Ji Zhinan didn't dwell on that, but instead looked at Luo Shi, who was staring at him, and asked, "And this is...?"
"Young Master Luo is Madam's guest. Because yesterday was Christmas, Young Master Luo came to visit today, which may offend Madam..."
It turned out they were Aunt Gu's guests.
Ji Zhinan nodded, his expression indifferent: "It's alright. Since he's Auntie's guest, then take him to see Auntie."
"Yes, young mistress."
Hearing the conversation between Ji Zhinan and the maid, Luo Shi also gleaned some information.
He looked Ji Zhinan up and down carefully again before asking, "Are you the young mistress of the Gu family?"
As far as he knew, there was only one young master in the Gu family, and that was Gu Yibei.
If the woman in front of you is the young mistress, then she is Gu Yibei's wife.
Yes, as expected of Gu Yibei, he has excellent taste.
This was the first time Luo Shi had ever seen such a beautiful Asian girl. Her features were even more delicate and beautiful than her aunt's.
Faced with Luo Shi's idiotic question, Ji Zhinan would have turned and left long ago under normal circumstances, but considering that he was Mo Lin's guest, Ji Zhinan patiently replied politely.
"yes."
She held her skirt with both hands and gave a very standard bow: "The Gu family welcomes Mr. Luo to our home. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
Nodding, Ji Zhinan turned and left.
Luo Shi stared at that familiar figure for a long time until the maid kept calling him, which brought him back to his senses. He then followed the maid to the main castle.
………
When the maid brought Luo Shi in, Maureen had already been waiting for a long time.
"Madam, Young Master Luo has arrived."
Upon seeing the humble-looking man in a suit behind the maid, Maureen immediately stood up.
"You're Lingling's nephew?"
"Hello, Aunt Gu." Luo Shi smiled politely and bowed in a standard gentlemanly manner.
"You are much younger than I imagined. If I hadn't seen you with my own eyes today, I would never have believed that such a beautiful and young person is my aunt's best friend."
No matter how old a woman is, she loves to be praised for looking young and beautiful, and Maureen is no exception.
A few words of praise made Maureen beam with delight, though she still feigned annoyance.
"You're such a smooth talker. I never expected that someone like Luo Ling would have such a talkative nephew."
Luo Shi smiled gently and personally handed the gift he brought to Maureen: "This is a gift from your aunt. She said she hopes you won't be angry."
Maureen accepted the gift without hesitation.
Holding the rather heavy gift box, she looked at Luo Shi and asked, "Is she still very busy?"
Luo Shi nodded and answered seriously, "Family affairs have always been handled by my aunt and father. My father is mainly responsible for the family's honor, while my aunt is responsible for the outside business. Some time ago, a project encountered some problems, and my aunt had to personally handle it, so my aunt was unable to meet with Aunt Gu."
Maureen also knew that Luo Ling was not like a typical noblewoman. Usually, noble ladies and young ladies would drink tea, chat, and gather together to discuss and show off their family's glory and designer limited editions.
Luo Ling is a rare female clan leader in this circle. Although she is the deputy clan leader, she is also extremely busy with her work, so it is completely understandable that she could not come this time.
This way—
Ji Zhinan changed his clothes and happened to run into the maid who was delivering fruit.
"Young Madam." The maid, carrying fruit, bowed respectfully.
Ji Zhinan looked at the items on the tray: "Should we take this to the living room?"
