Chapter 45 Invitation.

Although no one spoke during the meal, Smellian could feel that the intimacy between Duke Luxia and Grace was not fake.

The two of them would occasionally comment on which dish on the table tasted good. The natural atmosphere was so warm that people didn't feel uncomfortable.

Everything is harmonious to the point of being abnormal.

Lu Xia was halfway through his meal when he remembered that there was an extra person, Smellian, at the table tonight.

I couldn't help but look up and caught a glimpse of the man staring at his bowl in a trance. "Smellian, is your dinner to your liking? If there's anything you're not eating, you can tell the butler."

At this moment, Smellian truly felt like a guest, and Duke Luxia was treating him as the host.

This shouldn't be a big deal, but compared to Grace, it's very different.

"It's delicious, thank you. I don't have any dietary restrictions."

"That's good." Lu Xia seemed relieved, then asked, "What kind of job are you doing now?"

When Smellian suddenly heard this question, he said to himself, "As expected."

As expected, Duke Lu Xia didn't remember his name and had never known him.

"I'm currently working as a surgeon at the Imperial Central Hospital." This is also the job that many 'defective' males would choose. Most of their bodies that have not undergone the 'baptism' of the beast gene are unable to do high-intensity and physically demanding work.

The profession of doctor is a stable and respected profession no matter what era.

Even if he is a "defective product", who would care about his identity when life and death are at stake?

However, it is not easy to become a doctor, and only Smelian himself knows the difficulties involved.

Lu Xia didn't expect that he was actually a surgeon and was a little surprised.

But before she could say anything, Smellian said, "If you don't like me going out to work, I can stay at home."

Although I said this, I could sense that he wasn't very willing to do so.

This made Lu Xia look at Grace involuntarily. Grace had said the same thing before.

When I heard it again, it sounded familiar but not surprising. Habits are really scary.

"Work is also a part of your life. You don't have to give it up for anyone. I don't need it here." Lu Xia said and stood up. "Besides, having a doctor at home makes people feel a lot more at ease."

When Lu Xia stood up, Smelian also stood up unconsciously, and then watched Grace leave the table with her.

Thinking about the last words Duke Lu Xia left before he left, was he being praised?
Unexpectedly, Duke Lu Xia was still willing to let him continue working.

This is different from the rumors.

Was this how Grace was bewitched?

"Smellian, are you done eating?" the old butler suddenly asked, bringing Smellian back to his senses from his trance at the table. "I'm done, thank you."

"Then I'll have them evacuated. If you need anything, you can always tell me."

"I know. I can ask Grace's room..."

"He is living in the master bedroom with his wife now. If you want to find him, you can go to the master bedroom." The old butler didn't think about it. Smellian suddenly asked Grace where she lived and what she did.

In his opinion, there has always been competition between males, even if they are both servants of Duke Lu Xia, this is unchangeable. But who is the most favored one can always compete.

This house should be very lively from now on.

Smelian was once again surprised by the old butler's answer.

Duke Luxia actually allowed a servant to live with her.

This is probably a treatment that even the househusband may not be able to enjoy, right?

Lu Xia didn't know what Smelian was feeling. When she returned to her room, she received another video invitation from Prince Li Mang.

When the other party saw Lu Xia appear on the screen, he said even more enthusiastically than last time, "Dear, do you have time the day after tomorrow to come to my place for dinner with Duke Leslie? It's just a small dinner party, not many people, all good friends, so let's have some fun together."

This time when I saw Prince Li Mang again, I felt that her mental state was even better than last time, as if the stone that had been weighing on her heart had finally been lifted.
As he fell, he looked visibly relaxed.

Lu Xia knew that the hair growth liquid would probably be very effective, so Prince Li Mang was so enthusiastic towards her.

Of course, she wouldn't push away this enthusiasm, and said with a smile, "Of course I will go when I have time. I can't bear to refuse His Excellency the Prince's invitation."

"Then it's settled. Come over with Duke Leslie and I'll introduce you to my friends. They all want to meet you, too!"

Shortly after she finished her call with Prince Li Mang, Duke Leslie sent her a video. Apparently, she had also received an invitation from Prince Li Mang.

As soon as the call was connected, Duke Leslie said excitedly, "My dear, I really want to thank you this time. If it weren't for you, I definitely wouldn't have been able to enter Prince Li Mang's circle so quickly."

"No, if that's the case, if His Excellency the Duke hadn't introduced me, I wouldn't have been able to meet Prince Li Mang until now."

"Hahaha, I like what you said. Then let's not thank each other. I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow. Don't move the car. I'll take you back after the trip."

"Okay, then I'll be shameless and trouble you for a moment."

"I'm extremely happy to do so. By the way, I heard that when Prince Li Mang asked you for hair growth liquid last time, she actually didn't have any friends. It was Prince Li Mang who used it herself and it worked quite well. I heard someone say yesterday that she even shared this with others and it seems like she's completely healed."

Duke Leslie's network of connections is indeed very wide.

He even knew such a private matter and told her specifically so that she would be aware of it and not say the wrong thing and then ask Prince Li Mang about her so-called friend, which would be embarrassing.

Lu Xia naturally understood Duke Leslie's intention. After thanking Duke Leslie with a smile, he ended the call.

Since she was going to attend Prince Li Mang's dinner, Lu Xia planned to bring some beauty cream as a gift.

Grace saw how happy Lu Xia looked after she ended the call, and said softly, "The royal family will probably be attending Prince Li Mang's private banquet."

Lu Xia was a little surprised when Grace suddenly reminded her of this. She knew that the empire was controlled by the royal family, but she had never come into contact with them.

If you think about it carefully, given Prince Li Mang's status, it is normal for members of the royal family to attend.

I just don't know who is coming.

As she thought about it, she asked, "Do you know who it will be?"

Grace reached out and naturally smoothed Lu Xia's collar, which had been messed up by her movements. "You also have a husband who is a member of the royal family, Cecil. His mother is Her Majesty the Queen's sister, Lady Dina. She is also somewhat related to Prince Li Mang."
