Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 381: Chapter 253 Foster Father of Grandchild Spoiler’s Potential Chapter 381: Chapter 253 Foster Father of Grandchild Spoiler’s Potential Mr. Ban Shan furrowed his brow upon hearing this and looked at Gu Changsheng with concern, “Exactly as Hetian said, Little Sun Sun is still so young; surely he won’t be safe out there on his own. Everyone, think quickly, where is he most likely to have gone?”

Uncle Song and Dong Lei exchanged glances, their faces also filled with urgency.

“Young Master has only returned to Liuzhou for a little more than half a year and barely ever goes out. Where could he possibly have gone?” Dong Lei’s beautiful eyes welled up with tears, the potential dangers that Young Master might encounter outdoors making her even more nervous!

“Xiao Leizi, don’t panic just yet. Young Master will be fine. Let’s think quickly, where is he most likely to have gone?” Uncle Song was anxious too but still tried to calm everyone by speaking with a composed voice.

“Wife…” Dong Lei looked at her wife imploringly.

How come Young Master went missing and the whole family is frantic, yet only her wife, being the mother, stands unmoved like a mountain, with not even a trace of worry on her face?

Although Dong Lei, as a maid, thought this way, she still didn’t say it out loud.

But Mr. Ban Shan, being an elder, wasn’t so courteous. Losing Little Sun Sun made him frantic, yet his daughter sat there steady as Mount Tai, acting as if nothing had happened. How could this be acceptable?

Thus, Mr. Ban Shan, pointing at Gu Changsheng, began to speak reproachfully, “Daughter! Do you even look like a mother anymore? Not only do you not worry about Little Sun Sun being lost, but you also have the nerve to sulk. What exactly are you thinking? Is Little Sun Sun even your biological child?”

Facing such accusations from her own kind-hearted foster father, Gu Changsheng immediately raised her head.

“I really want to say he isn’t my biological child…”

God knows, how could this Little Melon Baby be so daring as to skip out like this!

Her teachings hadn’t gone that far off track, so how did her son end up so twisted?

Skipping his master and his mother, barely averting becoming utterly lawless! Why is this happening?

Her son was nearly growing up crooked as a tree, and yet she hadn’t even condemned those who spoil him rotten, so why did her foster father lash out at her?

God knows, how stifling this felt!

She was truly neglectful, wasn’t she?

Blame her for the tree growing crooked but fail to see how you’re indiscriminately over-fertilizing it?

“How dare you say that! Is there any mother in the world who cares about her son as little as you do?” Mr. Ban Shan was taken aback by Gu Changsheng’s words and immediately slapped his hand toward Gu Changsheng’s head.

Gu Changsheng suddenly became a bit dazed.

She remembered her grandfather from her past life, how in her past life too, after her father passed away, her grandfather had spoiled her, often driving him to great frustration, always raising his hand towards her forehead…

Sure enough, just as she expected, the hand was raised high and then gently came down…

Only brushing the blood-red forehead ornament at her forehead.

“Foster Father…” Gu Changsheng’s eyes suddenly moistened, and she softly called out.

Mr. Ban Shan was about to withdraw his hand when he felt someone tugging at his sleeve, and when he looked down, it scared him quite a bit.

He clearly hadn’t intended to hit hard; so why did Changsheng’s Beloved Daughter look like she was about to cry?

Being a new father, Mr. Ban Shan felt somewhat helpless, wanting to offer some comfort but not knowing what to say, only calling out remorsefully, “Daughter…”

He didn’t intend to scold his daughter; he was just too worried about Little Sun Sun, care leading to chaos, inevitably venting his anger.

But seeing his daughter like this, Mr. Ban Shan truly wished he could slap himself a few times and strike his own hand as well. How could he not have held back, redirecting his anger onto his daughter?

Where had his pride in his scholarly gentleness and restraint gone?

Gu Changsheng’s perception was extremely keen, with Mr. Ban Shan right in front of her, every bit of his regretful and remorseful expression fell into her eyes.

“Pfft!” Gu Changsheng suddenly burst out laughing.

Such a foster father was adorable, just like her grandfather!

Seeing her go from tears to laughter, Mr. Ban Shan became even more bewildered.

“Daughter?” Mr. Ban Shan called out anxiously.

He hoped his temper hadn’t frightened his daughter.

Now with Little Sun Sun missing, if something happened to his daughter too, he might as well not go on living!

“Hehe…”

Watching Mr. Ban Shan like this, Gu Changsheng chuckled again.

Just like her grandfather!

That kind of helpless frustration mixed with worry that she wouldn’t be happy looked exactly like, exactly like!

“Foster Father!” Gu Changsheng called out again, covering the smile on his face, grabbing Mr. Ban Shan’s sleeve tightly, and pouting as he spoke, “Foster Father, your little grandson isn’t lost; he skipped home fully armed! So what you should be worried about is the bad guys meeting him, not him meeting bad guys!”

“Uh…” Mr. Ban Shan stared in disbelief, totally speechless.

“A month ago, Little Meat Bun used Rosemary Soft Bone Powder on his master and traveled unimpeded from Huaizhou back to Liuzhou. At the foot of Baili Mountain, he encountered Han Qiu and also drugged him…”

“The Rosemary Soft Bone Powder was personally prepared by me for his protection. Even if he meets a real expert, as long as it takes effect, there’s no way they can remain standing, let alone take the other things he carried along.”

“The Purple Gold Mystery Bracelet contains hidden mechanisms. His master started giving him Gold Beans to buy snacks, and I added a few grains of Soul Attracting Incense to it. This medicine is even more domineering than the Rosemary Soft Bone Powder; though non-toxic, it can control one’s mind…”

“He also has a small folding fan that when triggered, can fire a hundred needles simultaneously. I coated those needles with Ten Fragrance Soft Muscle Powder…”

“…”

With every word Gu Changsheng spoke, everyone’s eyes widened a bit more. In the end, even Mr. Ban Shan had his mouth wide open, unable to close it.

“Therefore, when Little Meat Bun goes out, it’s absolutely him causing trouble for others; it’s very unlikely that others could harm him! You are really worrying about the wrong person…” Gu Changsheng leisurely concluded.

“Tsk, tsk… That being said, if any bad guys dare to confront him, their fate probably won’t be good… It’s quite pitiful when you think about it!” Gu Changsheng said, lips curling in sympathy.

No one knows a child better than the parent. Gu Changsheng really is the person who understands Little Meat Bun, Gu Ze, the most.

At this very moment, Little Meat Bun, Gu Ze, was in the largest brothel’s basement in Liuzhou, watching two traffickers tied to a cross. His round, shiny black eyes swiftly moving, a hint of wickedness flashed through them, “You sold me to a brothel, were you trying to make me become a Turtle Servant here?”

The two traffickers, with cloth stuffed in their mouths, shook their heads in panic.

Godfather! Always hunting hawks, today they were pecked in the eye by a hawk — they really met their match!

Little Meat Bun patted his well-fed little belly and spoke sadly, “According to The Music and Dance Academy’s rules, one cannot leave without earning some Silver even from reselling. I originally thought of sneaking out for a couple of days and then returning home, but you ended up selling me!”

“As the young master, I definitely can’t break The Music and Dance Academy’s rules, or else Peacock, Lion, and Tiger would certainly spank my bottom!”

“But if no one redeems me, I can’t return home, which is quite sad when you think about it!”

“You two bad guys, I’m miserable and you won’t have it any better. My mom says there’s no worst, only worse. I have lots of treasures; want to try out which one first?” Little Meat Bun said while unpacking his small bag, pulling out various items haphazardly, and soon spilling out a lot of things.

As he continued pulling things out, the dim basement suddenly brightened as if it were daylight.

The two traffickers, tied to the cross and looking at the Luminous Pearl pulled aside by Little Meat Bun, showed naked greed in their eyes.

That was a Luminous Pearl! With such radiance and so large a size! This was incomparably valuable; all those were Silver!

Seeing Silver, and countless Silver at that, how could they not be envious?

An old woman, dressed like a Procuress and holding a beautiful round fan, sat casually on a round chair nearby, watching Little Meat Bun busy on the floor while her eyes brimmed with indulgence turning into a sharp gaze toward the two tied traffickers.

Those two had sent quite a few people to their Music and Dance Academy before, most of who were forced into prostitution. But today, they unexpectedly sold their Young Master into it!

This was simply courting death!

Seeing their undisguised greed, the Procuress’s lips curled up in a mocking arc, clearly courting death! Already destined for doom, now they were even more guilty!

The Procuress thought so, discreetly signaling the beautiful maid by her side.

The meaning was clear–once the Young Master had his fill of fun, these two would have no need to be alive anymore!

…

Of course, Gu Changsheng didn’t know just how accurate her guessed prophecy was, because after the shock, people began another round of violent verbal criticism against her.

“Daughter, what have you actually given Little Grandson? If he accidentally hurts himself, what then?” Mr. Ban Shan was the first to speak up, his face full of disapproval, putting away his shock.

“Foster Father, your little grandson isn’t brainless. Would he drug himself? Apply needles to his own body?” Gu Changsheng retorted, unable to help but purse her lips. Her Little Meat Bun might usually be well-behaved and occasionally mischievous, but his intelligence was absolutely fine!

That part was like her!

“Still, that’s no excuse! You’re really bold. He’s so young and likely playful. What if he accidentally hurts someone else? That might still be okay, but what if he hurts himself? What then?”

“Uh…” Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng rolled her eyes outright. Her foster father really had great potential to be a Grandchild Spoiler!

What do you mean, hurting someone else might still be okay?

Ever seen such a person who’s lenient with themselves but strict with others?

“Foster Father, you can’t be so overprotective! The little tree that is Little Meat Bun already has a tendency to grow crookedly. If you keep this up, he might just grow up entirely crooked! When no one is there to take care of us in our old age, I’ll see who you’ll cry to!” Gu Changsheng accused with a face full of sorrow, as if aghast, certainly not willing to carry the blame alone–for such things, there should be shared responsibility!
