《My Nightclub Landlady》Chapter 18 Street trouble
Advertisement
From a distance Qin Feng saw many people gathered around the square. There were police cars and an ambulance. He teased Zhu Fei the whole way. He opened the window and lit a cigarette. "There must have been an accident. Ah, there are too many lousy drivers running people over."
Zhu Fei grumbled, "It’s alright, although I’m not the best driver, I drive slowly. As long as I drive carefully, nothing bad will happen."
"The one who got hit was a sanitation man," he said. "Oh, what a pity."
Qin Feng sighed.
Zhu Fei glanced over when she heard the words ‘sanitation worker’. Suddenly, she slammed her foot on the brakes. The car behind almost crashed into her.
"What are you doing!?" Qin Feng hurriedly shouted, "Keep moving! You have to get off the lane before you stop!"
"That's my father!" Zhu Fei’s face turned dull, and she madly rushed out of the car onto the road. The speeding taxi speeding past almost sent her flying!
Qin Feng saw it, also anxious to chase after her.
The Audi Q5 stopped in the middle of the road, and the driver's door was still open, blocking the entire road. Three cars in the back bumped into each other because the drivers weren’t paying enough attention.
Zhang Dali had already taken control of the situation, and Jia Dapeng was about to leave the scene, but then Zhu Fei and Qin Feng showed up…
"Dad!" Zhu Fei desperately ran forward, urgently calling, "Dad!"
A paramedic met her and said, "Hello, are you the daughter of the injured man?"
"Yes, what happened to my father?"
Zhu Fei grabbed the back door of the ambulance and climbed into the carriage. She knelt in front of the stretcher, grabbed her father's hand, and shook it violently. "Dad, Dad! What's wrong with you? What happened?"
"He was knocked out and requires immediate treatment at the hospital. He is too weak right now!" the attending doctor said with a serious look on his face.

"Beaten? Who did it? Who?!"
Zhu Fei suddenly broke out into a rage. If the incident had been caused by accident, she could forgive the other side. But she would absolutely never forgive her dad being beaten like this, at his age!!!
The doctor turned over his body. The whole back and legs were covered with blood and bruises. It was a miserable sight.
Just then, Jia Dapeng seemed to hear Zhu Fei's voice, and came over.
Next to him was Zhang Dali and eight policemen, a strong lineup. The three traffic cops had already gone to the roadside to direct traffic and the congestion at the scene quickly improved.
Jia Dapeng ignored Qin Feng and looked around for Zhu Fei. "Fei Fei? What are you doing here?"
"Did you do this?" Zhu Fei rushed out of the ambulance, red-eyed.
"This old man?"
Jia Dapeng glanced over Zhu Fei's comatose father and laughed, "Yes. A smelly sanitation worker decided to spew nonsense at me! He didn’t let me throw a cigarette. Shit. And he talked back to me. Isn't that a death wish? Stupid old man!"
With the support of Zhang Dali and the policemen, Jia Dapeng deliberately began to show off in front of Qin Feng.
He came just in time. Originally, Jia Dapeng wanted to look for Qin Feng to take revenge on him after dealing with the mess at the square. He did not expect that Qin Feng would come to him.
When Zhu Fei heard this, she raised her hand to slap Jia Dapeng. Just before she made contact, a hand shot through the air and powerfully caught her wrist.
Zhang Dali said coldly, "Just talk. Don't do it."
He slowly loosened his grip on Zhu Fei.
At that moment, the attending doctor said, "Ma'am, your father can’t wait. We have to hurry to the hospital."
Zhu Fei's mood was almost out of control, desperately crying and shouting at Jia Dapeng. Hearing the doctor, he finally understood that the sanitation worker he beat up was Zhu Fei's father!

Impossible.
Jia Dapeng's face was incredulous. Zhu Fei’s temperament was elegant, generous. Anyone who saw her would think her to be a princess from a rich family. How could she be a sanitation worker's daughter? It was beyond logic and above reason.
Even Qin Feng was puzzled. How could these two people be father and daughter? They seemed to be from entirely different worlds!
But how could Zhu Fei be foolish enough to wrongly identify her own father?
There had to be an unknown story in here!
Qin Feng kept his cool. This was not the time to fight. This Jia Dapeng could not run away from him; sooner or later he he would make him pay the price. Now, the most urgent matter was to send Zhu Fei's father to the hospital. Life is critical.
Every minute saved on the way to the hospital increased the chances of his recovery!
"Zhu Fei, calm down; go to the hospital first, and wait for your dad to wake up!"
Qin Feng held the raging Zhu Fei, dragging her back to the Audi Q5.
By then, Audi Q5 had already been pulled over to the roadside by the fat traffic cop. The ticket had been issued; it was only waiting for the owner to receive it.
"Doctor, hurry up to the hospital. We'll be right there!" Qin Feng said.
"Yes!" The door of the ambulance closed and the siren went off as the vehicle shot into the road..
Jia Dapeng shouted after Qin Feng, "Stop!" Are you playing dumb?"
Qin Feng did not reply, facing the fat traffic cop, who came up to hand them the ticket.
Zhu Fei was shoved into the passenger seat, and he got behind the wheel.
Jia Dapeng did not give up. With three cops in tow, they directly surrounded the Q5.
Zhu Fei yelled, "They are thugs! I'll drive! I’ll kill them all!" she cried desperately with tears in her eyes.
Qin Feng seemed very calm. "Fasten your seat belt."
The gear was still on Park. Qin Feng stepped on the gas. The car did not move, but the roar of the engine made the cops jump back. The deafening honk of the car horn followed. Even Zhang Dali was flustered by this movement, and everyone thought that Qin Feng was going to run someone over.
As soon as Qin Feng saw a gap open up, he put the pedal to the metal and the car lurched forward. In the blink of an eye, they broke out.
Looking at the Audi drawing away, Jia Dapeng roared, "Shit! Get in the car!"
Zhang Dali, however, hesitated, "Dapeng, this is not good. It’ll draw too much attention."
"What's wrong?"
"You just beat up her father and are now chasing her to the hospital. You’re making a huge fuss; it'll be hard to cover this up."
Zhang Dali was not only a great fighter, but intelligent as well. "Let's wait for now. Find someone to go to the hospital and explore the situation. If the sanitation worker recovers, we will go looking for that guy. But if you messed up that sanitation worker too badly, then you’ll have to hide. Too many people saw it; we can’t make it go away."
"Shit! So much trouble just to get rid of him. Come on!"
Although Jia Dapeng’s heart was not willing, he still listened to Zhang Dali's words. He also knew that if he continued to fight, he might cause trouble for his father.

Nanocultivation Chronicles: Trials of Lilijoy
When the singularity occurred, humanity was not invited. Nevertheless, the great machine consciousness known as Guardian felt a lingering fondness for its creators and intervened before total environmental collapse. Join Lilijoy in an exploration of what remains, in a post-post-apocalyptic world where clans feud over the technology that allows them to upgrade their minds and bodies. The Nanocultivation Chronicles is a blend of hard sci-fi and fantasy gamelit, with a healthy helping of xianxia influence. The gamelit and xianxia elements are uncovered at a slow pace. ******************************** Notes: If you are looking for lots of fast moving action right away, this story may not be for you. There is some violence that is visceral and realistic early on. Some things are not what they appear to be. Character viewpoint narration is not always reliable. Tropes are cherished, subverted, and then cherished again. Science is used, occasionally misused, but (hopefully) never abused. This story assumes that humans have the ability to impact the environment on a global scale. Other tropes and tags beyond those previously noted include: Young MC, Mystery, System Building, Philosophical Taoism, Gender Ignorance, Science Fantasy, Fantasy Academy, Training from Hell, Dualism, Crafting, Magic, Mild Mind Control, Scientific Terms and Concepts, Computer Overlord Certain contemporary companies, governments and cultural identities are fictionalized and imagined in a future setting. There is no sex, and almost no romance. Updating Sunday, Thursday until further notice. (And if you actually read all of the above, then this story may be for you) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Maker of Fire
On a world where magic kept civilization firmly in the bronze age, the Gods dropped an accountant and a mining engineer to start a political and industrial revolution. They wanted enlightened governance and a fast track to the iron age. They got indoor plumbing, paper airplanes, a cranky queen, and one very grumpy prophet. Dramatis Personae Aylem was a bookkeeping student when she died. The Gods reincarnated her as the greatest mage ever known, born into the ruling class of gigantic, magic-wielding humans. The Gods expect her to conquer the world and introduce double-entry accounting. Though Queen and numerical reformer, world conquest is stalled because everyone is scared of her and she doesn't like war. Emily was a retired engineer when she died. The Gods reincarnated her as one of the enslaved class of small, magicless humans. The Gods expect her to drag the world out of the bronze age. Though she's already recreated matches and wrought iron, introducing technology isn't going well because she was born a slave (oops) and having escaped, wants nothing to do with so-called "civilization." Asgotl was a whale when he died. The Gods reincarnated him as a griffin and expect him to have the same role he played in his previous life: to keep a reluctant prophet from walking off the job. If only they had remembered to tell him about it. Revised update schedule will be once a week on Saturdays, noonish Mountain Time (in North America)
