Chapter 85 Rejection.
After Dr. Vera left, Dr. Eugene informed Lu Xia that the Fertility Research Institute was looking for him.
Lu Xia was not surprised to hear this. She had discussed this with Dr. Eugene after the birth of the child. They wanted to make natural pregnancy a breeding process, and all the procedures were breeding procedures. As long as they did not accept the gene extraction of the Fertility Research Institute, they would not be discovered.
In this kind of thing, the more open and aboveboard they act, the less likely they are to be suspected.
So Dr. Vera wanted to come and see Little Grape in person, and Duke Lu Xia had no objection. Anyway, he could only see her this once, and it would definitely not work if he came all the time.
The more he covered up, the more likely he would arouse the suspicion of the Genetic Research Institute.
After confirming the time with Dr. Eugene, Lu Xia ended the call.
There was still a week before Little Grape's full moon. Lu Xia discussed with Smellian that after the full moon banquet for Little Grape, he would go back with him to visit Mrs. Rafaeld.
Smelian didn't expect that she still remembered this matter. He was a little happy, but he didn't want Lu Xia to worry about him: "My mother has been here last time. In fact, there is no need to go back specially. It's the same."
"It's still different. I will go back with you. Mother should not bother you again in the future." Lu Xia said this simply and naturally, and Smelian felt warm in his heart.
It turned out that the purpose of going back with him was all for him.
"Okay." He didn't say anything else, and accepted the kindness with a smile.
After Lu Xia returned to the bedroom, he told Grace about the people from the Fertility Research Institute coming to see Xiao Pu Tao. Grace knew that Lu Xia had negotiated everything about Xiao Pu Tao with Dr. Eugene, and nodded: "I will pay more attention that day."
With Grace around, Lu Xia was naturally more at ease.
The next morning, Dr. Eugene appeared in the Duke of Lu Xia's mansion with Dr. Vera in a suit.
The old housekeeper welcomed the two of them in. On the way, Dr. Eugene naturally asked the old housekeeper about Little Grape. Speaking of the fat boy, the old housekeeper's face was full of smiles: "Little Master Grape is doing well now. He is much fatter than the last time you saw him. He can eat and sleep well. He is very well behaved and doesn't cry."
Dr. Vera felt that there was nothing nutritious about these words, and couldn't help but ask: "Is there anything special?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, the old housekeeper shut up and looked at him with a vigilant face, as if he thought he had bad intentions, which directly depressed Dr. Vera.
Dr. Eugene smiled to ease the atmosphere and introduced to the old housekeeper: "This is Dr. Vera, an expert from the Fertility Research Institute. I heard about Little Grape and came to take a look."
The old housekeeper's vigilant eyes remained unchanged: "Dr. Eugene, you should understand that our lady only trusts you."
"Of course I know this, I will not let my lady down." Dr. Eugene accepted the old housekeeper's behavior of raising his own status well.
Although Dr. Vera was unwilling, he had to admit that he was able to come in so easily because of Dr. Eugene. Even though he was resentful, he had to endure it and wait until he met the child.
After they got the information from Dr. Eugene, they couldn't wait to analyze it. As a result, they found that there was nothing unusual. Everything was just a regular breeding process and record. It
was ordinary. Just like what Eugene said, everything might really be just a coincidence!
But in the same way, they used the genes of other "defective" males for breeding, but they didn't get any results.
So this time, meeting this "special" cub is particularly precious. I wonder if I can persuade Duke Lu Xia to agree to let him take some blood back for research.
Presumably, it would be more direct to find the answer directly from the sample.
Thinking of this, the old housekeeper had already taken them to the baby room on the second floor. Lu Xia knew they were coming, and had been waiting here with Grace in advance.
"Madam, Dr. Eugene and the people from the Fertility Research Institute are here."
"Let them in." As soon as Lu Xia's voice fell, Dr. Eugene walked in with a smile, "Good day, Duke Lu Xia, good day, Grace, are you resting today?"
Obviously the last sentence was to ask Grace.
"Yes, take a rest today." Grace responded, and put the little Grape in Eugene's arms, "She has gained a lot of weight recently."
"Yes, she looks chubby and prettier than before. How come our little Grape is so pretty? Let uncle weigh her."
Dr. Vera stood aside, watching Eugene put the little fat cub on the scale. He had to admit that the child was raised very well, but it was just very good. There was nothing special about his appearance. He was no different from other cubs bred through breeding technology. If he had to say it, he was just a little cuter.
This inevitably made him feel a little disappointed.
Looking at Duke Luxia on the side, Vera felt that he still had to take action. The basic information examined by Dr. Eugene was of no value to their fertility research institute.
"Duke Lu Xia, I'm a researcher at the Fertility Research Institute. My name is Vera. It's an honor to meet you today." Dr. Vera walked up to Lu Xia with a smile, "We heard that when your male cub was breeding, your husband was not a gene fusion. Our Fertility Research Institute attaches great importance to this. I believe you also understand that this means that it is possible to change the social status of defective males. I wonder if you can allow me to take some blood samples and take them back for research. If we can research something valuable through your cub, it will definitely be a good thing for the country and the people."
After listening to the other party's words, Lu Xia smiled and said, "If you get something valuable from the blood sample, do you still want me to donate my child to you for research at your Fertility Research Institute? This will be more conducive to contributing to society, right?"
Dr. Vera wanted to say that it would be great if he could think this way, but fortunately he was not too stupid and heard the meaning of Duke Lu Xia's words: "Of course we also know that you will be reluctant, but on the road of research, there will always be sacrifices."
"Heh!" Lu Xia chuckled, "It seems that you don't know me very well. I have a research institute under my name. If I want to contribute to the empire, can't I do my own research? Why should I give the research results to you? What benefits can you bring to me? At most, I will write the name of the contributor in an inconspicuous place on the research report, but the honor and halo belong to you, and the sacrifice is for others, so don't say anything about contributing to the empire or not, it sounds hypocritical."
"I hope that you people in the Fertility Research Institute can understand that the reason you are here today is because of Dr. Eugene's face. Otherwise, you will not be able to see my little Grape, not to mention such an unreasonable request as drawing blood. Do you think I will agree?"
