You don't even want to call me godfather

"Let Hong get used to it. As a wolf hunter for so many years, it's a bit difficult for her to get used to normal life in such a short period of time."

"Yes, I was too hasty." Koshe noticed that it was snowing lightly. He closed the car window, glanced at the melancholy Destiny, and asked, "What is Destiny thinking about? This dress suits you very well. Why do you have such an expression?"

"Well... I'm in a similar situation," Destiny withdrew her gaze from the car window and leaned back in the seat. "Over the years, I've probably worn training clothes and combat clothes the most. It feels very strange to suddenly wear this kind of clothes."

"I'll have more opportunities to wear it in the future. At least it won't be annoying, right?" Koshe smiled and looked at the figures waiting at the entrance of the club. He slowly parked the car on the side of the road and said, "Okay, we're here. Don't forget to say hello."

"I know, I know. Brother, you are always like this. You are particularly serious about things that are not necessary."

Destiny complained, opened the car door and got out.

Koshe also pulled out the car key. He looked at himself in the rearview mirror, adjusted the position of his tie, then got out of the car and closed the door.

There were four people at the entrance of the club, Jose and Loft who were responsible for maintaining discipline, as well as Ange and Dana.

"Godfather, almost everyone has arrived," Jose walked forward first, bowed his head slightly, and reported, "The reception can begin now."

"Let them start playing first. This isn't a serious occasion. Be more casual." Koshe gave Jose instructions, then walked to Angelina and Dana with Destiny. "Angie, you're here."

"Mr. Koshe..." Angelina looked very shy, half of her body hiding behind Dana, "I... have never worn this kind of clothes, it feels so weird..."

"Koshe, you bastard." Compared to Angie, Dana seemed much more casual. She had no respect for the godfather at all. She only teased Koshe like a friend, "You held a party tonight but didn't invite Jill and me. You really just treated us as tools."

"You can come anytime you want. The Cascade family's business is always open to friends." He just smiled at Dana's teasing and said, "Having said that, where's Jill? Isn't she here?"

"You guys are so free that you're holding a cocktail party. Jill and I still have to go back to the bar to work," Dana waved the mechanical arm, looking a little helpless. "Okay, I've also sent my little sister Angel here. I won't disturb you guys from having fun. I'll go back to the bar first. But as I said before, if you need any help, feel free to contact me. This arm hasn't been used for a long time."

"Okay, then I won't send you off."

After Dana left, Koshe turned his attention back to Anjie.

Angelina, who was usually cheerful, now seemed particularly shy.

Even her wolper tail went around the side of her body to the front, hiding her legs under her gown.

"Angie," Koshe saw Angelina's embarrassment, he stepped forward and took her hand, comforting her, "Don't think too much, if anyone stares at you, I will dig out his eyes."

"laugh--"

Koshe's joke made Anjie couldn't help laughing out loud. She let Koshe lead her into the club.

Destiny followed the two of them, she pouted and looked a little depressed.

When Loft saw that everyone had gone in, he followed them into the club and prepared to close the glass door.

"Wait...wait a minute!"

Suddenly, a shout was heard by several people. They turned around and saw a man in a suit running towards them in a hurry.

Loft subconsciously wanted to draw his gun, but was stopped by Koshe.

"It's okay, he's my friend."

He said to Loft.

Loft also put away his gun, reopened the door and let the man in.

"Ah, sorry sorry, Godfather, I'm late."

It was Fred, he was panting, with his hands on his knees, looking at Koshei with an apologetic look on his face.

"No, it's okay. The party has just begun."

"Is this the Godfather's lover?" Fred stood up and noticed Angelina next to Koshe. He took a breath and praised, "She is so beautiful. She must be the most outstanding one in the crowd."

"Ah, this...this..."

Angelina had obviously never received such praise before. She seemed a little overwhelmed for a moment and could only look at Koshe helplessly.

"Okay, Fred, stop making things difficult for Angie," Koshei could only change the subject when he saw this. "By the way, why don't you see your lover?"

"Oh, that woman is still mad at me. She refuses to come no matter what," Fred complained with dissatisfaction, but then he regained his smile and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. What are you all doing standing at the door? Come in. You are the protagonist tonight, Godfather."

"Don't get so excited, Fred. It's just a cocktail party."

Koshe took Anjie by the hand and entered the club, followed by the others.

Inside the club, a jazz band had already started their performance on the stage, adding extra atmosphere to the party.

Everyone was holding up their glasses and chatting. Most of them were members of the family, and there were also some nobles of high status. They usually maintained business cooperation with the Cascade family. After hearing about the Godfather, they decided to come to the cocktail party to show their support.

When they saw Koshe and Anjie, they gradually quieted down and turned their attention to the two protagonists of the night.

Angelina seemed unable to bear such attention, and hid behind Koshe with her head down.

"Why are you all stopping? Keep playing. Do you want the Godfather to see you in a state of boredom?"

At this time, it was Jose, who knew Koshe best, who took the lead and revived the atmosphere in the club.

Everyone wisely stopped looking at Koshe and Angelina.

Led by Loft, several people came to a table that had been prepared in advance. This table was the largest seat in the club, and there was a row of sofas for them to lean on.

Koshe asked Anjie to sit at the innermost seat, and he sat next to her. The waiter brought a tray and placed several glasses of champagne on the table.

Everything seemed very satisfactory and elegant, and everyone was blending themselves into the environment, either naturally or deliberately.

But there is only one person who is somewhat out of place in this club.

That was Destiny. Since entering the club, she had been staring at Fred with suspicion and scrutiny.

Even though Fred was not sitting with them now, she was still staring at Fred who was chatting with other nobles not far away.

As the inseparable sister, Destiny is the one who knows Koshe's social circle best.

She had heard about the cadres, the party members, the families and organizations that cooperated with them, and even Rhodes Island.

But Fred was the only man who seemed to appear out of nowhere, and Koshe called him a friend. He was someone Destiny had never seen before.

Therefore, she also held a skeptical attitude towards this person.

Chapter 107 Exquisite Cane

The cocktail party had lasted for dozens of minutes, during which time all the guests were enjoying wine and snacks.

Most of the guests did not stay at their seats, but moved around freely, freely forming groups with other guests and chatting casually.

They tried their best to avoid noise and crowds, attempting to create a relaxed, convenient and comfortable banquet.

"Cough-cough-"

But since it was a cocktail party, cigarettes were inevitable, and Anjie, who didn't like tobacco, was undoubtedly intoxicated by the smell of smoke.

"What's wrong, Anjie? Are you not used to it?"

Seeing Anjie coughing, Koshe immediately expressed concern.

"No, it's all right, Mr. Kochei, just a cough - just a little choking."

Anjie rubbed her eyes, as if she didn't want Koshe to worry about her.

"If you feel choked, we can go to the air conditioner over there. The ventilation mode is always on here."

Upon hearing this, Koshe stood up, extended his hand to Angelina and invited her.

Anjie noticed the looks that other people gave them intentionally or unintentionally from time to time. After hesitating for a moment, she still held Koshe's hand.

The young couple walked through the slowly flowing crowd. Every guest carefully kept a distance from each other, and that was why they were able to reach the air conditioner without any hindrance.

"Speaking of which, has Anjie encountered any problems these days?" Koshe leaned against the wall, holding a glass of champagne in his hand. "The government should not have taken action against you again, right?"

"Well, no," Anjie shook her head, holding a non-alcoholic drink in her hand. "These past few days, apart from going to work at night, I have basically stayed in Miss Jill and Miss Dana's rental house the rest of the time, so it's okay, Mr. Koshe."

"Is that so..." Koshei was relieved, but he was thinking about one thing that particularly concerned him. "By the way, Anjie still hasn't corrected the way she calls me."

"Eh? Eh?" Angelina obviously took Koshe's joke seriously. Her face flushed and she stuttered, "Ko...Koshe...first...Koshe..."

"Haha, there's no need to be so serious." Seeing Angelina's reaction, Koshei felt much better. He smiled and said, "No matter how Angelina calls me, as long as you like it, I don't care."

"Hmm..." Angelina lowered her head, her eyes darting around because of nervousness. After a long while, she raised her head slightly and said in a very weak voice, "Then...Ko...Koshe?"

"laugh--"

Angelina's unexpectedly cute performance made Koshei unable to hold back his laughter.

"Well...what do you mean by that?" Angelina turned her head away angrily when she saw Koshei like this. "Mr. Koshei only knows how to bully me. Really, I'm not going to pay any attention to you!"

"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have played tricks on you." Koshei held back his laughter. He put his hands on Anjie's arms and tilted his head slightly to look at her face. "Eh...are you really angry?"

"no!"

Anjie still turned her head away and didn't look at him.

This playfulness, like that of a young couple, attracted an old man sitting in a seat nearby.

He stood up with the help of a cane and another young woman, and walked towards Koshe and Anjie.

"Mr. Bligh?" Koshe noticed the newcomer and asked politely, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Among the guests at this cocktail party were some prominent nobles and wealthy families who had business cooperation with the Cascade family. Koshe had personally handled these matters, so he could basically call the names of everyone here.

"Why, you don't allow an old man like me to come over and say a few words of sympathy?" Old Mr. Bligh seemed a little dissatisfied that Koshe thought he needed help, but then he opened his arms and tried to hug Koshe, "Come here, young man, we haven't seen each other for a long time, so we have become strangers, right?"

Koshe smiled and hugged the old man in a casual manner.

"Sorry, old Mr. Bligh, it's my problem."

Koshe said after the hug.

This Mr. Bligh does have a good relationship with the Cascade family, or more precisely, with the Koshei.

When he was a godson, Koshe had often dealt with Mr. Bligh.

Mr. Bligh is the owner of several antique shops. In Syracuse, a country that places great emphasis on history, legends, and nostalgia, it is inevitable that some people would have evil thoughts about antiques.

And it was because Koshe helped Mr. Bligh recover the stolen antiques that he got to know him.

As a godson, he, like Ulysses, helps others without asking for expensive rewards, only wanting the other party to recognize his friendship.

But Mr. Bligh was a little unconventional. With Koshei's help in maintaining the prestige of the largest antique shop in Syracuse, and given Koshei's status as his godson, he actually wanted to marry his granddaughter, Annata Bligh, to him.

Needless to say, Koshe refused, but this undoubtedly caused some dissatisfaction in Ananta.

Children from wealthy families like this often tend to be overconfident.

Fortunately, in the end, Koshe was unwilling to marry a woman he had never met, so Mr. Bligh gave up this plan.

In the end, he just gave Koshei a hand cannon that was unearthed during archaeological excavations.

But unfortunately, the pistol was completely lost that night in Lapland.

"It's okay. You young people are so forgetful even at young ages. You are not as reliable as an old man like me," Mr. Bligh waved his hand indifferently. He said to his granddaughter who was supporting him, "Anata, take out the things."

"Yes, Grandpa."

Hearing this, Annata took something wrapped tightly in white cloth from the seat where Mr. Bligh had been sitting and handed it to him.

"Here, little one."

Mr. Bligh took the thing and handed it to Koshei.

"This is?"

Koshe was a little confused. He took the thing that was wrapped like a gift and asked.

"Take it apart and take a look. You'll like it."

With Mr. Bligh's consent, Koche untied the knot on the object.

As the layers of white cloth were untied, the contents inside were revealed in front of the people.

It was a walking stick. The cool feel and the delicate carvings on it told Koshei that it was an expensive gift.

"Isn't this... isn't this good, Mr. Bligh?"

Koshe was a little surprised for a moment. He had never received a gift before, let alone a gift that was obviously of high quality.
