Chapter 70 Follow-up visit.
Prince Li Mang didn't mean to mock Duke Leslie by saying this. It seemed that he was talking about Duke Leslie, but in fact, he was talking about herself.
Like Duke Leslie, she was not as brave as Duke Lu Xia, who could risk his life for anyone and give everything for others. There were too many things that bound them.
After Lu Xia took Grace away from the banquet and returned to the car, Lu Xia couldn't help asking: "Did you hear their apology?"
Grace nodded: "I heard it."
Lu Xia raised the corners of her lips: "How do you feel? Although they may not be sincere, I think whether they are willing or not, the result is very important."
Grace smiled and held Lu Xia's hand: "Before this, I never expected them to apologize, even if it was not sincere. All this is because of you, Xia Xia. You have given me a lot of things that I didn't dare to ask for before. Thank you."
"Of course I have my reasons, but Grace, you can't deny your own value." Lu Xia has always known that Grace is excellent.
In an environment that is not conducive to the growth of males in the empire, relying on her identity as a "defective" male to become a colonel in the military, the effort and hardship involved, even if she did not participate in it, can be imagined, it must be very difficult.
Grace looked at her gently with his eyes. He knew very well that he might meet many people in his life, but only Lu Xia would say to him like this, don't deny your own value.
And his value, only Lu Xia can see it.
Reaching out and hugging Lu Xia in his arms, Grace felt that if he was not a good person, he would be sorry for the little female's efforts for him.
Lu Xia felt that Grace must have a lot of feelings this night, and it was normal for him to be a little excited. She reached out and gently patted his shoulder to comfort him.
When they returned home, it was already a little late, but the old butler and Smelian had not rested yet, as if they had been waiting for them.
"Why didn't you rest?" Lu Xia asked while changing shoes at the entrance.
"I was supposed to rest, but you just happened to come back. Is everything going well?" The old butler poured a glass of warm water for the two.
"There was a little problem, but it's not a big problem. Overall, it went smoothly." Lu Xia put down the cup. "It's getting late, you should go to bed."
Smelian said, "Are you going to see Dr. Eugene tomorrow?"
"Yes, do you have other plans?"
"No, I just want to confirm the time again, in case I remember it wrong. I'll go with you."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you tomorrow. Go to bed." After saying that, Lu Xia didn't stay for long and went upstairs with Grace to the master bedroom.

Because he had made an appointment with Duke Lu Xia for a follow-up visit in advance, Dr. Eugene came to the clinic early in the morning to prepare. As Duke Lu Xia's pregnancy progressed, the number of items to be checked also increased. He also had to be careful not to expose the news that Duke Lu Xia was pregnant.
Fortunately, he was the head of the department and could mobilize department members at any time. Last night, he had already issued a task to his subordinates to go out for medical rounds.
Every month, they have a public welfare day, and they need to go to some welfare homes for public welfare consultations.
So when Lu Xia and the others arrived, there was only Dr. Eugene in the huge department.
Seeing that they came here today, there were two males accompanying Duke Luxia. One of them, Grace, was seen by Doctor Eugene, and he also knew that he was the male father of the fetus in Duke Luxia's belly, but the other face was a little unfamiliar.
However, Duke Luxia introduced Smellian to him very well: "A surgeon at the Imperial Hospital."
Although he did not introduce his relationship with Smellian, Doctor Eugene could guess that he must be one of Duke Luxia's servants.
The other person did not have any animal characteristics, which was enough to prove that Smellian was not a gene fusion.
However, even though it was not the first time that Dr. Eugene had seen Duke Lu Xia's attitude towards his husband and servant, he was still surprised.
There were not many females who were so friendly to their husbands and servants, and it was even rarer to be so good.
Without saying much, Dr. Eugene carried out various tests on Lu Xia very professionally. During this time, the two males beside her, whether Grace or Smellian, took it seriously and listened carefully.
Even after the examination, Smellian specifically asked about the precautions.
In fact, the cub in Lu Xia's belly is very healthy and strong now, which is naturally inseparable from Grace's efforts during this period.
The cub is growing very well with the cooperation of its mother and father.
Through the imaging test, the shape of the fetus can be clearly seen. The small fetus curled up in a ball is still very cute even if the color is not bright.
Lu Xia saw this scene so intuitively for the first time, which made her feel more real.
The cub in her belly was so well behaved. If it weren't for the bulge in her belly and the occasional fetal movement, she would have forgotten that she was pregnant.
"Can I keep this video?" Grace asked.
Doctor Eugene smiled and nodded: "Of course."
In fact, he could fully understand Grace's feelings. As a husband or a "defective" male, it meant that he would never have the chance to become a male father in this life, but Lu Xia gave him a miracle.
He himself is a male, so he can understand Grace's feelings.
Naturally, he would not refuse.
Smellian also silently looked at the cub in the video, his eyes full of expectation and envy.
He didn't know if he had the chance to become a male father, but there was no doubt that Lu Xia's existence gave him hope.
"The due date is still two months away. You should continue to maintain it in these two months. If there is any abnormality, we will contact you at any time." After personally sending them to the door, Doctor Eugene did not forget to remind them.
Lu Xia nodded and said, "I will. Thank you for bothering you today. Have you been contacted by the Fertility Research Institute?"
"We keep in touch from time to time, but it's just routine."
"Of course I believe you." Lu Xia said nothing more. After coming out from Dr. Eugene's place, Grace suddenly said, "I just received a message that I have to rush to the military district. Smellian, can you please take Xia Xia back?" "
Of course, it's my responsibility."
Seeing Smellian agreed, Grace looked at Lu Xia, "Don't worry, it's not a dangerous mission."
"I know, go ahead." Lu Xia waved to Grace and got on the hovercraft first. After Smellian got on, he said, "I'm not going home. Take me to Courtyard No. 2. Is it okay for you to be late for work today?"
"I've asked for leave today." Smellian smiled and closed the car door. For Smellian, it was a rare opportunity to have such a chance to be alone with Lu Xia.
