My backyard leads to the underworld. I became famous by selling goods.
Chapter 148: Still Single at This Age
Qi Yefeng immediately thought of Chief Ling Jiao, whom he had met once before.
Qi Yefeng's memory of Ling Jiao still lingered on that time. He looked at Song Mian with some worry: "Miss Song, does the commander have any business he wants to ask you to do?"
Song Mian nodded and said calmly, "Yes. I never agreed to Chief Ling Jiao before, but I think now is a good opportunity."
In the past, Song Mian just wanted to make some money so that he could be more at her side.
But now, the people from the Song family who were pestering him made Song Mian understand one thing.
The people of the Song family are not so easy to deal with. If she continues to get entangled with this group of people, even if she doesn't want to get entangled in things about the past, no one in the Song family will let her go.
In this case, she might as well find a backer to protect her.
And obviously, Ling Jiao is a good candidate.
She can help Ling Jiao without even asking for any material reward, as long as Ling Jiao can provide her with some other protection and help, then she will not lose out.
Qi Yefeng saw Song Mian's determined expression and felt very nervous.
Ever since he met Song Mian, the biggest danger Song Mian encountered was the time when he was with Xiao Shitou and the others.
That time, Song Mian encountered human traffickers and was dying. If it weren't for her good luck and the help of those little ghosts, she would probably have been sold into the mountains by now.
Some of the supernatural events that Ling Jiao needs to solve are definitely very tricky.
Thinking of this, Qi Yefeng actually wanted to object.
In fact, as long as Song Mian is willing, the Qi family doesn't mind supporting her and her grandmother directly.
Qi Yefeng had hinted at this issue before, but unfortunately Song Mian was never willing to do so.
The words he wanted to use to dissuade her were on the tip of his tongue, but before Qi Yefeng could open his mouth, he heard Song Mian's firm voice.
"Mr. Qi, I have already thought about it. Please don't stop me."
At this point, Qi Yefeng was powerless to help even if he wanted to. He could only sigh heavily: "Okay, since you have made up your mind, then I will take you to see Chief Ling Jiao. Do you know his exact location now?"
Song Mian told Qi Yefeng where Chief Ling Jiao lived.
Chief Ling Jiao lives in a small alley in the city center. Most of the houses here are quadrangles left over from the past. They look simple, but in fact, unless you are an older generation living in the city center, it is difficult for ordinary people to buy real estate here even if they spend money.
After arriving at Chief Ling Jiao's door and knocking, Song Mian soon heard a response from the ancient vermilion door.
"I'm here." The person who came to visit was an old woman. She had a kind smile and was slightly stunned when she saw Song Mian.
When Song Mian was thinking about how to introduce herself, she saw the old woman smiling brightly at her.
"Are you Song Mian, Miss Song?" The old woman's eyes were filled with joy. She looked at Song Mian and asked.
Looking at the kind face of the old woman, Song Mian subconsciously thought of his grandmother.
The old woman and grandma not only looked of similar age, but also had an innate gentle temperament. Seeing this, Song Mian's heart softened, and he couldn't help but want to get close to this old lady.
"Yes, I am Song Mian. Old man, do you know me?" Song Mian carefully observed the old man in front of her and was sure that this was the first time she saw this old man.
"I don't know you. I just heard Ling Jiao mention you. At that time, Ling Jiao praised you highly, saying that you were young, beautiful, and most importantly, very capable."
Song Mian rarely received such praise, and for a moment he felt a little embarrassed: "You keep praising me like this, it makes me feel embarrassed."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Grandma has met many people and I can tell at first glance that you are a good child. You should be here to see Ling Jiao today, right? Come in quickly, and grandma will get you some snacks." Without giving Song Mian any chance to refuse, Grandma Li stretched out her hand and pulled Song Mian into the courtyard first.
Qi Yefeng was a little worried about Song Mian, so he followed him into the courtyard.
All the decorations in the courtyard seemed very simple. Qi Yefeng and Song Mian seemed a little restrained after entering the courtyard, and looked at the surrounding environment at a loss.
Fortunately, Grandma Li was very enthusiastic. She had been talking non-stop since she met Song Mian and the other two, and kept greeting them.
Song Mian and Qi Yefeng drank tea and ate snacks, and both of them relaxed a lot.
Granny Li sat next to the two of them and observed them for a while before tentatively asking, "Xiao Mian, is this Mr. Qi your boyfriend?"
Song Mian was surprised by what Granny Li said, and immediately spat out a mouthful of tea: "No, we are not in that kind of relationship, Granny, you misunderstood."
Who knew that after hearing what Song Mian said, Granny Li actually revealed a face full of joy: "Okay, okay, it's good that it's not. If it's not, then I'm relieved! Xiao Mian, grandma has always liked you very much since I met you. If you are single, grandma will introduce you to someone in the future. I guarantee that they are very good in all aspects!"
Seeing that Granny Li was serious about what she said, Song Mian didn't know how to refuse Granny Li's kindness for a moment.
Men only affect her speed in drawing her sword, she has never thought about this!
However, although Song Mian thought so, his face remained expressionless and he could only agree awkwardly.
At this moment, a weak sigh came over: "Mother Li, you are messing around with couples again."
The familiar voice caught Song Mian's attention. Song Mian looked forward and saw Ling Jiao in casual clothes walking out of the study.
Ling Jiao still looked so gentle. When he saw Song Mian, he nodded and greeted her: "Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. I just had a conference call. I wanted to end it as soon as possible, but it was delayed until now."
Song Mian looked indifferent and quickly said, "It's okay. We all know you're busy and we totally understand."
"That's right, these two children are both obedient and sensible. I love them so much." Aunt Li poured tea for Ling Jiao and said seriously, "Besides, I'm thinking about these two children wholeheartedly. How can you still accuse me of matchmaking? You're still single at your age, and I'm already worried. Now I'm sharing some of my worry with others, but you're not happy about it. Do you want me to ignore others and continue to focus on you and push you?"
Ling Jiao quickly surrendered after hearing this: "Okay, okay, I can't argue with you, do whatever you want, as long as you are happy."
