Chapter 32 Escape.
The next day, Lu Xia took the things to the laboratory. The test results showed that the material taken from Grace was indeed scales, and it did contain the Black Dragon X1.90 gene.
In other words, through this accidental injury, the gene fusion agent that Grace had been injected with was activated.
Lu Xia couldn't help but wonder if this would be an opportunity to help Grace transform?
Once this idea came up, Lu Xia couldn't help but get excited.
But unfortunately, Grace couldn't be dissected to see what was going on inside.
Thinking of this with a little regret, Lu Xia decided to bring Grace to the research institute for a comprehensive physical examination.
Coming out of the laboratory, the old housekeeper clearly felt Duke Lu Xia's good mood. Although he didn't know where her good mood came from, he felt relieved when he saw that she was not heartbroken for a "defective" male.
In his opinion, Grace was good, but after all, she was just a "defective" male. If it was broken, it was broken.
Fortunately, Duke Lu Xia didn't feel sad for such a male.
"I'm going to build Courtyard No. 2 according to the standards of Courtyard No. 1. You go and make the arrangements. It's better to be quick. I need it urgently."
Hearing this, the old housekeeper was not as surprised as the first time. So habits are really terrible.
After arranging the old housekeeper, Lu Xia returned home, changed her clothes, and went to see Grace as soon as possible. By the way, she also prepared a glass of spiritual spring water for him.
When she came in, Grace was leaning against the head of the bed, quietly flipping through a book. If it weren't for his pale face, it would be almost impossible to see that he had any injuries on his body.
The embarrassment he had yesterday was gone, and he cleaned himself up very cleanly.
Lu Xia put the water cup on the table: "How do you feel today?"
When he saw her, Grace put down the book in his hand and looked at her seriously: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
This was obviously a statement of good news but not bad news.
Lu Xia did not dwell on this question, but said: "Undress, let me see your wound."
After the words fell, Lu Xia clearly felt Grace's body stiffen, and then he pretended to be natural and said: "It's not good to look at, can you please not look at it?"
The man lowered his head, his expression a little depressed.
Lu Xia did not give him a chance to escape: "Didn't we agree yesterday that you would be my research subject? Are you regretting it now?"
"No, I didn't, I just..." Grace met Lu Xia's black eyes and stopped abruptly, because he saw the seriousness in the eyes of the little female.
Pursing the corners of his lips, the man did not continue, but raised his hand to unbutton his shirt.
Lu Xia's eyes moved down with the man's unbuttoning hand. The sutured wound seen yesterday had a few scales, and a piece of black, hard-looking scales grew from
a few scales, extending all the way to the collarbone. It was like a big hand clasped on the man's chest, which looked a bit hideous.
Grace had been carefully observing Lu Xia's expression, and he didn't see any disgust or disdain in her eyes, which made him feel better.
Lu Xia's eyes were a little surprised. She didn't expect that in just one night, there would be such a big change.
She reached out and touched the black scale, and felt that it was hard to the touch, and the edge of the scale was also very sharp.
"How does it feel to be touched like this?"
"Itchy." Grace responded with her eyes slightly closed, as if she didn't want Lu Xia to see the emotion in his eyes. In fact, with the touch of Lu Xia's fingertips, it was not just itchy.
For some reason, the place where the scales grew became so sensitive, as if Lu Xia's fingertips were carrying an electric current, leaving a tingling sensation wherever they passed, spreading all the way to the whole body.
Lu Xia retracted her fingertips and wanted to ask the man what it felt like when this scale grew. When she raised her eyes, she noticed the man's red ears and a little strangeness in his eyes.
But Lu Xia didn't think much of it. She just thought that her behavior made Grace feel uncomfortable, and she felt a little embarrassed in her heart. She coughed lightly: "You rest first, and remember to drink water."
After the voice fell, Lu Xia turned and left, and went directly to the study to record the information she got from Grace today.
After she left, Grace's tense body slowly relaxed, and he picked up the cup of water on the table and drank it all. The moment the cool liquid flowed into his body, it relieved the burning sensation in his body and brought him a moment of relief.
But soon, it was followed by a more surging tide, as if it could swallow him whole.
The burning sensation that flowed out from his body made Grace arch his back painfully, as if this was the only way to relieve the pain.
The numb and painful feeling appeared again, and he could even hear the cracking sound of the scales breaking through the skin during the growth process.
Then he saw his right hand, which was covered with black scales and grew long nails, which looked like claws in his eyes.
After Lu Xia filled in Grace's medical record in the study, she told the kitchen to prepare more easy-to-digest food for Grace when preparing lunch.
In the past two days, she has read some precautions after gene fusion. Although Grace's current situation seems to be different, she is also prepared to treat it according to gene fusion.
After giving instructions to the kitchen, Lu Xia turned back to her room. When she passed by Grace's room, she could vaguely hear a faint moan from inside. Lu Xia frowned slightly and walked forward quickly: "Grace, are you okay?"
As she opened the door, Grace's figure disappeared in front of the bed and hid in the bathroom.
Lu Xia only had time to see his back before he disappeared behind the bathroom door.
It was obvious that something had happened and he didn't want her to see it.
Lu Xia walked over with some worry, but did not rashly open the bathroom door. Instead, she knocked on the door respectfully: "Grace, are you okay?"
Her voice was soft and worried.
Grace, who was standing by the door, endured the pain in her body, suppressed her breathing, and responded in a flat voice: "I'm fine, I just want to take a shower, don't worry, you go back and rest."
Although the man concealed it well, Lu Xia still heard the depression that could not be hidden inside.
"Grace, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me. Don't be patient or worry about anything. No matter what happens, I hope we can face it together. You don't need to bear it alone."
Lu Xia was not surprised. Grace's behavior at this moment was probably because he was worried that he would be abandoned if he showed his embarrassing and vulnerable side in front of her. That's why Grace didn't want to show his weakness in front of her. This was not Grace's problem, but the problem of the entire imperial society.
So males seem to have no sense of security by nature.
They are born with repression and humiliation.
