Chapter 189 Crisis.

Cecil's gene-fusion celebration party was a great success.

The next day, the news spread throughout the upper-class aristocratic circles.

Because Lady Dana's status is much higher than that of Duke Leslie and Lady Raphaeld, the attention she receives is also different.

Although Her Majesty the Queen reluctantly accepted Lady Dana's previous explanation, hearing the news again still made her feel upset and uneasy.

There is a special feeling that while I am living in dire straits, Mrs. Dana is doing very well.

In fact, the two have been competitors since childhood, and Lady Dana has always been the most favored female cub of Her Majesty the Queen because of her easy-going personality, and she has also been placed with high hopes.

If she hadn't used a lot of tricks before, she wouldn't have won this position in the end.

Now she was in crisis, and everyone was waiting to see her laugh. But at this moment, Madam Dana's defective son became a gene fusion human and even held a celebration party to let everyone know how well Madam Dana was doing now. Compared to the two, she was simply the loser at a disadvantage.

This was an unbearable humiliation for her, who was very concerned about her reputation.

Thinking of Lu Xia, the culprit who caused all this, Her Majesty the Queen hated him immensely.

If she hadn't developed that crappy gene fusion agent, he wouldn't be in this situation today. All of a sudden, all the new and old grudges came flooding back.

She knew very well that the other party was actually making a contribution to the people of the empire by doing this, but she could not care less and she needed to find an outlet to vent her anger.

So that day, Lu Xia was still resting at home when he received the news from the research institute.

The Empire sent an inspection team to check whether there was any illegal research in Courtyard No. 1 and Courtyard No. 2. This was an order issued personally by Her Majesty the Queen.

After learning about this, Lu Xia was silent for a moment, then told the heads of the two research institutes to investigate.

She knew very well that last night's public celebration of Cecil becoming a gene fusionist had most likely upset Her Majesty the Queen, which was why she came to cause trouble today.

Mrs. Dana also received the news quickly and contacted Lu Xia as soon as she knew about this.

Lu Xia answered the call, and Madam Dana's anxious voice echoed: "Xia Xia, are you okay? It's all because of me that Her Majesty the Queen is angry with you."

"It's okay, Madam Dana. I anticipated this. There's nothing to be afraid of. There's only so much they can find in my research institute. Just let them investigate."

Lady Dana heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that she seemed to have been prepared for this, but she still said, "Her Majesty the Queen is very narrow-minded. Be careful of what she might do!"

"Even if she wants to cause trouble, she should at least produce reasonable and legal evidence."

Seeing that Lu Xia didn't seem to care, Madam Dana still said worriedly: "I will send someone to keep a close eye on it. If there is anything, please contact me in time."

"Yes, Lady Dana."

After the call ended, the old housekeeper brought Lu Xia a glass of warm water and asked with concern, "Is it really okay, ma'am?"

"Who knows? It all depends on what Her Majesty the Queen wants to find out and what kind of crime she wants to accuse me of before she can calm down." However, Lu Xia paused and smiled, "If she really does resort to some tricks, it would be an opportunity." The empire is in turmoil, and Her Majesty dares to act so recklessly at this time. She doesn't mind giving Her Majesty a little more scorn.

The gene fusion agent has been successfully developed, with a success rate that has increased from 50% to 65%, and now reaching 80%. It is fully qualified for market release. I'm sure the entire empire will be shocked once this news is made public. Since Her Majesty is so concerned about this matter, she doesn't mind announcing it in advance to make everyone happy.

The old housekeeper was very impressed to see that Lu Xia remained calm and didn't panic at all because of such a thing. He also said with concern: "If you have anything, just tell me."

"I know. Everything's fine right now, don't be so nervous. Did you receive the clothes I bought online two days ago?"

"They have all been received and placed in the new brooding room that was prepared in advance."

Lu Xia recently bought a lot of new clothes for the baby in her belly. After all, she has been recuperating at home recently and has too much free time. It would be boring if she didn't find something to do, so she simply started shopping and couldn't stop buying.

Besides, she already has a little kid at home, so buying these baby products will not attract too much attention from others.

The things had already arrived upstairs. Lu Xia said in a good mood, "Some of these things are for Little Grape."

Seeing that she was still in such a mood, the old housekeeper knew that she really didn't care about this matter, so he felt relieved.

But Cecil was worried after learning about this.

Seeing him hurried back home, Lu Xia knew what was going on without having to think about it. She smiled and said, "Things aren't that bad yet. Don't overthink it."

Cecil, who had originally wanted to go home to comfort Lu Xia, was somewhat moved by what he heard. He did not expect that it was Lu Xia who came to comfort him at this time.

Cecil felt a little complicated because of Lu Xia's sudden comforting behavior.

She turned to see the worry on the younger male's face, knowing that Cecil was probably genuinely worried about her.

He smiled and stroked the other's golden hair: "Speaking of which, your gene fusion level should be improved at home. I will ask the old housekeeper to prepare the venue for you in advance."

In addition to Cecil, Simon should also be used later.

"I'm not in a hurry, sister. It's not too late to promote me after this is over. It's because of me that the Queen noticed you."

"Don't say that. Don't blame yourself for other people's mistakes. Even if you weren't there, Her Majesty would still have noticed me. The birth of the gene fusion agent was beyond her expectations. It's normal for her to be unhappy, but we have to do it."

"Besides, things aren't that bad. I have ways to deal with it, so there's no need to worry. Even if the worst happens, I still have you guys here, so there's nothing to be afraid of. I believe you will protect me well, right?"

"Yes, sister, we will all protect you well and will never let you get hurt. Please believe me."

"Of course I trust you, so you don't have to worry. Look at all the clothes I bought for the little one. Don't they look good?"

As Lu Xia spoke, she brought the clothes to Cecil with a smile in her eyes. At this moment, the sun was shining, and Cecil felt that Lu Xia's whole body was glowing.

And all the panic in Cecil's heart was calmed down.
