Chapter 443 The Unlucky Female Supporting Character in a Metaphysical Novel 20
Grandma Pei wasn't someone who couldn't handle things; she wasn't scared out of her wits when faced with the oncoming sports car.
But suddenly something rushed over and knocked her down, and after a tumble, her head was spinning.
Her old friend was fine, but after patting her heart that had been shaken, she quickly came over and said, "Don't move around, just call an ambulance. At our age, we're most afraid of breaking bones."
After saying that, she looked at Yu You with some displeasure and said, "You little girl, really, didn't you see we have bodyguards around? You rushed over so recklessly, weren't you just making things worse?"
Yu You happened to catch a glimpse of a wisp of purple aura floating around Grandma Pei, and without thinking much, she stepped in to save her.
She meant well, but now that she's being blamed, she can't help but feel a little unhappy.
Grandma Pei recovered and lay on the ground without moving, listening to her advice. She said in a good-natured tone, "Afen, I'm fine. Don't be angry. Take care of yourself. This young girl meant well. It was so chaotic at the time, how could she have paid attention to so many things?"
After saying that, she looked at Yu You and asked, "Little girl, are you alright?"
Yu You shook her head, looking rather obedient. "I'm fine. Grandma can just call me Yu You."
Then, Grandma Pei sprang up from the ground with a "whoosh" and took several steps back. Her agile figure was something even young people couldn't match.
The two bodyguards, their faces grave, quickly stepped in front of the old lady, watching Yu You warily.
The employer had told them to pay special attention to those metaphysical masters, especially a young woman named Yu You.
Now it seems this is the person standing in front of me.
No wonder! There were people closer to her who were almost hit by a car, but she didn't help them. Instead, she ran to save the old lady with bodyguards. It turns out she came for the old lady!
Grandma Pei's old friend, unaware of what had happened, was quite startled by Grandma Pei's agile movements and quickly reached out to support her, saying, "Oh dear! What are you doing? Such a big movement, do you even want to keep your old bones up?"
Judging from the looks of it, he probably wasn't seriously injured.
Yu You frowned upon seeing this.
The way the two bodyguards looked at her was as if she were some kind of monster.
Even the grandmother she rescued had her once kind eyes turn sharp and wary of her.
Yu You didn't understand where the problem lay.
Grandma Pei patted her chest with lingering fear, realizing that Yao Yao had been right!
They're really targeting this elderly woman! I almost fell for it!
Such a pretty and kind-looking girl, saving her despite the danger, though a bit reckless, was done with good intentions. If she were to try to please her further, the girl might actually develop feelings for her, giving her a chance to get to know Ah Lin.
Fortunately, they were already on guard against this Master Yu.
In the original storyline, Yu You actually saved Grandma Pei by chance.
However, since it wasn't a car accident like this, and Grandma Pei didn't have any bodyguards with her, Yu You was much more at ease rescuing her, and her demeanor was calm. She didn't end up rolling around with the person in such a disheveled state, and she even had to use a talisman to ensure that the old lady could be lively and energetic now.
And Grandma Pei, who was rescued, would no longer be wary of her as she is now when she hears her name, but would be very grateful to her.
After learning that she was the one who helped the Jiang family get rid of the evil spirit, he felt even closer to her.
In addition, Yu You helped the Pei family several times later, so Grandma Pei liked her even more and tried her best to match her with Pei Lin.
Yu You had always intended to marry Pei Lin, and Pei Lin also had a good impression of Yu You. With the help of Pei's grandmother, their relationship naturally progressed rapidly.
Now, however, Grandma Pei is keeping a close watch on her, determined not to give her any chance to come into contact with Pei Lin.
Even when the bodyguards were worried and wanted to take her to the hospital for a check-up, she didn't let them notify Pei Lin. Instead, they notified Pei's father, fearing that Yu You might secretly go to the hospital to confront him.
Grandma Pei didn't know much about the methods of metaphysical masters, so she felt it was best to prevent Pei Lin from meeting this Master Yu.
Yu You watched them leave with suspicion towards her, without even saying goodbye or paying her any attention, and felt a little resentful.
How could this old woman be like this! She did save her, didn't she?
Yu You knew that this old lady must be related to Pei Lin, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to get some purple energy from him.
However, she has always maintained her pride, and since people were treating her like a thief, she naturally couldn't bring herself to approach them.
She frowned, feeling a little irritated.
She is finding it increasingly difficult to predict Pei Lin's fate, and the people and events closely related to him are also becoming increasingly unclear to her.
She wasn't sure if it was because Pei Lin's fate had suddenly changed drastically and the purple aura was intentionally concealing it, or if it was because Pei Lin was connected to her that it was affected; it was difficult to calculate.
If it's the latter, that would be a good thing. The greater the influence she was affected by during her calculations, the closer her connection with Pei Lin would be.
But if it's the former, she has to worry about whether it will affect her marriage with Pei Lin.
Yu You was getting anxious. Time was of the essence, and she didn't know when her tribulation would arrive. She had to marry Pei Lin as soon as possible.
If approaching him indirectly through people around him doesn't work, then she'll have no choice but to go directly to him.
Perhaps we could try a negotiated marriage first?

When Pei Lin arrived at Yun Qing's school, he happened to run into Wen Qi and Lin Ranran taking Yun Qing to a snack street near the school to relax.
As the three of them came out of the school gate, Wen Qi was still saying, "I'm covering everything for tonight, so don't any of you try to take it from me!"
Lin Ranran raised her chin in agreement, looking smug, and said, "Alright, I'll give you a chance to treat me."
Yunqing knew they wanted to cheer her up, but didn't want her to spend too much money.
She hugged their arms, one on each side, nuzzling them gently, and said emotionally, "Qiqi, Ranran, you two are so kind!"
Pei Lin: ...
She suddenly realized that he really was no different from her other friends.
Just as he was feeling a bit down, Wen Qi said, "Yun Qing, how about we go get some super spicy hot pot later? When you're in a bad mood, eating something spicy will make you feel better."
Yun Qing couldn't help but swallow hard. Just as she was about to nod, she looked up as if sensing something and saw Pei Lin.
Then, with lightning speed, she used both hands to pull Wen Qi and Lin Ranran together, and then shrank back to hide behind them.
Pei Lin felt much better when he heard Wen Qi address Yun Qing.
Before he could even greet her, Yun Qing appeared to be avoiding him like the plague, hiding behind her friend.
Pei Lin's heart sank, and he frowned, trying to recall if he had done anything to make Yun Qing uncomfortable.
But everything was fine before. Yun Qing was happy when they parted at noon, and there was nothing wrong with the messages she sent him afterwards.
When the gift she gave him turned out to have a problem, and he contacted her again, something seemed off.
What exactly happened during this period?
Did she suddenly realize that his previous behavior was indecent and therefore think he wasn't a good person?
Wen Qi and Lin Ranran hadn't even realized what had happened yet, and asked in bewilderment, "Yun Qing, what's wrong?"
Yun Qing kept her head down and hid behind the two without saying a word, and even tried to pull them back together.
Wen Qi & Lin Ranran: ? ? ?
"Qingqing..."
Upon hearing Pei Lin's voice, Yun Qing's hand froze, and she slowly peeked out from behind Wen Qi and Lin Ranran's shoulders to observe the situation.
Seeing Pei Lin about to walk towards them, she hurriedly said, "You...you stay away! Stay away from me!"
Pei Lin's face showed a hurt expression. "Qingqing, what did I do wrong? You have to tell me, right?"
Seeing him like that, Yun Qing felt a pang of sadness, and said with tears in her eyes, "You're so good. It's all my fault. I'm so bad. I've repaid kindness with enmity. I'm such an ingrate..."
Wen Qi and Lin Ranran looked at each other, realizing that this was Mr. Pei.
However, judging from this, Mr. Pei, who has an outstanding appearance and temperament and whose family background seems to be quite impressive, really wants to "lure" an innocent young girl!
Just tell me his treatment of Yun Qing was abnormally good!
