Crossing the Gods as Slaves

Chapter 289: Repaying a Favor (2)

"The guards are right under the statue, but the Queen stepped forward first to catch Miss Arseny. The Queen is very skilled, and she shouldn't have been injured so badly, but..."

Lu Xiu pondered and said, "I understand. Regardless of whether she was putting on a show or not, it is a fait accompli that she was injured while saving people. Send someone to take good care of her."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The Queen of Donglian was quickly transferred from the military hospital to Lu Xiu's residence. Lu Xiu visited her several times, but she only sat for a short while before leaving.

One day, Lu Xiu came back from the Cabinet House. As soon as he entered the mansion, he heard the guard report that Jane Dibeth wanted to see him again. Lu Xiu had to go to Jane Dibeth's bedroom to visit her.

Lu Xiu stopped in front of a door and knocked. Along with the knock, a pleasant female voice said in standard Leeds: "Please come in."

Lu Xiu pushed the door open, sat down on the chair beside Jane Dibeth's bed, and asked her, "Are you feeling better?"

Jane Dibeth leaned back against the pillow and smiled, "I feel much better this morning, and the wound doesn't hurt as much."

"That's good. If you have anything to say, just tell my guards directly.

Can. "

Jandibeth smiled gently: "I will."

Seeing Lu Xiu nod, Jian Dibeth asked again: "Has the news been sent out?"

Lu Xiu nodded: "It has been sent, you can see it on Star Online now."

"That's good. I read the news about other star systems and it's really outrageous. I'm worried that the people of the Eastern Alliance will misunderstand. It would be bad if it affects the peaceful exchanges between the two star systems."

"Well, I have asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to draft a formal announcement. A press conference will be held tomorrow afternoon to explain this matter to the public. I will send someone to pick you up tomorrow, around three o'clock, so be ready."

Jane Dibeth touched her legs through the thin blanket and said, "It's a pity that I can't walk normally for the time being... The doctor said that I may not be able to do strenuous exercise in the future. For example, I am afraid that I will never have the chance to try my favorite equestrian sport again..."

Lu Xiu looked at Jian Dibeth's frowning brows and comforted her: "Don't think too much, just focus on healing."

Jane Dibeth raised her hand and placed it on Lu Xiu's arm: "Lu Xiu, after all, I was injured for your niece. Even if you say that I am repaying a favor, I really want to be with you. Not for too long, give me a month, just one month, okay?"

Lu Xiu brushed away Jane Dibeth's hand: "We have already discussed this topic when we were in the Eastern Union System."

Jane Dibeth put her palm close to him again: "Lu Xiu, if you don't try it once, how can you know whether you will fall in love with me in the end?"

Lu Xiu brushed away Jane Dibeth's hand again and stood up: "For this kind of thing, you don't have to try it to know the result. You can rest and recover. I still have official business to attend to. I'll leave first."

Jane Dibeth stared at Lu Xiu's back infatuatedly until her bedroom door closed and then turned her head back.

Every time Lu Xiu came out of Jane Dibeth's room, he would sigh. He was tired of dealing with Jane Dibeth's entanglement, but the other party's status was as noble as his own, so even if he didn't want to deal with it, he had to cheer up and deal with it.

He rubbed his eyebrows, missing the little woman far away in the Huanglan Star Region.
