Chapter 154 heard.
Recently, the second generation of hair growth liquid and beauty cream developed by No. 1 Hospital is nearing completion, and the publicity department has already started to make efforts. Everyone has high expectations for the second generation of hair growth liquid and beauty cream.
With the 3 million yuan provided by the Dafelno family, it is enough for them to carry out subsequent research and development and publicity.
The No. 50 Hospital has never stopped its research on gene fusion preparations. Although they cannot be officially sold, they are still working on increasing the probability of gene fusion preparations. So far, the probability has increased from 65% to %. Of course, Lu Xia is not going to make this news public.
However, most of the volunteers received have successfully activated the animal genes in their bodies and become gene fusionists.
This news still spread quietly among the people, but most people regarded it as a rumor and did not believe it.
After all, in the minds of many people, becoming a gene fusionist is a very difficult thing. Otherwise, there would not be so many defective males in the empire.
Deep-rooted ideas cannot be changed or eliminated overnight.
Maybe one day, we will have to officially announce to everyone that gene fusion preparations can 100% activate the animalization genes in males before we can change all this, but it is definitely not now.
As for the research on the Ice Spirit Gene, it was progressing faster than Lu Xia had imagined. In essence, it was similar to the Fire Spirit Gene. With the Fire Spirit Gene as a foundation, the research and development of the Ice Spirit Gene was very rapid, and the acceptance of the experimental subjects was also very high. However, for safety reasons, Lu Xia asked the researchers to increase the number of experimental subjects and ensure that the testing of the Ice Spirit Gene was more reliable.
As get off work was about to end, Lu Xia suddenly received a voice invitation from Mrs. Dana: "Xia Xia, do you have time to come out for a drink?"
Faced with the sudden invitation, Lu Xia was a little surprised, but did not refuse. After asking for the address, Lu Xia sent a message to the old housekeeper and Smellian, informing them that she would be home late today and there was no need to prepare her dinner, as she was going to have dinner with Mrs. Dana.
When she arrived, it was a very stylish restaurant. Mrs. Dana was already waiting for her in the private room. Led by the waiter, Lu Xia entered the room. When Mrs. Dana saw her, she smiled and waved.
Lu Xia approached and asked, "Have you been waiting long?"
"I just arrived too. I was afraid that you were not familiar with this place, so I came a little early. Please sit down. I just ordered some of the local specialties. Do you have anything to add?" Mrs. Dana handed her the menu and seemed to be in a good mood.
Lu Xia took it with a smile, opened it and took a look, ordered another serving of fruit salad, and then returned the menu to the waiter.
She looked at the decoration of the box. The decoration here was somewhat classical and looked very distinctive. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows next to it, she could clearly see the musical being performed outside.
Most of the people who come here to eat and watch are females.
Mrs. Dana noticed her gaze on the musical and explained with a smile, "I often come here. The musicals here are pretty good, and the atmosphere is great. I came here today thinking you might have time, so I invited you. I hope it didn't interfere with your work?"
Lu Xia smiled and replied, "How could that be? It's time to get off work now. I haven't relaxed in a while. I also want to thank Madam Dana for inviting me, otherwise I wouldn't have known there was such a great place."
The two ate and talked, and time passed quickly. The soft music in the room made people relax. Lu Xia really had no interest in musicals. She glanced at them and then turned her attention away. At most, she just thought their costumes were gorgeous. Mrs. Dana seemed to notice this and didn't say much. She just asked, "What is your impression of Cecil, Xia Xia? I hope to hear the truth from you."
Lu Xia knew that Madam Dana must have invited her for something else, but she didn't expect it to be about Cecil. She was slightly stunned and silent for a moment before she said, "I don't know much about Cecil, but he should be a good male."
After all, Madam Dana is a principled and self-disciplined female, and any male she raises shouldn't be too bad. Upon hearing this, Madam Dana knew that Cecil's presence with Duke Luxia had been nothing more than a check on him for the past few months.
She had thought Cecil was clever, but he turned out to be a fool.
She heard that Smelian had already moved into Duke Lu Xia's master bedroom, but Cecil had made no progress. It would be a lie to say that she was not anxious, otherwise she would not have invited Lu Xia today.
"Cecil may not be flexible in terms of feelings. I hope Your Excellency the Duke will understand."
Realizing what Madam Dana meant, Lu Xia smiled faintly. "Actually, I think relationships still depend on fate. Forcing things will always be inharmonious. Besides, Cecil is still young, so there's no need to arrange a marriage so early. When he's older, he can meet a woman he likes. If that woman happens to like him too, wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?"
Madam Dana wasn't sure what Lu Xia meant by this, so she asked directly, "Will you help Cecil?"
"If Cecil really meets someone, I would certainly be willing. Don't you think it's a very lucky thing to meet the one you love, Madam Dana?"
Mrs. Dana understood that Lu Xia might not really have any intentions towards Cecil in that regard, and simply wanted to keep him in the Duke's Mansion without severing ties with him. It might just not be appropriate now, or he might be worried that severing ties with Cecil would have a bad influence on Cecil, and he didn't go that far for her sake.
She had never met a female who cared so much about a male.
She felt that if Cecil could not win the favor of Duke Lu Xia, it would definitely be a loss for Cecil.
She suddenly changed her mind and felt that Cecil might still have a chance if he stayed with Duke Luxia. After all, Smellian was the best example, wasn't he?
Mrs. Dana smiled and didn't continue the topic. When the performance ended, Lu Xia and Mrs. Dana's gathering also ended. The two separated outside the restaurant. Lu Xia thanked Mrs. Dana again for the invitation: "It was a pleasant day today. I will treat you to dinner another day."
Mrs. Dana did not refuse and responded with a smile: "Okay."
After watching Lu Xia leave, Mrs. Dana looked at Cecil who walked out from the shadows.
"Did you hear everything?"
Cecil leaned against the wall and nodded dejectedly.
Seeing his expression, Lady Dana said with some disdain: "It's too early for you to give up now. If Smellian can do it, why can't you?"
Cecil retorted, "I'm not ready to give up. What Smellian can do, I can do too. Mother doesn't have to worry about me anymore. I know what I should do."
In the past, his thinking was too shallow and he missed many opportunities, but now he has figured it out and he won’t do that again.
Upon hearing this, Lady Dana stared at him for a moment, as if to confirm whether he was telling the truth: "You'd better think it through and do what you say, otherwise I will look down on you."
