down that road, then I suppose I can suspect that what happened to my mother was deliberately caused by you Li family members. How is it that my mother was perfectly fine before, but the moment she came back to Jia City with Uncle, she fell, hit her head, and was left with the mind of a child?”

Su Qing’s words were aimed at Li Xiaojuan, but she didn’t miss Li Aiguo’s reaction.

Sure enough, when Li Aiguo heard Su Qing’s words, his expression stiffened.

Su Qing sneered inwardly but didn’t expose him, just smiling at Li Aiguo. ”Uncle, perhaps you could explain it to me?”

”Explain what?” Li Aiguo’s expression was unnatural. He frowned. ”We were robbed on the way back. Your mother hitting her head was an accident. All the neighbors knew about it at the time. We took her to the hospital immediately. Even after she became... like that, our Li family never looked down on her. We always took care of her. Your aunt, especially, cared for her meticulously. How can you twist things to make it sound like we harmed your mother?”

”Is that so?” Su Qing chuckled humorlessly. ”So Aunt is just that ’kind-hearted,’ is she.”

Zhao Li’e shot Su Qing a nasty look. ”Of course we’re kind-hearted. You’re the one, you little brat, who treats your own flesh and blood like enemies. Just look at how you beat your cousins yesterday—”

As she spoke, she agitated the wound on her face and couldn’t help but hiss in pain.

Seeing Zhao Li’e cry out in pain, Su Qing was secretly thrilled. Outwardly, however, she merely raised an eyebrow. ”Oh my, Aunt, you should take it easy. With a face full of injuries, you can’t get all worked up. Be careful not to talk too much, or you’ll pull at the wound. It would be so ugly if you ended up with a face full of scars.”

”You... Why can’t a single nice word come out of your mouth?” Zhao Li’e was already terrified of her face scarring, and now Su Qing had just said it so brazenly. Zhao Li’e instantly felt as if an arrow had pierced her heart, and she gasped for breath.

”I’m just telling the truth.” The corners of Su Qing’s lips curled up, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes. ”Aunt, was I supposed to tell you to shout and talk all you want, to make sure the wound never heals so you’ll be left with a face full of scars?”

”You... you child!” So enraged she could barely speak, Zhao Li’e clutched her chest and pointed at Su Qing. ’It’s finally dawning on me,’ she thought. ’This damn girl was born to be our Li family’s enemy. The day she shows up, she beats my son and daughter. That night, my face gets burned. She’s our family’s curse!’

Seeing her mom so furious, Li Xiaojuan couldn’t stop herself from lunging toward Su Qing to hit her again, only to be held back by Li Aiguo once more.

”Dad, what are you doing?” Li Xiaojuan glared at Li Aiguo furiously. ”Listen to her! Just listen to the way she’s talking about Mom! Is that any way to speak to your elders? Does she have any respect at all? And you’re still protecting her? Who is your actual family?”

”Of course, you’re all one big happy family,” Su Qing said with a faint smile. ”Isn’t it obvious? I’ve just gotten back, and your whole family is sitting here ganging up on me for an interrogation. What, are you planning to bully me just because you see I’m all alone in Jia City with no one to count on?”
