Cui Changxiao merely suggested something offhandedly, not expecting the other party to take it so seriously—what, they wanted him to help pick out gifts?
He wasn't quite sure what "helper" meant, but it should mean helping choose some suitable gifts.
Is the older Madam of the Prime Minister's Mansion always this straightforward? Isn't this their first formal meeting?
Though feeling somewhat confused inside, Cui Changxiao, raised with proper etiquette, couldn't refuse and agreed with a smile. As he chatted with Song Ci, he also asked what gifts to send.
What was initially meant as polite small talk ended with a surprising twist for Cui Changxiao.
"Did the older Madam of the Song family actually see those foreigners before? To know what they look like?"
Cui Changxiao was quite astonished, as he had just mentioned that there were some people in the East Sea area with unusual appearances, eyes of various colors, eagle noses, and golden hair, looking quite strange.
