Chapter 48 Guidance.

The boy's rebuttal made his mother's face even uglier. She raised her hand to continue hitting the boy, and her strength was so great that she even broke free from the staff's restraints.

Seeing the young man about to be beaten again, Lu Xia couldn't bear it any longer and shouted, "Grace, control her!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Grace had already pulled the other person away.

As if she hadn't expected someone to actually hit her, the female yelled, "How dare you do this to me, knowing who I am, you're done for! As a male, you actually assaulted a female! I'm going to report you and put you in jail..."

Lu Xia walked up and slapped the man in the face, cutting him off. "Who the hell are you? How dare you send my people to jail? Is this how your staff responds to something like this?"

After teaching the disobedient female a lesson, Lu Xia turned around and glanced at the staff standing next to him.

A bolder staff member said, "Sir, please calm down. This kind of thing happens all the time here, and we can't do anything about it. After all, this is a family matter!"

"If you can't handle household chores, how can you handle the beating incident? Even if his gene fusion failed, he is still a human being, and still a child. As a mother, you shouldn't humiliate him in public. What's more, he just failed in gene fusion and didn't do anything wrong. Does that mean that people who fail don't deserve to live in this world?" Lu Xia was really amazed. She didn't understand what these people were thinking.

Is gene fusion really that important?

None of the families have mines or thrones to inherit.

Lu Xia's words caused the whole place to fall into silence, but she hadn't finished yet: "Aside from certain jobs, what's the difference between a gene fusion person and a loser? Are they unable to work or live independently? Do you think you should treat your own child this way? Oh, right, you just said what your identity is. Let me hear if there's a throne to inherit in your family!"

The female, who was caught in Grace's hand and unable to break free, glared at Lu Xia and said, "I am Viscount Monlisa!"

"You're just a viscount, yet you dare to be so presumptuous? Then, in the name of the Duke, I will send you to receive education. Do you have any objection?"

Lu Xia never thought that one day he would use his status to pressure others, but it turned out to be surprisingly useful!
Hearing her mention that she would send her to receive education as a duke, Viscount Monlisa's face turned pale, and his arrogance subsided. He asked tentatively: "I wonder which duke you are?"

"I'm Duke Lu Xia." Lu Xia didn't hide anything. After giving his reply, he looked at the staff and said, "You guys take care of her. I'll take the child away."

Since Lu Xia had already revealed his identity, the staff did not dare to be negligent any more. They quickly agreed and took the other party away.

Viscount Monlisa did not struggle anymore, as if he had already accepted his fate.

A farce ended just like that. Lu Xia was actually not happy in her heart. She knew very well that no matter how much she said, she was powerless to change the current situation of the empire regarding "defective products". Moreover, she did not have the energy and ability to change this situation. If she had not happened to encounter it today, she would not have cared.

After everyone left, Lu Xia looked at the confused boy standing beside him and asked, "What's your name?"

The boy slowly raised his head: "Gallon."

Lu Xia nodded: "Just like I said just now, I will provide you with a job and you can stay with me temporarily. If you find a better place in the future, you can leave at any time. I will not stop you if you want to go home, but you have to think carefully about whether your mother will still treat you like this. I can help you once, but I can't help you for a lifetime. How you want to live depends on you." No one has ever said such words to him, and no one stood up to help him when he was scolded and beaten by his mother. The world was cold and ruthless to him.

But today, Lu Xia suddenly appeared like a ray of light, saving him from dire straits, and even willing to provide him with a job and point out the direction.

Galen suddenly knelt down: "Thank you very much, I didn't know how to..."

"Get up!" Lu Xia was really fed up with the way these males in the Empire kept kneeling. Before the boy could finish, he interrupted him without even waiting a moment. He turned to Grace and said, "Pull him up."

Grace saw the embarrassment that the young female couldn't hide in her eyes, and with a smile in her eyes, she pulled Gallon up and said, "My mistress doesn't like people kneeling to her. If you have anything to say, you can stand and say it. You don't need to kneel."

Garen nodded frantically, looking like he had done something wrong.

"There's no need to say thank you. Just wait here with me. Grace, go get the check-up." She didn't need the boy's thanks, because his thanks would be powerless and pale at this moment.

What she wants to see more is the other person's future attitude towards life, and not to let his life become depressed because of temporary suffering.

Grace looked at Lu Xia with gentle eyes, and felt that his female mistress was emitting a warm light at this moment!

He knew very well that Lu Xia's quality that could illuminate everything would bring a lifetime of glory to the young man in front of him!

He was even a little jealous. How great it would be if he could meet such a person in his youth!

But it’s not too late for him now!

"Okay, I'll go over now. You guys wait a moment." Grace didn't hesitate any longer. He had never felt more urgent than at this moment to become stronger and become Duke Lu Xia's strongest backing. He also wanted to provide a solid foundation for his little female.

After watching Grace leave, Lu Xia took the bewildered boy to a rest area to wait, and asked the staff there to pour him a glass of warm water to calm him down.

Galen held the water cup carefully. He had not yet digested everything that had just happened and looked a little dazed.

"Grace is my husband. Like you, he is an orc whose gene fusion failed. But not long ago, his beast gene was activated, and now he is a gene fusion." Lu Xia suddenly whispered these words to him, and the boy's originally confused eyes suddenly brightened.

Galen stammered, "How, how, how is this possible?"

How can people whose gene fusion fails still have a chance to awaken?

"As long as you don't give up on yourself, everything is possible. Even if Grace wasn't a gene fusionist, he was still an excellent officer. Despite being a defective product, he was a colonel in the Empire. So what I want to tell you is that the failure of gene fusion is really not that important. You can still become the person you want to be through hard work."
