The Road to Becoming a Son-in-Law

Chapter 230 Persuading Li Da

Chapter 230 Persuading Li Dayi

He Fei felt good about this too. Yes, besides this, it would be better to find some more people to try it out.

Considering her recent fondness for food, why not let her go by herself? After all, she herself had tasted quite a few delicacies. So she said to Yuwen Chengdu, "I'll go there in a few days. Leave me the address."

A few days later, He Fei thought of the shop she wanted to open, so she dragged Chen Feng along to the shop.

She and Chen Feng arrived at this dilapidated alley. The restaurant was closed. Was no one open for business? But that didn't make sense; it was only four in the afternoon. Why was it closed? Most restaurants wouldn't be like this.

“Since he’s closed, there’s nothing we can do. Let’s go back.” Chen Feng was also puzzled to see the shop closed. “Call the person who went to find a chef for you last time over. Let’s ask him again if he has any left. Tell us.”

He Fei sent someone to find Yuwen Chengdu.

“The shop we went to today was closed. So we weren’t able to try their food. So tell me what else is special about that place.”

“Oh, right, Miss, I almost forgot. The rules at that shop are really weird. Last time I ate there, they told me to leave and then closed the door.” Yuwen Chengdu suddenly remembered and slapped his forehead. “And there’s a big black dog outside their door. It’s really strange; it just keeps lying there. And Wang Dayi is weird too; he actually gave the dog the same fried rice as me. You know how expensive that fried rice is.” Yuwen Chengdu continued, seemingly quite indignant.

"Why didn't you say so sooner? It seems we need to send more people to keep an eye on things. Have someone keep an eye on it and see what time it closes and opens. Then we can go over when we find an opportunity."

"Yes, Miss." After several days of guard duty, He Fei finally discovered when Li Dayi's shop had opened. So, He Fei and Chen Feng went to Li Dayi's shop again today. Indeed, Li Dayi's shop was now open.

They arrived at the entrance of the alley and saw a large black dog standing there. When the dog saw He Fei and Chen Feng, it immediately became wary.

It's probably because He Fei and Chen Feng are both martial artists that, in this era, possessing martial arts skills like Chen Feng's is not something that ordinary people can achieve.

Therefore, it was a little scared when it saw Chen Feng and He Fei. After all, it was not a special dog, so it could sense that something was wrong. It was lying lazily on the ground, but it stood up the moment it saw He Fei and Chen Feng. After all, the innkeeper fed it, so it couldn't ignore it.

Also, the innkeeper's cooking is quite good.

"This is the dog Yuwen Chengdu was talking about." He Fei saw the big black dog stand up and seemed somewhat hostile towards them.

"Probably, but this dog is unusual." Chen Feng felt that the dog could sense his strength, so he was a little worried.

"Boss, is anyone here? Is anyone here?" He Fei asked from the doorway when she saw that there was no one in the store.

"Woof woof woof," the big black dog stood up and barked at He Fei.

"What do you want to do? Go and call your master out." Chen Feng pulled He Fei behind him.

"Woof," the big black dog wanted to bark again, but when it saw Chen Feng blocking the woman's way, it immediately chickened out. It ran inside and called for Li Dayi.

"It's afraid of you, haha, this dog is such a coward." He Fei found it quite amusing to see the big black dog trotting inside. It had barked at her like that just moments before, but the moment Chen Feng came out, it instantly became timid. This big black dog even knew how to read people's expressions, just like a human.

The big black dog ran inside into the kitchen.

"How did you get in here? Are you hungry?" Li Dayi asked in surprise. The big black dog wagged its tail and barked at Li Dayi a few times, then pulled him out.

"If you're not hungry, then what are you doing here?" Li Dayi felt strange. This big black dog had never been into his kitchen before, so he was very puzzled by its behavior today. But despite his confusion, he still followed the big black dog out.

"Excuse me, are you the owner here?" Chen Feng stepped forward and asked.

Seeing Chen Feng's dashing and handsome appearance, Li Dayi stepped forward and asked, "Yes, it is I. May I ask who you are?"

“A few days ago, a man came to your restaurant. His name is Yuwen Chengdu. Do you know him?” Chen Feng asked Li Dayi, noticing that he didn’t know why they had come.

"I know, so it seems that the young lady behind you is his master?" When Li Dayi saw Chen Feng say this, he instantly understood that the pretty boy was Yuwen Chengdu, the one who came to eat fried rice last time.

Didn't I reject him last time? Why is he doing this again?

“Yes, I am the lady from that person last time. I hope Yuwen Cheng did not offend the boss last time.” He Fei stepped forward and bowed slightly to the boss.

"So, Miss, you've come here this time hoping I can be your chef?" Li Da pointed out He Fei's purpose.

"Yes." He Fei didn't hide anything, after all, that was her purpose in coming here.

"Didn't I tell Yuwen Chengdu last time that I didn't want to be your chef? Why did you come back?" Li Dayi was speechless. He had already said that, so why did he come back?

"Boss, I doubt anyone comes to your shop now. Why waste your excellent cooking skills? Why not do something big with me? I guarantee it will be better than your little alley." He Fei wanted to persuade him, after all, his skills shouldn't be wasted.

“If you’re here for dinner, I can agree. But if you’re here to ask me to be your chef, then forget it.” Li Dayi didn’t take He Fei’s words to heart.

"Okay, then give us one serving of everything from your restaurant, the ones on your menu." He Fei wanted to say something more, but Chen Feng saw that Li Dayi had made up his mind, so he ordered the food.

"Okay, just wait." Li Dayi said and immediately went to the kitchen to cook. This was a big deal, not bad at all.

"Here it is, please enjoy." Li Dayi finished cooking in no time. "But my food isn't cheap, as you probably know. So please pay after you finish eating."

The dishes were beautifully presented and delicious, and their appetites were whetted as soon as they were served. Before long, the entire table of food was devoured.

"Boss, is there really no room for negotiation?" He Fei was very unhappy.

"I do have one, but it's a bit difficult." Li Dayi wanted to dissuade He Fei and the others. After thinking for a moment, he offered one. "My father died at the hands of a dragon last year. If you avenge him, I'll agree."
