Healing a Fallen S-Rank Beastman: Everyone Fights Over the Little Female-Chapter 187: Invitation

This was also how the school found out what was happening among these young females who had suddenly changed.

Everyone finally realized that the rumors about Lu Xiao were having such a massive impact.

However, this was a welcome change from the school’s perspective, given its fundamental principles.

And so, both Lu Huan and Lu Yu were called into their teacher’s office. They were asked, "Have you been in contact with your sister recently? The school would like to invite her to give a speech. Do you know when she might have time, and would you mind passing along the invitation for us?"

Lu Xiao was completely baffled when she received nearly identical messages from both sisters, Lu Huan and Lu Yu.

Teacher Ai Li noticed her strange expression and asked curiously, "What’s wrong, my dear Xiao Xiao? What happened that’s made you look so surprised?"

Lu Xiao didn’t hide anything. "My two little sisters just messaged me. They said their school wants to invite me to give a speech."

"But that’s a wonderful thing! Why do you look so surprised?" Teacher Sherry looked up upon hearing this.

Lu Xiao rubbed her face. "They want me to give a speech about life planning and why I chose monogamy. What is this even about?"

Lu Xiao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The whole situation felt completely bizarre.

’How on earth did I become famous at Lu Huan and Lu Yu’s school?’

Teacher Ai Li saw her confusion and chuckled. "I’m not too surprised, actually. A friend of mine contacted me not long ago asking me what Lady Lu Xiao, the person I work with, is really like. Apparently, her daughter comes home from school and talks about ’Lady Lu Xiao’ more than anyone else. She says you can control your own life, that you have a harmonious family... And it doesn’t stop there. My friend’s daughter often asks her, ’Mother, if you only had Father back then, our family would have been so much happier!’"

Teacher Sherry looked astounded. "You’re kidding. Is Lu Xiao really that influential among the younger generation of females?"

"That must be the work of her two wonderful little sisters."

Lu Xiao was stunned by Teacher Ai Li’s story. ’When did I become an idol to these young females? I’ll have to ask Lu Huan and Lu Yu exactly what they’ve been saying about me!’

So after work, Lu Xiao questioned her sisters in detail about the sequence of events. After hearing the whole story, she was astonished. She never would have expected that everything that happened at the Earl Lu Ge Wei Mansion would ultimately lead to this.

On the video call, Lu Yu looked at Lu Xiao expectantly. "Sis, the speech..."

"We’ll talk about the speech later. It’s getting late, you two should go to bed." ’I need to calm down first.’

’I never imagined I’d become famous like this!’

’Famous enough to be invited to give a speech, no less.’

After ending the video call with her sisters, Lu Xiao lay on her bed and messaged Ares. She felt much more at ease after composing a message explaining what had happened and sending it to him.

It didn’t take long for Ares to reply. "I actually think this might be a good thing. It could help change some of the attitudes in the Empire. Of course, whether you do the speech or not is entirely up to you, Xiao Xiao. Whatever you choose, I’ll support you."

He knew very well that Lu Xiao didn’t have a flashy personality. She hadn’t done any of this to become famous or change the world; she simply did what she did because she wanted to.

His little female had always been shining brightly, and now, the world was finally seeing her light.

It made him feel honored and immensely proud.

"After hearing you say that, I think I can accept their invitation." ’She had never thought about changing the world. She didn’t see herself as a savior or a hero, but if she could change a few people and a few things, that would be a very good thing indeed.’

"Then I’ll look forward to your speech, Xiao Xiao."

They chatted for a while. Though they were far apart, Lu Xiao never felt like they were truly separated.

「The next day.」

Lu Xiao replied to her sisters, agreeing to give the speech at their school.

Naturally, the news couldn’t be kept from Cecilia and Admiral Clan.

When they found out, they were both very supportive.

"Honestly, I can’t stand the way so many females in the Empire behave," Cecilia said, her eyes filled with gratification. "Too many of them lack ambition these days. If you can really influence a generation, Xiao Xiao, you’ll be doing a great service!"

Admiral Clan looked at his little daughter, his eyes brimming with pride!

’If he could, Admiral Clan wanted to drag Lu Xiao outside right then and there. He’d grab the first person he saw, point at her, and declare to the world, "This is my little girl! She’s the absolute best, the most outstanding person there is!"’

Thankfully, Lu Xiao had no idea what the Admiral was really thinking, or she would have been so embarrassed she could have clawed a mansion out of the floor.

News of Lu Xiao’s invitation to speak at the school naturally reached the Earl Lu Ge Wei Mansion. That night, Lu Ge Wei was smashing things again.

’The more successful Lu Xiao becomes, the more it’s a slap in my face! It just makes everyone think I’m a terrible mother!’

’She was about to go mad with jealousy and hatred!’

Over at Duke Leslie’s Mansion, Duke Athena had also heard the news, and she couldn’t stop sighing. "That little Lu Xiao is just too wonderful. I knew a day like this would come. What a pity, what a pity... Do you think if I had been a bit more forceful back then, Fred might be with her now? I was so short-sighted. Why was I so fixated on the ’main husband’ position? When you’re with a female like Lu Xiao, status is completely unimportant. The only thing that matters is being with her!"

Only now, feeling like she finally understood, Duke Athena felt nothing but regret for her missed opportunity.

’If I’d figured this out sooner, I could have definitely built a relationship with a female like her. It looks like I need to pay another visit to the Duke Galli Odello Mansion.’

Her main husband, who was sitting beside her, spoke up. "Are you going over there for Fred’s sake again?"

"I wish I could, but it wouldn’t be appropriate anymore. Besides, I can see that little Lu Xiao is very serious about her choice of partner. It’s unlikely she can be swayed. It’s more practical to become good friends with her than to do something that will just make her resent me." At this, Duke Athena let out a sudden, derisive laugh. "If you ask me, the person who must be suffering the most right now is Earl Lu Ge Wei. She has such an outstanding daughter, and as her mother, she should be the one reaping the benefits. But alas, the woman is clueless. In that respect, I have to admire Duke Cecilia. There’s a reason the Duke Galli Odello Mansion has remained unshakable for so many years."

But she, Athena, was no fool. She could read the situation clearly.

That young female, Lu Xiao, was no ordinary person. No one could predict how her future would unfold. The sooner they forged a good relationship with her, the more it would benefit the Duke Leslie’s Mansion.

’Since her son isn’t up to the task, then she, his mother, will have to step in herself!’
