Chapter 99 Reward.
But isn't this also a kind of scheming?
Smellian has been in Duke Lu Xia's mansion for such a long time, and he has always been in a bystander's perspective to watch Grace and Duke Lu Xia get along. It is impossible to say that he has not seen or learned anything from it.
He has long seen through that Lu Xia is a soft-hearted person who will sympathize with the weak and be soft-hearted.
So he humbly pleaded and carefully analyzed himself, just to make Lu Xia soften his heart and focus his attention on him.
Facts have proved that this trick is effective.
He doesn't think there is anything bad about doing this. Males are born with bad natures and greed. If there has been no opportunity, it would be fine. Now that there is an opportunity, how can he not fight or grab it?
What's more, Lu Xia is such a good female. No one can refuse the opportunity to stay with her.
He even thought meanly, what if he can't compare to Grace, at least others haven't seen the good of Lu Xia.
So what if Cecil is a member of the royal family? He still missed the opportunity to stay with Duke Lu Xia. He even hoped that he would never find out.
But he wanted to see a regretful and lonely expression on his face.
Lu Xia looked at Smellian, whose eyes were slightly red, and sighed slightly: "I will consider your request, Smellian, and I will see you more in the future."
But for favors, she felt that she still needed time.
"Okay, it's good this way, thank you, Xia Xia." Smellian knew very well that it was impossible for Lu Xia to agree all at once.
If Lu Xia was really like the rumors, he might have been pulled to bed by Duke Lu Xia on the first day he appeared, so why wait until now.
Now Lu Xia promised him that she would see him more and would no longer ignore his existence, which was a big improvement for him.
He was very happy.
"Then why don't you get up?" Looking at Smellian who was still kneeling in front of her, Lu Xia raised her eyebrows.
Smelian hesitated, but finally couldn't stop his greed and asked: "Can you hug me?"
This request was not difficult for Lu Xia to accept. She just didn't expect Smelian to be so cautious even when asking for a hug, which was a bit cute.
"Okay."
She said, and took the initiative to hug Smelian.
The moment Smelian was hugged by the little female, his breath was filled with the unique smell of Lu Xia, which made him greedy.
He carefully held Lu Xia in his arms, as if she was a rare treasure in the world.
He wanted a lot, but he also knew that he had gained a lot so far and couldn't continue to be greedy.
"Xia Xia, thank you." Smelian said, and took the initiative to let go of her hand, "Everything that happened tonight, I will remember it in my heart."
Lu Xia smiled and said, "I am very happy today, thank you for the dinner."
Although happiness is short-lived, if possible, Smelian hopes that this moment will never end, but at the same time, he also looks forward to Lu Xia's change in his attitude towards him in the future.
He believes that with this date alone, Lu Xia should treat him differently than before.
When we came out of the restaurant, it started to drizzle outside.
The drizzle added a special flavor to the peaceful night.
"I'll go get an umbrella. Please wait here for me."
"No, it's not far. I'll go with you." Lu Xia was not a hypocritical person. Besides, the parking lot was not far from them, and the rain was not heavy. It was no problem to go directly there. There was no need for Smelian to make a special trip.
Smelian hesitated for a moment, took off his coat, and held it above Lu Xia's head: "You still have to cover yourself up. It's cold at night. Don't catch a cold."
Seeing that he was so considerate, Lu Xia did not refuse. She took the coat and draped it over her head: "Okay, let's go."
After she said that, she took Smelian's arm and walked towards the parking lot with him.
The journey was not very far, but Smelian enjoyed it very much, as if at this moment, there were only him and Lu Xia left in the world.
He suddenly felt that this moment might be a reward for him!
After arriving at the parking lot, Smelian opened the car door and helped Lu Xia get in. Then he took his clothes again and sat next to Lu Xia with a smile.
When the car door was closed, the sound of rain disappeared, and the car was silent. Smelian took the initiative to break the silence: "Are you tired?"
Lu Xia shook her head: "I'm not tired, I had a great time tonight, thank you Smelian, I haven't felt so relaxed for a long time."
After Lu Xia finished speaking, she moved closer to Smelian and looked at him with a smile .
This sudden move made Smelian nervous for a moment, not sure what Lu Xia wanted to do when he suddenly approached her, so he subconsciously held his breath.
The temperature in the car seemed to start to rise.
It was raining outside, but no sound came in.
The atmosphere in the car became ambiguous, and Smelian couldn't help but ask: "You, what's wrong?"
Lu Xia felt that Smelian was very well-behaved at this time, completely different from the feeling that Grace gave her. Even when Grace was humble, she was full of wild arrogance. She would not be soft-hearted because of Grace's begging. She just didn't want to see someone as powerful as Grace being so humble, and she would feel distressed.
Smelian's humility was gentle and harmless, like a small animal begging for food, which could easily make people soft-hearted.
Lu Xia did not answer Smelian's question, but curled the corners of his lips, stretched out his hand to pinch Smelian's chin, and kissed him on the face while the man was full of confusion and astonishment, then smiled and pulled away: "Reward."
Smelian's breathing became heavier, and he subconsciously grasped Lu Xia's wrist as he left, as if he wanted to keep him.
Lu Xia did not break free of his hand, and still looked at him with a smile.
As if waiting for his next response.
When Smelian spoke, his voice was a little hoarse: "Then should I express my gratitude as well?"
Obviously, his learning ability is not bad, and he is even very smart. He knows how to draw inferences from one example, and he knows how to be grateful.
Lu Xia seemed to be intrigued and asked him, "How do you want to thank me?"
After making sure that Lu Xia didn't hate him for doing this, Smelian leaned over and gently kissed her on the face: "Return the favor."
Lu Xia was amused by his cautious behavior. She reached out and gently stroked Smelian's face, smiling and said, "I thought you would be greedy."
But she turned out to be as pure as a baby.
"Smelian, I find you a little cute. This is good. Please keep it up."
Lu Xia did not hesitate to express his thoughts. For Smelian, this was the best reward.
He smiled and nodded: "It is my honor to make you happy. I will do my best to not let you down."
