Aunt Mu was not a talkative person nor fond of stirring emotions, and she certainly would not lower herself to make such remarks. Yet, she had indeed done so, which was enough to show her esteem for Zhou Yiyi and the Zhou family's attitude toward her. It even highlighted how much they respected their son.
Even though she was powerless and an orphan, they still supported her wholeheartedly. Honestly, Zhou Yiyi was touched.
Moreover, considering the state of things between her and Zhou Mo, it was hard for anyone to believe there weren't any issues between them.
It had become so natural that she never considered the nature of their relationship, which had, in fact, already surpassed that of ordinary classmates.
After Zhou Yiyi figured it out, although she didn't engage in further interactions or warm up their relationship, she stopped avoiding him and accepted his kindness without reservations.
