After all, it was Bai Cen Xi's mother. Gu Qianqian had heard him mention her before, so she knew that although Mrs. Bai was a noblewoman, she had a down-to-earth personality.
So, while her words were polite, they indirectly pointed out the fact that she knew the Bai family didn't like her.
Mrs. Bai heard her, offering only a faint smile: "Very clever! Very beautiful! And very sensible! No wonder Cen Xi is so infatuated with you."
"Please don't say that. Cen Xi and I don't have that kind of relationship."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Bai glanced at her, still smiling: "You don't need to make a statement so quickly. I invited you here today just for a casual chat, nothing more."
"Alright!"
A casual chat...
If it were really just a casual chat, why would she feel so tense? But after all, elders were elders. If they said it was a casual chat, then she would just listen.
