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

Chapter 153 Chapter : Change.

Smelian saw Lu Xia coming in from outside with roses in his arms, and Cecil was with him. He raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised. Cecil seemed to have come to his senses.

Although Cecil's expression looked the same as usual, the joy between his brows was hard to conceal. Lu Xia handed the rose in her arms to the old housekeeper and said, "Take good care of it."

The old butler smiled and said "OK", and couldn't help but glance at Cecil, thinking: This guy finally did something right.

Lu Xia said hello to Smelian and went back to her room to wash and change clothes.

Cecil looked at Smellian and asked, "Do you have anything to say?"

Smellian shrugged and said, "What are you talking about? The flowers you sent are beautiful, or why did you think of sending flowers?"

"Can't I send flowers?"

Smellian saw that Cecil was trying to show off, but he didn't intend to satisfy his intention.

"Of course, as long as you're happy."

Having said this, Smellian did not forget to smile at him, looking particularly friendly.

Cecil looked at Smellian who turned around to help the old butler set the table, and felt that his punch seemed to hit cotton again. Smellian didn't seem to care at all that he wanted to draw Duke Lu Xia's attention. Why could he be so calm?
He gritted his teeth, feeling very unwilling, but unable to find an outlet to vent his anger.

When Lu Xia changed her clothes and came down to eat, Cecil took the initiative to pull out the dining chair for her.

Smellian took in this scene, but said nothing. He simply handed Lu Xia a glass of warm water and asked, "Did work go well today?"

Lu Xia smiled and replied, "It's going very well."

Such daily conversations happen almost every day at home. They seem simple but are very warm.

Cecil listened to the two chatting casually and felt envious. He couldn't be as natural as Smelian. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Your Excellency, there's a play coming up at the Grand Theatre. When are you free? I'll invite you to see it."

Cecil said this with a hint of nervous anticipation.

Lu Xia didn't expect to receive another invitation after sending flowers. Just as she was about to respond, she heard Smelian say, "Will there be too many people going to the theater to watch a play? Will it be unsafe?"

Lu Xia understood what Smelian was worried about. It was indeed not appropriate for her to go to a crowded place at this time. Besides, she had no interest in dialogue dramas. Meeting Cecil's expectant eyes, she said apologetically, "If you want to watch it, we can watch it together at home."

Being rejected, Cecil pulled the corners of his lips, gave an unnatural smile, and said, "Okay, then we'll go when it's convenient for you."

Having said that, silence returned to the table.

After dinner, Smellian approached Cecil for the first time and said, "I don't mind if you invite Xia Xia out on a date, but don't go to crowded places. She has a special condition right now, so she needs to be extra careful about her safety."

Cecil said sarcastically, "Are you now even going to control where His Excellency the Duke goes?"

Smellian looked at Cecil, who knew nothing, and said, "I'm just reminding you that Xia Xia's safety is more important than anything else."

He left without explaining to Cecil.

Cecil rubbed his hair irritably, feeling that Smellian was provoking him and showing off his special status in front of Duke Lu Xia.

Just as Smelian was about to return to the master bedroom, he saw Lu Xia on the stairs who was about to go downstairs. Their eyes met, and Smelian instantly realized that Lu Xia had seen him approaching Cecil.

Sure enough, the next second, Lu Xia asked, "What did you say to Cecil? He doesn't seem very happy."

Smellian bit his lip and said, "I'm just reminding him not to go to crowded places when he invites you out. You have a special condition now, so you should pay more attention to your safety." At this point, Smellian looked at Lu Xia anxiously and asked, "Do you think I'm crossing the line by doing this?"

"Don't think too much, Smellian. I don't mean to blame you. As far as I'm concerned, it's enough for you and Cecil to not fight."

After she finished speaking, she walked over and hugged Smelian, then added, "But Cecil probably doesn't know what my current situation is. Aren't you going to tell him?"

Smellian was slightly startled: "I thought you didn't want to say it."

"No, since he is now a member of this family, he will know it, and I believe he won't say anything nonsense."

Smellian nodded when he heard this: "Okay, I'll find a chance to talk to him."

Lu Xia felt a little embarrassed to tell others about her pregnancy, so she said casually, "Don't be too serious about it. Just let it be."

"What are you going downstairs for?"

"Oh, Little Grape and the brooder are downstairs. I want to go take a look. Do you want to come with us?"

"Okay."

When the two arrived at the restaurant, they happened to see the nanny holding Little Grape and eating fruit puree in the restaurant. Little Grape can now eat some complementary foods and no longer relies solely on milk.

Seeing Lu Xia, Little Grape happily stretched out his chubby little hands and shouted “Ah, ah”.

Lu Xia walked over and held Little Grape in her arms. Little Grape immediately hugged her neck and rubbed against her.

Smelian went to pour Lu Xia a glass of warm water, and when he came back, he took the little Grape from Lu Xia's arms.

Little Grape is very well-behaved. Anyone in the family can hold him. When held in Smelian's arms, Little Grape reached out to grab his hair, and then grabbed his own hair, as if telling everyone that they are different.

Smellian held up Grape with a smile in his eyes, and the little guy immediately laughed very happily.

He couldn't help but wonder, when his own baby is born, will it be as cute as this?

Lu Xia drank some water and played with Little Grape for a while. It was getting late, so she let the keeper take Little Grape away.

Looking at the innocent and happy little Grape, Lu Xia couldn't help but think of Grace.

Several days have passed, and there is still no news from Grace. It would be a lie to say that I am not worried, but on the bright side, no news is also a kind of good news.

Noticing Lu Xia's dejected look, Smellian's heart tightened slightly. He walked over and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, don't worry, let's go back and rest." Lu Xia smiled at Smelian and said nothing.

After a dreamless night, Lu Xia received a 3 million yuan compensation from the Dafelno family on her phone the next morning. It must be said that the Dafelno family was quite true to their word.

The moment the funds arrived, Xiweier also sent a message: "The compensation has been deposited into the institute's account. Your Highness, please check it."

"I have received it. Let's end this matter here."

"Your Excellency, please consider my other proposals."

Obviously, Xiweier's mind is not dead yet. Lu Xia is really confused about what kind of image he has in the eyes of the Dafelno family?
She did not reply to the message because she could not agree to anything else from the Dafelno family. For her, with the arrival of 3 million yuan in funds, her relationship with the Dafelno family was completely over.
