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.
