Chapter Twelve: The Son-in-law

  I was stunned, and Huang Peng walked out from inside.

  "Chen Yang! You've finally arrived!"

  He had a smile on his face.

  There is a special meaning.

  I don't understand what they mean.

  At that time in school, apart from An Hong's affairs, I didn't have much intersection with him.

  "Has Old Feng transferred the chicken soup shop to you?" I asked.

  After the poisoning incident, I was sued by the other party and a series of compensations made me lose several hundred thousand.

  The chicken soup shop is now under the Huang brand, how did it change from Feng's?

  There is only one possibility, and that is Old Feng has transferred ownership of the store to Huang Peng.

  "Don't stand outside, come in and talk."

  Huang Peng let me in and after I sat down, the first sentence he said made me very surprised: "I am Mr. Feng's son-in-law."

  "What?"

  I was taken aback, he sighed and looked very distressed. "When my father-in-law had an accident, I was abroad. I just received the news recently and rushed back from abroad."

  After finishing speaking, he took out a small red booklet from his pocket and handed it over to me. "This is my marriage certificate. You can take a look."

  I opened it and took a look.

  Not bad, it's indeed a marriage certificate.

  The man is him.

  She is called Feng Xiaoye. She looks very much like Boss Feng.

  Although I felt surprised, I still found it strange.

  Why did he introduce himself as Mr. Feng's son-in-law?

  What does it have to do with me?

  "You should know why I'm looking for you." Huang Peng put away the marriage certificate and said in a strange tone.

  "I don't know." I shook my head.

  "We're all sensible people, so let's just get straight to the point. I know my father-in-law gave you the secret recipe, and I hope you can return it to me."

  It suddenly dawned on me.

  It turned out that this guy was looking for me for the secret recipe.

  I replied succinctly, "Boss Feng indeed gave me the secret formula, but he specifically entrusted me that I must not reveal the secret formula to anyone else."

  Huang Peng Sen smiled and said, "Do I belong to someone else?"

  "I am Mr. Feng's son-in-law, I'm one of us, not an outsider."

  "So, you should certainly tell me the secret recipe."

  I said: "I just don't understand. You can go directly to your father-in-law for the secret recipe, why come find me?"

  I am telling the truth.

  Mr. Feng can't speak now, but his mind is still clear.

  The prescription can be written on paper with a pen.

  "My father-in-law is missing."

  "What?" I exclaimed in surprise, "How could he have gone missing? Just a few days ago I went to see him."

  From what I know, Boss Feng has always lived in a bungalow in a nearby rural village.

  After being discharged from hospital for cerebral hemorrhage, he didn't go anywhere else to live and still lived in that bungalow.

  I've been to that bungalow, it's in a very remote area and there isn't any special furniture.

  Apart from a bed for sleeping and some simple furniture, there is nothing else of particular value.

  No wife either.

  At that time I still felt strange.

  I remember asking Boss Feng once, "Where is your wife and children?"

  The other party did not respond.

  I felt that the other party might have had something difficult to say, so I never asked again.

  "I also find it strange that he went missing. After I returned from abroad, I only met my father-in-law once, and when I went to see him for the second time, he mysteriously disappeared..."

  As he said this, his eyes took on a strange look. "My father-in-law's most trusted person is you, so you must know where he went. Am I wrong?"

  "Don't talk nonsense. I really haven't seen Boss Feng."

  "This is unimportant, what's important is the secret formula." Huang Peng lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and then threw half of it to the ground. "As long as you tell me the secret formula, you'll be free."

  My eyebrows furrowed instantly, "What do you mean by saying this?"

  "You're an intelligent person, you should understand what I mean."

  "I have good reason to believe you're hiding my father-in-law."

  "The purpose of your actions is very simple, you want to monopolize the secret formula by yourself."

  "If you don't tell me the secret recipe, I'll report you to the police."

  I think it's funny, "Then go ahead and sue me, what evidence do you have to sue me?"

  "Don't speak so lightly. Everyone knows my father-in-law was good to you, now he's suddenly gone missing, can you shirk responsibility? To put it seriously, you've harmed my father-in-law."

  My face suddenly turned red, "You're speaking nonsense!"

  "Look at you, I just said that and you got anxious. With a temper like yours, how can you be my opponent?"

  Looking at his triumphant appearance, I thought of that Douyin video.

  Last night I analyzed it and maybe the video isn't synthesized.

  It's very likely that this guy had an affair with my newlywed wife.

  Suddenly, my anger surged up.

  I sprang up suddenly, grabbed the other person's collar and said fiercely: "Speak! What is your relationship with Zou Miao Miao?"

  The other party didn't expect me to be so rude all of a sudden. At first, they were startled, then looked confused and asked, "Who is Zou Miao Miao?"

  The other person's expression doesn't seem fake.

  I can see it.

  This guy really doesn't know Zou Miao Miao.

  That's strange!

  My wife personally told me that Huang Peng had pursued her before, and even until the day of our marriage, he still wouldn't give up on her.

  After seeing the screenshot of Douyin video, Miao Miao also angrily said that the other party was perverted and so on.

  But now.

  This guy actually said he doesn't know my wife?!

  What's going on here?

  Just as I was stunned, the other party's attitude suddenly became friendly. "I know you're short of money now, and I'm a person who values loyalty. As long as you give me the secret formula, I can give you 2 million."

  "I can't promise you that." I calmed down, "Let's find Boss Feng first. This is the top priority."

  "The most urgent thing is to tell me the secret recipe first." Huang Peng pointed at the sign of Huang's Chicken Soup Shop, "You see, the chicken soup shop is about to open, and what we need most now is the secret recipe."

  "You're really a good son-in-law."

  I didn't bother talking to him anymore and just turned around and left.

  A voice came from behind, "The secret recipe is mine, you'll have to give it to me sooner or later!"

  I didn't look back and walked out for a long distance in one breath.

  As I walked, I cursed in my heart.

  This guy is too damn annoying.

  My father-in-law has gone missing, but instead of being anxious to find him, I'm worried about his eccentricities.

  Such a good son-in-law is hard to come by.

  I took a taxi and went straight to my father-in-law's place.

  Forty minutes later, I arrived at a rural village in the suburbs. After seven turns and eight bends, I finally found the bungalow where Mr. Feng used to live.

  To be honest, it's really hard to find this place.

  The village in this suburb is already very remote, and the bungalow where Mr. Feng lives is short and small, completely unremarkable.

  I found it strange when I first knew Mr. Feng lived in this place.

  The chicken soup shop is doing very well and Mr. Feng has plenty of money.

  How can you live in such a shabby place?
