When Mrs. Liu overheard their conversation, thoughts of her own daughter surfaced. Still stuck in their hometown, she wondered if the girl would ever make it to the capital.
Fortunately, Hu Chun seemed reliable and ambitious, a relief that prevented her from future regret.
Gu Zixuan's potential marriage advancement also brought joy to Mrs. Liu. Having family in the capital would offer them support if her son chose to remain there.
That night, Gu Chengrui replied, "Chengxi agrees to meet them. If they find compatibility, engagement follows."
"Understood. I'll gather more information tomorrow."
Zhou Ying was surprised to see the young lady blush upon hearing her identity before she could say anything.
Witnessing this, Zhou Ying knew things were settled.
Mingyu approached them after finishing her stuff. "How is my stepsister doing?"
"She seems well. How old is she?" Zhou Ying asked.
"Eighteen next January first."
