"Miss Katherine, today's banquet was specially prepared by General Sutton for the distinguished guests of China. As your fiance, I will naturally attend. Moreover, you also wanted to personally thank Mr. Chen for curing your strange illness." Moixero immediately smiled and nodded towards Chen Shen to show his friendliness.
"So it turns out that Catherine has a fiance now …" Chen Shen sighed, showing his pity.
When the crazy girl Tong Lele heard that this person was actually Catherine's fiancé, she also quietly whispered to Shen Aoxin, "Sister Aoxin, this time you don't have to worry that your brother-in-law will be snatched away!"
Shen Aoxin was speechless, thinking that why would this crazy girl say anything, and immediately drag her away, afraid that others would hear, and cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
Seeing that, Zhou Rui and Wu Lan followed over.
Catherine's beautiful face was immediately covered by a layer of dark cloud, she glared at Moixero unhappily, as though she extremely detested this man who claimed that he was her fiance.
"Moixero, I'm warning you not to spout nonsense. I'm not your fiancee! I still have to entertain my friends. If you have nothing else to do, then please leave! "
General Sutton was present, and was afraid that he would lose his identity, so he pretended to be stern: "Catherine, I invited Moixero over. With this esteemed guest here today, you shouldn't have such a temper!"
Catherine was a young miss who lived up to her name, and naturally understood what she was doing. She rolled her eyes at Moixero, and simply turned her face to look elsewhere.
However, not only did Moixero not show any displeasure in response to Catherine's cold movements, instead, he had an expression of complete indifference, and his handsome, foreign face had an enchanting smile the entire time.
"General Sutton is too serious, there might be a small misunderstanding between me and Miss Katherine, I just need to explain myself." With that, Moixero turned to Chen Shen and smiled: "I have long heard of Mr. Chen's medical skills, and have always wanted to go to Hua Xia to thank you personally for curing my fiancee's strange illness, but because I'm too busy, I really can't spare the time, I hope Mr. Chen doesn't mind."
"No need to be so courteous, treating and saving people is just my duty as a doctor, furthermore, Catherine's disease is not considered a serious disease, it's just a small matter."
"Mr. Chen sure knows how to joke around. The strange sickness that Miss Katherine has is something that not even the authoritative experts of S Nation can treat. How can it not be considered a serious illness? However, to be able to cure this strange disease, it is enough to prove that Mr. Chen is an extraordinary doctor. "
Speaking of treating Catherine, Chen Shen suddenly thought of one thing, and that was the little fluffy needle that caused her disease.
"Hoho, actually Catherine's body was fine in the first place, but she had her blood sealed inside her chest with a small needle made from a special material, which caused him to feel uncomfortable. Previously, I was far from being convenient in China, but now that I have come to [S] country, I might as well help General Sutton find the culprit. "
"That's great. With your help, I'm not afraid of not being able to find this murderer!" The General Sutton knew of Chen Shen's identity, and completely trusted him.
In fact, when Catherine returned to the [S] country, she informed the General Sutton of the details. The General Sutton was very furious about this, and immediately sent people to capture his friend, the Witch Doctor from Beiyuan Kingdom.
However, what was strange was that this person seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth. Most likely, he had received the news beforehand and escaped the moment the matter was exposed.
Hearing that, Moixero frowned, but his expression was not very obvious, and no one noticed.
"This person who placed the needle on Miss Katherine is really malicious, he actually dares to scheme and kill Miss Katherine, he really doesn't put General Sutton in his eyes!" Moixero seemed to be extremely angry as he calmed himself down and continued to speak: "I am truly sorry, but I was too agitated just now. In order to express my gratitude and apology, I will prepare a feast at home in a few days.
Without waiting for Chen Shen to reply, Catherine impatiently interrupted: "Moixero, Mr. Chen is my savior, I will naturally receive you. Since your sincerity has been reached, you can leave now. "
Moixero tactfully nodded: "Then I won't disturb the interest of Miss Katherine and your friends anymore. I'll come back to visit again in a few days."
Finished, he waved goodbye to General Sutton, Chen Shen and the rest. But the moment he turned around, the smile on his face immediately disappeared and was replaced with a sinister look.
"Eh!" This kid sure knows how to act! " Chen Shen's sharp eyes immediately caught hold of Moixero's subtle changes, as a dense thing appeared in his mind.
After Moixero left, Shen Aoxin and the others gathered around again. Seeing that Catherine was unhappy, Tong Lele asked curiously: "Miss Katherine, are you and your fiance at odds?"
Shen Aoxin immediately pulled at the corner of her clothes and shook her head, reminding her not to speak carelessly.
However, since Catherine was from a well-known clan, she naturally would not mind Tong Lele's direct question, but at this moment, the only thing she cared about was Chen Shen's reaction, so she immediately explained, "You all mustn't misunderstand, that person was basically not my fiancé, and his family only made an oral agreement with my father, we have never held any engagement ceremony before …"
As Catherine explained, she secretly observed Chen Shen's expression.
"There's a saying in China that is called 'Father's orders', and it seems like this Moixero fellow is not bad. Catherine, you don't have to worry about it, don't make things difficult for your father." Chen Shen joked, and then looked at Shen Aoxin, revealing a vulgar smile.
Shen Aoxin glanced at him and ignored him.
"No, I already have …" Catherine wanted to say something but stopped. She looked excited, then realizing what she was doing, she lowered her head in embarrassment.
Seeing her daughter's shy look, General Sutton smiled knowingly and stepped in to smooth things over. He no longer bothered with this topic: "Shi Loong, stop teasing my daughter. "I will now bring everyone to get to know my business partners. In the future, they will also be of help to your Guohong …"
This welcoming banquet lasted for approximately three hours. After it ended, General Sutton called Chen Shen alone to the living room and sent off all the servants, as if he wanted to discuss something important with him.
Meanwhile, Shen Aoxin and the others followed Catherine to her room …
General Sutton sat on the sofa in the living room with a serious expression. His strong and tall body coupled with his imposing aura made people feel respect.
"Shi Loong, what do you think of the Witch Doctor who murdered Catherine?"
Chen Shen solemnly nodded his head: "From the results of my diagnosis and Catherine's description, the little furry needle buried in her heart should be the work of this witch doctor. However, a mere Novice Magus would not have the guts to go against you. I'm guessing that someone must be behind this. "
"You're right!" "Unfortunately, the people I sent haven't found his hiding place. If we can capture him, then perhaps we will know who is the mastermind behind this. If they dare to kill my daughter, then I will definitely let them know the consequences of offending me." The General Sutton doted on Catherine very much. If anyone dared to have ill intentions towards Catherine, no matter who the other party was, he would unhesitatingly send out the twenty odd special forces beside him and mercilessly beat the person into a sieve. Then, he would chop them into pieces and feed them to the dogs!
But with regards to this matter, Chen Shen didn't dare make a final judgement right now. After all, the General Sutton was an influential figure in the S Nation. There were plenty of people who wanted to pull him down and there were also a few enemies.
However, the mastermind didn't let the Witch Doctor take Catherine's life, so there should be other reasons as well, and their motives wouldn't be hard to guess …
After thinking for a while, Chen Shen confirmed his guess and said confidently: "Given this Witch Doctor's level, taking Catherine's life is as easy as pie, but they did not do so. I think it should be because no one can cure Catherine's mental state, so that they can use her to coerce you and help them. To their surprise, I cured her of her illness. In my estimation, they definitely will not give up and wait for an opportunity to take action. "
"Mm …" "Then what should we do now?"
Chen Shen laughed coldly, "General Sutton only needs to wait patiently. Now, as the doctor who cured Catherine's serious illness, I have been invited to be a guest in the S Nation. I indirectly destroyed their plans, so they would definitely start with me. When their fox tails show, I can easily pull out their backers and tell them what to do with them. It will depend on you, General Sutton. "
General Sutton suddenly realized something, and his expression became much clearer: "With you here, we can catch the murderer who plotted against Catherine, and it won't be long! "If you need anything, just ask. It doesn't matter if I lend you my army!"
"Haha, there's no need for that. I'm enough by myself …"
Chen Shen explained his strategy to General Sutton, and after hearing his suggestions, General Sutton was overjoyed, and he was quite satisfied.
Soon after, the two began to chat again. At this time, Chen Shen suddenly thought of the man who was good at camouflage and claimed that he was Catherine's fiance, thus he became interested. With a playful look on his face, he asked: "General Sutton, the man who greeted Moixero today, what is his background?"
General Sutton lit up a cigar and took a few puffs. He could not help but look at Chen Shen in astonishment. "Why did you ask about him?"
"I'm just curious about what kind of person Catherine's fiancé is. To be able to get close to the General Sutton, his status must definitely not be ordinary."
Although the General Sutton was several rounds older than Chen Shen, he was straightforward and open, and did not care about seniority. From the beginning to the end, he treated this old friend of his as a good friend, and there was nothing to hide.
"I never thought that Shi Loong would still have someone curious, but it's nothing much. Moixero's family has a lot of reputation and influence in the [S] country. They also have a lot of power in the political world and the business world. As for this Moixero, he could be considered an outstanding talent. Ever since he took over the family business, his business had grown. Moixero and I both wish that he and Catherine can stay together with us, so that we can consolidate our two families' position in the S Nation. "
Chen Shen's face revealed a sinister smile, and said straightforwardly: "But I can see that Catherine seems to have a bad impression of him, being forceful is not sweet at all. General Sutton will think about it more, no matter what, this is still your daughter's lifelong happiness, ah …"
