Chapter 197: Chapter 197 Disappearance

Over the next two days, Shen Ci and Meng Chuyue didn’t go anywhere, just stayed at home exchanging sweet nothings, enjoying delicious food, and envisioning the future.

They had a very pleasant time.

On the evening of the third day, Mi Hang’s father, Mi Zhengguo, came rushing over in a panic.

With an anxious expression, Mi Zhengguo blurted out, "Chuyue, I... Chuyue, Mi Hang is missing."

Meng Chuyue kept her word and visited Mi Hang at his school every once in a while, bringing him space fruit and snacks.

Although she had not been to the Mi Family’s home, the fruit she brought was also meant for Mi Zhengguo and Qin Silan, so Mi Zhengguo always knew about Meng Chuyue’s whereabouts and often took his wife and son to Meng Chuyue’s house to buy fruit.

Mi Hang missing?

A jolt went through Meng Chuyue’s heart, "What happened?"

In his previous life, Mi Hang had suffered a bit, but after being adopted by Han Zheng, he had a good life.

But now, due to her involvement, his fate might be miserable.

That would be too terrible.

With a pale complexion, Mi Zhengguo, a usually calm man, trembled as he spoke, "He... he was playing at his grandmother’s house these past few days, and he wasn’t there this morning. His grandmother thought he had gone back to our home on his own. Our homes aren’t far apart, and he often goes back and forth by himself, so no one on that end paid much mind. We only found out when we discussed it on the phone a while ago... I originally came to see if he was here with you, but now... where on earth could he have gone? What should we do?"

Although Mi Hang grew up in a rural area, he was very well-behaved and cute, and he learned quickly. Both the Mi and Qin families liked him very much.

Meng Chuyue, with furrowed brows, instructed Erhu, who was in the space, "You’ve seen Mi Hang, go help look for him."

After Erhu agreed, Meng Chuyue said to Mi Zhengguo, "Don’t panic just yet, let’s go out and help look for him right now. Uncle Mi, do you have any suspects in mind?"

She did have one.

She suspected the person who took Mi Hang was Fu Peng.

In his previous life, Fu Peng was beaten to death in winter, but now he was still alive, and if he saw Mi Hang, he would certainly kidnap him.

After thinking for a while, Mi Zhengguo said, "We don’t have any enemies with a particular grudge... I really can’t think of anyone."

Meng Chuyue nodded, "I have some suspicions about Fu Peng. Uncle Mi, how did you deal with him before?"

"I set him up to lose a lot of money. Then, I had someone force him to sell his house and land under the pretext of debt collection, and I gave him a beating as well. However, the timing wasn’t right that day, and just as we hadn’t hit him enough, a few police officers showed up, and we had to let him off cheaply. Are you saying he figured out it was me who was after him, and he’s come for revenge?"

Meng Chuyue shook her head, "It’s more likely that he happened upon little Hang and wants to use him for ransom. I’ll go ask the people from our village who work in Hai City to see if they’ve seen Fu Peng these past few days. As for you, go look elsewhere for now."

Mi Zhengguo nodded and hurriedly left.

By this time, Shen Ci had already called many friends and subordinates to help search for Mi Hang.

After Mi Zhengguo left, the two of them drove to a nearby leather shoe factory.

The leather shoe factory was owned by Shen Ci, and it employed many workers from Wuliu Town, and although none were from Xiaoliu Village, Fu Peng was somewhat of a notorious figure and many people in Wuliu Town knew him.

Sure enough, as soon as Shen Ci started asking around in the shoe factory dormitory, several workers from Wuliu Town mentioned they had seen Fu Peng the day before yesterday and yesterday.

"He even said he wanted to work at the shoe factory. We didn’t want this bad apple joining us, so we lied to him, saying we weren’t hiring for the time being."

"Exactly, we just want to stay as far away as possible from that sort of rotten person, or else he’d steal all the money we make."

...

After talking for a while, they remembered to ask Shen Ci why he was inquiring about Fu Peng, but unfortunately, Shen Ci had already left.

While asking around, Meng Chuyue did not go in because Fu Peng’s reputation was terrible, and inquiring about him herself could lead to endless trouble.
