Catherine is one of the most noble ladies in this world, yet she doesn't put on any airs. Everyone understands this now.
Many people mistakenly take Catherine's aloofness for being "pretentious," but she truly is just cold and indifferent; it has nothing to do with her background. She behaves the sa even when she sees her parents, and probably would with Emperor Roman too.
In this regard, she is quite similar to Xiao Xingshuang. Speaking of which, Xiao Xingshuang and Catherine are really alike: their figures are similar, their coldness alike, and even their appearances are both top-notch.
I wonder how she is doing now. The Watcher's salary in Roman is much higher than dostically, so she must be living quite comfortably.
"When are you leaving?" Liu Chaoyan asked with a smile.
"Where to?" Shen Mochen was slightly taken aback.
"Roman."
"Can you stop eavesdropping all the ti?"
Shen Mochen was angry.
"Classmate Shen Mochen, you seem to misunderstand ," Liu Chaoyan furrowed her delicate brows, "I also have the habit of releasing my superpower usually. As the power continually declines, only with more practice can I control the precision."
Your timing for practicing superpowers is quite precise! Li Zhuangsheng silently retorted in his mind.
…
"I want to go to Roman," Shen Mochen said calmly.
"No," Commander Yan imdiately refused.
"I need to go to Roman for Kajiena's matter; I have to go personally."
"What do you plan to do? Propose? Do you think the Alexandrov Family would agree?"
"It's irrelevant whether they agree or not; I'm just notifying them. But for this matter, I must go personally."
Commander Yan was silent for a long ti: "I thought you weren't that kind of person. I believed you to be rational, soone who knows the importance of priorities."
Shen Mochen looked down and smiled slightly: "I thought so too. But sorry, Commander Yan, I know my responsibilities. The affairs of the world are important, but my personal issues are just as important. I know I'm a bit selfish, but sorry…it's also a notification."
Commander Yan fell silent again, longer this ti: "When do you plan to leave?"
"About a month later."
"Alright…we'll discuss it here and get back to you," Commander Yan lowered his head, "Oh, yes, we recently found out that you seem to have family."
"What?" Shen Mochen was taken aback.
"We have your blood samples. While investigating your background recently, we found that you have relatives in the capital. Whether it's true or not is currently being verified."
"If I didn't mistake it, my father has only as a child. As for my biological mother, only one daughter. And my grandfather has only my father as a son."
"Yes, but your grandfather's origin is unusual. He originally wasn't from your community; based on our investigation, he ca from the capital. For so reason, he fled to Yu Huai City, hid in the community where you lived before, got married, and had children…And he has siblings in the capital who have been looking for him. So, you do have other relatives." Visit My Virtual Library Empire (MV-LEMP-YR) for more.
"Really…" Shen Mochen's eyelids drooped.
"Of course, we are still verifying this information, but there's a high chance it's accurate. We should have a definitive answer within three days."
"My relatives, they're from the capital?" Shen Mochen smiled wryly, "I didn't expect I have such powerful relatives."
"Although surprising, I find it rather normal," Commander Yan gazed at Shen Mochen's face, "With your appearance, it's no surprise that noble blood runs in your veins."
"So, they're quite impressive, right?" Shen Mochen said.
"The Capital Shen Family," Commander Yan smiled, "A millennia-old family."
"That impressive?" Shen Mochen's tone inadvertently turned sowhat flippant.
"You don't quite believe it?" Commander Yan smiled wryly, "We aren't foolish enough to use an obvious fake bait to deceive you. I ntioned before, after your big disturbance at Guanghai Manor, it was the Shen Family who ca out to protect you first thing."
Commander Yan spoke with such straightforwardness that Shen Mochen fell silent: "My grandfather…did indeed co from outside. But in our area, it's a lting pot, and no one cared where my grandfather ca from. If he's from the capital's aristocratic family, then why did he mingle in the slums?"
He had never t his grandfather, only occasionally heard people ntion him—rumored to be a fierce and aggressive man. But he died early, leaving no photographs, and now, few people even rember him. After all, the life expectancy in the slum is pitifully short.
"It might be related to the internal power struggle within the family," Commander Yan shrugged, "I don't know for sure, still figuring it out. But if you really are a Shen Family mber, you'll hit the jackpot; the Shen Family is a colossal presence in the entire Yupi, aiming to be the top three or five. If the Shen Family considers you as an heir, even the Alexandrov Family would have to acknowledge your proposal."
"If I am part of the Shen Family, would they agree to being with Kajiena?"
"No, they wouldn't marry their primary heir to a foreigner, even if you join the family…of course, if they knew your value, perhaps they'd agree," Commander Yan said, then smiled again, "But as you said, you didn't exactly expect them to agree, just went to notify them."
"The specific situation will be confird in three days?"
"More or less. The matter is quite significant; we naturally need to verify it thoroughly," Commander Yan smiled wryly again, "Initially, I wanted to inform you after everything was certain. Who knew you'd co today…"
"I apologize for the trouble," Shen Mochen said.
"No worries, your importance is much higher than mine as a commander."
"But I have never truly served the country."
"I believe you won't make us wait too long," Commander Yan said as he stood up, "Oh, by the way, I heard, you and team mber Han Muxue broke up?"
"To be precise, I was dumped."
"In that case, you wouldn't mind restoring so of my power for , would you?" Commander Yan removed her glasses, staring intently at Shen Mochen.
"With pleasure."
Shen Mochen wrapped his arms around Commander Yan's waist, gently kissed her lips. Not only did he restore so of her power, but he also temporarily boosted it to its peak state.
Of course, Li Zhuangsheng also followed suit, copying the abilities of the forr Transcendent. After all, heading to an unfamiliar environnt in a month, it's better to have more hidden cards.
"Thank you." Commander Yan licked her lips lightly, putting her glasses back on.
"No thanks necessary, it's what I should do," Shen Mochen replied humbly with a smile, "Oh right, about Han Muxue, I'll leave it to you to handle."
"No problem, I trust her capabilities."
