She shook hands with the other person, Pete's smile was shy and reserved: "Hello!"
Atra translated for him, "Pete says hello."
Pete continued, "I've seen your news, very impressive!"
Purple Summers was still confused, Atra smiled again and translated: "He said he's seen your news and praised you as impressive."
Purple couldn't help but laugh, pursing her lips, "Thank you for the compliment."
Afterward, Atra led Pete to the banquet hall, both chatting and laughing.
Purple felt like her mother had changed, she talked more and became lively.
Previously she told Alexander that after meeting Pete, her mother seemed younger, but that wasn't quite right.
As one ages, it's not just the appearance that fades but also a certain aura that's hard to describe, like people who seem young but feel lifeless and lack energy.
Atra was like a pool of water in the backyard of an ancient temple, tranquil and distant, gentle and beautiful, but she wasn't young.
