Being with Bo Yan and Zhizhi every day, I just wanted to stick to them all the time; Zhizhi was particularly well-behaved.
Once full and satisfied, she would sleep soundly without any trouble.
Even when she occasionally woke up wanting milk in the middle of the night, it was Bo Yan who would soothe her. Throughout the confinement period, it went like this without any hardship.
Bo Yan had developed a set of skills for comforting babies, and Zhizhi was even more familiar with his scent and body than with mine, her mother.
Sometimes I would tell Bo Yan with a sour tone that Zhizhi didn't like me at all.
Then Bo Yan would hold me and dote on me with kisses and laughter, saying something I simply couldn't argue with.
"No matter who Zhizhi likes more, the person who will be with you for a lifetime is me, so you can't like Zhizhi more than you like me."
Although shocked by Bo Yan's shamelessness, I found it very satisfying.
