CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. In "look forward to", the "to" is a preposition, so it is followed by an -ing form: "looking forward to meeting you".

Worth noting

Most "to"s take a plain verb ("I want to meet you"), which is why "to meet" sounds right.

Concept
"Look forward to" + -ing
