While Gu Mengmeng was showering, Snakel had already instructed his personal assistant to send another gown from the villa. Even though there was no makeup team to help her redo her makeup, but because of her young age and great complexion, she still looked beautiful without any makeup.
She changed into the new gown, while Snakel blow dried her hair, allowing it to fall straight and softly on her back.
When Gu Mengmeng held Snakel’s arms to walk down from the second level, the situation downstairs was a little strange.
How should he put this…
The originally harmonious atmosphere now seemed like a court.
A pair of old couple was sitting on a european designed sofa in the middle of the hall. They looked like they were of a certain age, yet they did not seem old, and their every action exuded an air of nobility. The man took out a pocketwatch from his shirt pocket, took a quick look, then spoke using a not-so-fluent chinese, “Now, an hour has passed. If you guys cannot give me an answer I am satisfied with, then… I will let this matter escalate to a national level. I don’t know if you guys will be able to deal with the offence of insulting the F country’s royal family.”
Gu Mengmeng looked at Snakel with a blank look, whereas he lightly patted her little hand around his arms, signalling to her to watch quietly.
Gu Mengmeng nodded in a well-behaved manner, then walked with Snakel to the center of the hall.
“Father, mother.” Snakel said politely and very gentlemanly.
In fact, Snakel had never been this polite to these two people ever since he was born. As such, his formal greetings to them made them feel a little taken aback.
“Uncle, auntie.” Gu Mengmeng called out awkwardly as she cautiously looked at them, thinking to herself whether she should run away or use Snakel as a human shield if either of them threw things at her.
Snakel’s mother looked at Snakel’s elbow and the big hands placed on Gu Mengmeng’s hands and immediately understood the reason for the respect that her son had given them that day.
Seems like Snakel really likes this lady.
As such, Snakel’s mother’s face immediately blossomed. Someone who could let their son, who was as cold as an ice mountain, show respect to them was definitely a great daughter-in-law.
If Snakel could interact more harmoniously with the family after marrying her, then this daughter-in-law was definitely a godsend!
It was no exaggeration but while Snakel’s mother gazed upon Gu Mengmeng, she was already thinking about which royal member to hire as the personal tutor for her future grandson.
“Come come come, my precious daughter-in-law.” Snakel’s mother gestured to Gu Mengmeng in a loving way.
Gu Mengmeng felt that the progression of events had been too different from what was shown on television and she was taken aback.
Snakel smiled and nodded. He let go of her hand, allowing her to sit by his mother’s side.
Snakel’s mother held onto Gu Mengmeng’s little hands and said dotingly, “Don’t be afraid. Mother will handle things for you. Even though this is not F country, but my family’s daughter-in-law cannot be bullied by others.”
“That’s right.” An old gentleman at the side hit his walking stick on the ground hard and said, “My precious daughter-in-law has suffered because of you guys, you have to give me an explanation.”
Gu Mengmeng was lost, so such a court-like situation was for her? Who were they interrogating? What did she suffer from?
Snakel’s lips curled into a smile, not for any reason but because she did not rebut the title of ‘daughter-in-law’.
Yeah, seems like he can push forward the date to propose.
