Pei Ge looked down at the little fella sleeping next to her and noted the many beads of sweat on his forehead. She felt an inexplicable fury and sadness boil inside her!
She did not know why, but she felt exceptionally affectionate toward this boy.
An unexplainable affection…
"Mommy… I'm sorry… So sorry, mommy…"
The child kept murmuring this in a voice filled with grievance and helplessness…
"Okay, okay. You're fine; you're fine. Mommy won't throw you away. Mommy is here…"
She bent down and pressed her cheek against his, gently whispering that to him.
"It's all my fault, mommy… my fault… that daddy doesn't like me…"
"Good boy! Baby, you are mommy's precious. You are not wrong; daddy loves you, too. Don't be sad anymore…"
She kept consoling the child, and just like that, under her incessant reassurance, the child's emotions finally settled.
Soon, his cute, little face revealed a light smile.
