Chapter 1297: Chapter 1276: Justifiable Self-Defense

The person who arrived wasn’t anyone else but the Godfather of the Italian Mafia, Nicholas! It wasn’t surprising that he was invited to the banquet. After all, there’s hardly a businessman without several partners in the underworld, such is the unwritten secret.

Nicholas extended both arms towards Xiao Lin, giving him a warm hug. "Young Master Xiao, since the last time, we haven’t had a drink together for ages. You really are a busy man, I’ve invited you several times but haven’t been able to arrange it!" His words didn’t contain the slightest hint of anger, rather, they had a heavier tone of regret.

"Nicholas, it’s been a while." Xiao Lin similarly patted his back. Despite being a Godfather, Xiao Lin had a considerable liking for him; he hadn’t intervened in his affairs from start to finish, and regardless of Nicholas’s motives, it was a help to Xiao Lin.

"Not at all, I should thank you for what you did for Genovis. Without you, I think it would be difficult for me to still be securely seated inside Joseph No. 13." Nicholas spoke in an extremely low volume.

Everyone present altered their gaze when Xiao Lin directly called the Godfather by name. Nicholas’s status in Sicily was a remarkably precious figure. Besides his special identity, his family’s history could be traced far back, truly royal aristocratic descendants. To put it bluntly, those wishing to conduct business in Sicily can do so without having government relationships, but absolutely cannot offend this local powerhouse, he surely had the confidence to crush anyone cleanly without leaving a trace.

"The Godfather is also old acquaintances with Young Master Xiao?" Murong Kun, who had been on the sidelines, was somewhat surprised. He had never heard such a layer of relationship from Murong Lengyue’s mouth. This young man seemed quite unusual!

"Certainly, Young Master Xiao and I can be described as kindred spirits upon first meeting. It’s just that recently we’ve both had things on hand, unable to gather properly. I didn’t expect to meet Young Master Xiao here, truly my honor!" Nicholas placed an illustrious cap on Xiao Lin’s head wittingly or unintentionally, whether genuine or otherwise, but this honor caused some people to see stars and feel dizzy.

"Oh, it’s my fault for being occupied and not visiting, it’s should’ve been my oversight." Xiao Lin knew Nicholas intentionally elevated his status in others’ presence to show the crowd. For his goodwill, Xiao Lin suppressed a smile. He didn’t intend to make his identity publicly known, with Elder Xiao and Xiao Mu at the forefront of the Xiao Family, he was just present for minor roles.

Supposedly, Nicholas did this also because the person was Quan Xianglin’s man, and he wanted to seize the chance for a lesson. When standing out in others’ territory, the bold will be knocked down, knowing some restraint is essential.

The person referred to as Uncle Quan glanced at Quan Mingyuan, signaling him to hold his tongue despite the Godfather’s appearance. He still coldly faced Xiao Lin. "Unaware of why Young Master Xiao bullied my nephew so severely?"

"Self-defense!"

Xiao Lin’s indifferent manner caused Uncle Quan to lose face. "You say self-defense, who can testify?"

Xiao Lin surveyed the young masters before him. "These people, I wouldn’t count on them! Whether you believe or not, deep down you know best what kind of person he is. If today you wish to cause an issue, I don’t mind taking note of your surname Quan." Xiao Lin snorted coldly, ignoring this person further as he turned with Nicholas to leave.

Xiao Lin’s disregard caused everyone present to gape, most surprised was Murong Kun. He knew this kid was arrogant but not to this extent. Who was this Uncle Quan anyway? A direct connection of Quan Xianglin, and that Quan Mingyuan was Quan Xianglin’s only cherished son. This kid kicked two iron plates simultaneously and with such clean contempt, even the Murong Family would show some politeness in public for future encounters.

Murong Lengyue noticed the one Xiao Lin took away was Nicholas, feeling a tiny bit displeased inside. Meanwhile, those around began to discuss this young man’s identity, his aura overshadowing the talks of Murong Family also spread quietly.

"You..." Indeed, in this world, there are those unafraid of death; daring to play tough with the Quan Family hadn’t emerged before, Uncle Quan’s anger exploded immediately.

"Younger Brother Quan, do me a favor by ending this today. The Elder is waiting inside, now’s not the time. It wouldn’t be best to alarm him, would you agree?" Murong Kun stood before Uncle Quan, smiling while speaking.

This matter seems like it’s provoked by Quan Mingyuan. Though he didn’t set much faith in Xiao Lin, besides his arrogance, this kid understood restraint, knew how to act appropriately. Behind his calm demeanor, truly lies a rebellious nature, if enraged, it could lead to substantial chaos.

He disdained arguing with such juniors, only advising this fiery person. Conversely, this surname Quan was disrespecting the Murong Family.

Uncle Quan noticed Murong Kun also pleaded for Xiao Lin and scoffed, "For my younger brother’s sake, I’ll let it go today." His erratic gaze focused on Xiao Lin’s back, suppressing inner wrath, humming loudly a few times afterward, no longer entangling in this matter. After instructing Quan Mingyuan’s return, he headed with Murong Kun into the hall.

The garden’s heated confrontation concluded here; spectators gradually dispersed to the hall to congratulate Elder Murong as if nothing had ever happened. Yet, there grew curiosity about Young Master Xiao and speculations linked to the attending Xiao Family tonight. However, Xiao Zhenfeng always accompanied a young, handsome man trailing him, while this Young Master Xiao arrived independently, relating to the Xiao Family only by surname perhaps.

Xiao Lin and Nicholas didn’t linger long in the hall. After entering the garden, they promptly left through the front gate and drove away. Witnessing their departure from the second floor, a person smiled unwittingly.

"Lin, should have found the opportune moment." Xiao Mu said to the person beside him; the garden’s stir reached inside immediately, Xiao Zhenfeng intentionally didn’t intervene, quietly waiting for results. "Unexpected how fate bound them so closely."

The fortune indeed referred to Quan Mingyuan, while the entering Uncle Quan glanced up, unreadable from his eyes.

"Don’t underestimate this man, this old fox won’t easily let Xiao Lin go." Xiao Zhenfeng raised his glass towards Uncle Quan’s direction in respect. (To be continued.
