Chapter 32 Escape.
The next day, Lu Xia took the things to the laboratory. The test results showed that the substance taken from Grace was indeed scales, and it did contain the Black Dragon X1.90 gene.
In other words, through this accidental injury, the gene fusion agent that Grace had injected was activated.
Lu Xia couldn't help but wonder, could this be an opportunity to help Grace change?
As soon as this idea came to mind, Lu Xia couldn't help but get excited.
But unfortunately, Grace cannot be dissected to see what is going on inside.
Thinking of this with a little regret, Lu Xia decided to bring Grace to the research institute for a comprehensive physical examination.
Coming out of the laboratory, the old housekeeper clearly sensed Duke Lu Xia's good mood. Although he didn't know where her good mood came from, he felt relieved to see that she was not heartbroken over a "defective" male.
In his opinion, Grace is good, but he is just a "defective" male after all, broken and broken.
Fortunately, Duke Lu Xia did not feel sad for such a male.
"I'm planning to build Courtyard No. 2 according to the standards of Courtyard No. 1. Please go and make the arrangements. It's best to do it quickly. I need it urgently."
Hearing this, the old butler was not as surprised as the first time. This is why habits are so scary.
After arranging for the old housekeeper, Lu Xia returned home, changed his clothes and went to see Grace immediately, and also prepared a glass of spiritual spring water for him.
When she came in, Grace was leaning against the head of the bed, quietly flipping through a book. If it weren't for his pale face, it would be almost impossible to tell that he was injured.
The embarrassment he felt yesterday was gone, and he cleaned himself up very well.
Lu Xia put the water cup on the table: "How do you feel today?"
When she saw her, Grace put down the book in her hand and looked at her seriously: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
This is obviously a statement that only reports good news and not bad news.
Lu Xia didn't dwell on this question, but said, "Undress yourself, and let me see your wound."
After Lu Xia finished speaking, he clearly felt Grace's body stiffen. Then he pretended to be natural and said, "It's not good to look at. Can you please not look at it?"
The man lowered his head, looking a little depressed.
Lu Xia didn't give him a chance to escape: "Didn't we agree yesterday that you would be my research subject? Are you changing your mind now?"
"No, I didn't, I just..." Grace met Lu Xia's dark eyes and his voice stopped abruptly because he saw the seriousness in the little female's eyes.
Pursing his lips, the man didn't continue, but raised his hand to unbutton his shirt.
Lu Xia's eyes followed the man's hands as he unbuttoned his clothes. At the sutured wound he had seen yesterday, a patch of black, hard-looking scales had grown from a few scattered scales, extending all the way to the collarbone.
It was like a big hand clasping the man's chest, looking a bit ferocious.
Grace had been carefully observing Lu Xia's expression, and he didn't see any disgust or disdain in her eyes, which made him feel better.
There was a hint of surprise in Lu Xia's eyes. She didn't expect that there would be such a big change in just one night.
She reached out and touched the black scale, only to find it was hard and the edges were sharp. "What does it feel like to touch it like this?"
"Itchy." Grace responded with his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he didn't want Lu Xia to see the emotion in his eyes. In fact, with the touch of Lu Xia's fingertips, it was more than just itchy.
For some reason, the place where the scales grew became so sensitive, as if Lu Xia's fingertips were carrying an electric current, leaving a tingling sensation wherever it passed, spreading all over the body.
Lu Xia retracted her fingertips and wanted to ask the man how it felt when this scale grew. When she raised her eyes, she noticed the man's red ears and a strange look in his eyes.
But Lu Xia didn't think much of it. She just thought that her behavior made Grace feel uncomfortable, which made her feel a little embarrassed. She coughed lightly and said, "Rest first. Remember to drink water."
After he finished speaking, Lu Xia turned around and left, going directly to the study to record the information he had obtained from Grace today.
After she left, Grace's tense body slowly relaxed. He picked up the glass of water on the table and drank it all in one gulp. The moment the cool liquid flowed into his body, it relieved the burning sensation in his body and brought him a moment of relaxation.
But soon, it was followed by an even more surging tide of heat, which seemed to be able to swallow him whole.
The burning sensation emanating from her body made Grace arch her back in pain, as if this was the only way to relieve the pain.
The numb and painful feeling appeared again, and he could even hear the cracking sound of scales breaking through the skin during the growth process.
Then he saw his right hand, which was covered with black scales and had long nails growing out of it, looking like claws in his eyes.
After Lu Xia filled out Grace's medical record in the study, he instructed the kitchen to prepare more easily digestible food for Grace's lunch.
In the past two days, she has read some precautions after gene fusion. Although Grace's current situation seems to be different, she is also prepared to treat it as gene fusion.
After giving the kitchen instructions, Lu Xia turned back to his room. As he passed Grace's room, he vaguely heard a faint moan from inside. Lu Xia frowned slightly and quickly stepped forward: "Grace, are you okay?"
As she opened the door, Grace disappeared in front of the bed and hid in the bathroom.
Lu Xia only had time to see his back before he disappeared behind the bathroom door.
It was obvious that something had happened and he didn't want her to see it.
Lu Xia walked over with some worry, but did not rush to open the bathroom door. Instead, he knocked on the door respectfully: "Grace, are you okay?"
Her voice was soft and filled with worry.
Grace stood by the door, enduring the pain in her body, holding back her breath, and responded in a calm voice, "I'm fine, I just want to take a shower. Don't worry, you can go back and rest."
Although the man concealed it well, Lu Xia could still hear the unconcealable repression within him.
"Grace, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me. Don't be patient or worry about anything. No matter what happens, I hope we can face it together. You don't have to bear it alone."
Lu Xia was not surprised. Grace's behavior at this moment was probably because he was worried that he would be abandoned if he showed his embarrassing and vulnerable side in front of her, so Grace was unwilling to show his weakness in front of her. This was not Grace's problem, but the problem of the entire imperial society.
So it seems that males are born with no sense of security.
A guilty creature born with oppression and humiliation.
