Does he not have a mother?
Gu Qili gazed at the child's plump and tender face, suddenly overcome with a wave of compassion. No wonder he ran away from home; it turned out he was motherless. Could it be that his father remarried, and so he wasn't good to him either, leading the boy to speak in such a tone?
"My dad only cares about work every day. The only thing he cares about me is my grades, so there really isn't much for me to write about." Mu Qinian probably realized his tone was a bit harsh and stopped talking about that matter. He picked up the speech material Bruno had prepared and started to read it out loud.
The little guy was expressive and emotional; once he started speaking French, it was as if he had become a different person, his voice crisp and his enunciation clear.
