Araceli immediately bowed deeply. "It's a pleasure to meet you." Feeling slightly embarrassed, Silver Fox rubbed her nose, awkwardly standing as if on a pedestal. With a warm smile, she said, "Araceli, there's no need for such formality. I'm easygoing." "Master Elin, you're as approachable as Tiffany said," Araceli chuckled.
