Chapter 163 Crisis.
Smellian and Lu Xia did not go home all night.
The next morning, they came out of the hotel.
When they got home, Cecil had not gone out to work yet. Seeing the two of them coming back, Cecil went up to them and whispered, "Sister, you are back. I have put the documents of the trust fund in the study. Sister, you can sign them when you have time."
Unexpectedly, Cecil's work efficiency was quite high. Lu Xia nodded, "Okay, thank you for your trouble."
Lu Xia greeted them first and went upstairs to her room.
Cecil looked at Smellian, "Sister is in a special condition now, Smellian, you'd better not do anything reckless."
Hearing this, Smellian looked at Cecil. For a moment, their roles seemed to have been reversed. In the past, he always worried that Cecil would do something reckless to Lu Xia.
He looked at Cecil and didn't refute. Instead, he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll pay attention next time."
Cecil felt a little blocked in his heart. Smellian always responded to him like this, which made him feel powerless. He turned his head and looked at Smellian who was walking up the stairs: "Do you think I'm childish?"
Smellian stopped and turned to look at him. He didn't understand, Cecil, why are you suddenly unhappy?
"I used to be a little, but now I think you're a little mature."
Smellian didn't admit it directly, but he didn't deny it either. This answer still made Cecil feel neither up nor down, and he was very depressed.
He turned around and said firmly, "I won't always be so childish."
After saying this, Cecil walked away angrily.
The old butler watched Cecil leave, turned to look at Smellian standing on the stairs, and said, "That guy waited for you for a long time last night."
Smellian looked at the old butler and replied with a look of surprise, "Oh, really? No wonder he looked so angry this morning."
After the voice fell, Smellian smiled at the old butler and turned to go upstairs.
The old butler felt that this family seemed peaceful, but in fact there were many secret competitions. At least Cecil was still very jealous, but it was understandable. After all, among the three males around Duke Lu Xia, only Cecil had not gotten anything. It was normal for the child to be jealous.
Lu Xia packed himself up, had lunch at home, and prepared to go to Courtyard No. 2. Smellian thought he would rest at home, but it was obvious that Lu Xia couldn't stay idle.
And he had other things to do today, so he couldn't accompany Lu Xia.
Smellian sent her to the door: "Contact me if you have anything. If I come back early, I will pick you up at Courtyard No. 2."
Lu Xia felt that after the date last night, Smellian seemed to have become a little clingy, but she didn't hate him. She smiled and said, "Okay."
Then she turned and drove away.
On the way to Courtyard No. 2, Lu Xia received a message from Mrs. Dana: "Mrs. Dai Yin and Victoria have arrived at their territory. They will not come back for at least the next 10 years."
Lu Xia didn't expect that the two had arrived at their territory so quickly. Since leaving the palace that day, Lu Xia no longer paid attention to the two.
She replied to Mrs. Dana: "Okay, I know, thank you for telling me."
Just after the message was sent, a black hover car suddenly drove towards her at high speed.
Lu Xia was slightly stunned, and was about to avoid it, when another hover car suddenly appeared behind her and crashed straight into this one. The two hover cars made a loud roar when they collided, and the debris produced by the collision hit Lu Xia's hover car, and smoke rose up for a while.
Lu Xia calmed down and quickly landed the car slowly, but the other two hover cars were not so lucky. When they collided, the suspension system of the hover car had failed and fell directly to the ground.
Lu Xia opened the car door and was about to go over to take a look. Tucker got off another hover car and called her: "Don't go over there, stand there, Your Excellency the Duke."
Lu Xia stopped and looked at Tucker who rushed over: "What's going on? Is anyone okay? Call an ambulance!"
Tucker immediately asked someone to check, and he stayed beside Lu Xia and asked nervously: "Are you okay?"
Lu Xia's hover car has a high protection system. She didn't suffer any injuries just now. She was just a little scared, but this was the lightest injury. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine. Let's go and see how they are." Tucker
nodded: "You can rest in the car for a while, and leave the rest to us."
Lu Xia also knew that she might not be able to help much if she went over, so she didn't insist and turned back to the car. Soon the ambulance arrived.
After the collision, one of the two people died and one was injured. The dead one was the owner of the hover car that suddenly appeared, and the injured one was the owner of the hover car that rushed up from behind and collided.
After the ambulance arrived, the police car also rushed over. Knowing that Duke Lu Xia was involved in this incident, the police station dared not neglect it.
They hurried to apologize to Duke Lu Xia, and said that they would solve the case as soon as possible and would never let Duke Lu Xia suffer any losses. They also specifically proposed to take Duke Lu Xia to the hospital to check if he was injured, but Lu Xia declined.
The matter ended here. Lu Xia watched the two damaged hovercrafts being towed away by the police station and asked Tucker, "The injured one is yours, right?"
Tucker did not hide anything and nodded gently, "You don't have to worry. His beast form is a pangolin, and his defense is relatively high. Even if he is injured, his recovery ability is stronger than that of ordinary people. He will be fine after staying in the hospital for a while, and the medical expenses will naturally be reimbursed. You don't have to worry."
Tucker arranged everything. Lu Xia's heart was inexplicably blocked. He looked at Tucker, "What if you make a wrong judgment and he dies?"
Tucker fell silent after hearing this. In fact, the other party had already made up his mind to die the moment he rushed up. It was a miracle that he survived.
So he couldn't answer this question. All of them were seekers who were walking on the edge of danger. Death was their destiny. But now seeing the little female in front of him with a red face due to anger, Tucker seemed to feel the warmth of being cared for for the first time.
He explained: "No, don't worry. The defense system of the hovercraft we drive is the highest. His beast form is also a high-defense type, so as long as it is not a weapon attack, he will be fine with such a collision."
Lu Xia listened to such an answer, not sure if he was telling the truth, but she still reminded: "Next time you encounter such a thing, think more about yourself."
After she said that, she turned around and opened the car door, then stopped and turned to look at Tucker: "If there is any investigation result on this matter, tell me, and I don't care who reimburses the medical expenses of that person. When he is discharged from the hospital, you should come to the No. 2 hospital together."
Lu Xia said this, got in the car, closed the door and was about to leave, when her terminal vibrated. It was Smellian.
Obviously Tucker had reported the matter to Smellian.
