Gu Jin was still thoroughly enjoying the spectacle of university principals vying for her sister's attention when she caught wind of a familiar voice. Turning, she found Xiao Yize standing nearby.
Her gaze briefly paused on his outstretched hand before she reciprocated the handshake, meeting his eyes. "Mr. Xiao, how have you been?"
Xiao Yize's smile grew warmer.
Following that, Xiao Yize exchanged pleasantries with Gu Zhaoming and his family. "Uncle Gu, Auntie Ruan, Sister, and my two younger brothers."
Gu Zhaoming, Ruan Xueling, and Gu Pei were all taken aback. They hadn't anticipated Xiao Yize's presence here. Moreover, amidst the discussions circulating around them, they gleaned that Xiao Yize's status was far from ordinary.
Gu Yang also greeted him with a smile, inwardly noting that Teacher Xiao's arrival came at an opportune moment, offering a chance for relaxation.
