Chapter 635: His Mother

Without having to hear it from Helian Niancheng, Gu Qingjiu knew who this woman was.

She seemed to be wearing a designer outfit, and Gu Qingjiu recognized it to be Chanel.

The brand Chanel gave off a socialite vibe, and it appeared particularly n.o.ble on this woman.

She was breathtakingly beautiful.

Gu Qingjiu finally understood whom Helian Niancheng inherited his good looks from.

Standing there stiffly, although her expression couldn’t be considered awkward, the shock on her face was rather apparent.

“Come over.”

Helian Niancheng, dressed in a s.h.i.+rt with watercolor painting prints that complemented his celestial and elegant air, turned around.

He waved at Gu Qingjiu.

Gu Qingjiu subconsciously walked towards Helian Niancheng, but her vision remained fixed upon that beautiful lady next to him.

“This is…”

She asked Helian Niancheng in a small voice.

The beautiful woman before her revealed a gracious and affable smile at Gu Qingjiu.

Only that as she gazed at Gu Qingjiu, she was indistinctly sizing her up.

Even though that gaze was rather affable, it made one feel a sense of pressure.

“Let me introduce her to you formally. This is my mother.”

When he said this, the beautiful woman before him nodded with a smile.

She exuded an elegant aura.

Even though she was mentally prepared for this, Gu Qingjiu’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat at hearing such a direct introduction. She hurriedly greeted her. “How do you do, Auntie? I am Gu Qingjiu.”

Although she felt panicked, she could maintain calmness on the surface.

It wasn’t that she was nervous, but that she felt constrained meeting her boyfriend’s parents.

Although Helian Niancheng had mentioned his mother wanted to meet her, she never expected it to happen soon.

“Nice to meet you.”

Hilda stood up and extended a hand in a friendly manner.

Gu Qingjiu also stuck out her hand.

She noticed that although the other party was sizing her up, her gaze was gradually turning gentler.

Next to her, Helian Niancheng said with a faint smile, “Mom, this is my girlfriend, Gu Qingjiu. You know that, right?”

Hilda, who wore exquisite makeup on her face, cast a helpless look at his son and replied, “Of course.”

Her voice was melodious, and she sounded unusually demure speaking in Mandarin.

When she caught sight of Gu Qingjiu’s arm, she asked with a hint of worry in her voice, “I heard you got injured a few days ago. Are you feeling better now?”

Flattered by the attention, Gu Qingjiu nodded and replied, “Auntie, it’s nothing serious.”

Although she knew that the other party’s ident.i.ty was very shocking, Gu Qingjiu could only address her as Auntie under such circ.u.mstances.

“Sit down.”

Helian Niancheng reached out and helped to support Gu Qingjiu’s arm, then pulled her to a side to sit down. Next to them, the chef started preparing delicious food.

“I’ve long heard about you. But this is my first time meeting you.”

Regardless of what this Hilda said, it made one feel a sense of pleasure, that they were being taken seriously.

This was an upbringing that was hard to come by. Interacting with such a person was a scarce experience.

Gu Qingjiu immediately felt closer to Hilda.

Although this was her first time meeting Helian Niancheng’s mother, the distantness she felt towards his mother quickly disappeared.
