Chapter 547: Hallucination?

Mother Chen’s workplace was a very profitable state-owned enterprise. She was even a middle-ranked leader who had more power. The treatment and salary were great. When compared to Chen Fei, he was a bit shabbier. He seemed to be the kind that lived off a woman, living in his wife’s house…

However, Yang Ming didn’t dare to say this. He just thought it.

Yang Ming wanted to visit Chen Mengyan’s room. However, it was his first time as a guest to visit their home. It wasn’t appropriate to stroll around freely, but it wasn’t hard for Yang Ming. Yang Ming directly scanned the entire home with his x-ray vision.

Apart from a study and a master bedroom, the remaining room should be Chen Mengyan’s room. Yang Ming looked inside. It had a very simple layout. There was a writing desk, a small bed and a shelf combined with bookshelf and wardrobe.

On the desk, there was the computer notebook that Yang Ming bought for her. The room was very clean and tidy. The curtains and sheets were cartoonish just like a typical girl’s bedroom.

After a while, there was a sound of a key inserted into the lock coming from the door. Yang Ming withdrew his gaze and glanced at the door. It turned out that Chen Fei was back.

“Uncle Chen!” Yang Ming stood up and quickly went to the door. He took the briefcase from Chen Fei.

“You kid, when did you have such keen eyesight?” Chen Fei smiled. “I didn’t see you respecting me so much before!”

“Isn’t it different now?” Yang Ming smiled and said, “We were friends originally despite the difference in age, and now you’re my father-in-law…”

“You’re funny!” Chen Fei patted Yang Ming’s head and said, “Where are Mengyan and her mother?”

“They are busy in the kitchen. I originally wanted to help, but there’s no use for me in there!” Yang Ming said innocently.

“Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth[2]!” Chen Fei smiled and said, “I was just looking for you. Come to the study with me.”

” Oh ?” Yang Ming was caught by surprise. Yang Ming didn’t expect Chen Fei to look for him for a chat just after entering the door. But, Yang Ming couldn’t refuse it, so he followed Chen Fei to the study. However, when he noticed Chen Fei’s stern face, Yang Ming suddenly became nervous.

This was the feeling that he had never encountered before. He used to be cool and collected when he was chatting with Chen Fei no matter if it was official business or private affairs. He could even still be half-joking, but now it was different. Chen Fei was his father-in-law. The identity was different from the previous one.

As they walked into the study, Chen Fei gestured for Yang Ming to sit on the sofa.

“Uncle Chen, sit down first.” Yang Ming said with a smile.

“Why I didn’t realize you were so polite before?” Chen Fei looked at Yang Ming as though he was smiling. “You should get seated. I’m sitting here.” As Chen Fei spoke, he sat on the boss’ chair behind the desk.

“Uncle Chen, why were you looking for me?” Yang Ming asked directly after sitting down. He didn’t like to beat around the bush. Since Chen Fei was looking for him, there must be something.

“Yang Ming, do you know Zhou Jiajia?” Chen Fei fixed his posture and suddenly asked.

” Ah ?” Yang Ming looked at Chen Fei with some surprise. “Zhou Jiajia… Uncle Chen, how do you know her?”

“I also know that she likes you, right?” Chen Fei didn’t answer but continued to ask.

“What?” Yang Ming was even more shocked this time. He is indeed worthy of being called a policeman. How does he even find out? However, what does Chen Fei mean by this? Could it be that he suspected something between Zhou Jiajia and me?

“Don’t be surprised. Answer me first. Is there such a thing?” Chen Fei found it amusing as he watched Yang Ming’s reaction.

” Ugh

… Uncle Chen, I have nothing to do with Zhou Jiajia. She is now Wang Zhitao’s girlfriend…” Yang Ming explained quickly.

“I know all of this.” Chen Fei smiled. “What are you nervous about?”

“Of course, I’m nervous. If you ask me such things, how can I be calm?” Yang Ming said with some annoyance, “Uncle Chen, do you want to terrify me?”

“Yang Ming, do you know why Zhou Jiajia is the girlfriend of Wang Zhitao?” asked Chen Fei.

“Why?” Yang Ming asked casually, but then he felt something wrong. Hence, he uttered, “Uncle Chen, why do you keep mentioning her?”

Chen Fei paused for a moment of silence before he continued, “Yang Ming, there are some things that I have to say to you, but you must keep it secret. You can’t say it out loud.”

“Uncle Chen, what are you talking about?” Yang Ming had some doubts. “What is the matter that it needs to be confidential?”

“It’s something about Wang Zhitao and his father!” Chen Fei said seriously, “Our police are now monitoring the Wang father and son. I hope you can cooperate!”

Seeing Chen Fei’s expression, Yang Ming couldn’t help but be a bit more serious. He quickly said, “Uncle Chen, rest assured. Don’t you feel at ease with me? I won’t talk about it.”

“Zhou Jiajia is now carrying out a secret mission. I have heard about the grudges between you and her. I also understand your grudges with Wang Zhitao. But, I hope you won’t have a direct conflict with them during this period of time so that it won’t undermine Zhou Jiajia’s plan and anger the Wang father and son. It might force them to behave like a cornered beast who will do something out of desperation.” Chen Fei instructed.

Yang Ming secretly sneered. Behave like a cornered beast who will do something out of desperation? Whatever, I’m afraid that it doesn’t amount to anything no matter how many dogs there are!

“Uncle Chen, are you going to get rid of Wang Xifan?” Yang Ming’s tone carried a little bit of excitement. For a long time, Yang Ming had been waiting for the opportunity to destroy the Wang father and son in one swoop, but there were no suitable opportunities.

The Wang father and son were not like those of the underworld. To deal with underworld people, he could use extreme means. But, Wang’s father and son were different. After all, Wang Xifan’s identity was there. If I really want to deal with Wang Xifan, it’s a very troublesome thing.

So, when Yang Ming knew from Song Hang that Wang Xifan was smuggling, he was immediately delighted. He directly told him to collect some criminal evidence and audio recordings against Wang Xifan. But now Wang Xifan had kept a low profile even more. Although he had mentioned the matter about smuggling to Song Hang, there wasn’t any concrete action. Yang Ming now only had a few audio recordings of Wang Xifan’s plan, but there was no other substantive evidence.

“It involved a lot of things, so don’t ask too much.” Chen Fei shook his head and said.

“I don’t know what Uncle Chen is investigating, but I think you can start with smuggling.” Yang Ming hesitated and decided to confess to Chen Fei.

” Oh ?” Chen Fei listened to Yang Ming’s words, and his eyes were wide open. “How did you get to know about this?”

It was normal that Chen Fei would be surprised. Only a few people in the Criminal Investigation Team knew that Wang Xifan was suspected of smuggling. It wasn’t publicly released! Yang Ming actually knew about it! How could this not make Chen Fei feel amazed! If there’s a traitor in my team…Thinking of this, Chen Fei had beads of sweat dripping down his head!

” Hehe , I have a… consider him a friend, a regional president of a foreign-invested trading company. He has the exemption privilege to import and export sophisticated instruments. Wang Xifan wants to cooperate with him.” Yang Ming continued, “I also have several audio recordings of Wang Xifan’s conversation here.”

“Really!” Chen Fei perked up after the big surprise. “Great, who’s your friend? Can you arrange for us to meet up?”

“Of course, that’s not a problem. I wanted to hand over the audio recordings since the beginning.” Yang Ming said to himself. It seems that Chen Fei was also investigating the same thing. It seems that Wang Xifan would be done for really fast.

“Well, since you knew part of the story, then I won’t hide it from you. The reason I have been monitoring Wang Xifan is indeed his suspicion in smuggling. But we have no definite evidence.” Chen Fei said, “All the clues are pointing to a person named Su Dazhi, who is the little brother of Wang Xifan’s wife, but he just vanished from the face of the earth. We can’t find him.”

“Su Dazhi…” Yang Ming shook his head. He had never heard of this person. “Have you looked into a person named Huang Youcai around Wang Xifan?”

” En , he is also within our surveillance, but he is only a secretary of Wang Xifan. He doesn’t seem to know many things.” Chen Fei said.

Yang Ming nodded and said nothing, but he still felt Su Dazhi’s sudden disappearance was a little weird. Yang Ming couldn’t help but close his eyes.

Weird things happened again! Suddenly, a scene appeared in front of Yang Ming like a movie!

In the first scene: Wang Xifan drove a car bringing Huang Youcai and rushing wildly on the road. It wasn’t the Mercedes-Benz that Wang Xifan often drove, but a Hongqi[1] with a very old appearance.

In the second scene: Wang Xifan put a man that Yang Ming didn’t recognize in the back of the car. It seemed the man had already fainted.

In the third scene, Wang Xifan was in an abandoned construction site. He was filling soil into the pit of a building’s foundation with a shovel! Inside the pit, it was the man who he didn’t know. But, at the moment, his chest was covered with blood. He was apparently dead.

These three incoherent scenes quickly flashed through Yang Ming’s mind, making him feel overwhelmed!
