Mrs. Bai, eager to curry favor with Ruan Xueling, praised her excessively. "Madam Gu, you've done an excellent job raising your children. They all got into Hua University."
She continued, "I heard that Miss Gu Yang's perfume sold for 200 million yuan at auction. Such talent surpasses even that of established perfume families."
Ruan Xueling smiled at Gu Yang, who was quietly standing beside her. "It's just a hobby of hers. Your children are impressive too. I hear your son has contributed significantly to managing the company, and your daughter graduated from a prestigious overseas institution."
Gu Yang listened attentively to the exchange and observed Bai Yueshuang's changing emotions. She noticed an undercurrent of resentment directed at Ruan Xueling.
'Did Mother do something to offend her?'
As Ruan Xueling and Mrs. Bai chatted amiably, they suggested that Gu Yang and Gu Jin mingle with other guests.
