Chapter 151: Personal Bodyguard (2)
The important thing is that at this point, she just fell off the wall, and he just happened to come out to save the beauty heroically? Is there such a coincidence in the world?
"How can it be such a coincidence?" Josyan said with a smile as if he could see through her thoughts. "Qiao doesn't have any leisure to take a walk, I'm here to find the eldest lady."
"Oh, really?" Ye Mengmeng stared at him with a pair of wonderful eyes, and quipped, "I always thought that Master Qiao was good-looking and capable, but I didn't expect to be so honest?" Everyone is under the same sky, why are you so good? β
Qiao Siyan was stunned, and then laughed and said: "The eldest lady has won the award, this is just Qiao's responsibility, not excellent." β
"Duties?"
"Yes," Qiao Siyan put away his playful smile and said with a straight face, "Did the eldest lady forget?" The case the day before yesterday has not been solved, and the murderer is still at large. Qiao, as the governor of Jinzhou, didn't he take it as his mission to catch the murderer? It's just that I don't have a clue where the murderer is now, so I have to go to the scene of the crime to investigate on the spot, hoping to find some valuable clues. β
"I see." Ye Mengmeng nodded, looking him up and down, still a little skeptical. For some reason, she always felt that this guy didn't tell her the truth. But his words are reasonable, and he can't find any flaws.
Qiao Siyan smiled slightly, and changed the topic: "But what Qiao is curious about is, what is the eldest lady standing on the wall in broad daylight?" Do you practice light exercises? β
Ye Mengmeng's face turned slightly red, gave him a blank look, snorted, and said, "You can't care about this, let's judge your case well!" With that, he turned around and left.
"Miss, stay hereβ" Jos said hurriedly.
Ye Meng turned around cutely, frowned, and said, "Hey, Master Qiao, you decide your case, I'll do my business, our well water doesn't interfere with the river water, don't follow me, do you hear?" I hate it when people meddle with me. β
Qiao Siyan sighed and said, "Don't be angry, in fact, what Qiao wants to say is that the murderer has not been caught yet, and the eldest lady really shouldn't walk around alone at will, she should stay in the house honestly, otherwise ......"
Ye Mengmeng's body froze, her heart moved, and a few thoughts instantly turned in her mind. She coughed, turned around slowly, her pretty face had turned into a flower, very soft, and said with a smile: "Lord Qiao, are you very idle now?" β
"Me?" Josyan was stunned, this girl changed her face too quickly, and he was a little uncomfortable. "It's okay, now that I've finished the on-site investigation, I'm going to go back to the yamen."
"What are you doing back to the Yamen?" Ye Mengmeng lowered her voice, "I have a deal here, I don't know if Lord Qiao is interested?" β
"What deal?"
Ye Mengmeng smiled: "This deal is very simple for you, and it is not effortless at all. β
"Oh, what the hell is the deal? Miss, please speak, Qiao is very curious. Jos's eyes sparkled like stars.
"Actually, I want to hire Master Qiao to be my bodyguard to keep me safe."
"What?" Joss suspected that his ears had misheard. "Hire Joe to be your ...... Bodyguard? β
"Yes, Mistress Joe heard me right." Ye Mengmeng winked playfully.
Joss was angry and amused, squinting at her. "Hey, little girl, you really can open your mouth, do you know who Qiao is?"
"I know, Jinzhou Mansion Yin."
"Yo, do you still know that I am the Yin of Jinzhou Mansion?" Joss smiled, "Now that you know, you still dare to let the dignified Lord Yin deign to be your bodyguard?" β
"Well...... Ye Mengmeng stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Master Qiao, don't be so arrogant and uninhibited, you know, Miss Ben is now your master, isn't it the responsibility of the government to protect my safety?" β
Josyan snorted: "Last time, Lord Ben proposed to let my subordinates take charge of your safety, but the eldest lady seems to have personally refused, huh?" β
"Well, where are they?" Ye Mengmeng sighed, "Besides, I don't need to be guarded every day, only today's situation is special." Master Qiao, in this way, I will pay a high price, 1,000 taels of silver a day, and hire you to be my bodyguard today? How is it? β
"A thousand taels?" Qiao Siyan couldn't cry or laugh, "Miss, Qiao...... It's worth a thousand taels? β
"Where, where," Ye Meng smiled, "Lord Qiao's worth is naturally priceless, and this thousand taels is not as good as a speck of dust to Lord Qiao." However, in my eyes, this thousand taels is my entire belongings. I used all my belongings to hire Mr. Qiao, isn't this sincerity Mr. Qiao a little moved? β
"What a sharp mouth!" Qiao Siyan waved his fan lightly, his eyes stared at her, and his expression seemed to be smiling, "When the eldest lady said this, Qiao had to agree?" β
Ye Mengmeng smiled.
Qiao Siyan pondered for a moment, put away the jade fan, and said, "Since the eldest lady values Qiao so much, if Qiao doesn't agree, wouldn't he be ignorant?" It's just that what Qiao doesn't understand is why the eldest lady only hires today for one day, could it be that the eldest lady has something important to go out today? β
"You guessed it!" Ye Mengmeng gave a thumbs up approvingly, "It's really easy to talk to smart people." β
Qiao Siyan smiled slightly: "The eldest lady has won the award, but Qiao still doesn't understand, the eldest lady is not staying in the house, where are you going to go?" β
Ye Mengmeng said: "You don't care about this, just follow me." As he spoke, he took out a silver ticket from his purse and handed it to him, "Well, this is a thousand taels of silver tickets, you keep it." β
Qiao Siyan looked down at the silver ticket in her hand, her brows furrowed, and her heart was very entangled. This, or not?
"Don't hesitate, you don't want any money." Ye Mengmeng stuffed the silver ticket into the palm of his hand, patted him on the shoulder by the way, and said with a smile, "Okay, now that you have received my money, you are my bodyguard, but you must listen to me." I have a task for you right away. β
ββ¦β¦β
Joss couldn't help but laugh. One thousand taels, and that's how he ...... Sold yourself?
If someone knows about this, they can't laugh off their big teeth? He put down the silver ticket sullenly, and said lightly: "Okay, eldest lady, please command." β
"Well," Ye Mengmeng looked at him, very satisfied, now that she has bodyguards, what else is she afraid of?
She coughed and said, "Okay, now Miss Ben orders you to find a way to get a carriage at once." β
"Carriage? Where is the eldest lady going? β
"You don't have to worry about this, you just have to follow Miss Ben's orders. Aren't you my bodyguard? β
Qiao Siyan curled his lips and smiled, gently unfolded the folding fan, and said with a smile: "Okay, may I ask Miss, if you can't find a carriage, can the horse be replaced?" β
"Horses? Do you have horses? Ye Mengmeng glanced around, "Didn't you see it?" β
