Chapter 147 Thanks.

Admiral Klan came over with the nutrient solution and handed it to Fred who was sitting on a wooden box smoking.

Her eyes swept over his arm, which was bandaged and hung around his neck. "Are you okay? I remember you didn't smoke before."

Fred took a few quick puffs and put out the cigarette. He then took the nutrient solution and held it in his hand without opening it. He said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't know this thing could relieve stress before."

Admiral Crane was silent for a moment after hearing this: "It's better to smoke less, it's not good for your health. This mission was completed very well."

"Thanks to Lord Lu Xiao. If it weren't for her, I would have to hide here for a long time before I could find a solution."

When Fred said this, he couldn't help but recall the moment when Lu Xiao and Ares hugged each other just now.

He didn't want to admit it, but he was really envious.

Seeing his dejected mood, Admiral Crane raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "Don't underestimate yourself."

Fred shook his head. "I'm serious. If it weren't for Lord Lu Xiao, we wouldn't know that the Black Tower had been using females for human experiments for so many years, and we wouldn't have obtained so much evidence in one fell swoop. Lord Lu Xiao is the one who made the greatest contribution."

"Okay, I get it. I'll just listen to what you say about her. She has done a great job, but so have you. Stop speaking for her. No one will be left behind. Get your arm healed when you get back. It's an eyesore."

After saying these words, Admiral Clan did not stay any longer and stood up to see Lu Xiao.

When he just passed by, Lu Xiao was talking to Ares. The couple had not seen each other for many days. When they met now, the atmosphere was not something that most people could fit into. Admiral Clan was not such an untactful person and did not intentionally disturb them.

When she came over now, the doctor who came with the team had already examined Lu Xiao.

Seeing Admiral Kelan, Lu Xiao smiled and called out, "Father, I'm sorry to have worried you this time."

"I'm glad you're okay. Are you feeling well?"

"Don't worry, father. I don't have even a scratch on my body. But is Lieutenant General Fred okay? Is his arm okay?"

"It's just a minor injury. You will be fine after treatment when you go back. You were very brave this time, Lu Xiao, and you have made a contribution. That's very good." Admiral Clan looked at his female cub with relief and pride in his eyes.

He had no idea about what female cubs were like before, and if Lu Gewei hadn't forced herself on him, he would never have had a child with her.

But now, he thinks Lu Xiao is really good.

She did not inherit Lu Gewei's vanity and arrogance, nor did she have the arrogance and willfulness of an average female.

She has independent thinking, extraordinary abilities and enough courage.

Lu Xiao is different from all the females in the empire.

She is like a rising star, beautiful and bright.

Lu Xiao didn't care much about whether she had made a contribution or not. After all, her starting point here was just to figure out the development process of the medicine.

At that time, I didn't think about making any contribution.

"By the way, have you rescued all the females, father?"

"Yes, they have been rescued. Their identities are currently being verified. Someone will be assigned to take care of them later."

"That's fine. Also, have you found a person named Kro in the Black Tower?"

Admiral Crane thought about it carefully and said, "I don't think there is such a name. I'll have someone check it out later. What happened to him?"

Lu Xiao told Admiral Cran what happened in the Black Tower Base. Admiral Cran nodded and said, "I'll have people pay more attention to it."

"Okay, father. If Ban Lun has a public trial, please contact me. I want to go and see the result of his trial in person."

Seeing Lu Xiao's angry face for the first time, Admiral Cran smiled and nodded: "Yes."

After saying that, Admiral Clan looked at Ares and said, "During this period, Ares has been looking for you and has spent a lot of effort. When you return this time, don't rush to go to work. Take a good rest first." "I know, father."

"Well, then you guys take a rest first. After we clean up here, we'll leave together."

Admiral Crane said, without staying any longer.

After watching Admiral Clan leave, Lu Xiao turned his gaze to Ares again.

In just a few days, Ares lost a lot of weight. One can imagine what kind of life Ares has been leading these days.

The man even had stubble on his chin.

Lu Xiao reached out and gently touched Ares' chin, and it was indeed a little prickly.

"I'll help you shave when we get back."

Ares held Lu Xiao's hand, his eyes filled with affection: "Okay."

Lu Xiao looked at him with a smile. Even if they didn't say anything, just the eye contact made people feel happy.

It was great to see Ares again.

After spending some time with Ares, Lu Xiao stood up and said, "I want to go see Fred and their comrades."

In the end, if Fred and his two comrades hadn't protected her, she would have been in danger.

Ares naturally had no objection, and stood up and said, "I'll go with you."

The two came out of the temporary lounge, and Lu Xiao grabbed a soldier and asked, "Where is Lieutenant General Fred?"

The other party seemed to have not expected that a female would take the initiative to ask him, and his face immediately turned red, and he stammered: "Yes, over there!"

Lu Xiao looked in the direction the soldier pointed and saw Fred sitting on a wooden box. She smiled and nodded to the soldier: "Thank you, I saw him."

"No, you're welcome!" The soldier left with a red face, all in cahoots.

Lu Xiao took Ares to find Fred.

Seeing them, Fred stood up from the box: "Sir Lu Xiao, Major General Ares."

"Are you okay, Fred?" Lu Xiao looked at Fred's injured arm. "Will this injury have any impact on you in the future?"

"No, the bullet has been taken out. We will just need to use the treatment device to treat it when we get back. Sir Lu Xiao, don't worry. You should get more rest."

"I'm not injured, I just need to rest for a while. As for you guys, thank you so much. Later, you can call the other two and come to my house. I'll treat you and we'll have a meal. Don't refuse. Without you, I wouldn't be able to get out so smoothly today!"

She does not overestimate her own abilities, nor does she underestimate the contributions of others.

She really wanted to thank Fred and his comrades.

Fred looked at the smile on Lu Xiao's face, his heart was very complicated, and he nodded: "Okay, we will definitely go when the time comes."

"It's settled then." Lu Xiao was very happy.

When preparing to leave, Ares saluted Fred very solemnly: "Thank you."

Fred knew what he was thanking for. It was because he really didn't give as much as he seemed to. He patted Ares on the shoulder and said, "You're welcome. It's mostly due to Lady Lu Xiao's own efforts. She's very strong. Don't underestimate her."

When a female faces danger alone and faces a male whose strength is several times higher than hers, she still bravely fights back. Just for this reason, Lu Xiao should not be underestimated.
