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

Chapter 5 Investment.

Looking at the female walking over, Lu Xia searched the original owner's memory to find out her identity. She was Duke Lan Ya, who often hung out with the original owner. Because the two were of similar age and had similar interests, they often accompanied each other to do evil.

Lu Xia watched the other person walk in familiarly and said, "You've come just in time. I'm planning to reopen the No. 1 Institute, but I'm short on funds. Could you please invest some?"

She spoke directly and naturally, as if she was not asking for money but simply saying that the weather was very good today.

Duke Lan Ya opened his eyes wide and looked at Lu Xia in disbelief: "What are you crazy about? If you don't run your business recklessly, you will make money.

Don't mess around!"

Apparently, even Duke Lan Ya, who shared the same views with Lu Xia, did not trust his business acumen.

Lu Xia naturally knew that this was a problem left over from the original owner.

"You can invest with confidence this time. If you make money, I will share it with you according to the investment ratio." Lu Xia's face looked serious, and he didn't seem to be joking.

Lan Ya stared at her for a long time: "No, are you serious? What do you think?"

It was really unexpected for her that her playmate suddenly started to make progress.

"I just don't want to hang around anymore. I want to do something good. Are you interested in joining me?" Lu Xia raised the corner of his lips, looking like he was actively inviting me.

Duke Lan Ya had a wealthy family, she knew from the original owner's memory that instead of letting Duke Lan Ya use the money to hang out outside and bully males, it would be better to use it to do something useful.

"How much do you want?" Duke Lan Ya was a little tempted by Lu Xia's serious look, but she was worried about losing money. After all, the two of them had been together for so many years, and she knew Lu Xia better than anyone else.

"Take 500 million first, and we'll talk about it if it's not enough." When Lu Xia said the 500 million, his tone was as relaxed as if he was saying 5 yuan.

"So much!" Duke Lan Ya was irritated. She thought 1 or 2 million would be enough at most, but Lu Xia asked for 500 million right away, and then asked for "take it first." This meant that the 500 million might not be enough. So, "What exactly are you going to do? Aren't you going to lose money?"

"Whenever you do business, there are risks. I can't guarantee you that it will be foolproof, but I can guarantee that I'm serious this time."

Hearing this, Duke Lan Ya wavered again: "Okay, I'll go back and prepare and call you, but what exactly do you want to do?"

These research institutes of Duke Lu Xia's family were indeed profitable in the past, but after the previous duke passed away and Lu Xia took over, they almost collapsed. Now Lu Xia wants to revive them, and Duke Lan Ya is still nervous, but she also thinks in a contradictory way, what if, what if Lu Xia really succeeds, then she can make money with him!
"You don't need to know what it's about yet, but it's definitely a profitable business. Hurry up, I can only wait for you for two days. If I can't raise the money in two days, I'll find another way." Lu Xia acted as if he didn't need you, which made Duke Lan Ya take this matter to heart. He even felt a sense of crisis, as if he would miss this opportunity and miss it. He nodded and promised, "Okay, I understand. I'll go back and prepare now."

Watching Duke Lan Ya leave in a hurry, Lu Xia thought that the initial investment of 500 million should be enough.

I didn't expect that I would have such an unexpected gain on this trip today.

The gardeners hired by the old housekeeper worked very efficiently. When Lu Xia left, the cleaning work in the garden had been completed, and if nothing unexpected happened, they could start pruning and replanting tomorrow.

Compared to renovating the gardens, hiring researchers with the right expertise was much more involved. However, Lu Xia wasn't too worried. As long as the salary and benefits were adequate, she believed people would still come. As the saying goes, money talks. No matter where you are, there will always be people who bow to reality. So, her reputation wasn't a concern at all.

After returning from Courtyard No. 1, Lu Xia felt extremely weak. She hadn't done anything, she had only walked a few steps. The original owner's physical fitness was really poor. It seemed that she needed to exercise.

I rubbed my sore shoulders and returned to the room, planning to take a hot bath to relax, but unexpectedly I fell asleep in the bathtub.

When she woke up, she saw Grace kneeling beside the bathtub. At that moment, it was as if she had dreamt of the previous night, and she was startled: "Why are you here?"

When she moved, she found that the water in the bathtub had become a little cold. Had she slept for so long?
Grace was still holding a bath towel in her hand, which was obviously prepared for her: "I just came back, and the housekeeper said that you haven't come down for dinner and was a little worried, so she asked me to come up and check on you. I just wanted to carry you out. If you soak in the water for too long, you will catch a cold."

Lu Xia reached out and took the towel from his hand: "I understand, you go out first, I can do it myself."

Grace stood up from the ground after hearing this: "Then call me if you need anything, I'll be outside."

Lu Xia nodded. When Grace was about to turn around, she couldn't help but say, "Don't kneel down casually in the future. I don't like it."

She really couldn't stand it. This behavior of having to kneel down at every turn made her feel like a slave owner.

Grace, who was walking out with her back to her, stiffened. She was obviously a little surprised that Lu Xia would say that. Without turning around, she just said softly, "Okay."

It's not an illusion. As I have more and more opportunities to spend time with Lu Xia, I can naturally feel that there are differences between him and the rumors.

But there are many females who know how to act, and Grace has encountered females who appear very approachable in public but have a devilish face in private.

But Lu Xia did the opposite. She was not well regarded by the outside world, but in private she was completely different.

Grace didn't understand. If Lu Xia was not the kind of person the outside world rumored, why would he behave like that? Could it be that Duke Lu Xia had some unspeakable secret?

Although she guessed this, Grace did not dare to take it lightly, because being cheated is not terrible, what is terrible is being cheated after giving your true heart.

Lu Xia quickly got dressed and came out of the bathroom. The sleep had relieved some of her fatigue, but she had no appetite.

However, Grace behaved well in the evening. She did not stand beside her while she was eating, but sat down with her, which saved Lu Xia a lot of trouble.

Even after dinner, Grace seemed to have nothing to do. He stayed by her side all the time, not saying anything and being quite quiet. However, it was not a good feeling to have someone following her no matter what she did. Finally, Lu Xia turned to look at the man: "You
Don’t you have anything of your own to do?”

Grace was slightly startled, as if she had not expected Lu Xia to ask this. After a moment of silence, she said, "Don't you need my service?"

As the most humble servant in the family, all his behavioral norms must be based on the needs of the mistress, and the needs of the mistress always come first. So no matter what his status is outside, as long as he returns home, he must ensure that when Lu Xia needs him, he can appear at the first time and be on standby at any time.
