Chapter 446 The Unlucky Female Supporting Character in a Metaphysical Novel 23
Although Yun Qing counted carefully, she couldn't count them all in the end.
Unwilling to admit defeat, she cupped Pei Lin's face in her hands and said seriously, "Don't move, I'll count again."
As she counted, her vision blurred, and she lost track of where she was.
Seeing her frowning, with an air of determination that seemed to want to pluck all his eyelashes and count them again, Pei Lin helplessly reminded her, "Your friend is still waiting for you."
Yun Qing then remembered Wen Qi and Lin Ranran, and quickly stood up, saying, "Let's go quickly."
As soon as she stood up, she saw Pei Lin reach out his hand. She quickly put her hands behind her back to avoid his hand and said, "We should keep our distance for now."
It's still uncertain whether her absorbing his luck will actually harm him; she needs to observe further.
Pei Lin curled his fingers slightly, but didn't press the matter further. He simply withdrew his hand silently, looking somewhat disappointed.
Yun Qing couldn't help but feel guilty for harboring even a slight suspicion towards him.
However, matters of luck are of great importance, so it's always good to be cautious.
So he could only coax, "One day! We'll observe for one day. If everything's fine, I'll try my best to prolong your life, okay?"
Pei Lin seemed easily appeased and nodded, saying, "Okay."
The two left the private room one after the other.
Wen Qi and Lin Ranran were sitting in the hall. When they saw the two of them come out looking normal, as if they had reached an agreement, they felt relieved.
Pei Lin escorted them back to school. Along the way, although Yun Qing was talking to Wen Qilin and Ranran, her attention was entirely on Pei Lin.
If Pei Lin makes even the slightest movement, even just shifting his hand slightly, Yun Qing will immediately look over.
Seeing this, Wen Qi and Lin Ranran sighed inwardly, thinking how daughters are truly hard to keep at home once they grow up!
Upon arriving at the school gate, Pei Lin got out of the car and took out a large snack gift bag from the trunk, handing it to Yun Qing.
Although he rushed over to find Yun Qing, he had already promised to bring her snacks, so he naturally had to bring them. Anyway, he had already bought everything he needed to buy, and he was just wondering how to give them out little by little.
Now that he's been "saved," it's perfectly reasonable to give him anything; we should give him as much as possible to express our gratitude!
Yun Qing didn't refuse, and smiled happily while holding the snacks.
Seeing her like this, Pei Lin added worriedly, "Don't eat too many snacks, and make sure you eat proper meals."
Yun Qing nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I've been eating well. The food in our cafeteria is delicious now, the portions are generous, and it's cheap."
Upon hearing this, Pei Lin smiled with satisfaction.
Since Wen Qi and Lin Ranran were still there, Pei Lin didn't say much. He just reached out and rubbed her head before adding, "You should get a haircut. It's covering your eyes, which is bad for them."
After Yun Qing obediently agreed, he said goodbye and left.
Yun Qing, clutching her snacks, watched his car drive away before Wen Qi and Lin Ranran dragged her back to her dorm room for questioning.
Wen Qi crossed her arms and looked down at Yun Qing, who was being forced to sit on the stool. "Tell me! Do you like that Mr. Pei?"
Lin Ranran seemed afraid that Yun Qing was too naive to understand, so she added, "The kind of person who wants to sleep with him."
Yun Qing was shocked. "How can your thoughts be so filthy!"
"Ranran, you've been corrupted by Qiqi too."
Wen Qi pointed at her with her finger and snorted coldly, "Don't try to change the subject. On the way back, your eyes have been practically glued to Mr. Pei. Do you dare say you don't like him?"
Yun Qing said matter-of-factly, "I was just checking if he would be unlucky! It's not what you're thinking."
She couldn't tell Wen Qi and Lin Ranran about Pei Lin's fate, as it was a rather private matter.
Furthermore, Linlin also mentioned that some people in the metaphysical world coveted his destiny, so naturally, the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
She could only try her best to explain, "Even if I like him, it's a very pure liking, just like..."
She glanced around, then pointed to the black dragon figurine on her desk, "Just like how I like little black dragons."
Wen Qi and Lin Ranran looked at each other. Judging from her expression, she didn't seem to be lying. Was she still clueless?
I feel sorry for Mr. Pei for a second.
Anyway, they could tell that Mr. Pei's feelings for Yun Qing were definitely not pure.
They stopped interrogating you and instead asked, "How did your conversation with Mr. Pei go? Do you still need to find a master?"
Yun Qing hesitated for a moment. She really wanted to find a reliable master to ask about her destiny, but since people in the metaphysical world coveted Pei Lin's fate, she definitely couldn't just randomly look for a master anymore.
"I'll stop looking for it for now. Also, I need to keep my absorbing of Linlin's luck a secret."
We mustn't attract attention and expose Linlin.
Wen Qi and Lin Ranran were both very sensible. Hearing Yun Qing say this, they didn't ask any more questions, but promised not to tell anyone.
Then they saw Yun Qing take out a pair of scissors, reach out and brush aside her bangs, and raise her hand as if to snip them off.
The two men immediately shouted, "Stop!"
Yun Qing looked up at them, "What's wrong?"
Wen Qi snatched the scissors from her hand. "What do you want to do to your hair?"
Yun Qing said matter-of-factly, "I'll cut it short. Lin Lin said it's bad for your eyes if your hair covers them."
Wen Qi & Lin Ranran: ...You do listen to him.
But he definitely doesn't want you to get a haircut that looks like a dog chewed it!
Wen Qi and Lin Ranran lifted her up again, "Come on, let's go to the hair salon."
Yun Qing reluctantly shrank back, "I'm not going. I can cut it myself. I'm pretty good at it. Why waste money? I need to save money to buy Linlin a gift!"
Wen Qi started to flatter him, "Look, Mr. Pei always brings you food, he must hope you can grow up to be plump and healthy, so if you dress yourself up nicely, he will be very pleased."
Yun Qing asked suspiciously, "Really?"
Can being fair-skinned and chubby be equated with being pretty?
Lin Ranran continued to deceive, "Of course, everyone likes beautiful and lovely things."
Yun Qing stopped struggling instantly, because Lin Ranran's words were particularly convincing to her.
She has a particular fondness for good-looking people, and now all her friends are good-looking.
Qiqi and Ranran are pretty, but Linlin is the prettiest!
She's the only one who's not good-looking; it seems like she's not very pleasing to their eyes.
Yun Qing was tricked into getting a haircut, and on her way back, Wen Qi and Lin Ranran kept staring at her.
Wen Qi asked Lin Ranran, "You just got a haircut, right?"
Lin Ranran nodded.
Wen Qi exclaimed incredulously, "It's like you've had a completely different head! This hairstyle is actually quite ordinary!"
It's basically just that it was cut shorter, blow-dried to be more voluminous, and the thick bangs were styled to reveal the eyebrows and eyes.
Why does she suddenly look so much more energetic and beautiful?
She looks adorable and charming, yet with a touch of allure, like a pretty little kitten, making you want to reach out and pet her.
Lin Ranran said with a smile, "Yun Qing is already pretty. She would be even cuter if her face were a little fuller."
Moreover, this hairstyle is anything but ordinary compared to her previous ones.
Yunqing used to cut her own hair, just two snips and she was done.
Wen Qi looked Yun Qing up and down, stroking her chin as she said, "Indeed, Yun Qing's features are quite beautiful, especially her eyes..."
As she spoke, she reached out and took the glasses off Yun Qing's face. "These glasses are ruining the atmosphere. This looks much better."
She glanced at Yun Qing, then at the glasses in her hand, and tentatively asked, "How about we get some nicer glasses?"
Yun Qing shook her head frantically, "No, no, no..." I have no money! I won't trade!
Seeing Wen Qi's regretful expression, she hesitated and said, "I don't usually need to wear it, my prescription isn't high, but I have to wear it in class, otherwise I can't see very clearly."
She used to wear glasses all the time because she was so unlucky.
Although whether she can see clearly or not doesn't prevent her from having bad luck, seeing more clearly makes her feel a little safer.
"Ok."
This time, Wen Qi and Lin Ranran did not force her.
The three returned to their dormitory. Yun Qing was somewhat absent-minded and didn't know how Lin Lin was doing.
She couldn't concentrate on her book after reading for a while, so she simply left the dormitory and made a video call to Pei Lin.
She's going to conduct a surprise inspection to see if Linlin has been unlucky.
As soon as the video call connected, her eyes widened instantly, she covered her phone with her hand, and glanced around.
Then he shrank into the corner, half-opening his palm as if afraid of being seen by others, and secretly peeked at himself, saying in a low voice, "Put your clothes on properly!"
Pei Lin wasn't completely naked; he was just wrapped in a bathrobe, his chest half-open, water droplets slowly rolling down his skin and disappearing into the unseen depths hidden by the bathrobe, sparking the imagination.
Pei Lin pulled his bathrobe up with a nonchalant expression. "Sorry, I just finished showering."
