Simon gazed into the clear eyes of the young woman before him. He knew with certainty that Lu Xia was asking him seriously, not just making a polite, empty gesture.
From the moment they met until now, Lu Xia had shown nothing but genuine sincerity.
A soft feeling stirred in his heart. "I'm free tomorrow. May I go then?"
"Tomorrow? Alright, I'll make the arrangements."
"Will you be there?"
"If you'd like me to be, I will."
"Then I hope you will be."
"Alright."
Lu Xia gave him a small smile, as if she would agree to any request he made at that moment. This gentle indulgence made Simon feel as though he was being favored.
He finally understood why those men were willing to stay by Duke Lu Xia's side. It probably wasn't just because Lu Xia could turn them from defective males into Gene Fusion Experts, or for any other reason.
It was because they all received a kind of affection and indulgence from Duke Lu Xia that they had never experienced before.
