Chapter 244. Pleasant.

Kading couldn't voice his doubts, and no one could answer them for him. After all, how could he possibly delve into how people interacted?

If people ask, they might wonder if he has ulterior motives or ulterior motives.

On the contrary, it's inappropriate.

Since Smerian and Cecil obtained authorization to use the training room, they have been coming here frequently.

Currently, individuals with hybrid genes are still very rare, so not many people can use this training room.

So every time I come, I can use it directly without having to queue.

Lu Xia, who was traveling with Simon on the Flower Sea Star trip, was unaware of what had happened at home.

Simon bought a seaside villa in Flower Sea Star. The villa is filled with a light pink flower unique to Flower Sea Star. When the flowers sway in the wind, they really give the feeling of waves.

That's how the flower sea star got its name.

Lu Xia has been here for three days and has already visited all the famous scenic spots in Huahaixing. Today, she plans to rest at home.

Simon cooked himself, which didn't surprise Lu Xia much.

Cooking is practically an essential skill for the males here, and there are even schools that teach it.

All the males in the family can cook, but the difference is between good and bad food.

Grace once tried making it herself, but it didn't taste very good.

Simon pan-fried the steak and prepared red wine. If it weren't for the setting sun outside the window, Lu Xia thought they could have lit candles and had a candlelight dinner.

Instead of eating at the dining table, the two snuggled together on the sofa, with a screen in front of them playing a currently popular movie.

This casual and natural way of getting along made Lu Xia feel very relaxed.

She rarely has a time like this where she doesn't have to think about anything and can put her thoughts aside.

Simon's steak was delicious, tender and just the right amount of meat, which suited her taste perfectly.

After we finished eating, Simon brought out strawberry cupcakes.

Lu Xia looked at him with some surprise.

Simon laughed and said, "Although I really want to say that I made this, I have to be honest. I can't make desserts. I bought this from the cake shop downstairs. I hope you like it."

"It looks pretty good." Lu Xia wasn't disappointed. She hadn't expected Simon to be good at everything, and besides, no one in their family needed to know how to cook. After all, money could solve many problems.

Lu Xia was satisfied after eating a small piece of cake.

Before I knew it, a light rain started falling outside the window. The weather in Huahaixing is always like this; even on a sunny day with bright sunshine, a light drizzle can suddenly start.

Simon brought over a thin blanket and handed it to Lu Xia. Although it wasn't cold, there was always a slightly cool breeze when it rained.

Lu Xia took it and said, "Don't rush, sit down and rest for a bit."

As she said this, she reached out and pulled Simon down, taking his arm and leaning against him.

She loved the feeling of doing nothing on a rainy day, snuggling on the sofa with him watching a movie—it was warm and comforting. Simon's eyes softened considerably because of Lu Xia's actions.

He liked the occasional displays of dependence Lu Xia showed, which gave him a feeling that he had been accepted.

He looked down at the little female nestled in his arms, her gaze fixed on the screen.

Perhaps it was his gaze that was too intense, causing Lu Xia to turn her head to look at him. The moment their eyes met, Simon's deep purple eyes revealed a desire that Lu Xia could understand.

Simon lifted Lu Xia's chin, lowered his head and kissed her. After the kiss, Simon spoke with restraint: "May I ask, Your Grace, for your favor?"

"Don't call me that. You can call me Xiaxia, just like they do."

Simon smiled. He knew very well that from this moment on, he had been completely accepted by Lu Xia.

Some things happen naturally, like water flowing into a channel.

Lu Xia could not resist Simon's attraction.

A light rain was falling outside the window, while inside, the atmosphere was warm and intimate.

……

During the week that Lu Xia and Simon were traveling in the Flower Sea Star, the four cubs of Duke Lu Xia's mansion were discovered. Although no specific photos were released, their exact numbers were known.

The incident stemmed from the topic of natural conception in Courtyard No. 3. As the current head of Courtyard No. 3, Duke Lu Xia has never hidden the fact that he has offspring, but initially he claimed that they were conceived in a breeding box.

However, it has now been publicly stated that females modified with liquid preparations have the ability to conceive naturally, and males transformed from defective products into gene fusion individuals can increase the probability of conception.

Duke Lu Xia possesses both of these factors.

Does this prove that the cubs in Duke Lu Xia's household were not bred through breeding boxes?

Duke Lu Xia was already able to conceive and give birth to cubs naturally a long time ago.

Otherwise, why would the Institute of Fertility have explored the matter of Duke Lu Xia's cubs so many times?

Did they even resort to illegal means in the end?
Someone even posted an analysis thread specifically about this, listing the birth timelines of several of Duke Lu Xia's children as evidence—

"Actually, I've wanted to say this for a while now: the Lu Xia Duke's child was very likely conceived naturally!"

"I can understand why it wasn't exposed at the time. Given the circumstances, if it had been made public, who knows what would have happened to Duke Lu Xia? He would probably have become research material!"

"Putting yourself in her shoes, it's truly fortunate that she wasn't discovered by the Fertility Research Institute. Duke Lu Xia really has a broad mind; she's really willing to share such a good thing!"

"Then I'd like to ask, if it's true, there's nothing that can threaten Duke Lu Xia right now, so why doesn't she claim to have conceived naturally?"

"Why should she tell us this? She has already popularized the research results and benefited the public, isn't that enough? As for whether she has any connections, she can say what she wants to say or not. I think it's perfectly fine. Do you want to keep talking about how much money you have so that everyone knows? It's unnecessary."

"I think so too. Whether Duke Lu Xia conceived naturally or not, what impact does it have? Anyway, the research on natural conception at the Third Institute has never stopped. As more and more people conceive naturally, it won't be a rare thing anymore."

"The only thing I'm looking forward to and curious about now is whether naturally conceived offspring are 100% genetically compatible. I think that's what we should be concerned about."

"We should have results soon, right? I think the first one who got pregnant only has a few months left before she gives birth. There will definitely be news about it then!"
