Su Youqin

Biodata

Background / History

Zhao Donghao’s Pursuit and Curse

Zhao Donghao began pursuing Su Youqin in middle school and continued throughout her four years at university, despite her repeated rejections. She expected graduation to finally free her from seeing him every day 12.

Following advice he received online, Zhao placed a Peach Blossom Sha on her. To test its effects before making himself the target of her attraction, he first directed her feelings toward a gay man. Under the curse, she declared love at first sight and pressured the man into dating her. Zhao observed the situation for a month before transferring her fixation to himself 12.

When the man ended their relationship, Su Youqin believed she had suffered a devastating breakup and entered the woods intending to end her life. Her fixation then shifted to Zhao, leaving her confused and guilty about the apparent change in her feelings. Zhao also tampered with surveillance footage to conceal his scheme 12.

Rescue and Exorcism

After Su Youqin disappeared, Qin Siyi sought help from Qu Nanzhu during his livestream. His divination led Qin to an abandoned factory near water, where she found Su Youqin barely conscious on discarded burlap sacks. Zhao was attempting to undo his belt; Qin kicked him away before he could sexually assault her 8.

Qin initially intended to take Su Youqin to a hospital, but Qu identified a Peach Blossom Sha and explained that he needed to treat it in person. At the Su residence, her parents reported that she had regained consciousness but remained distressed, prompting them to give her sleeping pills 8 10.

Qu discovered a yin talisman hidden inside her pillowcase and identified a chimei as the source of her condition. He destroyed the creature with heavenly lightning, then pursued and killed the curse’s caster through the backlash. Su Youqin’s unnatural flush immediately faded, and she began sleeping peacefully 11.

Aftermath

The following morning, Zhao confessed at the Su residence. Su Youqin was furious at learning how he had manipulated her and deeply embarrassed by her curse-induced pursuit of the gay man. She sharply rebuked the Zhao family’s requests for forgiveness. Her family contacted the police, who arranged for a specialized department to investigate 12.

After the Zhaos left, she shyly thanked Qu for saving her. Qin later posted a photograph of them in the Su family garden, showing Su Youqin looking shy but otherwise normal, alongside a public message thanking Qu 12 14.

Personality

Su Youqin is normally quiet and well-behaved, but she responds forcefully when wronged. After Zhao’s confession, she nearly got up to kick him several times and delivered cutting remarks to his parents when they sought forgiveness. Her anger contrasted with the composed posture she immediately adopted upon noticing Qu Nanzhu, whom she recognized as her rescuer 12.

Among friends, she is more openly enthusiastic and playful. She eagerly anticipated Qu’s housewarming, joined the group’s curiosity about his relationship with Huo Sili, and affectionately called Longbao “baby” while holding him at Huo’s birthday banquet 69 84 120.

Protective Items and Recovery

• Soul-stabilizing talisman — Given by Qu Nanzhu to repair the damage to her soul. He instructed that she wear it against her body continuously for at least half a year, including while bathing, and get plenty of sunlight 11.
• Room-warding talisman — Placed on her bedroom chandelier to dispel yin energy and ward off evil. Qu instructed the family to leave it there for at least a month, keep the room unoccupied during that period, and open its windows regularly 11.

Relationships

• Qin Siyi — Childhood friend who calls Su Youqin her younger sister. Qin located and rescued her, arranged Qu’s journey to G City, and defended her when Zhao begged for forgiveness 8 9 12.
• Qu Nanzhu — Rescuer and later friend. He broke her curse and prescribed protection for her damaged soul; she subsequently attended his gatherings and brought him gifts 11 12 69 130.
• Mr. and Mrs. Su — Parents. They arranged her care, welcomed Qu into their home, and contacted the police over Zhao’s actions 10 11 12.
• Zhao Donghao — Rejected pursuer who arranged the curse and attempted to assault her. His supposed romantic connection to her resulted from supernatural manipulation, not reciprocated affection 8 12.
• Longbao — Child in Qu’s household whom she treats affectionately; she held him and repeatedly called him “baby” at Huo Sili’s birthday banquet 120.
