Chapter 99 Rewards.

But isn’t this also a kind of scheming?

Smelian had been in Duke Luxia's mansion for such a long time, and he had always been watching Grace and Duke Luxia get along from a bystander's perspective. It would be impossible for him to say that he had not seen or learned anything from it.

He had long seen through that Lu Xia was a soft-hearted person who would not tolerate toughness, and would sympathize with the weak and be soft-hearted.

So his humble plea and serious self-analysis were just to soften Lu Xia's heart and make her focus on him.

It turns out that this trick is effective.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this. Males are born with bad natures and are greedy. It would be fine if there had never been an opportunity, but now that there is an opportunity, how could he not fight for it?

Besides, Lu Xia is such a good female, no one would refuse the opportunity to stay with her.

He even thought meanly that it didn't matter if he couldn't compare to Grace, at least other people hadn't seen Lu Xia's good points yet.

So what if Cecil is a member of the royal family? He still missed the opportunity to stay with Duke Lu Xia. He even hoped that he would never find out.

But he also wanted to see an expression of regret and loneliness on his face in a mean way.

Lu Xia looked at Smellian, whose eyes were slightly red, and sighed softly: "I will consider your request, Smellian. I will pay more attention to you in the future."

But as for grace, she felt that she still needed time.

"Okay, this is fine too. Thank you, Xia Xia." Smelian knew very well that it was impossible to get Lu Xia to agree all of a sudden.

If Lu Xia was really as the rumors said, then Duke Lu Xia might have dragged him to bed on the first day he appeared, so why wait until now?

Now Lu Xia promised him that she would pay more attention to him and would no longer ignore his existence. This was already a big improvement for him.

He was very happy.

"Then why don't you get up?" Looking at Smelian who was still kneeling in front of her, Lu Xia raised her eyebrows.

Smellian hesitated for a moment, but finally, unable to suppress his inner greed, he made a request: "Can you hug me?"

This request was not difficult for Lu Xia to accept. She just didn't expect Smelian to be so cautious even when asking for a hug. It was a bit cute.

"can."

As soon as she finished speaking, she took the initiative to hug Smellian.

The moment he was hugged by the little female, Smellian's nostrils were filled with the unique scent of Lu Xia, a scent that made him greedy.

He carefully held Lu Xia in his arms, as if she were a rare treasure in the world.

He desired a lot, but he also knew that he had gained a lot so far and could not continue to be greedy.

"Xia Xia, thank you." Smellian said, and took the initiative to let go of her hand. "I will remember everything that happened tonight."

Lu Xia smiled and said, "I'm very happy today. Thank you for dinner."

Although happiness is short-lived, Smelian hopes that this moment will never end if possible, but at the same time, he also looks forward to Lu Xia's transformation towards him in the future.

He believed that after this private date, Lu Xia would treat him differently than before.

When we came out of the restaurant, it started to rain lightly outside.

The sound of raindrops has a unique flavor in such a peaceful night.

"I'll go get an umbrella, please wait here." "No need, it's not far, I'll go with you." Lu Xia was not a pretentious person, and the parking lot was not far from them, and the rain was not heavy, so there was no problem going there directly, and there was no need for Smelian to make a special trip.

Smellian hesitated for a moment, took off his coat, and held it above Lu Xia's head: "You still have to cover yourself up. It's cold at night. Don't catch a cold."

Seeing how considerate he was, Lu Xia didn't refuse. She took the clothes and draped them over her head: "Okay, let's go."

After she finished speaking, she took Smellian's arm and walked towards the parking lot with him.

The journey was not very far, but Smelian enjoyed it very much, as if at this moment, he and Lu Xia were the only two people left in the world.

He suddenly felt that this moment might be a reward for him!
After arriving at the parking lot, opening the car door and helping Lu Xia get in, Smellian took his clothes again and sat next to Lu Xia with a smile.

When the car door closed, the sound of rain disappeared and the car was silent. Smellian took the initiative to break the silence: "Are you tired?"

Lu Xia shook her head: "I'm not tired. I had a great time tonight. Thank you, Smellian. I haven't felt this relaxed in a long time."

After Lu Xia finished speaking, he moved closer to Smellian and looked at him with smiling eyes.

This sudden incident made Smelian nervous for a moment. He was not sure what Lu Xia wanted to do when he suddenly approached him like this, so he subconsciously held his breath.

The temperature inside the car also seemed to start rising.

It was raining outside, but no sound could be heard inside.

The atmosphere in the car became ambiguous, and Smellian couldn't help but ask: "You, what's wrong?"

Lu Xia felt that Smelian was very well-behaved at this time, which was completely different from the feeling Grace gave her. Even when Grace was humble, she was full of wild arrogance. She would not be soft-hearted because of Grace's begging. She just didn't want to see someone as powerful as Grace being so humble. She would feel distressed.

Smellian's humility is gentle and harmless, like a small animal begging for food, which makes people feel soft-hearted.

Lu Xia didn't answer Smellian's question. Instead, she raised the corners of her lips, reached out and pinched Smellian's chin. In the man's confusion and astonishment, she kissed him on the face, then smiled and pulled away: "Reward."

Smelian's breathing became heavier, and he subconsciously grabbed Lu Xia's wrist as she left, as if he wanted to keep her.

Lu Xia did not break free from his hand and continued to look at him with a smile.

As if waiting for his next response.

Smellian's voice was a little hoarse when he spoke: "Should I also express my gratitude?"

Obviously, his learning ability is not bad, he is even very smart, knows how to draw inferences from one example, and knows how to be grateful.

Lu Xia seemed to be intrigued and asked him, "How would you like to thank me?"

After making sure that Lu Xia didn't dislike him doing this, Smellian leaned over and gently kissed her on the cheek: "Return the favor."

Lu Xia was amused by his cautious behavior. She reached out and gently stroked Smellian's face, saying with a smile, "I thought you would be a little greedy."

The result is pure like a baby.

"Smellian, I find you kind of cute, that's good, please keep it up."

Lu Xia did not hesitate to express his thoughts. For Smelian, this was the best reward.

He smiled and nodded: "It is my honor to make you happy. I will do my best and not let you down."
