"Song Cheng, I don't want to waste my breath on you, and I have no interest in spending time with your wife. Tell me your wife's address right now."
Thinking about Chen Shubin's reaction earlier, Song Mian had a feeling that the beggar ghost was going to cause trouble for Qian Xingyue.
Although she and Qian Xingyue had never interacted, objectively speaking, Qian Xingyue had not caused her any real harm, so she didn't really want Qian Xingyue to be scared into seeing ghosts!
Song Mian was initially worried that Song Cheng would not reveal the address because he was concerned about Qian Xingyue.
To Song Mian's surprise, Qian Xingyue was actually living at the company, having not been home for several days due to her busy work schedule.
"Song Mian, I've handed this matter over to my wife. If you have any questions, go talk to her. Don't bother me!" Song Cheng said before hanging up the phone.
It's truly baffling that he leaves everything to his wife while he indulges in pleasure.
However, Song Mian couldn't worry about that now and rushed to Qian Xingyue's company.
Meanwhile, Qian Xingyue was resting on a bed in the company's break room.
Feeling thirsty in her sleep, Qian Xingyue was awakened by a cell phone ringing.
After turning on her phone, Qian Xingyue saw a text message from Song Heng. She wasn't surprised to see that Song Mian was coming to see her.
Having prepared herself for facing Song Mian, Qian Xingyue lay on the bed intending to continue resting, but for some reason, she suddenly felt a chill in the air.
Curled up and trembling slightly, Qian Xingyue couldn't bear the inexplicable chill any longer and immediately sat up in bed.
As Qian Xingyue got out of bed and bent down to put on her shoes, she saw a man's ghostly face peeking out from under the bed.
Chen Shubin appeared directly in front of her like that.
Chen Shubin smiled slightly: "Xingyue'er, good evening."
Just as Song Mian arrived at Qian Xingyue's house, she heard a deafening scream coming from inside.
Immediately afterwards, the door to Qian Xingyue's house was pushed open from the inside, and Qian Xingyue ran out barefoot.
"A ghost! A ghost! Help me, I've seen a ghost!" Qian Xingyue was so frightened that she almost burst into tears.
Song Mian watched as Chen Shubin slowly floated out behind Qian Xingyue, a look of dissatisfaction rising in her eyes: "How can you be so unreasonable, you beggar? I didn't ask you to help me scare people, so who gave you the right to make decisions on your own?"
Hearing this, Chen Shubin looked disgusted and huffed at Song Mian, "They were trying to help you out of kindness, and you not only didn't appreciate it, but you even yelled at them. How can someone be so unreasonable?"
"Stop talking nonsense. I told you not to hurt innocent people, so don't hurt innocent people." Song Mian was already annoyed by Chen Shubin, and seeing him float over, her dissatisfaction increased even more.
Qian Xingyue, on the other hand, was completely stunned by the sight of the human and the ghost before her, muttering incoherently, "You, you actually know each other? My God, you actually know each other!"
Qian Xingyue kept muttering to herself, clearly unable to accept this fact for the time being!
"Hmph, Boss Song Mian doesn't just know me, he knows many, many other ghosts! You better remember this, our family is not to be trifled with. If you don't want to die, don't mess with the little boss again, or we'll definitely make you regret it!" Chen Shubin said, immediately putting on a fierce look at Qian Xingyue.
Qian Xingyue trembled with fear, glancing at Chen Shubin and then at Song Mian.
Almost without any further reaction time, Qian Xingyue let out a muffled groan and fainted.
"Miss Qian!" Song Mian immediately helped Qian Xingyue up and pinched her philtrum.
Fortunately, Qian Xingyue only fainted and nothing else serious happened.
Even so, Song Mian was still furious. Pointing at Chen Shubin's nose, she launched into a tirade: "Why did you jump out like that? I heard Jiao Jiao say that you low-level ghosts can only be seen by people who can't normally see ghosts if you choose to. You deliberately let Miss Qian see you, which is why she was so frightened!"
Primary ghosts are more powerful than lower-level ghosts, and can make a specific living person see the ghost about once every ten years or so.
However, these novice ghosts usually choose to see their past family members.
Moreover, these novice ghosts are afraid of frightening their families, so they often choose not to let their families see them and simply stay by their side silently.
In short, no ghost would randomly jump in front of other living people to make its presence known.
"Wasn't I doing this for you?" Chen Shubin said to Song Mian with a matter-of-fact expression, "If I wasn't trying to stand up for you and help you, would I have done this? I think you're really biting the hand that feeds you, you don't appreciate kindness, it really chills my heart!"
Song Mian's expression remained serious. She completely disagreed with Chen Shubin's words: "I have never asked you for anything like this. In the beginning, you were the one who came here to freeload, and now you still have the nerve to spout nonsense in front of me. You have truly opened my eyes."
When Chen Shubin heard Song Mian say this, he was almost furious: "Fine, fine, I guess I was being nosy. I'm not going to bother with you anymore. Do whatever you want!"
Seeing that Chen Shubin left after saying those words, Song Mian didn't want to pay any attention to him and escorted Qian Xingyue into her room.
After taking care of Qian Xingyue for one night, Song Mian waited until the next day before leaving.
Upon arriving at the pawnshop, Song Mian explained her purpose to the clerk.
However, the answer I got from the shop assistant was unexpected.
"You're saying the antique necklace I wanted was bought?" Seeing the shop assistant nod, Song Mian looked utterly bewildered. "When did they buy it? Do you have their contact information?"
The shop assistant was very friendly and said gently to Song Mian, "The gentleman behind you is the one who bought that antique necklace."
Song Mian immediately turned around to look behind her, only to unexpectedly meet a pair of eyes full of smiles.
"Qi Yefeng, what are you doing here?" The serious look in Song Mian's eyes vanished completely, and she quickly came to stand beside Qi Yefeng.
Qi Yefeng looked at Song Mian with gentle eyes and said slowly, "I've been waiting for you here all this time. Last night, Ancestor Lin came to me in a dream and said that you were in trouble, so I rushed over this morning to help."
"Here you go, this is the antique necklace you wanted."
Qi Yefeng reached out and handed the box containing the antique necklace to Song Mian.
