The first meeting, and the impression wasn't all that good.
If not for her grandson's sake, elder Mrs. Gu probably wouldn't have even spared her a glance. However, because Gu Qianqian was personally brought back by Gu Baichuan, even if the elder lady didn't like her, she refrained from making things difficult for her face-to-face.
"Love me, love my dog"—perhaps this phrase aptly described the situation...
Gu Qianqian initially thought that this lukewarm attitude was already the best treatment she could expect from the Gu Family. But when Bai Cen Xi appeared by her side and gazed at her with those gentle eyes, the way elder Mrs. Gu looked at her changed entirely.
Moreover, after the birthday banquet, she even insisted that Bai Cen Xi take Gu Qianqian out to explore Nanyou. She refused to let Bai Cen Xi leave alone.
For this, Bai Cen Xi was naturally more than happy to comply, but Gu Qianqian looked visibly awkward.
