Gu Minglu looked at the esteemed lady in front of him, somewhat dazed.
She seemed very familiar, but he couldn't quite remember where he'd seen her.
The lady smiled and spoke first, "Hello Gu Mingyue, I'm Ouyang Junze's mother."
"..." Gu Mingyue looked at her in surprise.
Is it trendy now to meet the parents as soon as you start dating?!
Qiao Xiguan was also so eager to meet Ou Siyao.
"Perhaps you find me familiar; maybe you've seen me on TV. I'm a diplomat, and you might occasionally catch a glimpse of me in international news or at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' press briefings." The lady smiled, her tone still so gentle and very pleasant to hear.
It was completely different from the dominant and assertive impression Gu Mingyue had of diplomats.
"Can we talk?" the lady asked, showing respect to others and having a deep-seated almost inherent etiquette that made one inexplicably feel inferior.
