《My Nightclub Landlady》Chapter 20 An Unlikely Relation
Advertisement
Even if Ji Dongchen's personal behavior was inappropriate, if Jia Quan could smell the wind of opportunity, he would certainly take advantage of it!
"Ru Ru, if you have anything to say, don't be a coward. Don't mess with me in front of Brother Jun."
Although Xiao Jinhua was in the process of being trained for higher management, in the face of Ru Ru, she had never been soft. She simply did not like people who only knew how to make money in bed.
"You... How dare you be so arrogant? Can’t you see you just put yourself in danger? I'd like to see how you solve this problem!"
Ru Ru wished the worst upon Xiao Jinhua, she could completely lose her skin and Ru Ru would only celebrate. Hopefully then, she’d roll out of Tianhe City.
"Well, Ru Ru, it's all going to be alright. "
Zhao Jun was angry. This matter should not be underestimated. He had to take corresponding measures immediately.
"Brother Jun, you should teach her a good lesson!" Yelled Ru Ru.
She pinched his ass, reluctantly leaving the private room.
The door slammed with a bang.
Zhao Jun relaxed his breath and relaxed his mood. "Did she not scare you just now?"
"No, not at all," Xiao Jinhua said.
"Jinhua, you know what I have done for you all these years. Ru Ru and Pei Xiang have talked my ears off, but I haven't touched you. As long as you can pay the money on time every month and the Free Man Bar runs normally, everything will be all right between us. But you have to stay out of trouble. Do you think Ji Jiangshan is just a personal problem that will only affect the Free Man's bar? They won't do anything to you, but they'll come after me, do you understand that? Even Supersonic and Nocturniae, and my other industries, will be majorly affected, you know? If Ji Jiangshan goes to Jia Quan to tell him about the incident, I will have to pay money, millions of yuan at least. Even then, that’s still fine. But if he is really angry and he wants to knock your stubborn temper down a notch, that will not be a matter of money. Even if it is dealt with well, I will have to put in years of work and money to manage it!!! Do you understand? Ji Dongchen calls Jia Quan Godfather. I have seen that boy; he’s very bossy. A spoiled child. You think he can be bullied? There's no end to this!"

Zhao Jun said seriously.
After hearing this, Jinhua came to realize the seriousness of the problem. Over the past few years, she had experienced many big waves and had been able to land safely on the ground every time; but this time, things were really serious.
The only solution was to appease Ji Dongchen before Jia Quan could hear about his godson being bullied.
"Do not worry, Brother Jun. I am going to take care of what I have caused. I know what to do with Ji Dongchen. He will be satisfied. Even if I have to beg him, I won't get you into trouble."
Xiao Jinhua said.
"By the way, who beat him up? A veteran, you said?"
Zhao Jun’s eyes shook. "Go to apologize with him. If it is really not OK, according to the rules of the streets, cut his fingers. In good faith. In short, minimize the impact of this matter at all costs. Strangle it in the cradle!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinhua's brain was shocked. She now knew that she shouldn’t keep talking about Qin Feng. She wanted to show him off to Zhao Jun, but that idea was now over.
Noticing that Xiao Jinhua had hesitated, Zhao Jun continued, "Don't hesitate. There’s a price for everything. He’s just a waiter. Just chop off his fingers and get some money to get him out of here. In the future, recruit flexible people. Don’t hire those who come up to fight. If he really hit someone who should not be hit, you and I will be finished!!!"
"I see."
Xiao Jinhua nodded thoughtfully.
Zhao Jun looked at her up and down. The corners of his mouth flashed a smile of evil charm. Xiao Jinhua was wearing a semi-transparent black yarn dress. There was a cover for the bottom area and key places were not transparent at all. But it’s these somewhat revealing clothing that cause the most temptation. Zhao Jun had long wanted to engage a more intimate relationship with Xiao Jinhua, but she had never seemed willing. Zhao Jun was afraid to provoke his money maker. If she ran away, the loss would be incalculable.

But now that Xiao Jinhua was in trouble, he knew he could take advantage of the opportunity to make conditions.
"Jinhua, if Ji Dongchen must be pacified correctly, if he isn’t, I will also have to intervene in this matter. He surely knows this. Even if Jia Quan has not made a move until now, it is likely because I have been honoring him all these years, but a person like him won’t stay quiet for long. Jia Quan is a rogue. If you go to him, it’s not likely things will go smoothly. See where I’m going with this?"
Zhao Jun stepped out of the bed. He walked towards Xiao Jinhua, "You know, if you want the Free Man Bar to continue making money, we’ll have to go to the suite to discuss more about this topic. For some things, simply talking face-to-face is not enough."
Xiao Jinhua naturally knew what Zhao Jun was implying. She hesitated, retreated, and did not give Zhao Jun the chance to get her alone. She jumped out of the room with a grip on the doorknob. "Brother Jun, I think it’s best if I go to get rid of this Ji Dongchen problem first, before it's too late. Rest easy, I’ll see you again soon."
At that moment, Zhao Jun's mobile phone rang. He chased her to the door, angrily stomping his feet. Damn it. I’ll let you go this time, but you cannot escape my grasp for long!!!
He went back to his room and looked at the cell phone. It was Meng Zhaolin.
!!!
The People's Hospital. Outside the operating room.
Zhu Fei was anxiously waiting for her father's surgery, pacing back and forth in the corridor.
Qin Feng brought a boxed lunch from the hospital canteen. " When I said I wanted to have a meal with you, I did not expect it to be in the middle of this incident. Here, eat something.”
"You eat it. I can't eat right now."
Zhu Fei was not in the mood to eat now. Her father's chance at survival was uncertain. She was dying of worry.
"Don't give up on him yet. Your father cleans outside all year round. He’s been getting a lot of exercise. His bones should be very strong. Fortunately, Jia Dapeng, that bastard, only hit him with the broom. It should only be some flesh wounds. It all depends on whether your father can resist them."
Qin Feng said soothingly.
"Jia Dapeng! I can't forgive him."
At the mention of that bastard, Zhu Fei would get very angry. If Qin Feng hadn’t blocked her from him, she would have torn the guy to pieces!!!
"Well, I'm sure my father won't forgive him when he gets settled!"
Qin Feng was still thinking of something more puzzling - Zhu Fei’s identity.
She seemed bright, drove a luxury car, and had an extraordinary temperament, but nobody would expect her father to be a sanitation worker.
Qin Feng did not look down on sanitation workers. The laborers were the greatest working people, but the curiosity stemmed from the difference between those two people being too great. No one would imagine that they were father and daughter.
Noticing that Zhu Fei's mood had eased a little bit, Qin Feng asked, "Are you a native of Tianhe? Since you’re renting a house on the riverside, I thought you were a non-native."
"Why do you ask?"
Zhu Fei said sensitively.
"No reason. I just feel like-”
Zhu Fei interrupted, "You think my father and I don’t look alike, right?"
