Pregnant female is super soft and fragrant, the orc hugs the waist and kisses

Chapter 22 Recovery.

After returning from the hospital, although Lu Xia's stomach pain was gone, she still felt tired. This tiredness was the kind that could not be recovered no matter how much she rested, and it always made her feel listless.

Grace walked her back to the room and placed a pillow behind her: "You take a rest first, dinner is ready, I will bring it up to you."

Lu Xia nodded: "I'm fine, don't worry."

Although Lu Xia said so, her complexion did not look good, even a little too pale, even her usually pink lips had no blood color.

But even so, the little female did not show any vulnerability.

This inexplicably makes people feel soft-hearted.

Grace has seen many different kinds of females, but she has never seen one as sensible as Lu Xia, so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.

He hoped that Lu Xia could show his vulnerable side, that it was okay to be a little spoiled, that he could endure being beaten or scolded, and that he didn't have to bear any pain alone.

Noticing Grace's silence, Lu Xia looked up with confusion in his eyes: "What's wrong with you? Is there anything else?"

Grace hid the pain in her eyes and said softly, "Let's do what Dr. Eugene said tonight, okay? I'll be very gentle and won't hurt you or the baby."

She didn't expect that he would discuss this matter with her under such circumstances. She thought he would remain silent until she took the initiative to ask.

But when Lu Xia thought about what they were discussing, he felt awkward and embarrassed. He pretended to be calm and nodded: "Okay."

After receiving the response, Grace did not stay long. Before turning around and leaving, she did not forget to remind her: "Have a good rest."

After Grace left, the huge room became quiet. Lu Xia sat quietly for a while, burying his face in the pillow. This was really painful.

*
At night, after dinner, Grace accompanied Lu Xia for a walk in the yard to help digest the food before returning to the bedroom. She personally prepared the bath water for Lu Xia. When she was about to go in to help, Lu Xia stopped her, saying, "Grace, I can wash myself. Just wait here for me. You don't have to do everything for me."

Grace pursed his lips imperceptibly. He thought that when he accompanied Lu Xia on a walk today, the two of them had reached some kind of tacit understanding. It seemed that he was overthinking it. "Okay, then I'll wait for you here. Call me if you need anything."

Lu Xia nodded, said nothing more, and went straight into the bathroom.

Even if they were going to do something more intimate later, she still couldn't accept letting Grace help her take a bath.

Grace stood outside the bathroom door, listening to the water splashing inside, but her heart was not as calm as she appeared.

Because he knew very well that although Lu Xia accepted Dr. Eugene's proposal, it was for the fetus in her womb, not because she accepted him.

Realizing this, he felt somewhat unwilling, but he also knew that some things could not be rushed, and now having the opportunity to be so close to Lu Xia was already a great opportunity for him.

After all, there are many people like him.

Just as he was thinking about this, the bathroom door opened, and the little female who had just finished taking a shower had her fair cheeks dyed pink by the steam, making her look even smaller.

"Let me help you wipe it." Grace took the towel from her hand and carefully helped Lu Xia wipe her hair.

The room fell silent for a moment, and neither of them spoke. The atmosphere in Jingyi became more ambiguous and awkward.

When Grace put the towel down, Lu Xia knew the time had come. She pretended to be natural and said, "Do we do it now?"

Grace responded, "Okay."

After the conversation ended, neither of them moved, as if waiting for the other to take the initiative, adding a touch of awkwardness to the atmosphere. Ultimately, Lu Xia decided that since both the head and the head would be cut, it would be better to cut the Gordian knot. He grabbed Grace's clothes, pulled her down, and kissed her on the lips.

The man's lips seemed firm, but they were actually very soft.

Grace was startled by Lu Xia's sudden action, but she remained rational and supported herself on both sides of Lu Xia when she fell.

From passively enduring to actively fighting back, in a very short moment, the man took the initiative.

This made Lu Xia relax and let it go.

……

After everything was over, Lu Xia couldn't help thinking before going to bed that Grace probably didn't enjoy it enough. At least compared to the first time, this time, the man was much more restrained. He took care of her feelings throughout the whole process and asked her from time to time how she felt.

At this moment, she really didn't want to answer, because no matter what she answered, it felt like she was praising the other person. After asking for a while, Lu Xia couldn't help but bite the other person's shoulder.

What he got in return was a chuckle from the man.

Grace looked at Lu Xia who was sleeping beside her. Her originally pale face still had a rosy glow that had not faded, and she looked much healthier than during the day.

Tentatively holding the little female in his arms, Grace sighed inwardly before closing her eyes and letting herself fall asleep.

In the early morning, when Lu Xia woke up, Grace was no longer by her side. She sat up and moved around, only to feel that the fatigue she had been feeling for a while seemed to have ended with what happened last night.

At this moment, even if she didn't want to admit it, she couldn't hide the lightness of her body.

Who would have thought that the previous tiredness was all due to unfulfilled desires?

Telling it to others is really embarrassing!

After a simple wash, she came down from upstairs. The old housekeeper saw her and greeted her with a smile: "You look much better than yesterday."

"Yes, you've recovered well. How about Grace?" Lu Xia couldn't help asking since he didn't notice her in the restaurant.

"He said he had something to do at the military headquarters this morning, so he left first. But before he left, he made breakfast for you. I'll bring it up to you."

She didn't expect that the man, even though he was busy, still remembered to prepare breakfast for her. It would be a lie to say that she was not moved.

When breakfast was served, Lu Xia ate while saying to the old housekeeper, "We can make an appointment to meet with the endorsement partner today and ask when they are available. If it's confirmed, we can start filming."

It won’t be long before the beauty cream is on the market.

"I'll contact them right away. Do you still want to go to the research institute later?"

"Yes, I should go. They're making good progress with the hair growth solution. The results should be out in the next two days."

Hearing this, the old housekeeper seemed to be hesitant to speak. Seeing this, Lu Xia couldn't help but say, "If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating?"

"You have just recovered. Would you like to rest for a while?" The old butler only realized at this moment that Duke Lu Xia was actually a workaholic.

I had health problems yesterday and I have to go back to work today. Isn’t that a bit crazy?
Lu Xia knew the old housekeeper meant well and said with a smile, "I'm just going to check on you. I'll be staying home too. Don't worry, I'm much better now."
