Healing a Fallen S-Rank Beastman: Everyone Fights Over the Little Female Chapter 51: Matchmaking
Seeing that Lu Xiao remained unmoved even after she thanked Ares, Lu Huan grew even more panicked.
’Was I wrong? Didn’t Lu Xiao always tell to be respectful to Ares?’
’I already thanked him, so why won’t Lu Xiao even look at properly?’
The aning in Lu Huan’s eyes was all too obvious; it was hard for Lu Xiao not to notice.
But even though she saw it, she didn’t want to bother.
She had figured it out. You couldn’t be nice to a brat like Lu Huan. Give her an inch, and she’d take a mile.
When you’re not nice to her, she proactively thanks Ares. Do you think she truly doesn’t understand?
Obviously not. She just deliberately does things to disgust people.
Arriving at the entrance of Earl Hua An Mansion, Lu Xiao said coldly, "How things end between you and Noah depends on this one chance. If you don’t handle it well, you won’t get another. I won’t clean up your ss a second ti. Rember that. Let’s go."
The old butler in charge of receiving them saw Lu Xiao and approached with a smile. "Earl Hua An knew you were coming and had pastries specially prepared. Please follow . As for Lady Lu Huan, she can go directly to young master Noah’s room."
"Very well!" Lu Xiao glanced at Lu Huan. "Decide for yourself what you want to say and do. Have soone notify when you’re done. Please, lead the way."
Lu Xiao politely thanked the old butler and followed him away.
Lu Huan hadn’t expected Lu Xiao to just abandon her after they entered. Left standing there alone, she looked completely helpless.
When she was led to the door of Noah’s room, her mind was still a jumbled ss.
anwhile, Lu Xiao had t with Earl Hua An. Compared to yesterday, the Earl was wearing a form-fitting gown patterned with pink hibiscus flowers, which made her look exceptionally graceful and elegant.
Seeing Lu Xiao enter, Earl Hua An was all smiles, a stark contrast to her previously cold deanor. "You’re such a thoughtful older sister. If only your younger sister were even a little as sensible as you."
"Lu Huan is still young. She’ll be more sensible in the future." Although she looked down on Lu Huan, she couldn’t let outsiders lecture her.
"I spoke with your mother yesterday. I heard that you currently only have one side husband, is that right?"
Lu Xiao’s heart skipped a beat at those words. She looked at Earl Hua An and said, "That is correct. However, I have no plans to take on anyone else at the mont—neither a main husband nor any other husbands. I have no such intentions."
’So please, don’t try to set up with anyone. I’m begging you, I’ve only had a few days of peace!’
Earl Hua An hadn’t expected her to be so blunt. It left her unable to say the words she had prepared.
The smile on her face froze for a mont before she tried to persuade her, unwilling to give up. "You’re still young. You don’t know the benefits of having more people in the family. Now, while you still have the energy, is a good ti to formally expand your family. I have soone here..."
"Earl Hua An, you’re not trying to set up, are you? Thank you, but there’s really no need. I have very high standards. You’ve seen what Ares is like, and even he can only be my side husband!"
With his Major General Level rank, Ares was more than qualified to be her main husband.
She didn’t believe Earl Hua An was powerful enough to introduce her to a Vice Admiral or an Admiral!
Just as she expected, after hearing her words, Earl Hua An completely gave up on the idea of matchmaking.
The person she had wanted to introduce to Lu Xiao was her eldest son. Although he also worked in the military, he was only a lieutenant colonel and truly couldn’t compare to Major General Ares’s rank.
But she was unwilling to let her eldest son beco Lu Xiao’s side husband or just another husband.
Seeing that things couldn’t proceed, her enthusiasm for Lu Xiao waned significantly. ’So what if she’s good? If she can’t be of use to , it’s all for nothing.’
Lu Xiao noticed the change in Earl Hua An’s attitude but pretended not to. As long as the Earl gave up on matchmaking, she was content.
However, Earl Hua An’s actions served as a reminder.
Apparently, in this society, if she didn’t make her attitude and position clear, she was like a walking piece of at that everyone wanted a bite of.
There would probably be many more people trying to set her up like this in the future. She had to think of a solution.
She especially had to nip any similar ideas from Lu Ge Wei in the bud.
"Speaking of which, Lu Huan has been gone for a while. How is their talk going?" Since what Earl Hua An had hoped for didn’t pan out, she no longer wanted to waste effort entertaining Lu Xiao.
Hearing this, the old butler imdiately said, "I’ll go check. Please wait a mont."
With that, the old butler turned and went out. Lu Xiao picked up her teacup and took a sip, only to hear Earl Hua An making small talk to fill the silence, "So what do you do every day?"
Lu Xiao put down her teacup. "I currently work at the Fifth Research Institute. I took special leave to co here today."
"The Fifth Research Institute? Isn’t that...?" Surprise flickered in Earl Hua An’s eyes. She truly hadn’t expected Lu Xiao to work at the Fifth Research Institute. That place was specifically for treating the males from the asylum.
’Lu Ge Wei actually let Lu Xiao go to a place like that? She must be insane!’
"It’s exactly as you think." Lu Xiao admitted it freely. She didn’t think there was anything shaful about treating S-Class males at the Fifth Research Institute.
Which family in the Empire didn’t have a few S-Class males?
"Aren’t you afraid?" Seeing her admit it, Earl Hua An’s feelings were extrely complicated.
She truly didn’t understand why any young female would be willing to work in a place like that.
"Afraid of what? Everyone is very friendly, and the work isn’t hard. Perhaps Earl Hua An has so misconceptions about the Fifth Research Institute? Why don’t you visit in person when you have the ti?"
Earl Hua An’s heart stuttered. ’, go to a place like that? Am I insane? That’s just asking for bad luck!’
"If you want to work, just tell your mother. She could arrange a better position for you. Why go to a place like that for such a thankless job?"
Earl Hua An couldn’t help but show her disdain.
Lu Xiao pretended not to understand the aning behind Earl Hua An’s words and smiled. "Does the Earl Hua An Mansion have any males who have entered the asylum? My lady Earl, if you need, just let know, and I can take extra care of them. You might not know this, but the males from the asylum are all treated in my clinic. So are even close to eting the discharge criteria. If you have any needs, please don’t hesitate to ask!"
Earl Hua An’s heart leaped at her words. ’What does she an, "so are even close to eting the discharge criteria"?’
’S-Class males who enter the asylum can actually leave?’
’If that’s the case, then the ones from our family...’
Before Earl Hua An could speak, the old butler returned with Lu Huan.
Lu Huan trailed behind the old butler, her expression looking particularly helpless, even a little lost.
The old butler walked to Earl Hua An’s side. "Everything has been resolved. Young master Noah has stated that he will not pester Lady Lu Huan in the future, nor will he et with her again."
"In that case, let’s consider this matter settled and never speak of it again." Earl Hua An knew how to handle things. She turned to Lu Xiao with a smile and said, "Lu Xiao, you can go back and report to your mother now."
Earl Hua An was offering her an out, and of course, Lu Xiao would take it. "Thank you for your magnanimity, Earl Hua An. Rest assured, we will discipline Lu Huan more strictly in the future and won’t let her make the sa mistake again. It’s getting late, so we’ll be leaving now. Please, don’t see us out, Earl Hua An."
Watching Lu Xiao leave with her sister, Earl Hua An said to the old butler, "Send soone to the Fifth Research Institute and the asylum. I want to know if anyone is really about to be discharged."
