Chapter 1628: Stumbling into Old Enemies in a Foreign Country

1628 Stumbling into Old Enemies in a Foreign Country Translated by XephiZ

Edited by Aelryinth

The Berlens were a relatively new renowned clan in Greece. They had risen abruptly in recent years, managed by a woman from a small family that people had almost forgotten. To Mo Fan’s surprise, the reflexology center that Zhao Manyan and him visited was owned by the Berlens.

Every renowned clan that rose quickly would normally have a legendary member who had attracted many Mages to join them. It would also gather others with the same surname into their clan, but the Berlens were slightly different, as they did not care much about their surname. Therefore, the clan’s members had different surnames!

“I met her twice. She’s indeed an impressive person. By the way, she’s a beauty too,” Leng Qing informed them.

“Good to know, it’s easier for a man like me to come to terms with a beautiful lady,” Mo Fan said shamelessly. He then pointed at Apas and added, “See, even such a good-looking angel was conquered by my charm. Right, Apas?”

“Hehe…” Apas laughed half-heartedly, a strong disdain in her eyes.

Leng Qing was amused by the brief exchange between them as they waited before the door to the manor. It opened soon.

“Please inform your head that Leng Qing from China’s Magic City is here,” Leng Qing said.

“Yes, Madam. Please wait here for the time being,” the tuxedoed butler nodded.

—

They did not wait for too long. The butler ushered them to a garden full of fragrant blue flowers. The garden was delicately decorated, with a man-made pond at the center. It was perfectly clear, like a huge blue gem embedded in the garden.

There was a building beside the lake, and a glass corridor extended out across the lake from it. On the lake were a few white pavilions with dining tables and chairs. The woman who was the head of the clan was seated in the main pavilion, waiting for her sudden guests.

“What’s going on here? Aren’t we just paying her a visit? Why did it feel like…we are attending a secret date?” Mo Fan was utterly confused.

Leng Qing was very surprised. The dining tables and drinks were clearly prepared in advance, yet they had only waited briefly at the entrance.

“Please follow me,” the butler politely ushered them on.

The three followed the butler to meet the head of the clan. She was indeed a beauty, especially her eyes, which were as blue as the lake, and as gorgeous as the stars. They could sense a unique noble bearing from her even before she spoke.

“Mm?” the head murmured when Leng Qing and the others came closer.

“Rosie!” Leng Qing called out when she noticed the head of the clan seemed a little surprised.

Meanwhile, another butler had brought three Asians to the pavilion. They happened to be coming from the opposite direction.

Rosie was startled, and looked at the other group.

The butler that led Mo Fan and his group realized he might have brought in the wrong guests. He immediately put on an apologetic face and turned to Leng Qing, Mo Fan, and Apas, “I’m sorry, my mistress is going to be busy receiving three important…”

“Leng Qing, you came just in time. I’m about to receive three guests that are also from China’s Magic City. I was thinking that since you are all from the same place, it would be easier for us to get along. Do you mind?” Rosie did not let the butler finish the sentence. She rose to her feet and walked up to Leng Qing to receive her in person.

Leng Qing already felt a little awkward. It was obvious that the butler had mistaken them for the other group.

Rosie happened to have prepared the place to receive three other guests from China. The butler must have struggled to distinguish between Asian faces. He had assumed Mo Fan and his group were the guests, and therefore immediately ushered them in. However, the other butler happened to be ushering the actual guests that Rosie had invited in right after them.

However, Leng Qing immediately shook off the awkward feeling after hearing Rosie’s words.

Rosie invited them to take a seat before heading to the glass corridor to receive the other three important guests.

“I happened to have some guests from the same city as yours today. I’ve boldly invited them to have dinner with us. I hope you won’t mind,” Rosie said with a gentle smile, while nodding at Mo Fan and the others who had taken their seats.

“Why would we? We know you have a lot of connections. We are pleased to meet other young talented Mages too,” the young lady walking ahead of the group said.

The woman had a gentle and soothing voice.

“I don’t mind, as long as they aren’t irritating,” a handsome man said. He happened to glance at Apas as he finished the sentence. His eyes glittered after seeing Apas’s unusual temperament.

Innocent and alluring were opposite traits for a girl, yet he was seeing both traits from Apas. His first impression toward Apas was innocent and pure, yet her skin, body, and eyebrows were surprisingly alluring!

Rosie noticed that the handsome man was not acting friendly, but she had to play the proper hostess under the circumstances.

Luckily, the table was big enough to hold both groups. There were some vacant chairs on the side too. They just needed to move the chairs and set up the table with cutlery. It did not look like the table was set at the very last moment.

“It’s you!” The Asian lady was surprised as soon as she saw Mo Fan.

“Oh!” Mo Fan let out a weird sound.

“It’s the young master of the Bai Clan. How surprising to see you enjoying the foreign culture in Greece? Or perhaps you are interested in Rosie, the beauty of the Berlens?” Mui Nuxin sat opposite Mo Fan with a smile. She sounded collected, but with an obvious hint of surprise.

“Ugh…” Mo Fan immediately felt awkward. The woman still remembered what had happened in the past.

What a coincidence, there was a misunderstanding when he had visited the Mui Clan too. Mui Nuxin mistook him as Bai Hongfei from the Bai Clan, which had ended up as a joke. He did not expect to stumble into Mui Nuxin again in Greece, especially after how the butler had mistaken them as Rosie’s guests.

“Bai Clan? You’re Bai Hongfei? Humph!” the handsome man glared at Mo Fan and grunted.

Mo Fan was utterly speechless. What did Bai Hongfei do this time? Why did the guy act like he was about to challenge him to a duel as soon as the name was mentioned?

“Oh wow, it sounds like Leng Qing is going to introduce an impressive handsome man to me. It’s great that you two know one another already,” Rosie said smoothly.

Rosie was not too surprised that the two groups actually knew one another. China might have a huge population, but the upper class and the renowned clans in China were fairly small, not to mention that they were both from the same city. It was reasonable for them to know one another.

“Of course he is, I’ve always wanted to invite this mysterious young man to be my guest, but he never showed up. It seems like I’m not as charming as Sister Rosie. I wouldn’t have had the chance to meet him if it wasn’t for you!” Mui Nuxin stared at Mo Fan.

“Mui Nuxin, don’t flatter me. Why are you in Athens?” Mo Fan inquired.

“I have some business here lately, and Sister Rosie and I happen to have some common goals…” Mui Nuxin said.

Mo Fan remembered that Mui Nuxin was a businesswoman engrossed in earning money. She might not understand anything about magic, but she was in charge of the Mui Clan’s financial affairs despite her age!

“It sounds like you often visit other countries to earn money from foreigners,” Mo Fan said.

“HAHA, you can say that!” Mui Nuxin laughed. She was in a good mood after Mo Fan’s sudden appearance.

“Stop having a conversation on your own. Shouldn’t you introduce them to us properly? Nuxin?” the older of the two men prodded her.

He had thick eyebrows, and seemed to be in his thirties, yet he had the serious bearing of a man around fifty. He was most likely the main guest, considering how Rosie had served him fruits first!

“Sure, well, this is… Bai…” Mui Nuxin was a little hesitant.

“I am Mo Fan!” Mo Fan looked up and introduced himself calmly.

Mo Fan was somewhat observant. He initially thought Mui Nuxin was calling him Bai Hongfei just to fool with him. However, he soon realized that she was trying to hide his identity on purpose.

The only reason Mui Nuxin would do so was because the two men with her might have some grudge against him, the kind of grudge that everyone was well aware of.

Mo Fan had offended a lot of people in his country, especially people from other renowned clans.

However, he was not afraid of stirring up trouble. He did not need Mui Nuxin to cover up for him. He preferred to get right to the point!

As he thought, the expressions of the two men sank as soon as they heard his name.

The handsome young man was only acting a little disdainful at the mention of Bai Hongfei’s name. However, when he realized the guy was actually Mo Fan, he immediately rose to his feet and glared at Mo Fan like he was going to throw a punch at him at any second.

The other guy’s straight face twisted slightly. He was obviously withholding his anger as he spoke, “Mo Fan, humph, very well…”

“It’s your turn to introduce yourself,” Mo Fan reminded them fearlessly.

Rosie was utterly speechless about how the situation had developed. If she had known something like this would happen, she would rather have split them up. Her efforts to be smooth and slick while adjudicating between the two groups were completely in vain!

Mui Nuxin seemed to have a headache, too. She patted Rosie on the shoulder to comfort her. Wearing a fake smile was never going to work on someone as hot-tempered as Mo Fan…
