    "Does my wife intend to divorce me?" "Or is the child so dull that you cannot please him?" Ji Lianyu asked sadly, his brows furrowed, his voice trembling. The mark on his neck was very noticeable, the red mark hidden beneath his clothes faintly visible. He lay on Wei Shao's lap, silently shedding tears, unable to hold back his sobs. Seeing his shoulders shaking, Wei Shao's eyelids twitched, and she pulled him into her arms. Sure enough, tears fell again. He sat on Wei Shao's lap, sobbing even more, large tears rolling down his cheeks, soaking the fabric of the woman's chest. Wei Shao sighed softly, patting his back, looking down at him who was only wearing a thin shirt, her brows furrowing slightly. The person before her had beautiful eyes filled with tears, his eyes red-rimmed, looking at her with grievance and anger, tears streaming down his face, a pitiful sight, his eyelashes wet. Wei Shao placed his hands on her neck, making him look at her. "I've never even considered divorcing you." "Your words remind me, I could still divorce you." "No." "You can't divorce me."
