Healing the downtrodden S-class orcs, the little females are being snatched up
Chapter 255 Inheritance.
Chapter 255 Inheritance.
While Lu Xiao was pulling Ares to fill their stomachs, many people in the banquet hall were already asking about the identities of the two.
"Who are those two? Why have I never seen them before?"
"No way, you don't even know them. Lord Ares, it's fine if you don't know, but Lord Lu Xiao, haven't you seen him either?"
"She is Ms. Lu Xiao?"
"Oh my god, she's younger and prettier than I thought!"
"I can go over and say hello to her. I want to get to know her, and it would be best if our female cub could get to know her, too."
"I think we should not go there now. Duke Cecilia will introduce her after the banquet starts. It would be better if we go there then, right?"
"At that time, are you sure we still have a chance?"
……
So as soon as Lu Xiao started eating, many people came to greet her.
Seeing this, Ares naturally stood in front of Lu Xiao and dealt with these people. Lu Xiao knew that Ares wanted her to eat well.
But at the same time, she would feel sorry for Ares.
She took the man's arm and said to them with a smile, "Excuse me, my wife hasn't eaten yet, can we eat something first?"
The person who came to chat with me nodded immediately after hearing this: "Okay, we won't bother you two for now."
Ares lowered his eyes and looked at Lu Xiao, with a smile in his eyes.
Maybe for others, such a banquet is used to make friends, but for Lu Xiao and Ares, it is just an ordinary banquet.
no difference.
Soon, as time passed, the dinner time was approaching. When Cecilia came down from upstairs in a decent dress, Lu Xiao greeted her with a smile, took Cecilia's arm, and walked down the stairs with her.
All the guests clapped and responded with smiles.
Coming down from upstairs, Cecilia brought Lu Xiao to the crowd and said, "I'm very happy to see you all here tonight. It's been a long time since we've met. I'm very relieved to see that you are all doing well. Tonight I will introduce my granddaughter Lu Xiao to you all. In the future, she will be the new generation heir of the Duke of Galliodero's Palace. I hope that you will treat her with the same respect as you treat me."
Lu Xiao's heart tightened, and she subconsciously looked at Cecilia who said this with a smile.
This was completely different from what she had said before. Before, Cecilia had only said that she would introduce her to everyone, but she had not said that she would declare her the heir to the Duke of Galliodro's Palace.
Cecilia smiled and gently patted the back of Lu Xiao's hand to comfort her.
Lu Xiao knew that this might be a surprise given to her by the old lady and also the most precious gift.
"Thank you, Grandma."
Cecilia's words were like throwing a stone into the calm water, instantly making the guests look at Lu Xiao with extremely serious eyes.
They knew that the Duke of Galliodro's Palace, which had not held a banquet for a long time, suddenly started holding banquets, which must be a big news to be announced.
Sure enough, they were not disappointed. Some were just surprised, while others felt it was normal.
In the empire, it is almost impossible to find another young female as outstanding as Lu Xiao.
It was only natural for Cecilia to choose Lu Xiao as her successor.
Those who were surprised thought that Lu Xiao was too young. Could such a young female take on the title of Duke of Galliodro?
You have to know that they also have female cubs in their own family, who are about the same age as Lu Xiao. They are really willful and difficult to manage.
They were not comfortable giving their title to such a female.
But whether these people accept it or not, this is Duke Galliodro's family affair.
Duke Leslie, Athena was the first to applaud: "Ms. Cecilia's vision is still so good, our Mr. Lu Xiao is also worthy, it's really enviable, why don't I have a female cub!"
With her leading the way, others also echoed: "Yes, we have all heard about the excellence of His Excellency Lu Xiao. We are so envious. In comparison, that bastard in my family is simply unbearable. She insisted on coming along today, and I was too embarrassed to bring her along!"
"Who said it wasn't true? I used to think that all the females in the empire were the same, and it was normal for my daughter to be a little willful. But after meeting Lord Lu Xiao, I finally understood that there are still good females, but we just haven't met them. Duke Cecilia is really lucky!"
"Hey, what do you think Countess Lu Gewei would feel if she knew that the little female cub she gave birth to would inherit the title of Duke Galliodro?"
"If I were her, I would really regret it!"
……
Listening to these people's discussions, Cecilia smiled and took Lu Xiao's hand, personally taking her to greet some people.
Lu Xiao carefully took note of the people who could be introduced by Cecilia individually. She knew very well that Cecilia would not introduce useless people to her.
Ares stood aside holding a wine glass, his eyes following Lu Xiao all the time. Even though everyone at the banquet was dressed up and looked dazzling, in his eyes, these people pale in comparison to Lu Xiao.
The wine glass in his hand was touched, and Ares looked up at Fred who was walking towards him.
"I haven't had time to congratulate you on becoming a lieutenant general yet."
Ares took a sip of the wine in his glass: "Thank you."
Fred turned to look at the little female in the center of the banquet: "I have applied to go to the garrison on the edge star and will leave next week."
Hearing this news suddenly, Ares subconsciously looked at Fred: "Why so sudden?"
"Our First Army is a garrison garrison. Admiral Klan is old and no longer suitable. I went there to prepare to take over the First Army. When I come back, I may be promoted to admiral." At this point, Fred smiled and said, "I also want to change my environment."
As for why he wanted to change his environment, Fred didn't say, but Ares understood that he wanted to leave the place where Lu Xiao was and end this relationship.
Ares felt that as the beneficiary, he had nothing to say about this, so he could only say, "Then I wish you all the best in advance."
Fred patted him on the shoulder and said, "Admiral Kurapeng is not young anymore. I think he will promote you within the next two years. Maybe we will have a chance to meet again."
Ares nodded.
Fred laughed and said, "I really envy you, Ares. Or rather, many people envy you. Do you know why I chose to give up? When I was in the Canghe Tribe, I saw with my own eyes how you and Lord Lu Xiao got along. From that time on, I knew I had no chance. There was no room between you and Lu Xiao for others. I would feel guilty if I tried to destroy you two."
