As they reached the Shans, Shan Zitong moved forward respectfully and said, "Good evening, Master and Madame Gu."
Master Gu extended his hand for a handshake and said, "We will be family, so you can call us uncle and aunt... So, these are your parents?"
Shan Zitong replied, "Yes, this is my mom and dad. Mom, Dad, meet Gu Liang's parents."
Master Shan shook Master Gu's hand and said, "Nice to finally meet you, Master Gu. My son only speaks well of you, and you have a beautiful wife."
Master Gu, his ego fueled, responded, "Gu Liang surely takes after her. I guess your son has good taste too."
Madame Shan walked closer to Madame Gu and said, "Nice to finally meet the woman who will be my son's mother-in-law."
Madame Gu's face betrayed a mix of anger, fear, and irritation. She forced a smile when she noticed her husband waiting for her to respond and said, "Nice meeting you, Madame Shan."
Madame Shan asked, "Where is your daughter?"
