Chapter 12 tells.
Ke Fei, who seemed to have lost all his strength, was lying on the ground, looking at the blue sky. In his ears, there were extremely noisy discussions even if the voices were lowered.
He didn't need to listen carefully, and he knew very well what they were talking about at the moment!
It was nothing more than that he lost!
Yes, he lost!
He claimed to be a gene fusionist, but he lost to Grace, a "defective product" that he looked down upon. How could this not make people talk about it? If it were him, he would also talk loudly about the incredibleness of it
. He thought that Grace should be very happy. He defeated him. He defeated him as a gene fusionist. This is definitely something worth showing off and praising.
Ke Fei felt that his world had become gray, and what awaited him would be endless ridicule.
However, Grace ignored him, and after winning, she walked up to Lu Xia and said, "I won."
His tone was calm and his expression looked very natural, but Lu Xia inexplicably felt that the person in front of him was seeking praise with the calmest attitude.
"Well, very impressive!" After Lu Xia said this, she turned her head to look at Ke Fei who was still lying on the ground, and said, "Sir, don't forget the previous agreement."
She suddenly spoke, and the voices of original discussions stopped abruptly. Soon many people began to discuss curiously again -
"What agreement?"
"What don't we know?"
...
Just as everyone was asking around about what the agreement was, Colonel Ke Fei, who was lying on the ground, got up. He didn't turn around, but spoke with a sad voice: "Although I lost, I will not break my promise, let alone violate the agreement!"
At this point, he suddenly took a deep breath in front of everyone, and then: "I'm a fool, I'm a fool, I'm a fool..."
The onlookers: "..."
Grace glanced at the commotion on the playground, and quickly focused her attention on Lu Xia: "You came to see me today, is there something wrong?"
Lu Xia, who was watching the show with great interest, raised her eyes and looked at Grace when she heard the words: "I went to the hospital today, and came to see you on the way."
When she said this, the old housekeeper stood quietly aside, pretending that he did not exist.
But the sheep ears on his head were already standing up high.
Grace quickly got the key point of Lu Xia's words: "Are you feeling unwell?"
Lu Xia looked at him meaningfully: "No, I just need to confirm some things."
"What is it, can I know?" Grace had a feeling that Lu Xia might have come for this matter.
For some reason, he was a little nervous at this moment.
He was not nervous when he fought with Ke Fei just now.
Now facing Lu Xia, he became nervous instead.
Lu Xia did not seem to feel his emotional fluctuations, but turned his attention back to Ke Fei who was shouting "I'm a fool", and asked a question: "Do you like children?"
The sudden question made Grace's face startled. Obviously, he thought of many possibilities, but he did not expect Lu Xia to ask such a question.
"No." In fact, he had never thought about this question, because fertility was a problem in the entire empire, not to mention the difficulty of fertility for gene fusion people, and it was impossible for him, a "defective product", to have offspring, so he had never considered whether he liked it or not. Even if he liked it, what would it matter? He was destined to have no offspring of his own in this life.
So he didn't understand why Lu Xia asked him such a question. Did Duke Lu Xia want a child?
Realizing this possibility, Grace's heart trembled.
Lu Xia felt the man's nervousness this time, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips: "I'm pregnant, the child is yours."
She said this in a low voice, but it was loud enough for Grace to hear.
As the voice fell, she clearly saw the man's pupils suddenly shrink, and then she saw the man who had always been indifferent, and then she saw that he couldn't hide his shock on his face.
Lu Xia was very satisfied with the shock he showed. He smiled at him and continued: "The doctor has checked it and it won't be wrong."
"I don't doubt it, I just... I just didn't expect it." Grace lowered his head and responded softly. He looked
panicked, but he had to force himself to calm down.
But it was a bit difficult, because his brain was constantly repeating Lu Xia's
words
The child is his!
He is going to be a male father?
How is this possible?
"I came here to tell you this news today. It's okay, you continue to work, I'm going back." Lu Xia appreciated Grace's expression enough and prepared to leave with satisfaction. She knew very well that this news should be enough for Grace to digest for a long time.
Grace hadn't calmed down yet. Suddenly, she heard Lu Xia was leaving, but she still instinctively said, "I'll take you there."
"No need. Go ahead." Lu Xia waved his hand and left with the old housekeeper.
Grace, who was left there, couldn't calm down for a long time. She was even stimulated by the news and her eyes were red.
When others saw Lu Xia leave, they couldn't help but get in front of Grace out of curiosity: "Grace, I really underestimated you. You actually beat Ke Fei. Now Ke Fei should behave himself!"
"Colonel Grace, your mistress has gone back. What's the matter with her coming to see you?"
Just when everyone couldn't suppress their curiosity and asked questions, Grace waved everyone away and left quickly. He wanted to find a place to calm down first.
Everyone watched him leave, all of them confused, looking at each other in surprise: "What's going on? Why do I feel that Grace is unhappy after winning against Kefei?"
"Just now I saw his eyes were red, is Duke Lu Xia not satisfied with the result?"
"No way, if he was not satisfied with the result, why would he defend Colonel Grace before?"
"Humph, females are hard to figure out, who knows what they are thinking, I think Grace is not easy, let him be quiet, don't disturb him."
Hearing this sentence suddenly, several people present were speechless, isn't Grace not easy?
Duke Lu Xia came to see him in person, and defended Grace in front of them. Isn't it Colonel Kefei who is still shouting "I am a fool" who is miserable now?
Put yourself in his shoes, if they were Colonel Kefei, they should buy a boat ticket after leaving the First Military Region, and they might
not be able to stay in this imperial star for a moment.
However, Grace was no longer interested in Kefei at this time. He was full of Lu Xia's pregnancy. When he returned to the office, his mood had calmed down a little.
He was even more fully aware of what secret Lu Xia had told him.
If what Duke Lu Xia said was true, then wouldn't Duke Lu Xia be the first female in the empire to successfully conceive naturally in the past few hundred years?
