It really depends on what the backstory is. Assuming this is a person who you hate a little for legit reasons try one of these:

Tight smile and “let’s get started, shall we?”

Ever so slightly amused smile and silence.

Living your best life/milk of human kindness smile but look at your watch after 20 seconds.

(Super confusing-I read it in old books but don't really get what it's trying to say. I'm charmed, you're charmed...who is charmed and why am I so sure?)


How about “Byatch, I’m sure”

Not to the person herself but I overheard a friend say to someone after meeting his fiancée “I was pleasantly……….impressed!” Still makes me laugh.

"Hi, you look different than I imagined."

Is a pretty shitty insult, depending on tone and facial expression.

Yes this is what I would do, or just give an empty "nice to meet you" anyway.
