Repairer Chapter 14

Translator: Zayn_

Previously, it required eight points to repair it. Now, it only required two points. That was equivalent to a 50% discount after another 50% discount. Su Xiaofan calculated in his heart. This was a huge promotion, and he had to seize this rare opportunity.

[ Back burn, recoverable. Requires 2 repair points. Do you want to repair?]

“Repair!”

[ 2 repair points deducted. Remaining repair points: 8 ]

Su Xiaofan confirmed it in his mind, and the ten points of recovery in his mind became eight. A numbing sensation then spread from his back.

“F * ck, why is it different from repairing body functions?”

Su Xiaofan could still bear the pain, but the feeling of countless ants crawling on his back made him groan uncontrollably.

“Could it be that there's nothing good on discount?”

Su Xiaofan grabbed a pillow and stuffed it into his mouth, but the numbness and itchiness on his back continued to spread to his brain, and the soreness made him want to die.

“Xiaofan, what's wrong?” Su Weixuan's voice came from the living room.

“Dad, I'm fine. My back is a little itchy.” Su Xiaofan took the pillow towel away, his voice trembling.

“That shouldn't be the case.” Su Weixuan got off the sofa and pushed open Su Xiaofan's door.

“It's so itchy. Dad, take a look and see if your ointment has expired.”

Su Xiaofan pushed the blame away and was filled with regret. If he had known that the discounted treatment would have such side effects, he would have used the ointment to let the burn heal in a week.

“That's impossible. Xiaofan, hold on. Don't be in a hurry.” Su Weixuan turned on the light. When he saw his son's back, he was stunned.

Su Weixuan could clearly feel the muscles and skin on Su Xiaofan's back contracting when he applied the ointment, but now he saw the red muscles on Su Xiaofan's back squirming. As they squirmed, the skin on his back began to scab.

“Dad, it doesn't itch anymore. Is there a scar on the back?”

In just a few moments, the burn on Su Xiaofan's back had basically formed a scar, and Su Xiaofan, who had been screaming about the itch, had stopped.

Su Xiaofan touched his back and looked at his father in shock. He couldn't tell his father about the repair points, so he had to control his expression properly. His father had to take the blame for this.

“It's… It's a scar.”

Su Weixuan stuttered when he saw the changes on his son's back.

“That shouldn't be the case. How did the medicinal effects suddenly increase by so much?” Su Weixuan muttered to himself.

“This is a good thing. Don't scratch with your hands.” Su Weixuan held back the urge to tear open his son's scars and left the room after giving Su Xiaofan some instructions. After a while, Su Xiaofan heard the door open and close.

“I should be able to fool them, right?” Su Xiaofan didn't think too much about it. The tingling on his back had tormented him, and he fell into a deep sleep after a while.

“I… Am I shedding?”

The next morning, Su Xiaofan found himself turned over, and there was no longer any burning pain on his back. After getting out of bed, he found a lot of hard objects with blood on them on the sheets, which should be the scars on his back.

Su Xiaofan took his phone and placed it behind his back, taking a picture of himself. The picture showed that his back was a little red, as if he had been scalded by hot water, but his body didn't feel any abnormalities. It could be said that he was completely fine.

“Repair points… It's really good.”

Su Xiaofan was happy, but also worried. The repair points were powerful, but he only had eight points left. He didn't know how to increase the repair points. It was like guarding a treasure mountain but not getting the treasure. It was worrying.

“How about… Should I try touching the electric switch later?” Su Xiaofan had the same idea he had at the hospital, but he didn't have the chance today. His father was taking him and his sister to buy a house.

Naturally, he couldn't hide his recovery from his father. Su Xiaofan went out and praised Su Weixuan's ointment, saying that it was a hundred times better than the Black Jade Detachment ointment in the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.

The truth was that his son had indeed used some ointment to recover yesterday. Su Weixuan was also very puzzled because the ointment was mainly used to treat external injuries and had never been tested on burn patients before. He was also very confused about whether it had such efficacy.

Su Weixuan had probably come back to buy a house this time, so he had done his homework. After breakfast, he took Su Xiaofan and his sister out to take a taxi to imperial capital.

The imperial capital was basically the most high-end community in Luochuan. The price of the houses was more than 100,000 Yuan. In the past, when Su Xiaofan passed by, he could only look at it enviously. He had never even entered the luxuriously decorated sales office.

Su Weixuan's requirements for buying a house were very simple. One was that the area must be large enough, and the other was that it needed to be well-decorated.

There was a reason why high-end residential areas were high-end, and the sales lady soon recommended a house to Su Weixuan.

It was a 270-square-meter flat on the eighth floor. It was exquisitely decorated and had a complete set of home appliances. All of them were from big brands, but the furniture had to be purchased by the buyer. This was because many powerful buyers did not like the furniture matched by developers.

Su Weixuan showed Su Xiaofan and his sister his strength this time. The house was worth more than 3.5 million Yuan, and it was a total of more than 3.6 million Yuan, including deed tax, maintenance funds, and other miscellaneous funds. He paid in full with his card and left Su Xiaofan's name and ID card. The real estate certificate would be ready in 15 days.

From signing the house-buying contract to coming out of the sales office, Su Xiaofan felt like he had drunk too much. He was dizzy. A month ago, he was so poor that he almost went to swindle people, but a month later, he had become a property owner.

“You're familiar with Luochuan's area. You can go and buy the furniture.” When they returned to Su Xiaofan's rental, Su Weixuan handed him a card. “Save the million I gave you before for an emergency. There's two hundred thousand in this card. Spend it as you see fit.”

“Dad, tell me the truth.”

Su Xiaofan grabbed Su Weixuan and said, “Do you have a net worth of hundreds of millions overseas and have been hiding it from me and Xiaoxiao? Am I the legendary rich second generation? Also, don't tell me you found me a stepmother?”

It wasn't as if Su Xiaofan hadn't seen money in the past few years. There were also transactions of hundreds of thousands in and out of shops, but it was still a shock to Su Xiaofan that it had happened to him.

“That's right. They say that men turn bad when they have money. Dad, tell me honestly. Did you find me a stepmother?” Su Xiaoxiao followed behind her brother and glared at Su Weixuan with threatening eyes.

“What are you two talking about? Is dad that kind of person?” Su Weixuan looked at his son and daughter in a bad mood.

“Then where did you get the money from?” Su Xiaofan's eyes suddenly widened. “Dad, did you find a rich woman overseas?”

“Get lost.” Su Weixuan raised his hand and smacked his son on the back of his head. “Your father's monthly salary is between 15,000 to 20,000 dollars. He's been earning it for almost ten years and he doesn't even spend money on the ship. Do you think I don't have money?”

“Is being a captain that profitable? Dad, why don't I stop setting up my stall and go on a boat with you? My English is very good, so it's definitely not a problem for me to get a second officer position.”

Su Xiaofan believed Su Weixuan's words. He had checked the salary of an ocean cruise captain before. The highest salary was nearly two hundred thousand dollars a year, which was more than a million Yuan. It was normal for his father to have a net worth of ten million Yuan.

However, the salary of an ocean captain was also divided into different levels. Su Xiaofan had thought that his father would only earn four or five hundred thousand a year when he saw his stingy look. He didn't expect his father to be paid the top salary.

“You want to be a captain? Forget it, it's too hard to run a boat. You won't be home all year round. You should stay in Luochuan.”

Su Weixuan shook his head and rejected his son.

Su Xiaofan wasn't interested in running boats and was just making a casual remark. Seeing that his father didn't agree, he changed the topic. “It's fine if you don't want me to go. Dad, are you going back to the village this time?”

Although he and his sister had moved to the city to live, their roots were still in that village. Su Xiaofan knew that his father seemed to have some conflicts with the village and had returned home countless times over the years.

“Your grandfather's not here anymore. Why should I go back? The village chief probably won't be happy to see me either.”

Su Weixuan laughed bitterly and looked a little lonely. He thought for a while and said, “I'll go back by myself tomorrow to visit your grandfather's grave. Don't go back since you've just recovered.”

“Dad, can't you just talk it out with Sixth Grandpa? You don't have to make it seem like you're enemies.” Su Xiaofan was confused. “Sixth Grandpa has been very good to Xiaoxiao and me after Grandpa passed away.”

Su Xiaofan had come from the bronze village. The Su family was a big family in that famous village, and the village head was from the Su family. According to seniority, he was Su Weixuan's sixth uncle, and it was he who had led the villagers on the road of making a fortune by copying bronze wares.

However, Su Weixuan seemed to have had some conflict with the village chief when he was young. When Su Xiaofan was young, he had seen the village chief's grandfather chase after his father with a belt.

It was for this reason that Su Xiaofan insisted on moving out of the village with his sister, even though the village chief had taken great care of the two after his grandfather's death.

Su Xiaofan didn't think of going back to the village to borrow money for his sister's school fees. His personality was actually very similar to Su Weixuan's. He would think of a way to solve things on his own and would never trouble others unless it was absolutely necessary, especially those who had conflicts with him.

“You don't understand this, so don't get involved.” Su Weixuan waved his hand. “I'm going back to the ship the day after tomorrow. You can send Xiaoxiao to Yanjing. She's never been far. I'm worried about her going alone.”

“Dad, why are you in such a hurry to go back?” Hearing that his father was leaving the day after tomorrow, Su Xiaofan suddenly felt a little reluctant. In the past, he could stay for ten days to half a month, but this time, he didn't even stay for a week.

“I'm paid to get rid of disasters, but I'm also paid to work.”

Su Weixuan laughed and made an inappropriate analogy. “Just stay in Luochuan and set up your stall. If you want to make it big, rent a shop. I can make one or two million a year, as long as you don't lose too much money.”

“By the way, don't forget to wear the jade pendant I gave you!”

“I know.” Su Xiaofan nodded in agreement. In fact, his transactions in the antique market were basically charged with intelligence business tax, so it was difficult for him to lose money.

As for the jade pendant, Su Xiaofan was already wearing it around his neck. He had been wearing a gold chain around his neck for several years. If he didn't wear something, it would seem like something was missing.

When Su Weixuan returned to the village, Su Xiaofan did not stay idle. He took his sister to several furniture stores and bought all the beds, sofas, and dining tables. He did not need to buy any cabinets or wardrobes because there was a cloakroom in the master bedroom of the house, and the other rooms had finished wardrobes.

After decorating the new house, Su Xiaofan was not in a hurry to move. Zheng Dagang told him on the phone that there would be an auspicious day soon and said that it would be best to move in three days.

After Su Weixuan left, Su Xiaofan and his sister packed up some old things they had brought back from their hometown. There were not many things, most of which were photos and albums, and they only needed a big box to pack them up.

Although they were moving, they didn't return to their previous house. They didn't bring any pots, pans, ladles, and blankets. Zheng Dagang drove the Su siblings to the new house, put a fish in the iron pot, and the moving ceremony was completed.
