Chapter 45 Invitation.
Although no one spoke during the meal, Smelian could feel that the intimacy between Duke Lu Xia and Grace was not fake.
The two would occasionally comment on which dish on the table tasted good. The natural atmosphere was warm enough to make people feel comfortable.
Everything was harmonious to the point of being abnormal.
Lu Xia remembered halfway through the meal that there was an extra Smelian at the table tonight.
He couldn't help but look up and just caught a glimpse of the man staring at his bowl in a daze: "Smelian, is your dinner to your taste? If you have any dietary restrictions, you can tell the butler."
Smelian really felt like a guest at this moment, and Duke Lu Xia was treating him as the host.
This shouldn't be a big deal, but compared to Grace, it was very different.
"It's delicious, thank you, I don't have any dietary restrictions."
"That's good." Lu Xia seemed to be relieved, and then asked, "What kind of job are you doing now?"
Suddenly hearing this question, Smelian said in his heart, as expected.
As expected, Duke Lu Xia didn't remember his name and had never known him.
"I'm working at the Imperial Central Hospital as a surgeon." This is also the job that many 'defective' males would choose. Most of the bodies that have not been 'baptized' by the beast gene cannot do high-intensity and physically demanding work.
The profession of doctor is a stable and respected profession in any era.
Even if he is a 'defective' one, who would care about his identity when life and death are at stake.
But it's not easy to become a doctor, and only Smellian himself knows the difficulties.
Lu Xia didn't expect that he was actually a surgeon, and was a little surprised.
But before she could say anything, Smellian had already said: "If you don't like me going out to work, I can stay at home."
Although he said this, he could feel that he was not very willing.
This made Lu Xia look at Grace. Grace had said this before.
Hearing it again, he felt familiar, but he was not surprised. Habits are really terrible.
"Work is also a part of your life. You don't have to give it up for anyone. I don't need it." Lu Xia stood up after saying that. "Besides, having another doctor at home makes people feel much more at ease."
When Lu Xia stood up, Smelian also stood up unconsciously, and then watched Grace leave the table with her.
Thinking about the last words left by Duke Lu Xia before he left, was he praised?
Unexpectedly, Duke Lu Xia was willing to let him continue working.
This was another difference from the rumors.
Was Grace bewitched in this way?
"Smelian, have you eaten?" The old butler suddenly asked, bringing Smelian, who was standing at the table in a trance, back to his senses. "I'm done, thank you."
"Then I'll have someone evacuate. If you need anything, you can tell me at any time."
"I know, I can ask Grace's room..."
"He lives in the master bedroom with his wife now. If you want to find him, you can go to the master bedroom." The old butler didn't think about it. Smelian suddenly asked where Grace lived and what he was doing.
In his opinion, there has always been competition between males, even if they are both husbands and servants of Duke Lu Xia, this is something that cannot be changed.
But who is the most favored one can always compete.
This family should be very lively in the future.
Smelian was shocked again by the old housekeeper's answer.
Duke Lu Xia actually allowed a servant to live with her.
This is probably a treatment that even the head husband may not be able to enjoy, right?
Lu Xia didn't know what Smelian was feeling. When she returned to her room, she received another video invitation from Prince Li Mang.
When the other party saw Lu Xia appear on the screen, he said more enthusiastically than last time: "Dear, do you have time to come to my place for dinner with Duke Leslie the day after tomorrow? It's just a small dinner party. Not many people are invited. They are all good friends. Let's have fun together?" When she
saw Prince Li Mang again this time, she felt that her mental state was better than last time, as if the stone that had been accumulated in her heart
had finally fallen, and the whole person was visibly relaxed.
Lu Xia knew that the hair growth liquid might have extraordinary effects, so Prince Li Mang was so enthusiastic about her.
Of course, she would not reject this enthusiasm and said with a smile: "Of course I will go when I have time. I can't bear to refuse the invitation from His Excellency the Prince."
"Then it's settled. You and Duke Leslie come together and I will introduce my friends to you. They all want to meet you, too!"
Not long after she finished the call with Prince Li Mang, a video of Duke Leslie was sent to her. Apparently, she had also received an invitation from Prince Li Mang.
As soon as the call was connected, Duke Leslie said excitedly: "My dear, I really want to thank you this time. If it weren't for you, I would definitely not be able to enter Prince Li Mang's circle so quickly."
"No, if it weren't for the Duke's introduction to me, I would not have been able to meet Prince Li Mang until now."
"Hahaha, I like what you said. Then let's not thank each other. I will pick you up the day after tomorrow. Don't move the car. I will send you back after the meeting."
"Okay, then I will be thick-skinned and trouble you."
"I am very happy to do so. By the way, I heard that the last time Prince Li Mang asked you for hair growth liquid, he actually didn't have any friends at all. It was Prince Li Mang who used it himself and the effect was good. I heard from someone yesterday that she also shared this matter with others. It seems that she has completely recovered."
Duke Leslie's network of relationships is indeed very wide.
He even knew such private things and told her specifically to let her know so that she would not say the wrong thing and ask Prince Li Mang about her so-called friends, which would be embarrassing.
Lu Xia naturally understood Duke Leslie's intention. After thanking Duke Leslie with a smile, she ended the call.
Since she was going to attend Prince Li Mang's dinner, Lu Xia prepared to bring some beauty cream as a gift.
Grace saw that Lu Xia was very happy after she ended the call, and said softly: "The royal family should also go to Prince Li Mang's private dinner."
Lu Xia was a little surprised to be suddenly reminded by Grace. She knew that the empire was controlled by the royal family, but she had not yet come into contact with it.
Thinking about it carefully, according to Prince Li Mang's status, it is normal for royal family members to attend.
I just don't know who will come.
She thought so, so she asked: "Do you know who it will be?"
Grace stretched out her hand and naturally smoothed Lu Xia's collar that was messed up by her action just now: "You also have a husband, a member of the royal family, Cecil, his mother is Her Majesty the Queen's sister, Lady Daina, and she is also more or less related to Prince Li Mang."
