Chapter 431 The Unlucky Female Supporting Character in a Metaphysical Novel 8
Jiang's father also thought of Pei Lin.
He couldn't help but frown. Shouldn't a person's destiny be a private matter? How could he just casually reveal it?
Especially since it's such a special and precious destiny.
Precious things are always coveted by some, who will even resort to any means to seize them. What about a precious destiny?
By getting close to Ah Lin, they can receive his protection and fortune, making them untouchable even by ghosts.
What if one could obtain all of his fortune? If this were to be publicized, how many people would be envious?
Mr. Jiang even carefully observed the expressions of the two masters, becoming more wary of them.
After all, these masters have unpredictable methods; who knows if they can strip someone of their destiny for their own use?
Especially this Master Yu, he seems to be very powerful.
Although he appears to be a detached and detached person, one can never truly know a person's heart, and it's always good to be cautious.
In the original storyline, since Pei Lin was also present and he himself didn't care, Jiang's father naturally didn't say much, at most offering a reminder.
But now that Pei Lin is not here, this matter has started because of their family's affairs. Pei Lin's destiny was discovered because he protected their family.
Mr. Jiang is not such a heartless person.
He gave Pei Wanning a wink, and Pei Wanning, who was quite in sync with him, quickly found an excuse to leave. She then called Pei Lin and told him not to come to the Jiang family today, lest he run into those two masters.
The master wanted to discuss this rare destiny with Yu You a little more, but was interrupted by Jiang's father, "Master Yu, when do you think that ghost can be dealt with? It's really making people uneasy here!"
Yu You always puts her clients first. She is a master, not a charlatan. She doesn't prioritize money above all else. She values good deeds more than money.
At this point, she said honestly, "Actually, you don't need to invite any more masters. The ghost has already been sealed in the room, so it can't escape. You just need to let President Pei go in and walk around, and that will be enough to make its soul disappear."
Mr. Jiang became increasingly wary. Did this master already know that Ah Lin was the person with the most noble destiny?
He remained outwardly calm, but appeared anxious, as if afraid Yu You would abandon the project. He frowned and said, "What kind of fate is this? I don't think it's reliable. Master, please help me resolve this. I trust you more!"
Regardless of whether Master Yu had any designs on Pei Lin, Jiang's father felt it was inappropriate to let Pei Lin inexplicably bear a ghostly fate.
It's better to leave professional matters to professionals. Isn't that what masters do?
Pei Lin has always believed in science and doesn't understand these things at all. What if something goes wrong? His older brother and sister-in-law would kill him!
Besides, he wouldn't mistreat the master; as long as this matter can be resolved, he'll definitely be generous.
If something can be solved with money, then it's not a problem.
Because of Jiang's father's insistence, Yu You finally took matters into her own hands and dealt with the ghost.
She originally intended to waive the fee out of respect for Pei Lin, but Jiang's father was so frightened that he quickly gave her an extra 200,000 yuan according to her fee schedule.
Mr. Jiang is a businessman, and he knows very well that if someone doesn't take money when they should, they must have ulterior motives!
After the matter was resolved and the money was paid, the Jiang family politely saw the two masters off. Pei Wanning then gave her husband a thumbs up.
"You're smart. When I called Ah Lin just now, I casually asked her, and she said she doesn't know any Master Yu at all. What kind of face is she showing?"
Jiang Yao didn't think that much about it. In his mind, his cousin was more cunning than anyone else, and he was the one who schemed against others, so there was no need to worry about him at all.
He exclaimed loudly from the side, "No wonder I get scared when I look at my cousin! It's not that I'm a coward, it's that even ghosts are afraid of him!"
Pei Wanning glared at her silly son, who was really not even half as good as A Lin.
Oh well, if I can't make it, I can't make it.
You can't throw away what you gave birth to yourself.
Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, fools have their own kind of luck, and suffering a loss can be a blessing...
She was content as long as he was safe and sound.
She turned to remind Jiang's father, "We need to talk to A-Lin about this carefully."
“That Master Yu helped us solve a major problem, and we should be grateful. But it seems she really wants to take advantage of Ah Lin. We need to warn Ah Lin so she doesn’t fall into her trap.”
Mr. Jiang nodded, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
He joked, "If Ah Lin is really as powerful as that Master Yu said, he's like a pillar of strength, protecting us all! We can't let anything happen to him!"
"As long as he doesn't fall, neither the Pei family nor the Jiang family will fall."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yao looked mournful and asked, "So, is my cousin's status going to rise even higher? Does that mean I'll have even less status in the future?"
Luckily, he's easygoing, otherwise he would have definitely become jealous and turned evil.
Pei Wanning tapped his head, "You should be grateful! Your dad and I have had several accidents, big and small, but you managed to delay until just two days ago when you had your accident. You must have been hanging around Ah Lin recently and he was protecting you."
Jiang Yao thought about it and realized it was quite possible.
From childhood to adulthood, he and his cousin have never had any accidents together, and they have always managed to escape danger.
Of course, besides suddenly receiving his cousin's concern, he was also inexplicably beaten up by his parents.
He made up his mind: from now on, he would cling to his cousin's coattails and live a life of leisure and idleness!
Because Yun Qing was so unlucky, Pei Lin was worried about her going back to school alone, so he sent her back directly.
When Zhao Qian finally met President Pei at the school gate, he saw him touching the dry, yellow hair of the unlucky guy he had met at the hospital, hair that looked terrible to the touch.
Zhao Qian: ???
What did I miss? How did you guys become so close all of a sudden? Isn't this a bit too intimate?
He walked over with the documents and saw the unlucky guy holding a large bag of snacks, looking very grateful, and said, "Mr. Pei, thank you so much for today!"
"You saved my life, accompanied me to the hospital for a checkup, sent me photos, and bought me snacks. You are my best friend!"
"If you ever need my help in the future, I will definitely go to great lengths for you!"
Pei Lin chuckled, "What would I need you to go through fire and water for? To scare me?"
Yun Qing raised her hand to smooth her bangs, which he had ruffled, and lowered her eyes to think seriously. "It's not impossible."
"If you are being chased and your life hangs by a thread, and I'm willing to risk my life to scare the pursuers away, then I can save your life and repay your kindness."
Zhao Qian: ...
How can you curse your savior like that? Even though President Pei earns a lot, which makes others envious, he doesn't deserve this!
Pei Lin wasn't angry, but his expression was somewhat serious. He looked at Yun Qing and said, "Don't be so foolish, always going to great lengths for others. You should love yourself more."
"It's good to be grateful, but don't give your heart and soul and risk your life just because someone is kind to you in the smallest way."
"Did you remember?"
Pei Lin's worries were not unfounded. Based on his current understanding of Yun Qing, this girl was particularly unlucky, living a very bad life, and lacking love.
Such people tend to overemphasize even the smallest acts of kindness from others, sometimes to the point of self-destruction.
Yun Qing wanted to retort, "But..." It's not just a little bit good, it's a life-saving grace!
There are also eye-catching photos and delicious snacks.
Before she could even finish speaking, Pei Lin reached out to take the snacks back.
Yun Qing quickly grabbed the snacks and said urgently, "I remember, I remember! I won't go through fire and water for you anymore!"
Then she turned and ran, shouting without looking back, "I'll go through fire and water!"
Pei Lin quickly said, "Slow down!"
He was afraid she might suddenly trip and fall, getting her face covered in blood.
Fortunately, Yun Qing ran away safely.
However, Pei Lin was also pondering whether he could ask a master for a luck-changing talisman to see if he could change the little girl's luck.
