Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Paying a Visit

When Lu Xiao said she was going to Duke Green’s family to demand an explanation, she wasn’t just talking. However, at first, she hadn’t thought of making Duke Green’s family pay monetary compensation. Now that Teacher Ai Li had come over and suggested it, Lu Xiao suddenly felt she was still lacking in experience.

What’s the use of just making Duke Green apologize? At most, it would only make them lose face.

But if she could get compensation, that would be different. Not only would it make Duke Green’s family lose face, but it would also make them feel the financial sting for a long time. It might even force them to properly discipline their little brats.

After all, people only change when their interests are at stake.

Teacher Ai Li saw the eager sparkle in Lu Xiao’s eyes and patted her shoulder with a smile. "Then I’ll be waiting for your good news."

The Seventh Military District seemed to have many soldiers, but since most of their Spirit Seas were at B-level, checking them wasn’t difficult. Even when encountering A-level ones, with Lu Xiao’s current abilities, handling them was no problem at all.

In fact, because of Lu Xiao, Teacher Ai Li and the others were now handling the military district’s large-scale examination event with ease.

They suddenly discovered that treating the Spirit Seas of these soldiers from the military district was incredibly easy.

After all, the lowest level they usually treated were Early Stage S-Class males.

Now, A-level cases really seemed trivial in comparison.

Realizing this, a sense of pride swelled within the four teachers.

They had never imagined that one day, Spiritual Soothing would no longer be something that filled them with fear and pain, but would instead become something they could handle with ease.

’Wasn’t that something to be proud of?’

This joint examination with the Seventh Military District gave all four teachers a feeling of rediscovering their original passion.

After work, Lu Xiao and Ares went to the parking lot together.

Lu Xiao said directly, "Ares, we’re going to Duke Green’s family."

Ares was slightly taken aback. "Now? Aren’t we going to have dinner first?"

He didn’t mind for himself, but he didn’t want Lu Xiao to go hungry.

But Lu Xiao laughed. "You think we can go to Duke Green’s family and not get a free meal out of it?"

As soon as Ares heard this, he understood that the young female likely had a plan in mind.

Without saying anything more, he opened the car door, and he and Lu Xiao got in.

Ares had never been to the Green Duke Mansion before, but with GPS, it wasn’t hard for the two of them to find it.

Beina, who had been safely escorted home by Admiral Kula Peng earlier, had been fuming all afternoon.

In the meantime, her Father had come to comfort her. To smooth the matter over, he had even taken the initiative to contact Teacher Ai Li, the head of the Fifth Research Institute, and offered to inject 20 million in funding.

Of course, the money was a small matter; the main goal was to prevent Duke Green from finding out. After all, the incident with Beixian had already angered Duke Green once before.

If Duke Green found out that Beina had also been bested by the same person, it would be a disaster.

Unfortunately, things didn’t go according to their plan. The other party didn’t accept their offer of funding.

But unlike her worried Father, Beina didn’t believe that Lu Xiao would actually dare to show up at their door and demand an explanation.

Even though Lu Xiao was a Merit Earl, her mother was a Duke!

’She was just running her mouth, enjoying a moment of verbal victory.’

That’s why Beina was so furious about losing to someone like that!

Until her butler rushed over to report, "Miss Beina, Lady Lu Xiao is really here, and she’s brought her side husband."

"What?" Beina couldn’t believe her ears and shot to her feet. "Has Mother seen her?"

"How could she not? She came under her title as a Merit Earl. Even the Duchess can’t refuse to see her."

A cold sweat broke out on Beina’s back. "Is my Father here? And, and is Beixian home?"

"They’re home. They should have heard the news by now, but I don’t know if they’ll go."

Just as Beina heard the news and was growing restless, Lu Xiao and Ares had already followed the butler of Duke Green’s family into the main hall.

And Duke Green, having heard the news, was already there waiting for them.

Duke Green’s surname was Mu. She had a gallant and handsome appearance. Her clothes weren’t extravagant, but her bearing gave her an almost transcendent aura.

Lu Xiao’s first impression was quite good, but when she thought of Beixian and Beina, that good impression was instantly cut in half.

After all, as the saying goes, bratty kids have bratty parents.

’One shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.’

"Earl Lu Xiao, you are much younger than I imagined. To have achieved such an honor at your age is truly remarkable. You’ve come today about the matter with Beixian, I presume? I had thought that once your bet with her was over, the matter would have ended there."

Clearly, that last sentence was the main point, implying that Lu Xiao shouldn’t be so petty as to hold a grudge over a trivial matter.

How could Lu Xiao not understand? She feigned surprise and said, "Your Grace, don’t you know that I came today because of Beina?"

"Beina?" Duke Green looked confused, and it didn’t seem to be an act. "You know Beina as well? She’s usually quite well-behaved. Don’t tell me she’s caused you trouble too?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Even without knowing the full story, Duke Green’s first instinct was to protect her own family.

However, Lu Xiao didn’t care what she said. Nothing Duke Green could say would change her purpose for coming here today.

"It seems Your Grace doesn’t know your own child very well. Today, at the Seventh Military District, Lady Beina first tried to seduce my partner. After being rejected, she flew into a rage and severely injured him. Shouldn’t you give me an explanation, Duke Green? Are the females of your household a bit too lawless?"

"You’re lying! Mother, I didn’t! How could I be so foolish as to seduce a male who’s already taken? Mother, don’t listen to her nonsense."

Beina, who had been secretly hiding by the door, could no longer stand it after hearing Lu Xiao’s words. She rushed in, knelt by Duke Green’s leg, her face a mask of grievance.

Lu Xiao watched this scene without a hint of surprise in her eyes. In fact, she felt that if Beina hadn’t come out to put on this performance, something would have been missing.

Now, she watched the "performance" with great interest.

Duke Green’s brow was already furrowed. "You truly didn’t do it?"

"No, no! Mother, believe me, I’m not..."

"Are you suggesting, Lady Beina, that Admiral Kula Peng would lie? Or that all the soldiers of the Seventh Military District would lie? Don’t forget, when you said those things today, you were in the queue for the physical examination. There were quite a few people around!"

Beina’s face turned visibly pale, her lips trembling slightly, looking as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Lu Xiao had long known these females were prone to theatrics but lacked real fortitude. She continued, "If you really didn’t do it, then why did Duke Green offer a 20 million investment to the Fifth Research Institute?"

The moment these words were spoken, Duke Green blurted out in shock, "What? When did this happen?"
