Ye Shu was also stunned. She hadn't expected to meet Shaochen's mother, Bai Yueru, in such a manner at this kind of event.
Ye Shu hesitated for a moment, feeling somewhat uneasy as she extended her hand and lightly gripped Bai Yueru's, "Auntie, hello, I'm Ye Shu. It's truly an honor to meet you. You look beautiful tonight..."
As she spoke, her mind was racing. Usually sharp-tongued, she felt a nervous tightness, as if she was clumsily speaking to her in-laws.
What exactly had Shaochen said about her when he mentioned her to Bai Yueru?
Did Bai Yueru know about her secret marriage with Shaochen?
Ye Shu slightly lifted her eyes to look towards Shaochen, who was standing a meter away surrounded by bodyguards. Her eyes conveyed a small plea for help.
Shaochen nodded subtly, giving her a reassuring look. Then, to everyone's amazement, he slowly began to speak, "Mom, you're scaring my woman."
The moment Shaochen spoke, the entire room erupted.
