Chapter 176: Husband Serves.

Cecil caught Lu Xia's gaze almost the moment she looked over. His heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but wonder: Is Lu Xia talking to the other person about himself?
Smellian also noticed this change and looked up at Cecil: "What's wrong?"

Cecil shook his head.

Lu Xia did not explain. He was not sure whether his judgment was correct, so he did not tell Smelian.

Lu Xia quickly agreed on a meeting time with the nightclub owner. After she ended the call and returned to the table, she found that Smellian and Cecil were looking at her together, their eyes full of concern and inquiry.

Lu Xia smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, this is good news. The Golden Spirit Gene has been found."

Cecil was very surprised by this result. He didn't expect that Lu Xia had already received the news before he even started. It was obvious that Lu Xia had been planning for this matter long before.

"How did it go so smoothly?"

"When I acquired the Ice Spirit Gene, I made an agreement with him that if there were any more alien genes, I would ask him to keep an eye out for them. I never expected that there would actually be one, and it happened to be a Gold Spirit Gene."

Lu Xia was really happy about this matter, with a smile on her face. She had originally thought of going to the black market with Cecil when she had time. After all, the probability of obtaining alien genes there would be higher than outside. She never expected that the nightclub owner would bring her such a big surprise, saving her a lot of trouble.

Smellian knew the importance of this matter and asked with concern, "When can you come over? I'll go with you."

"I have an appointment with him for tomorrow afternoon. If you have something to do, Cecil and I can go together."

Cecil immediately said, "Yes, my sister and I will go together, you go ahead and do your work."

Smellian did have something to do tomorrow afternoon, so he could only nod and say, "Okay, feel free to contact me if you have anything."

After the time was set, the three of them didn't chat anymore and continued to enjoy the happiness brought by the food.

The next afternoon, Cecil followed Lu Xia to the door of the nightclub and suddenly realized something.

"Sister has been here before. Who was she with?"

Lu Xia glanced at him and said, "I came here with a friend to relax, but I don't like the environment here. It's too noisy."

Cecil smiled and replied, "Are you explaining this to me, sister? It doesn't matter. As long as you like it, I'm fine with it. You can call me next time you come here."

Seeing that he misunderstood, Lu Xia smiled and shook her head: "I really don't like it. There probably won't be a next time."

Cecil leaned over and replied with a smile, "Sister, whatever you do is fine."

Lu Xia raised her hand and touched his head: "Okay, stop acting like a spoiled child, let's go in."

When they arrived, the nightclub owner was already waiting in the office.

The other person was still dressed fashionably. When she saw Lu Xia and Cecil come in, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. Then she smiled and said, "Good day, Your Excellency the Duke. You look even more beautiful than last time."

As he said this, he wanted to walk over and gently hold Lu Xia's hand, wanting to give her a kiss.

But he was blocked by Cecil.

The nightclub owner paused for a moment, then looked at the young man in front of Lu Xia with surprise in his eyes. He then looked at Lu Xia and asked, "Who is this?"

"This is Cecil, my partner."

When the words "my partner" appeared, both Cecil and the nightclub owner were slightly startled.

Because the females of the empire rarely use the four words "my partner" when introducing males. Most of them will only say words like "this is my main husband", "my concubine husband", "my servant husband".

It is rare to see females using such intimate terms as "my partner" in such a natural way.

Cecil looked at Lu Xia with eyes full of surprise and emotion. If it wasn't the wrong occasion, he really wanted to hug Lu Xia. Why could this little female always bring him such big surprises?
The nightclub owner glanced at the young man, his face full of envy. "It seems like you two have a good relationship." Lu Xia nodded without denying it. "Where is what I want?"

The nightclub owner immediately asked someone to bring the things he had prepared to Lu Xia.

When the box was opened, Lu Xia saw the sealed Golden Spirit Gene inside and was sure it was what she was looking for. Satisfied, she asked, "How do I pay?"

This was not the first time the nightclub owner had done business with her, and he knew that Duke Lu Xia was not a procrastinating person. On the contrary, she was very decisive in doing things.

"Our master was very satisfied with your gene fusion preparation last time. He wanted to thank you personally, so this Golden Spirit Gene is his thank you gift to you."

Faced with the boss's words, Lu Xia was slightly stunned: "Who is your master?"

Lu Xia really didn't expect that there was someone above the nightclub owner, and the two gene fusion preparations she traded last time were not for her own use, but for the boss's so-called mister.

"Our master is..." He paused suddenly here, glanced at Cecil subconsciously and said, "Simon Lee."

Lu Xia couldn't remember where she had heard this name before, but it sounded familiar, so she asked, "Have I met your husband before?"

"I don't think I know him."

Lu Xia nodded and said, "Then you can arrange it. I have more time, so I'll arrange it according to your husband's schedule."

Seeing that Lu Xia didn't refuse, the nightclub owner smiled and said, "Okay, I'll contact you once I've made the arrangements."

Lu Xia looked at the Golden Spirit Gene in the box again and said, "But I can't take this for free. How much is it? Name your price."

She knew very well that there is no free lunch in the world, and that priceless things are the most valuable.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xia was so insistent that the nightclub owner felt a little embarrassed: "I need to consult the master before making a decision."

"Ok, I will wait for you."

"Please take a rest, I'll be back soon." The nightclub owner bowed and walked out of the office.

After he left, Cecil looked at Lu Xia and asked, "Sister, don't you remember who Simon Lee is?"

Lu Xia looked at him: "Do you know him?"

Hearing this, Cecil understood that Lu Xia really didn't remember who Simon Lee was.

This made him wonder if Lu Xia didn't remember his name at the time.

"He is one of my sister's husband's servants, a male from the Earl Li family."

Lu Xia was slightly startled when she suddenly heard Cecil's answer. No wonder she felt that the name sounded familiar. It turned out that she had seen it in the information Grace had popularized for her.

Lu Xia was both surprised and not surprised by this, and even felt a little bit like "Sure enough, I found another husband to serve me."

"Sister..." Seeing Lu Xia silent, Cecil said, "Sister, don't you want to see him?"

Lu Xia shook his head: "Not really, I just didn't expect it."

Cecil wanted to say something more, but at this moment the nightclub owner came in from outside and said with a smile, "I have just agreed with you, sir. You want to pay 500 million."

500 million to buy a Golden Spirit Gene is really too cheap.

After learning that the other person was her husband's servant, Lu Xia didn't say anything and directly gave 500 million. Before leaving, she even took the initiative to tell the nightclub owner, "Contact me when you have a meeting time."
