My Son-in-law Is A War God
Chapter 1307 - 1308: No Banquet is a Good Banquet

Chapter 1307: Chapter 1308: No Banquet is a Good Banquet

"Speak!"

Xiao Chen said while eating fruits.

Zhan Meng lowered his voice and said, "We have received reliable information that recently, someone is planning to make a move against Mr. Xiao!"

"Assassinate me?"

Xiao Chen asked.

"Exactly. Ever since Mr. Xiao arrived in the Capital City, many people have been watching you. After all, the Bai Group is a sought-after prize, not to mention Pan Family Garden. There are quite a few who want to snatch them from your hands."

Zhan Meng answered.

"If you came here today just to tell me this, then I thank you, but there’s really no need. Those who want to kill me have never been in short supply.

Starting from Linhai, all the way here, there have been many who wanted me dead."

Xiao Chen said indifferently.

"Mr. Xiao, you must not be careless. The caliber of the people who want to kill you this time is by no means the same as before. You should understand this better than I do."

Zhan Meng reminded.

"Including your Zhan Family?"

Xiao Chen suddenly asked.

What?

Zhan Meng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "My Zhan Family honors martial prowess above all. Apart from the international security firm, we only run martial arts schools. We do not engage in other kinds of business.

So the Bai Group doesn’t attract us."

"What about Pan Family Garden? Not attractive either?"

Xiao Chen said with a faint smile, "As far as I know, the Zhan Family oversees several Jianghu sects, it’s just a shame that not one is among the top eight. The Pan Family Garden must be of great attraction to you, right?"

"Mr. Xiao, we indeed had thoughts about Pan Family Garden, but now it’s nothing but a mess, meaningless to our Zhan Family and therefore, has lost any interest for us."

Zhan Meng explained.

Zhan Meng, he isn’t as reckless as he appears.

Zhan Meng, endowed with a sturdy, intimidating physique, would lead most people to believe he was a simple-minded, physically strong individual.

But those who truly understand Zhan Meng would know that his robustness is merely a facade; his intelligence is actually the most fearsome aspect.

In the Capital City, there is talk of the "Four Beauties and Four Young Masters."

The Capital City’s Four Beauties refer to Emperor Tianjiao, Ye Menghua, Bai Duo’er, and Shang Feiyue!

These four individuals are unmatched in beauty and talent within the Capital City.

The Four Young Masters of the Capital City also denote four distinguished young individuals and one of them is Zhan Meng.

The other three are Di Tian’ao from the Di Family, Jun Moyao from the Jun Family, and Shang Feiyang from the Shang Clan!

Zhan Meng’s Zhan Family is ranked just slightly above the Zhou Family and Shangguan Family among the top ten Aristocratic Clans.

Yet he has the stature of one of the Capital City’s Four Young Masters.

Better-ranked Ye Family, Yue Family, Lin Family, Huang Family, and Bai Family do not have this privilege.

This shows how formidable Zhan Meng is.

Therefore, he is someone who should never be underestimated.

"Heh, one can only hope!"

Xiao Chen looked at Zhan Meng and said, "I’m aware of the matter you’ve spoken of. Is there anything else?"

"Mr. Xiao, I know you’re not yet concerned, but I still need to emphasize seriously once more, the Capital City is very dangerous lately!"

Zhan Meng said.

"Hmm, I’m aware of it."

Xiao Chen still maintained a nonchalant expression, as if the so-called danger had nothing to do with him.

"Since that’s the case, I shall take my leave. If you need any assistance, feel free to ask. The Zhan Family does not wish to be enemies with the Xiao Family, nor do we want to clash with the Xinmeng Group."

After saying this, he turned around and left.

Bai Duo’er accompanied Zhan Meng to the door.

Xiao Chen remained seated there.

Before long, Bai Duo’er came back.

"What do you think?"

Xiao Chen asked.

"The Zhan Family has always stayed out of the struggles between Aristocratic Clans and indeed has no interest in commerce; they pursue the ultimate in Martial Dao."

Bai Duo’er said, "I think perhaps we could get along well with the Zhan Family."

"Really?"

Xiao Chen smiled, noncommittal.

Right now, it wasn’t clear what the Zhan Family was plotting, so he couldn’t jump to conclusions.

But in this world, some people seem harmless, yet they can be quite troublesome.

Before ascertaining the true identity of the King of Hades, everyone is worth suspecting.

"By the way, Xiao Chen, about tonight’s banquet, maybe you shouldn’t go."

Bai Duo’er suggested.

Previously, there was an invitation to a banquet organized by the Lin Family, inviting well-known individuals from the Capital City including Bai Duo’er, the CEO of the Bai Group, as well as the Xiao Family Patriarch Xiao Chen.

Both of them had initially been interested in attending.

But Bai Duo’er was now somewhat worried because of what Zhan Meng had said earlier.

Xiao Chen had made quite a few enemies; if someone attempted to assassinate him, it would be troublesome.

"Go? Why wouldn’t I?"

Xiao Chen laughed, "It’s just right, I’d like to see what the big shots of the Capital City are up to when they gather, and moreover, I’m planning to publicly announce my relationship with the Xiao Family during this banquet.

There’s really no need to hide it anymore.

I wasn’t in the Capital City before and feared that someone might harm my family members.

But now that I’m back in the Capital City, it will be discovered sooner or later, so I might as well come clean.

It’s a good opportunity to visit my home!"

Having to always hide was quite uncomfortable; not being able to reunite with his parents was truly agonizing.

Things will be better now; he has returned to the Capital City, and soon, Xinmeng Group will establish a branch there.

The chances to be with family members will be far more frequent.

"Forget it, I won’t try to persuade you anymore, you always have your own reasoning."

Bai Duo’er shook her head; she couldn’t always catch up with Xiao Chen’s train of thought. Sometimes she wondered, how did Jiang Meng keep up?

In fact, she was wrong; Jiang Meng’s trick was to play dumb.

In matters like these, Jiang Meng simply didn’t overthink.

Yet in business decisions, Jiang Meng’s intelligence was by no means inferior to Xiao Chen’s.

Naturally, she could keep up.

Home was still the same home.

A beautiful courtyard house that now was even equipped with modern amenities.

This courtyard house had once been offered four billion yuan, but Xiao Enze had not sold it.

Because at that time, Xiao Chen hadn’t returned yet, and Xiao Enze said that they couldn’t make it so that Xiao Chen couldn’t find his way back home.

Now that Xiao Chen had returned, and with wealth, he was even less likely to sell.

When Lin Yue opened the door and saw Xiao Chen, she revealed a delighted smile and shouted into the house: "Dad, Mom, a distinguished guest is here!"

"Sister-in-law, what distinguished guest? No matter how distinguished I am, I still have to call you sister-in-law."

Xiao Chen smiled, picked up Xiao Bao, and followed Lin Yue inside.

Shang Qingcheng had already come out to meet them, tears streaming down her face as she saw her son whom she hadn’t seen for a long time.

"Oh, old lady, look at you. It’s not easy for our son to come home, why are you crying?"

"Dad, look at you talking about Mom. Aren’t your eyes red, too?"

Lin Yue laughed.

"That’s just sand in my eyes,"

Xiao Enze wouldn’t admit he had cried.

"Xiao Chen, you’re going to stay for a long time this time, right?"

Lin Yue asked.

"Mhm, I might stay in the Capital City for a very long time from now on. I plan to have another wedding with Jiang Meng in the Capital City, to give her a wedding of the century!"

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Aren’t you afraid of exposing your identity?"

Xiao Enze voiced his concerns.

"Not afraid!"

Xiao Chen smiled, "Mom, I’m hungry. I want to eat the sweet and sour fish you make, would you cook it for me?"
