I am a dragon

I escaped death once again, scrambling to my feet and managing to distance myself from the Tibetan mastiff.

Dog Brother's eyes flashed, and he whistled. The Tibetan Mastiff stood up again, its ferocity ignited by the heavy blow it had just received.

Huan and his gang stood behind, gloating. Some whistled, some clapped, and some screamed.

I grabbed an electric fan, panting heavily, waiting for the final battle.

At that moment, a motorcycle rushed into the factory and blocked my way with the Tibetan Mastiff. A kind woman shouted at Dog Brother, "Dog Brother, Sixth Master's phone call!"

Dog Brother frowned and let out a sharp whistle. The Tibetan Mastiff seemed to understand, lay down on the ground, and stopped attacking.

It turned out to be Tao Xiaotao who drove there.

Tao Xiaotao got out of the car and handed her phone to Brother Gou.

Dog Brother took the phone with suspicion, then went to the side to answer it.

Tao Xiaotao walked up to me and asked with concern, "Lu Feng, are you alright?"

"Why are you here? Get out of here!" I practically yelled.

"I'm fine." I don't know how she knew I was in trouble, but seeing her, my tense nerves quickly relaxed, and my voice trembled.

Just as Tao Xiaotao was about to speak, Zhou Mingyuan's voice rang out: "Tao Xiaotao, you really are having an affair with this kid, you've cheated on me, damn it!"

Zhou Mingyuan was bitten twice by the Tibetan Mastiff, and he was in so much pain that he grimaced.

Tao Xiaotao seemed to only just notice him. She turned her head and sternly rebuked Zhou Mingyuan: "Zhou Mingyuan, are you even a man? Back then, you were penniless. What did I say? Without me, would you have been able to stay in Jinhai for so many years?"

But what about you? You teamed up with Director Du and a few others to sabotage me, secretly taking my money to sleep with other women, and now you want to use divorce proceedings to take a share of my assets.

Why don't I let you touch me? Don't you have any self-awareness? Tell me, how many times have you had an STD?

These words immediately caused an uproar at the scene!

Huan and his friends quietly distanced themselves from Zhou Mingyuan, as if Zhou Mingyuan were a major cancer.

Zhou Mingyuan's lips twitched violently, and he shouted, "Bullshit! You clearly had your eye on this bastard all along."

"Don't try to pin this on me."

"Then why did you recommend Lu Feng, a former convict, to Jinhai? Don't think I didn't see it; his information has been on your desk for a long time!"

I was slightly surprised. Jiang Ruxue had helped me find this job, but I didn't expect it to be Tao Xiaotao.

What I didn't expect was that Tao Xiaotao knew about me before I even joined Jinhai.

How is that possible?

But Zhou Mingyuan didn't seem to be lying.

Just as Tao Xiaotao was about to refute Zhou Mingyuan, Brother Gou walked over.

Zhou Mingyuan shouted, "Brother Gou, hurry up and kill this kid!"

Dog Brother ignored him, walked up to Tao Xiaotao, handed the phone back to her, and said, "Since Sixth Master has spoken, you can leave now."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingyuan asked, "Brother Gou, what do you mean?"

"I'm sorry, Manager Zhou, I'll refund your money right away. Sixth Master said this person can't be touched, so there's nothing I can do." Dog Brother said calmly.

Zhou Mingyuan asked in surprise, "Tao Xiaotao, how...how do you know Sixth Master Qiao?"

"It's none of your business."

Tao Xiaotao looked disdainful.

Zhou Mingyuan hated me to the core, yet he couldn't pose a threat to me.

Dog Brother turned to Huan Brother and the others in the urban village and said, "Don't cause any more trouble for Lu Feng. Sixth Master said so, understand?"

"I heard you!"

Huan and the others looked puzzled, but they dared not disobey what Sixth Master said.

I got into Tao Xiaotao's car and left the abandoned factory.

Sitting on the motorcycle, I looked back and felt like I was in another world. I had a lot of questions I wanted to ask.

For example, did Jiang Ruxue ask her to let me into the community property management office? How did Tao Xiaotao invite Qiao Laoliu today, and how did she get Qiao Laoliu to let me off the hook?

But I didn't have time to ask right now. I said anxiously, "My sister-in-law is in trouble. Please take me to Maple Leaf Nightclub."

"What happened?" Tao Xiaotao asked me as she drove.

I scratched my head and said, "I don't know the specifics, but my sister-in-law Jiang Ruxue was tricked into going to Maple Forest, and now someone wants to harm her."

Tao Xiaotao thought for a moment and said, "How can you save your sister-in-law all by yourself?"

"I don't know either. We'll just have to wait and see. We can't just stand by and watch my sister-in-law get bullied by bad guys, can we?"

So much happened today, my head is a mess, and it all happened so suddenly, I didn't have time to think.

All she could think about was that if Jiang Ruxue was even a second late, she would be in even greater danger.

Tao Xiaotao glanced at me, her eyes revealing a mixture of admiration and disappointment. She seemed about to say something, but ultimately swallowed her words and silently started the car.

After that, none of us spoke, and the car drove towards the maple forest.

The maple forest was closed before opening hours.

I frantically called Jiang Ruxue, but her phone kept ringing and no one answered.

Something must have happened!

Before the car had even stopped, I jumped out and rushed toward the gate of the maple forest.

"Lu Feng..."

Tao Xiaotao called me from behind, but I didn't answer her.

When I got to the gate, it was locked. I knocked twice, but no one responded.

I went around to the back and saw an open window, so I climbed through and jumped inside.

This startled one of the young men guarding the place, who cursed, "Damn it, who is it? Are you crazy? It's not time yet. Is your mother in a hurry for her funeral?"

I grabbed the man by the collar and yelled angrily, "Where is Zhao Guoqiang?"

The other person was startled by me, took a closer look, didn't recognize me, and slapped my hand away: "Where did this idiot come from? Get lost, or I'll kill you."

I was really enraged, so I shoved him aside and barged inside, yelling, "Zhao Guoqiang, Zhao Guoqiang, get out here!"

The boy who opened the door rushed over from behind, but was kicked by Tao Xiaotao, who arrived later, and fell face-first against the wall.

"Someone's causing trouble! Someone's causing trouble!"

The shouts quickly alerted the guards, and a dozen burly men with fierce eyes rushed down from upstairs.

Most of these burly men were shirtless, revealing various tattoos, and each carried galvanized steel pipes, machetes, bottles, and baseball bats.

I was still shouting, "Zhao Guoqiang, Zhao Guoqiang, come out here!"

A burly man with a long face pointed a steel pipe at me and shouted, "Who the hell are you, daring to cause trouble in Maple Forest?"

My blood felt like it was boiling. I stared at him and said, "I'm looking for Zhao Guoqiang!"

"Fuck you! Do it!"

As soon as the horse-faced man finished speaking, more than a dozen people rushed towards me.

I spotted Zhao Guoqiang coming downstairs and shouted, "Zhao Guoqiang, where's my sister-in-law? What have you done to her?"

Zhao Guoqiang stood on the stairs, recognized me, and said with a sneer, "Want to find your sister-in-law? Fine, you'll regret it."
