"But he's so young, how can you bear to let him suffer like that?" An Ziqi said, her eyes welling up with tears.
"This isn't about whether I can bear it or not, he's my son, and it pains me too, but I have to think about his future," Xiao Moli gently persuaded, raising his head to wipe away the tears accumulating at the corner of her eyes.
