Healing the downtrodden S-class orcs, the little females are being snatched up
Chapter 272 Change.
Chapter 272 Change.
Cecilia and Admiral Crane also knew that Prince Li Ke was still alive, and they also knew the true identity of Ares.
The two had never imagined that Ares would be the male cub of Prince Li Ke and Her Majesty the Queen.
After hearing that Her Majesty the Queen had summoned the two of them, Cecilia was very clear about Her Majesty the Queen's purpose, and Lu Xiao would definitely stand on Ares' side.
She selfishly didn't want Lu Xiao to get involved in the matter between Her Majesty the Queen and Prince Li Ke, but she also knew that based on the relationship between Lu Xiao and Ares, this was probably impossible and unavoidable.
Therefore, he could only remind Lu Xiao that in the matter of Ares, she could completely rely on her own ideas and not have any scruples, so as to influence the relationship between the Duke's Palace of Galliodro and Prince Li Ke.
Cecilia's words were equivalent to telling Lu Xiao clearly that the Duke of Galliodro's Mansion was on the side of Lu Xiao and Ares.
Her grandmother was as reliable as ever.
That afternoon, Lu Xiao and Ares arrived at the palace on time.
This was the first time that Lu Xiao and Ares came here. The huge palace was guarded by guards. If they wanted to have an audience, they had to go through layers of inspection before they could finally come before Her Majesty the Queen. It was far from being as easy as when they were at Sophie's Manor.
However, the one who finally guided them was still the old female who always accompanied Her Majesty the Queen. When she saw the two of them, the old female became much more respectful, especially when facing Ares.
When they arrived at the palace where Her Majesty the Queen was, Her Majesty the Queen was dressed in gorgeous clothes. The moment she turned around and saw Ares and Lu Xiao, she stretched out her hand to Ares and said, "Come here, my child, come to your mother, let me take a good look at you. I didn't recognize you last time. Damn it!"
Ares did not move closer as he was told, but knelt on one knee and saluted respectfully: "Greetings, Her Majesty."
Seeing this, Her Majesty the Queen put down her hand in disappointment: "Ares, are you resenting me?"
She walked over and helped Ares up, her eyes slightly red.
"I have never resented you, Your Majesty." Ares lowered his eyes slightly and did not look directly at the queen. He was doing his duty as an officer should do, but it was not what a child should do to his mother.
There was respect in his eyes, but no affection.
He said he had no resentment, and he really didn't, because he had never considered Her Majesty the Queen as a mother. To him, she was just a monarch he was not very familiar with.
Her Majesty the Queen understood what Ares meant, and because she understood it, she felt even more sad.
"I'm sorry, Ares. I realized it too late." Her Majesty the Queen withdrew her hand, looked at Lu Xiao who was standing quietly beside her, and smiled. "I heard that you are holding a wedding. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Lu Xiao saw the Queen's hope, glanced at Ares, and handed the invitation letter prepared in advance to Her Majesty the Queen: "The wedding is ready, Your Majesty, please come to attend in your spare time. Ares and I will be honored and look forward to it."
Her Majesty the Queen took it and opened the invitation directly to read the contents. She smiled and said, "I will go, for sure."
Her Majesty the Queen had the old female carefully put away the invitation and then ordered the meal to be served.
Even though they didn't say much during the meal and the atmosphere seemed very peaceful, Her Majesty the Queen still smiled as she accompanied them through the dinner. She then said, "Ares, I know very well that it's unrealistic for you to accept me all of a sudden. I haven't treated you well and sincerely before. I admit that I'm not a qualified female mother, but I will study hard in the future and I hope you can give me a chance. As for the result, I won't force it. I just ask you not to reject what I give you."
Lu Xiao understood what Her Majesty the Queen meant.
She may not want Ares' reward, but she hopes Ares can give her the opportunity to make up for it.
She could see that Her Majesty the Queen was humble at this moment. Ares nodded: "Okay."
Just a simple response made Her Majesty the Queen cry with joy.
Before sending Ares and Lu Xiao away, Her Majesty the Queen said, "As for the matter between me and your father, we will solve it ourselves. You don't have to worry about it, and it won't bother you. Xiaoxiao, you are welcome to come here to visit me often in the future."
"I will, Your Majesty." Lu Xiao knew very well that the person Her Majesty the Queen really wanted to invite was not her, but she could not say such words to Ares.
Ares was silent on the way back from the palace. Lu Xiao did not speak, but just held the man's hand behind her and interlocked their fingers.
Ares lowered his eyes to look at him, then gently tightened his palm and held the little female's hand: "Xiaoxiao, thank you."
Lu Xiao looked up at him and said, "Why are you thanking me again? I didn't do anything this time."
"You don't have to do it, you just need to be by my side."
"Am I that powerful?"
"Well, you are my confidence!"
Hearing this, Lu Xiao smiled and took his arm: "Ares, don't be sad, and don't think about the past. There will always be many experiences in life, and all experiences have good and bad. We just need to follow our hearts. You don't need to think too much about Her Majesty the Queen. It doesn't matter whether you accept or reject it. I just hope that Ares can be your true self and happy self."
From the moment they met until this moment, Lu Xiao's expectations for Ares have never changed. She always hopes that Ares can throw off the shackles on his body and the cage-like worldview, be completely liberated, and become a free and happy puppy.
Ares lowered his head and pressed his forehead against Lu Xiao's, their eyes meeting.
The moonlight poured down over the two of them, and they only had each other in their eyes.
Lu Xiao heard that Ares responded tenderly and affectionately: "Okay!"
Lu Xiao curved her eyes, smiled and reached out to touch the man's head: "I will stay with you and never leave."

As the news that Prince Li Ke was still alive continued to spread, Ares's identity gradually came to light.
Kurapeng was eating the melon when he found himself so close to the melon. He immediately ran to Ares' office, knocked on the door, looked at Ares mysteriously, and rubbed his hands: "Then I'll ask you something, you can choose not to answer, is Prince Li Ke really your father?"
Ares remained silent and looked at him.
The two stared at each other for a while, and Kurapeng raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you say anything? Is there eye boogers on my face?"
As he spoke, he scratched it.
Ares was speechless and became even more silent.
"Didn't you say I didn't have to answer?"
Kurapon's face was shocked. "But silence is sometimes an answer. So this is true. Then Her Majesty the Queen is your mother?"
