Chapter 74: Chapter 74: How to Respond_1

Although this couple were neatly dressed, they were not fashionable and did not have any luxury goods. They obviously came from an ordinary family.

I racked my brains for a long time, but couldn’t remember who they were.

I glanced at Gu Yuanzhou again.

He seemed to be observing my reaction…

Actually, I was very clear that there was a blind spot between Song Xiaoyun and me.

That is, I didn’t know all of Xiaoyun’s relatives and friends.

From Xiaoyun’s old mobile phone, it seems that she didn’t like socialising, and she barely had any regular contacts on WeChat and phone.

Most of her mobile album was filled with scenery and small animals like cats and dogs.

By rights, I should try to at least understand Xiaoyun’s past to avoid the embarrassment of not recognizing people face to face.

But because I had more urgent matters at hand, even though I had this intention, I didn’t implement it.

I just didn’t expect that troubles would come so fast.

“Xiaoyun, child, why are you so dazed?”

The woman slapped me again.

I nodded at her uncomfortably, while also trying desperately to identify her.

Gu Yuanzhou crossed his arms in front of his chest, staring into my eyes,

“Why don’t you introduce us to each other?”

As soon as he said this, I understood immediately.

He was testing me.

I took another look at the woman in front of me. Although she looked a bit old, her features had some similarity to Xiaoyun’s.

Also, the woman was carrying a cloth bag filled with some local products. Immediately returning to my senses, I hurriedly introduced them.

“President Gu, this is… my parents!”

“It took you this long to react?”

“Uh, I… just didn’t expect them to come over all of a sudden!”

At this point, Song’s mother grabbed my arm,

“Girl, you’ve lost a lot of weight recently! Have you become short-sighted again, not even recognizing your own mother?”

“Yeah, I’ve become much more short-sighted, I didn’t see clearly…”

I mumbled to myself.

Song’s mother grabs my hand and strides over to Gu Yuanzhou,

“Mr. Gu, my child is like this, always hesitant and awkward ever since she was young.”

But Gu Yuanzhou was staring at me intently, saying meaningfully,

“Is that so? She doesn’t seem like that.”

Worried about the more you speak, the more you slip, I wanted to quickly take Song’s parents away from here. So I told Gu Yuanzhou,

“President Gu, sorry to bother you. I am going to take my parents to eat now!”

Gu Yuanzhou generously agreed.

“Alright! Your folks have come all the way here, they should have a good meal. You go and book a seat, I’ll treat them!”

Gu Yuanzhou actually stood up, picked up his suit jacket, and it seemed like he was going to join us for dinner.

I quickly stopped him, “President Gu, you still have a meeting… I can handle my parents by myself.”

“How can that be? You are now the most important employee in my hand. Your parents have made such a hard trip here, of course, I have to entertain them personally. After all, there are nothing important today.”

I was actually a little suspicious of the whole thing.

Why did Song’s parents suddenly appear? Did Gu Yuanzhou bring them back, just to expose me?
