Free Web NovelChapter 1115: Chapter 1086: You’re Not a Good Person
"I think you’re doing it on purpose, aren’t you? Teasing me without letting me indulge!" Not wanting to discuss the matter further, Xiao Lin deliberately changed the topic. "Actually, I’ve recovered enough to engage in certain activities." He motioned suggestively with his eyes.
"Oh, really? I haven’t heard your attending physician say that. Unless he tells me you’re cleared for everything, there’s no room for discussion." Xia Xue raised her chin slightly, her eyes dropping to watch Xiao Lin.
"What? You want me to go to that Black Doctor guy..." Xiao Lin shouted. "You’re the one who’s trouble!" he pouted resentfully.
Fingers wandering restlessly across Xiao Lin’s chest muscles, Xia Xue sprawled herself down. "You made a promise to that young lady, but I don’t see the advantage. A losing deal isn’t worth doing." From a businessman’s perspective, Xiao Lin seemed to gain no profit, and such intangible capital is the hardest to calculate. "Running around everywhere, it looks to me like you’re only serving others’ interests. That girl seems kind-hearted, but from my perspective as someone who frequents the business world, she doesn’t seem reliable. Why would she hide her relationship with Meisai, and is that Jessica girl a schemer, using her beauty to lure people? To me, Francis seems like Jessica’s little sidekick. It’s all so dissonant!"
Xiao Lin lifted Xia Xue off her feet and flipped her over beneath him. Her startled gasp was immediately swallowed by Xiao Lin’s mouth, his tongue brushing over her pearly teeth, swallowing all words unfitting for such a moment.
"I can’t wait any longer!" Seeing the reproach in Xia Xue’s eyes, Xiao Lin instinctively avoided them. He had numerous methods to make this woman surrender, for the person who truly understood this beautiful body wasn’t necessarily its owner.
"You rascal!" Came a soft complaint as Xia Xue pressed her palms against Xiao Lin’s head, somewhat distraught.
"If you keep letting your thoughts wander, I’m going to get upset!" Xiao Lin threatened as he lifted his head, although the worry in Xia Xue’s eyes stirred a bit of reluctance in him, prompting him to slowly shift upward, lying next to her shoulder to shoulder.
"I get nothing from Francis, but I can gain something from Nicholas. It was no surprise Francis found me; she’s a calculating woman." Propping his head with one hand, Xiao Lin began explaining to Xia Xue as his fingers played with her hair, twirling it into loops. "Do you know what Shao Weihua wants most?"
"I heard from Chopin, but I still don’t understand!"
"My injury was most beneficial not to Nicholas, nor to Mu Rongyun! From the recent commotion, it’s clear who benefits. If Genovese is eliminated, then Robert is the most likely to take over Genovese’s business. This is why I didn’t let Francis join the family meeting tonight. If Nicholas is smart, he’d follow Shao Weihua’s logic, although I didn’t expect Augusto to be taken out. I’m sure Nicholas thought the same."
"Are you referring to the time I was poisoned at the venue?" Xia Xue pecked lightly at Xiao Lin’s lips, as if rewarding him, encouraging him to say more.
"There’s business between Robert and Fourth Lord, so Genovese’s drug trade occurs along two different lines. This is an agreement between Shao Weihua and Mu Rongyun, with Robert opening another route in Sicily. However, Wang Zhanting or Shao Weihua seems a bit wild, aiming to take down the entire Italian Mafia, which stirs up internal conflicts among the top families, making the crisis we couldn’t initially perceive surface."
"So, you’re saying the current Godfather is just useless!"
"If you all can see through Nicholas’s intentions, he wouldn’t be sitting in that position!" Restless hands started wandering under Xia Xue’s nightdress, the skin-to-skin contact always feeling so wonderful. "From the beginning, Shao Weihua targeted the two weaker families in the five great families, leaving internal contradictions to resolve themselves, finding an obedient one from the small families to elevate. Meanwhile, he exploits Nicholas’s vulnerabilities. Such a scheme doesn’t look like his own thought; he’s merely a perpetrator who executed poorly, messing up a lot and dragging many into it."
"But, I still don’t understand what this has to do with you. Why target you? If it’s Mu Rongyun, I could at least somewhat understand." Xia Xue said, arching her body as a soft groan escaped her nose.
"The mastermind behind Shao Weihua is someone from the central figures, targeting not just me, but the entire Xiao Family. From his trajectory, Shao Weihua seemingly wants to devour the entire Mafia and is certainly after our Xiao Family’s treasure!"
"What about Qing Yi? I heard in Yanjing there were disputes between you!"
Xiao Lin’s tongue traced over the raised buds on Xia Xue, skillfully savoring the taste. "I’m not entirely sure of his intentions!" The dispute indeed existed, with its onset quite baffling, but recalling it now, Hua Qingyi’s expression seemed unusual at the time.
"And... is that legend real?"
Xiao Lin didn’t reply, his pupils dilating, everything he saw and heard growing distant. Driven by instinct, he hooked Xia Xue’s right leg over his shoulder, slowly and powerfully swaying his hips, breaking through her defense and passing layers of barriers to enter that mysterious region. By the time the person beneath him became alert, it was too late.
"You’re just a bad guy!"
"Haha, if men aren’t bad, women don’t love them!" Xiao Lin mischievously moved his hips, making the still angry woman scream instantly. "Darling, your voice is a bit loud! There are several healthy males outside; I don’t want to be killed by their stares tomorrow."
Seeing Xia Xue obediently shut her mouth, Xiao Lin chuckled softly.
On Robert’s first day in charge, he replaced all the halls of Genovese with his own people. Anyone unwilling to submit met death at the hands of a tall man and a clown, cleanly sprinkling blood across all of Genovese Clan’s territories.
Under the suppression of force and death, no hero would easily emerge to play the fool. Regarding his method of "obey me and live, defy me and die," Robert always had a cold smile on his face, confident in the deterrent effect. He found himself thoroughly liking the current Godfather. His promise was realized surprisingly fast; at the last meeting, it was said that whoever had the power to climb up would become part of a top family, and in yesterday’s meeting, this remark was announced by the Godfather himself before it needed a reminder. However, he was dissatisfied with the mocking gazes from those old guys in the organization, a feeling still being trampled underfoot, urging him to break out in rage.
How many halls have there been now? Robert glanced casually at Raphael beside him. When did this expelled man return? "Raphael, you really don’t need to follow me; having the counterparts is enough!"
Raphael gave Robert a sweet smile. "How could outsiders be better than our own? Besides, the Godfather thinks you’re unfamiliar with internal affairs just after taking the post, so I’m here as a guide to introduce our Assassin Hall’s masters to you, to avoid any mistakes in the future that would be bad!"
Robert rubbed his nose, disdainfully taking a step forward; truthfully, standing next to this man who looked like a spring breeze for even a moment made him feel as though he was about to be plunged into Hell, despite his bloodstained hands already not fearing death, but...
