Gu Yibei originally called his parents over to show goodwill, but for some reason, the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
Especially the look in my young father-in-law's eyes...
Gu Yibei coughed and took the lead in introducing: "Dad, these are my parents. They heard in Country Y that Nannan had found his biological father, and they said they had to pay him a personal visit."
Mrs. Gu was fine; in Country Y, she'd just be gardening and drinking tea, a typical life for a noblewoman. But Gu Jue, as the son-in-law of the Duke and King of Country Y, was incredibly busy. Yet, he'd specially brought his wife to the capital of China to meet his in-laws, a testament to his sincerity.
Mrs. Gu has always been outgoing and enthusiastic. She was extremely happy to meet her in-laws for the first time. She took Ji Zhinan's hand and walked forward to talk to Li Yuan with a smile.
"Oh, it's my in-laws! Hello, hello, I'm Yibei's mother."
"I've always wondered what kind of person could have a daughter as beautiful, smart, and sensible as Nannan. Today, after seeing my in-laws, I immediately understood! My in-laws are both handsome and talented. As the saying goes, a good father will have a good son, so it's only natural that Nannan is so outstanding!"
"In-laws? Why aren't you talking? You don't talk much, right? But you don't look very happy. Are you feeling unwell?"
Li Yuan: “…”
Damn, not only did you three take turns snatching my daughter from me, you even came to my house to rob her!
Now my precious daughter is no longer mine, and I am no longer her only father. And you still ask me why I am unhappy? Who can be happy when encountering such a thing?
I promise not to cry, okay?
The clever Gu Jue immediately noticed Li Yuan's displeasure, but his wife had no bad intentions and hadn't noticed that their obedient relative was resisting the urge to kick them out and maintaining his last bit of rationality.
Afraid that his wife would hug his daughter-in-law and show off again, the father-in-law would lose control of his long, straight legs and kick his wife out, Gu Jue coughed and spoke.
"Linlin, didn't you say yesterday that you hadn't seen Nannan for a long time? Go talk to Nannan, Yibei and I are here."
"Okay!" Mrs. Gu was naturally happy to talk to her beloved daughter-in-law alone, and she pulled Ji Zhinan upstairs.
"Nannan, which room is yours..."
Seeing his wife going upstairs, Gu Jue withdrew his doting gaze and looked at Li Yuan opposite him.
It is said that daughters look like their fathers, and there is some truth to this.
Li Yuan himself is of mixed race, with a foreign father and a Chinese mother. Following the principle that sons resemble their mothers, he has a Chinese face, with Asian hair and eyes, but he possesses three-dimensional features and height that Orientals lack, making him look much more handsome than the average Chinese man.
As his daughter, Ji Zhinan inherited all the advantages of his appearance. Li Yuan's face was originally handsome and cool, but in Ji Zhinan, with the integration of Xi Luo's genes, there is more of a refined and high-end feel.
Ji Zhinan is very similar to Li Yuan in many ways, so there is no doubt that they are real father and daughter.
Gu Jue nodded slightly, showing respect first. He extended his hand and raised the corners of his lips slightly: "Hello, Gu Kangming, it was a few years ago that I last saw Mr. Warrens."
The Gu family's influence is mainly in Asia, while the Warrens family's is mainly in Europe. If there were no business dealings, the two families would never have any involvement.
In addition, Li Yuan has always been low-key, so Gu Kangming and Li Yuan only glanced at each other from a distance at a banquet hosted by a world-class wealthy person about five years ago.
