Lu Xia, possessing healing spirit spring abilities, transmigrated to a futuristic beastman era where females were revered and males were lowly. Upon arrival, she gained five male consorts, who knel...
Chapter 116 Exclusion.
The old butler seemed not to notice the shock on Cecil's face. He led the way in front of him, looking calm and composed, as if this kind of thing was not surprising in this family.
Cecil took a long time to calm down and asked, "What is Smellian's current status?"
The old butler had stopped in front of a room at this time: "Smellian is still a husband's servant."
Hearing this, Cecil seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief. If Smellian was also promoted, he would really be upset.
However, the old butler's next sentence still made his heart, which had just settled down, rise again: "But Smellian is now also a gene fusionist, and promotion is only a matter of time. Madam will not treat those who are sincere to her badly. This is the room prepared for you. It is cleaned every day. If you need anything, just tell me."
The old butler pushed the door open but did not go in. Instead, he stood at the door, as if waiting for Cecil to check.
Cecil was so shocked by the conversation with the old butler that he couldn't think of anything else. Besides, the room looked well-equipped and had everything. Cecil looked back and said to the old butler, "I'll find you if I need anything."
"Well, I wish you a happy life here. I'll have someone call you at dinner time." The old butler was very sensible. Since Duke Lu Xia allowed Cecil to live in his house, he would not do anything to embarrass him and would treat him equally.
Anyway, there are two people like Cecil outside, but I don't know when they will show up.
But to be on the safe side, the old butler prepared two rooms in advance in case of emergency.
After the old butler left, Cecil calmed down in the room for a long time. In fact, the old butler was right. He came back at this time because he heard that Duke Lu Xia was going to hold an open banquet for Grace. According to the relationship between Lu Xia and Lady Dana, his mother would definitely attend.
If she didn't see him, she would definitely take him home and teach him a lesson.
In fact, as the male son of Lady Dana, although he is a defective product, his life is not so difficult compared to others. At least his brothers and sisters at home ignore him and rarely pay attention to him.
Apart from some cold violence, he has not suffered any physical injuries.
What's more, he left home early and lived alone. As a member of the royal family, even if he is a defective product, he has a certain economic foundation, not to mention that he is quite talented in business.
The biggest hurdle in life should be being sent to Duke Luxia by Lady Dana to become a husband, but there is actually no way. Whether it is him or other defective males, they can't escape this fate. The only difference is that it's not Luxia but others.
Now, judging from Grace and Smelian, the return rate of following Duke Luxia is still quite high.
Now, there is still a certain gap between rumors and reality.
Cecil did not regret saying those words to Duke Lu Xia. Even if he envied the changes in Grace and Smellian, it did not mean that he had to curry favor with Duke Lu Xia. He did not want to be the kind of male without personality and self-esteem!
After comforting himself in this way, Cecil felt that his mood was much smoother, but he still couldn't help wondering when the gene fusion preparation would be on the market. When it was on the market, he would definitely buy a few!
By then, he would also be a gene fusionist. There was nothing to envy, anyway, he had money!
I don't know what Cecil was thinking secretly in the room. Lu Xia didn't take his return to heart.
The public banquet was about to be held, and the clothes she customized for the family members were delivered one after another. Grace and Smellian had them, but of course there was no one for Cecil.
It was not intentional, but mainly because she didn't know he would come back before.
However, Lu Xia still asked the old butler to ask Cecil if he needed their help in preparing a dress, but Cecil declined.
Cecil didn't think much about it at the time, but when the banquet was held, he was shocked to see Grace and Smelian wearing dresses of similar colors and styles to Lu Xia, but he was excluded.
Especially the look in Mrs. Dana's eyes, even if she didn't say anything, silence was more powerful than words at this time.
Without asking more, he knew what Mrs. Dana wanted to express: "Why are your clothes different from theirs?"
He really couldn't answer!
Why? It's normal that he didn't live here before and they didn't prepare it for him.
Now thinking back, the old butler came to ask him about the dress, probably for the sake of being thorough.
He really couldn't find any fault with it.
Mrs. Dana originally thought that Cecil had lived here for a while, and even if his relationship with Lu Xia was not as good as Grace's, his treatment with Smelian should be similar. As a result, when she saw it today, huh, it was not the case at all!
On the way to the lounge, she called Cecil to her: "You tell me what happened, or should I ask Duke Luxia?"
Cecil touched his nose: "I was wrong, mother. I won't do this again. I will live here well and have
a good relationship with Master Lu and the female master."
He always admits his mistakes quickly and never insists on suffering a loss.
Madam Dana stared at him for a long time: "You'd better do this. Duke Luxia will not treat anyone harshly. You were excluded today because of your own fault. You don't have the advantage of Grace, so you can't beat Smelian?"
Thinking of this, Madam Dana became more and more angry and said: "The last time we met, Smelian could only stand aside, but now he can stand beside Duke Luxia. This time is the public banquet for the head husband, so next time, will he have to attend the public banquet for Smelian's concubine husband? Do you want to be a husband's servant for the rest of your life?"
Cecil lowered his head with an inexplicable expression. Although he was unwilling to admit it, Madam Dana's words were indeed the truth.
Grace can change from a husband-servant to a head-husband, so Smellian also has the opportunity to change from a husband-servant
to a concubine-husband. There can only be one head-husband, but there can be many concubines, so he is not without the opportunity. "Okay, stop being an eyesore here, go to the front and help entertain the guests." If Cecil had not had the opportunity to stand next to Duke Lu Xia now, she would not bother to say this to him.
There are so many people outside who want to pay for Duke Lu Xia, and Cecil has no idea what she has gained.
She even couldn't help but wonder if she should learn from other families with many children and have competition at home, so that they will develop a sense of competition.
Although Cecil is a defective male, no one at home will really bully him, which has led to this kind of character. His self-esteem is much stronger than others. Of course, there is nothing wrong with being a member of the royal family, but now he is just a husband-servant. How can he stand out without fighting or competing!
