Chapter 12 tells.

Lying on the ground as if he had lost all his strength, Kefei looked at the blue sky, and in his ears was the extremely noisy discussion even when the voices were lowered.

He didn't need to listen carefully to know exactly what they were talking about!
It's just that he lost!
Yeah, he lost!

He claimed to be a gene fusionist, but he lost to Grace, a "defective product" whom he looked down upon. How could this not cause discussion? If he were in her place, he would also talk loudly about the incredibleness of it.

He thought that Grace should be very happy. He defeated him. He defeated him as a gene fusionist. This was definitely something worth showing off and praising.

Kefei felt that his world had become dark and what awaited him was endless ridicule.

However, Grace ignored him. After her victory, she walked up to Lu Xia and said, "I won."

His tone was calm and his expression seemed natural, but Lu Xia inexplicably felt that the person in front of him was seeking praise in the calmest manner.

"Well, very impressive!" Lu Xia said, then turned his head to look at Ke Fei who was still lying on the ground and said, "Sir, please don't forget our previous agreement."

She suddenly spoke up, bringing the already buzzing discussion to a halt. Soon, many people began to curiously discuss the matter again.

"What agreement?"

"What don't we know?"

……

Just as everyone was asking around about the agreement, Colonel Kefei, who had been lying on the ground, got up. Without turning around, he spoke with a voice filled with sorrow: "Although I lost, I will not break my promise, and I will not violate the agreement!"

Having said that, he suddenly took a deep breath in front of everyone, and then said: "I am a fool, I am a fool, I am a fool..."

Onlookers: "..."

Grace glanced at the commotion on the playground and quickly turned her attention to Lu Xia: "What's the matter with you coming to see me today?"

Lu Xia, who was watching the show with great interest, looked up at Grace and said, "I went to the hospital today and came to see you on the way."

As she spoke, the old housekeeper stood quietly by, pretending not to exist.

But the sheep ears on its head were already standing upright.

Grace quickly grasped the key point of Lu Xia's words: "Are you feeling unwell?"

Lu Xia looked at him meaningfully: "I'm not feeling uncomfortable, I just need to confirm some things."

"What's it? Can I know?" Grace had a feeling that Lu Xia might have come for this matter.

For some reason, he was a little nervous at this moment.

He was not nervous when he fought with Ke Fei just now.

When facing Lu Xia at this moment, he became nervous instead.

Lu Xia, however, seemed not to notice his emotional fluctuations. Instead, she turned her attention back to Ke Fei, who was yelling "I'm a fool," and asked a question: "Do you like children?"

The sudden question made Grace stunned. Obviously, he had thought of many possibilities, but he did not expect Lu Xia to ask such a question.

"I don't hate it." In fact, he had never thought about this problem, because in the entire empire, fertility is a problem. Not to mention the difficulty for those with gene fusion, it is even more impossible for him, a "defective product", to have offspring. So he never considered whether he liked it or not. Even if he liked it, what could he do? He was destined to never have his own offspring in this life.

So he didn't understand why Lu Xia asked him such a question. Did Duke Lu Xia want a child?
Grace's heart trembled at the realization of this possibility. Lu Xia sensed the man's nervousness this time and couldn't help but curl her lips: "I'm pregnant, and the child is yours."

She didn't say this loudly, but it was loud enough for Grace to hear.

As the words fell, she clearly saw the man's pupils suddenly shrink, and then she saw an undisguised shock on the face of the man who usually had a rather indifferent expression.

Lu Xia was very satisfied with the shock he showed. He looked at him with a smile and continued, "The doctor has checked it and there is no mistake."

"I didn't doubt it, I just... I just didn't expect it." Grace lowered his head and responded softly. He looked

I was very panicked, but I had to force myself to calm down.

But this was difficult because his mind was constantly repeating Lu Xia's words: "I'm pregnant, the child is yours."

words.

The child is his!
Is he going to be a father?

How can this be?

"I came here today to tell you this news. It's okay, you continue working, I'm going back." Lu Xia had admired Grace's expression enough and was ready to leave with satisfaction. She knew very well that this news should be enough for Grace to digest for a long time.

Grace hadn't calmed down yet when she heard Lu Xia was leaving, but she instinctively said, "I'll take you there."

"No need, go ahead and do your work." Lu Xia waved his hand and left with the old butler.

Grace, who was left there, couldn't calm down for a long time. She was even so shocked by the news that her eyes were red.

When the others saw Lu Xia leave, they couldn't help but come to Grace out of curiosity and said, "Grace, I really underestimated you. You actually beat Ke Fei. Now Ke Fei should behave himself!"

"Colonel Grace, your mistress has gone back. Is there anything she wants to talk to you about?"

Just when everyone couldn't suppress their curiosity and asked questions, Grace waved them away and left quickly. He wanted to find a place to calm down first.

Everyone watched him leave, somewhat bewildered, and exchanged strange glances, "What's going on? Why do I feel like Grace is unhappy that Kofi beat her?"

"I saw his eyes were red just now. Is Duke Lu Xia dissatisfied with the result?"

"That can't be right. If you weren't satisfied with this result, why would you have defended Colonel Grace before?"

"Humph, females are so hard to understand. Who can know what they're thinking? Grace has it really hard too. Let him be alone and don't disturb him."

Hearing these words suddenly, everyone present was speechless. Isn’t it easy for Grace?
Duke Lu Xia came to see him in person and defended Grace in front of them. Isn’t the one who is miserable now Colonel Kofei who is still shouting "I am a fool"?
Put yourself in their shoes. If they were Colonel Kefei, they would have bought a boat ticket after leaving the First Military Region.

I can't stay here any longer.

However, Grace no longer cared about Ke Fei at this time. His mind was full of Lu Xia's pregnancy. When he returned to the office, his mood had calmed down a little.

He was even more fully aware of what secret Lu Xia had told him.

If what Duke Lu Xia said is true, then wouldn’t Duke Lu Xia be the first female in the empire in hundreds of years to successfully conceive naturally?
