Chapter 426 The Unlucky Female Supporting Character in a Metaphysical Novel 3
While Pei Lin was disciplining his cousin, Yun Qing was sitting on a bench downstairs at the hospital, eating an apple.
She ate very carefully, taking small bites, afraid of choking.
Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened, and she finished eating it smoothly.
The apple was sweet, and after she finished eating it, she felt a sense of comfort for her heart, which had been battered and bruised by bad luck.
I reached up and touched the bump on my forehead; it didn't hurt as much anymore.
She then got up and left, her steps much lighter.
As she walked, she suddenly stopped, silently took two steps back, and then looked down at the banana peel on the ground, lost in thought.
How come I didn't step on the banana peel that was so close to me and fall flat on my face?
Have we used up all the mold for today?
That's not right!
She came to the hospital today not because of her injury, but for a follow-up examination, and the results showed nothing wrong.
Although I bumped into someone at the hospital, I wasn't scolded or had to pay any compensation.
Although she bumped into a pillar, the water didn't splash on her, the wheelchair didn't hit her, the ice cream didn't smear her feet, and she even received a super sweet apple.
Thinking about it this way, she couldn't help but feel a little terrified.
She's having such good luck today? That's not normal!
Is a major disaster brewing? What if she gets hit by a car as soon as she leaves the hospital?
Yun Qing's good mood vanished instantly. She pursed her lips, and her eyes turned gloomy again.
She lowered her head, and her expression was obscured by her thick bangs and large glasses.
However, her gloomy aura made people reluctant to get close, and passersby would subconsciously keep their distance from her.
Yun Qing lowered her head, took two steps forward, then stepped back again, numbly picking up the banana peel from the ground and throwing it into the trash can.
Feeling depressed and apprehensive, she returned to school.
Standing at the dormitory door, she was still a little dazed. She had returned so smoothly? Nothing unexpected had happened?
The more this happened, the more frightened she became, even wondering if her life was coming to an end and she was experiencing a final burst of energy before death.
God is so unfair!
When she pushed open the dormitory door, filled with resentment, her two roommates were standing in front of the dressing mirror.
"Ranran, this necklace suits you so well!"
These two roommates are Wen Qi, who is outgoing and straightforward but not completely lacking in emotional intelligence, and Lin Ranran, who is gentle, speaks softly, and is a top student.
Both of them come from wealthy families, so their clothes, bags, jewelry, and cosmetics are all quite expensive.
They weren't deliberately showing off or satisfying their vanity; for them, it was just normal consumption.
The dormitory is a four-person room, and there is also a Yu You, who is mysterious and often disappears. No one knows what she is doing, but judging from her usual food, clothing and other necessities, she is not short of money.
Only Yun Qing is a poor wretch.
Her family was just an ordinary one, and she had a pampered younger brother.
Her bad luck was obvious to the naked eye, so bad that it exhausted her parents, who were even a little afraid of her, suspecting that she was a jinx reincarnated, and they were not very close to her since childhood.
They didn't completely abandon her; they still paid her tuition and gave her a little bit of living expenses.
But emotionally, it's similar to being a neighbor you know but aren't close to.
When Yunqing eats at home, she always sits at a small table by herself.
After starting university, Yun Qing never went home. Her absence made everyone feel more at ease.
When Yunqing has free time, she does part-time jobs and earns some money. Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't be in such dire straits.
But she was just unlucky!
They get injured every few days, or get into trouble that requires them to pay compensation, and they also lose things from time to time.
Accidents often happen while working part-time, and in severe cases, the money earned from part-time work is already spent before the employee even receives it.
But not taking a part-time job isn't an option either.
Do you think you'll avoid accidents if you don't take part-time jobs? You'll still have your share of bad luck.
So even though she worked very hard, she was still very poor, and when she was really unlucky, she could go without food.
As a result, she felt resentful and jealous towards her three roommates.
At this moment, her eyes were fixed on the expensive necklace around Lin Ranran's neck, and her negative emotions began to surge wildly.
Lin Ranran was startled when she met her gloomy gaze in the mirror. She turned her head sharply to look at her, steadied her heartbeat, and then said, "Qiao Yunqing, you're back?"
Yun Qing didn't say anything, lowered her head and walked to her desk, opened the drawer, took out a tube of ointment, then brushed aside her thick bangs to apply some medicine.
When Wen Qi and Lin Ranran saw the large bump on her head, they couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
They are now sophomores in college, and after more than a year of getting to know each other, they have a pretty good understanding of Qiao Yunqing's unlucky nature.
So even though this roommate was usually gloomy, occasionally had a scary look in her eyes, and was not easy to get along with, they did not dislike her because of it.
After all, anyone would get depressed if they had this kind of bad luck.
However, they couldn't get along, so they remained only superficially acquainted and each did their own thing.
Yun Qing took off her glasses, then squeezed out some ointment and applied it to the large bump on her forehead. She accidentally pressed too hard, and the pain brought tears to her eyes.
Wen Qi and Lin Ranran felt a pang of pity for her pitiful appearance, but they didn't know how to comfort her.
Don't say anything about your luck changing soon; that's not true.
If I say something encouraging to her, it seems like I'm just talking without understanding the situation.
Lin Ranran hesitated for a moment, then took the fruit plate from her table and tentatively placed it on Yun Qing's table, asking, "Qiao Yun Qing, I bought too many strawberries, do you want some?"
After she finished speaking, she realized that her way of comforting others was ineffective.
Based on past experience, Qiao Yunqing would not have accepted it.
Sure enough, Yun Qing lowered her eyes and remained silent. Although she did not explicitly refuse, she seemed to not want it.
In reality, Yun Qing was so ashamed that she couldn't lift her head.
She gave me strawberries! She's so kind!
I was actually jealous of her and even tried to break her necklace. I deserve to die!
Lin Ranran was hesitating whether to take the fruit platter back when Yun Qing suddenly reached out and hugged it, her tone as firm as if she were joining the Party, "I'll eat it!"
"Oh..." Lin Ranran awkwardly withdrew her hand from the fruit plate she was about to take back.
At this moment, Yun Qing looked up at her again and said solemnly, "You are a good person!"
Lin Ranran, who was suddenly given the "friend zone" card: ...Huh?
Lin Ranran, the top student, was a little confused and tentatively asked, "Thank you?"
"You're welcome."
Yun Qing has made up her mind: she will never be jealous of Lin Ranran again!
Lin Ranran walked back to Wen Qi's side, somewhat bewildered. The two stood together and watched Yun Qing wash her hands, then pick up a strawberry, take a bite, and squint her eyes as she ate, but kept a straight face.
It looks like he's visibly happy, yet there's also a sense of tragic grandeur about it.
Lin Ranran & Wen Qi: ? ? ?
Why do I have this feeling that if I eat this meal, I might not have another one?
Are they out of money for food?
The two men felt a pang of unease as they watched her savor the food with such reverence.
Wen Qi turned around and ran to rummage through her cabinet, found a few bags of snacks, and put them on Yun Qing's desk, saying, "Here you go."
He also slipped two more packs to Lin Ranran, indicating that everyone should have some.
The usually carefree girl was clearly being careful to protect Yun Qing's self-esteem.
Yun Qing looked up at her and said just as solemnly, "You are a good person too."
I won't be jealous of you anymore!
Because of Lin Ranran's recent incident, Wen Qi wasn't confused by being friend-zoned; in fact, she was quite amused.
But in the blink of an eye, Yun Qing ate with even more tragic solemnity.
She couldn't help but ask, "Qiao Yunqing, why are you eating like it's your last meal? If you're short of money right now, I can lend you some."
Yun Qing shook her head, her tone heavy with resentment and grievance, "It's not about money anymore. I might die soon. Thank you for seeing me off."
Lin Ranran & Wen Qi: !!
