This was the first time her son had actively said he "liked" someone and emphasized it with a rare "very".
Perhaps because he was too precocious and intelligent, his emotional side was somewhat lacking. Aside from a few close relatives, he was distant and aloof towards other people.
For instance, he would rather read a book than interact with the other children his age in the compound.
However, there was now an exception.
Where there's one, there'll be more. Perhaps one day, her son would be just like an ordinary child.

Gu Tingyun looked solemn. "I will," he said.
