Chapter 31: Change.

With Lu Xia's initiative, the hospital would not block Grace's stay or leave, and would quickly complete the discharge procedures.

There was no need to notify Duke Leslie during the entire process.

For Grace, who had become Lu Xia's servant, his life and death had already belonged to Lu Xia since the day their relationship was confirmed.

If Lu Xia had given up on treating Grace at the doctor's persuasion, it would have been feasible, and no one would have raised any objections.

In their view, Grace was a toy that had lost its value and did not need treatment, and there were many toys like him, so if it broke, just throw it away and replace it with another one, and it was not worth it for Lu Xia, the owner, to spend so much time on it.

Even many people in the hospital did not understand why Lu Xia insisted on discharging Grace.

Did he want this person to die at home?

In their view, Grace could not survive.

The hospital had a special car to take Grace home, and Lu Xia did not need to worry about it.

The old housekeeper helped Lu Xia back to the car and couldn't help but say: "Although it happened suddenly, don't worry too much. Your health is more important now."

Lu Xia nodded, knowing that the old housekeeper said this with good intentions. After all, she is not alone now and has a child in her belly.

In fact, it is not that difficult for her to accept the fact that Grace was injured. She just can't accept the attitude of those people towards Grace.

Although she knows that their attitude is the norm in this world, she still feels complicated.

After returning home, Lu Xia asked someone to put Grace in his original room. Looking at the man lying on the bed and falling into a coma, Lu Xia untied the man's clothes after everyone left and checked the wound on his chest.

The wound can clearly see the traces of sutures, but the strange thing is that at the suture of the wound,

where , there are actually sporadic black scale-like substances.

Lu Xia put on gloves and took a closer look and found that it was indeed scales.

So what kind of creature did Grace's genes fuse with, a snake?

Thinking of this, Lu Xia didn't waste any time. After feeding Grace a small cup of spiritual spring water, she contacted Duke Leslie and asked about Grace's medical records of gene fusion.

Duke Leslie was surprised for a moment when he heard that Grace was injured during the mission, and then he said, "This is all

Grace 's fate. You don't have to think too much. Even without him, the relationship between our two families will not change."

Seeing that Duke Leslie was eager to express his position, even though Lu Xia was prepared, she still felt sad for Grace for a moment: "Your Excellency the Duke, Grace's condition is still stable. Maybe he can get better. You don't have to give up on him so quickly. Send me his previous medical records as soon as possible, or give me the contact information of the doctor who performed the gene fusion surgery on him before. I'll wait for your news."

This time she didn't say much to Duke Leslie. After explaining her purpose, she cut off the communication.

When she turned off the terminal and turned around to check on Grace again, she found that she had woken up without knowing when.

The two looked at each other, and the man's eyes were still calm.

Lu Xia did not show much surprise, but just asked: "How do you feel?"

Grace was about to get up when she heard the voice, but Lu Xia pressed her shoulder with his fingers: "Lie down."

"You brought me back?" This question didn't need to be asked, because if Lu Xia didn't want to, no one could send him back, but at this moment he still wanted to hear Lu Xia's answer in person.

"Well, the hospital notified me, and your military leader was there when I rushed over."

"What did the doctor say? Am I not well? If you feel embarrassed, you can just give up on me." Although he didn't know how serious his injuries were, he could feel a strange energy in his body, always wanting to vent.

This was very abnormal.

"The doctor said that you are now suffering from a genetic disorder, which is a sequelae left by the previous gene fusion drug. If it is serious, it will escalate to a genetic collapse. It did suggest that I give up on you, but I thought that you and I have been together for a while, and it is not to the point where you can't be saved. What's more, your situation is quite valuable for research, so I brought you back. I just contacted your mother and asked her for your previous gene fusion medical records. Are you willing to let me study it?"

Lu Xia said very straightforwardly, without hiding the purpose of bringing him back.

But to Grace, all these were excuses for the little female to bring him back. She said so much just to reassure him.

Why is there such a gentle, kind, and soft-hearted female in this world?

"Thank you, I am willing to do so. I will cooperate with whatever you need me to do." If Lu Xia needs it, even if there is only a little value left in the last period of time, he will dedicate himself to her without reservation.

"I need to collect some samples from you for testing."

"Okay." Grace responded without any hesitation, as if she didn't care at all what experiment Lu Xia was going to do with these samples.

Lu Xia found some clean test tubes and put the collected black scale-like substances into them. After finishing these, she looked at Grace and said, "You have a good rest. I will ask the housekeeper to arrange your meals. Don't move around. I will come to see you again."

After leaving these words, Lu Xia left. She had just received the medical records from Duke Leslie about Grace's gene fusion.

When she came to the study and opened the medical records, she saw at first glance that the fusion material was the black dragon gene X1.90.

Black dragon gene?

Are there really dragons in this world?

Lu Xia couldn't believe it. Now she was even more curious about Grace. Could it be understood that if Grace's gene fusion was successful, she would have a chance to transform into a dragon?

Just thinking about it, Lu Xia was very interested in it.

It seemed that her No. 2 Courtyard could be officially opened.

At this moment, Grace, who was lying on the bed, was not feeling well. It felt like there was a fire burning in his body, and it seemed that something was growing. His mind was even more confused, as if he would faint at any time. However, there was a very strong vitality healing him, always able to pull him back to reality when he was about to fall into madness.

The injured part was burning, and something grew out of the wound. Grace subconsciously reached out to touch it, and the touch was a hard scale. As his fingertips touched it, he could even hear a rustling sound.

He struggled to get up to see. Even in the dim light, he could still see clearly that a black scale had grown from the wound on his chest, and it was glowing in the dim light.
