Chapter 442 The Unlucky Female Supporting Character in a Metaphysical Novel 19
Wen Qi and Lin Ranran were skeptical about the idea of absorbing people's luck, but Yun Qing's analysis seemed to make a lot of sense.
Lin Ranran asked, "So what do you plan to do?"
Given how much Yunqing cared for Mr. Pei, as if she wanted to worship him, she worried that Yunqing might get stuck in a rut and do something foolish.
However, Yun Qing was clearly much stronger than she had imagined.
Thinking about it, it makes sense. Yun Qing has always been so unlucky, but she hasn't broken down and has managed to get into university. She's definitely not the kind of person who gives up at the first sign of trouble.
Yun Qing had already thought of a specific solution on her way back. She sniffed and said:
"I need to work hard to make money, and then find a reliable master to see if he can stop me from sucking away Linlin's luck."
As for returning what she absorbed, that's probably impossible, because the luck she absorbed has all been used up, and she herself doesn't have much luck, so she simply can't repay it.
"Until then, I can only avoid seeing him."
After she finished speaking, she said somewhat sadly, "If Linlin knew how bad I am, she probably wouldn't want to be friends with me anymore, right?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Ranran grasped her shoulders with both hands, looked into her eyes, and said seriously, "Yun Qing, you are very good!"
"Even if the luck-stealing thing is true, it wasn't your intention, and you're already trying to make amends."
Wen Qi nodded and said, "You resisted the temptation of a change of fortune and didn't want to hurt others. You're great!"
Imagine someone else who's been unlucky for so long suddenly experiences good fortune, their life becomes smooth sailing with no more setbacks, and they even win big prizes anytime, anywhere.
Even if they knew they were absorbing someone else's luck, they probably couldn't resist such a temptation, right?
Yun Qing was comforted by them and cheered up, saying, "Then I will work hard to earn money and buy Linlin lots of gifts to make it up to him."
Knowing that this would make Yun Qing feel better and lessen her guilt, Wen Qi and Lin Ranran didn't say anything more.
Wen Qi thought for a moment and said, "Then Ranran and I will try our best to find out where there are real masters."
Whether or not she absorbed someone else's luck is still unknown, but Yun Qing has already made up her mind about it.
Let the master see what's going on.

Pei Lin, who was busy in the office, suddenly heard a noise. He looked up and found that the silly dog massage doll he had placed on the sofa had rolled to the ground.
He thought he hadn't put it away properly, so he got up, went over to pick it up, put it back on the sofa, and then went back to his desk to sit down and continue working.
But with a "thud," the silly dog rolled to the ground again.
Pei Lin hesitated slightly. He remembered that he had just put it away, right?
He got up again, went over and picked up the silly dog. This time, after putting it down, he patted it to make sure it wouldn't roll away again before turning and walking towards his desk.
However, before he could take two steps, there was another "smack".
Pei Lin turned around and saw that the silly dog had fallen to the ground again.
He frowned and looked around. Wasn't it said that even ghosts were afraid of him?
Could it be that his destiny is fake? What about Yun Qing then?
After the silly dog rolled off the ground three times, his cufflinks inexplicably fell off twice more.
Pei Lin, who considered himself to be emotionally stable, began to feel anxious. How could it be such a coincidence that all the gifts Yun Qing gave him had problems?
Is this some kind of hint?
He couldn't concentrate on his work anymore, so he took out his phone and sent a message to Yun Qing.
Can I pick you up at the school gate at six o'clock?
Yun Qing quickly replied, "I have a part-time job and can't get away, so I can't have dinner with you tonight."
【sorry.】
If Pei Lin hadn't just experienced a paranormal event, he probably would have just felt a little disappointed and decided to reschedule for tomorrow without giving it much thought.
But now he felt something was wrong.
Yun Qing usually loves sending emojis, but she didn't this time, so much so that even though it was just text, he inexplicably felt the seriousness of her apology.
Moreover, Yunqing sent him a message before going to her part-time job in the afternoon, saying that she was going to tutor a sick child who was absent from school, and it would only take two hours.
That clearly means it won't interfere with having dinner together that night.
Pei Lin frowned and tentatively asked, "Shall I bring you some snacks later?"
Yunqing in the dormitory suddenly burst into tears again.
Wen Qi and Lin Ranran rushed over to comfort her, "What's wrong?"
Weren't you just brimming with energy, saying you were going to work hard to make money? Why are you crying again?
"Waaah... I'm so guilty! Rin was so, so, so good to me, and he even said he'd bring me snacks, and I hurt him! I deserve to die!"
Wen Qi & Lin Ranran: ...
Didn't we just get a box of beef jerky at noon? Why are you sending snacks again?
Putting aside whether he absorbed any luck or not, let's just talk about Mr. Pei. Isn't his kindness towards Yun Qing a little abnormal?
While sobbing and filled with guilt, Yun Qing replied with a heavy heart, "No need, I'll give up snacks from now on."
Upon seeing this message, Pei Lin grabbed his suit jacket from his office chair and left without saying a word.
We have to give up snacks! This is unacceptable!

While Pei Lin was rushing to find Yun Qing, Grandma Pei was shopping with her old friends, casually inquiring about metaphysics.
Her old friend has always been quite superstitious about these things, and she often burns incense and adds some money for incense oil.
There was even a master with whom they were on good terms, who was said to be very powerful.
It was this old friend who reminded her to consult a master about the Jiang family's situation. However, since the master she was on good terms with was unavailable, she had to find several well-known masters herself.
It is said that the master went abroad for an exchange program and has not returned yet.
Grandma Pei didn't understand but felt it was impressive.
Actually, Grandma Pei used to believe in metaphysics for a while, but later, influenced by Pei Lin, she discovered that those seemingly magical things could indeed be explained by Pei Lin using science, so she gradually stopped believing in metaphysics.
Who knew that at the very last moment, they would tell her that there really is such a thing as metaphysics!
Now that Pei Lin has this problem with his destiny, she doesn't dare to consult a master casually, for fear of inviting trouble. So she can only learn more about the Xuanmen (Taoist sect) from her old friends first, trying to know herself and her enemy.
Pei's father hired a group of top-notch bodyguards specifically for Pei Lin's case, although they might not be able to prevent the use of mystical methods against Pei Lin, such as possession by ghosts or soul-stealing.
However, if a metaphysical master deliberately creates an accident to kill Pei Lin, he believes the bodyguard could still save his life.
Moreover, he felt that not only Pei Lin needed it, but the rest of their family members also needed it.
He heard that if someone's luck is too strong, the ghosts and monsters can't do anything to them. They will choose to target the people around them, making them run around in circles. Once the person is exhausted and their luck is low, they will seize the opportunity to attack them.
Although I don't know if it's true or not, it's always good to be cautious.
The bodyguards only arrived today, and Pei Lin hasn't had a chance to use them yet, but Grandma Pei brought two with her when she came out.
Grandma Pei and her old friends were talking as they came out of the mall when suddenly a sports car went out of control, veering wildly and hurtling towards them amidst the tumbling, screaming, and rolling of the surrounding crowd.
The two bodyguards reacted quickly and reached out to pull the two elderly women apart.
This was not a difficult task for them; they were confident that they could ensure the two elderly women were safe and sound.
However, at that moment, a figure suddenly rushed over, beat the bodyguard to the punch, and tackled Grandma Pei to the ground.
The two then rolled several times on the ground, successfully avoiding the oncoming sports car.
Grandma Pei's old friend was also pulled away by the bodyguards in time.
It seemed like a false alarm, but things turned out well.
But the two bodyguards were almost furious!
Where did this reckless brat come from? He has no skills whatsoever, yet he dares to act like a hero?
The old lady is very old, and you suddenly tackle her to the ground and start rolling around on the floor with her in your arms?
My high salary will be ruined by you sooner or later!
This minor accident startled many people, but fortunately it did not cause any serious harm; only a few people suffered minor injuries.
The sports car also came to a stop with a screeching sound of brakes.
Seeing that the crisis had passed, Yu You was about to reach out to help Grandma Pei up when the bodyguard stopped her, "Don't move!"
Then the bodyguard anxiously asked, "Madam, are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
Yu You calmly said, "Don't worry, this grandma is not injured."
The person she wants to save, even the King of Hell couldn't take away from her!
The bodyguard had no idea that Yu You was a profound and unfathomable master of metaphysics; he just thought she was talking nonsense!
Are you a doctor? Have you carefully examined the old lady's condition?
He immediately said he wasn't injured, but can't you see the old lady is still in a daze?
I don't know if he hit his head.
If such a minor accident were to injure the person they are protecting, it would be an utter disgrace to their career!
