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

Chapter 75 Visitors.
Smelian's words surprised Lu Xia a little. What surprised her was not the fact that Mrs. Raphaeld needed her to come to her house, but Smelian's attitude.
Grace looked normal, as if she wasn't surprised at all.
As a former "defective" male, he could understand Smellian's thoughts.
"Why?" Lu Xia put down the cutlery and looked at Smelian seriously, as if he wanted to listen to his reasons.
In fact, she could guess the answer to the question, but she didn't expect Smelian to be willing to express it so bluntly.
"Because I am your husband's servant now, I have little to do with the Rafaeld family. My mother wanted to rely on your honor, and she should have told you personally. I don't want to make excessive demands on you because of this. You have no such obligation to do anything for me or the Rafaeld family."
To put it bluntly, Lu Xia doesn't owe them anything.
"But this isn't an unreasonable request. Logically, I should also visit the Raffield family, just as Grace did back then. I'll arrange a time, and then I'll go back with you. The next time Mrs. Raffield writes to you, you can tell her this."
Smelian didn't expect that even after he said that, Lu Xia was still willing to go back with him. He was a little confused.
"Why?" This time it was his turn to ask.
Lu Xia smiled and said, "As you said, you are mine now. Visiting your family is a sign of respect for the Rafelde family. I also heard that your family has transportation routes to various star systems. Is that true?"
"Well, the Raffield family mainly relies on transportation. Do you have any needs in this area?"
"Not now, but there's no guarantee that there will be in the future. After all, being on good terms with the Rafaeld family is a win-win situation for me. But Smellian, you don't need to think too much about it. Just do your own thing. As for the relationship between the Duke's Mansion and the Rafaeld family, it has no impact on our relationship."
She didn't need to use Smellian as a medium to exchange for anything.
Smelian was surprised that Lu Xia was not opposed to this kind of thing, and was even willing to do it. This surprised him a little.
After all, if any female were to encounter this kind of thing, she would feel that she was being exploited.
"Xia Xia has her own principles in doing things. You don't have to think too much." Seeing his look of disbelief, Grace couldn't help but explain.
Smellian looked at him and couldn't help but wonder if Grace had experienced everything he was going through, which was why she was so calm.
He nodded, and his mood, which had been irritated by receiving the video from Mrs. Raphaeld, improved.
He discovered that Lu Xia could really give people a sense of security, no matter what she said or did.

The next evening, Duke Leslie and Prince Li Mang came to Duke Luxia's mansion together.
The old butler arranged for someone to receive him outside the door early in the morning.
Lu Xia ushered the two in and greeted them with a smile. "I was just thinking you'd be here soon, so let me introduce you. This is Admiral Snoop, Grace's direct superior, and this is Grace's adjutant. Today is our private gathering, so please don't be too polite."
Admiral Snopes was relatively calm when he saw Duke Leslie and Prince Limang again. Grace's adjutant was indeed a little reserved, as he really didn't have much contact with these two people on a daily basis.
Now that he suddenly appeared, he didn't know how to respond. Fortunately, neither Duke Leslie nor Prince Li Mang seemed to have too many demands.
He couldn't help but think that the female masters who were on good terms with Duke Lu Xia were indeed very approachable.
In fact, Duke Leslie and Prince Li Mang did not expect that Lu Xia would actually invite two males to his home. After all, in today's empire, females are respected. No matter what family background or social status a male has, he is inferior to a female.
However, because they were familiar with Lu Xia's style of doing things, they felt that this was indeed something Lu Xia could do, and they all accepted it well.
If someone else did this, they might have to think about whether it was a humiliation.
But if it were Lu Xia, it would not be the same. Admiral Snopes and Grace's adjutant were both people who had a direct relationship with Grace, and tonight was a private banquet to celebrate Grace becoming a major general. Everything started with Grace.
They are only qualified to participate because they are good friends with Lu Xia.
Only Lu Xia can treat males so well.
Looking at the undisguised smile on Duke Leslie's face, Princess Li Mang couldn't help but sigh again that her family didn't have a decent son, otherwise, she would definitely want to marry into the Duke Lu Xia family.
"Now that everyone is here, let's take a seat. I don't know what everyone likes to eat, so today's meal will be mainly buffet. Don't be polite." Lu Xia led everyone to the restaurant. Grace and Smellian saw the newcomers and stood up to greet them.
Unexpectedly, everyone in the restaurant had Lu Xia's other wife and servants, so they couldn't help but glance at Smellian.
Prince Li Mang was more direct: "Who is this? Why haven't I seen him before?"
"This is Smellian, and he's mine." Lu Xia didn't hesitate at all and directly introduced Smellian's identity, but did not mention his family. He only said the three words "my man", which was enough to show the significance of Smellian's existence in this family.
Duke Leslie silently looked at Smellian. Looking at his white hair and golden eyes, he naturally guessed his relationship with the Rafaeld family.
Unexpectedly, Duke Luxia's second husband turned out to be from the Rafaeld family.
Although the Raphaeld family has no title, they are very wealthy. Their purpose of sending their own family members to Duke Luxia is very simple and not difficult to guess.
After greeting a few people, Smelian didn't say anything more. He was very clear about his position today. This was a celebration banquet held for Grace, and his appearance was already a kindness from Duke Lu Xia.
So why would he steal Grace's limelight and bring trouble to Lu Xia?
Because it was a private party, the atmosphere was very good. Admiral Snope and Grace's adjutant were talking to Grace, while Lu Xia was responsible for entertaining Duke Leslie and Prince Li Mang. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
At this moment, the old housekeeper came in from outside, subconsciously glanced at Smellian, then leaned over to Lu Xia's ear and whispered, "Madam, Mrs. Raffield is here."
Lu Xia was stunned for a moment, then she looked at Smellian and saw that he looked normal. When he met her gaze, there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Lu Xia nodded, knowing that Smelian might not be aware of Mrs. Raffield's presence. "Let her in."
