So, as Bo Yan was soothing Zhizhi, Yuran trailed behind them like a little tail.
When Zhizhi’s crying softened and then he was finally soothed by Bo Yan, sobbing himself to sleep, Yuran let out a sigh of relief from the depths of her heart.
After placing Zhizhi in his little bed, Bo Yan turned around to see the tail that had followed him the whole way. He couldn’t help but chuckle, reached out a hand to pull her into his arms, resting his chin on top of her head, his voice husky, "Feeling guilty?"
Yuran nodded in his embrace, "I just suddenly feel like a failure, like I can’t even take good care of Zhizhi."
Apart from giving birth to Zhizhi, there wasn’t much she had offered him.
Bo Yan laughed softly, sitting on the bed with her in his arms, as both of them faced Zhizhi. Bo Yan’s eyes were tender, "It’s okay, in the future, I’ll teach you slowly, okay?
I won’t make any demands of you; I took on this task willingly from the start. I don’t want you to be too exhausted, so you don’t have to bla yourself for anything;
Truth be told, I am an accomplice, since it was I who spoilt you to beco like this, so I should bear full responsibility."
Yuran opened her mouth, but suddenly couldn’t speak. His way of speaking sweet nothings went straight to her heart, leaving her unsure of how to retort.
Her lips moved, and after a long ti, she finally spoke, "Geqi, I want to join you in the future. Don’t tire yourself out too much. Since I’ve been pregnant, you’ve lost so much weight."
Although Bo Yan’s mother didn’t say it, she must definitely be heartbroken for him.
Bo Yan rubbed her head, "Alright, let’s work hard together."
...
From being a passive participant, Yuran beca actively involved. As Zhizhi reciprocated with affection, she increasingly felt her earlier pursuit of enjoynt was a mistake.
Joining in the father-son interaction brought a sense of accomplishnt that made her truly happy.
Zhizhi began teething and wanted to bite everything he saw. One day, he even left a bite mark on Bo Yan’s chin, tiny and cute with two little points.
Yuran coaxed Zhizhi into laughter, and with a smile, his two little rice grain-sized teeth showed.
Zhizhi found a new favorite activity—looking in the mirror. When Bo Yan held him in front of a mirror, he would smile at his reflection, an innocent and endearing grin.
Yuran didn’t understand his fascination, but she couldn’t resist the smile he exhibited every ti.
Repeating Zhizhi’s beloved activity beca their daily source of joy.
Bo Yan didn’t express any opinion about it; as long as it was carried out, it was fine. After all, the mother and son were overjoyed.
Yuran had sumr vacation and spent it at ho with Bo Yan, indulging in an array of activities with the baby. They took many photos with Zhizhi, a variety of them. As the stack of photos grew thicker, Zhizhi grew day by day.
Four teeth had sprouted, top and bottom, and when he bit, it was sowhat painful. Bo Yan’s chin started to feature a constant stream of bite marks.
Compared to a teething ring, Zhizhi preferred Bo Yan’s chin.
Yuran made a comnt about it, "It must be that your chin has particularly appealing lines, Geqi, perfectly suited to Zhizhi’s aesthetic, probably resembling a drumstick."
And then Yuran was thoroughly dealt with that night.
The university sumr vacation was long, but Yuran had tasks. She felt the pressure, yet she loved spending the whole days with the father and son.
Bo Yan’s fans discovered a secret: the monthly selfies of the idol that appeared like clockwork were becoming more lifelike, and in one particular photo, you could vaguely make out the gentle brows and eyes of the smiling idol.
This was indeed big news.
Xie Cheng’s vacation was too long, really long, which is why after Si Yao left Diyang, Gao Can captured him and took him to Country M to deal with official matters together—free and idle manpower, too good not to use.
Confronted with the few and precious monthly photos of the idol, people created a photo wall and started a vote.
What surprising changes have occurred to the God of Words over the past year?
A: He’s beco more down-to-earth, having the vibe of being so at peace with life that he has no desire to make a coback!
B: It seems like I can sll the stink of love.
C: I only care about who is taking photos of him?
D: All of the above
Originally, it was just a joke among Bo He’s fans for their own amusent, but to everyone’s surprise, it stayed hotly discussed and dominated the trending searches for half a month, with option D garnering ninety percent of the votes.
So, what’s the truth?
Even though he was in the United States, Xie Cheng couldn’t ignore such a viral topic back ho, and he had Situ Jue suppress the trend.
No need for explanations, just cool it down, and that’s it.
...
During Yuran’s sumr vacation, Bo Yan took her and their son to a very private small island for a getaway.
Back ho, they dared not venture out or visit any nice places, and spent every day entertaining themselves at ho, watching Zhizhi grow. Although it was joyful, they couldn’t keep the child cooped up indoors forever.
Once free to roam, Zhizhi was like a frolicso pony, never still, running around in beach shorts matching Bo Yan’s, crawling across the sand like a squirming atball.
His butt sticking up in the air was particularly hilarious. Yuran, wearing a bikini that showcased her great figure, would never have dared to step outside dressed like that if they weren’t on a private island.
In her hands, she held a DSLR, capturing the interaction between father and son on the beach, accompanied only by the clicking sound of the shutter.
There were shots of Bo Yan holding Zhizhi up high for a face-to-face look, both sitting on the beach playing, and Zhizhi lying on Bo Yan’s back soaking up the sun.
Every fra, every picture was extraordinarily warm.
And while she teased Zhizhi, Bo Yan also took many pictures of her, capturing her doting expressions, Zhizhi’s affection, and their mother-and-son interactions.
He also took plenty of Zhizhi alone, who definitely had the talent of a model, never repeating an action or expression.
Angry, joyful, effusive, adorably stupid...
Bo Yan was adept at capturing small expressions on Zhizhi, like the first ti he tasted a lemon slice and scrunched up his features from the sourness.
Or his first try of red wine, with a look of disdain and confusion...
And so on. A week-long journey turned out to be a joyful and valuable family vacation, if one ignored how sore and weak her legs and back were, it was still noteworthy.
On the day of their return, Yuran’s neck and under her clothes were covered with countless marks. On the plane while catching up on sleep, before drifting off, she complained to Bo Yan, "Ge Qi, you’re even more unrestrained than during the honeymoon period after a wedding."
"Consider it my compensation," Bo Yan replied.
Yuran imdiately lost the energy to retort.
Only after she was asleep did Bo Yan carefully lean in and kiss the curve of her lips, brimming with indulgence.
As vacation ca to an end and Yuran started her school year in September, the trailer for "Emperor Shun of Tang" unexpectedly exploded onto the scene in the silence of late night, rousing nurous night owls.
Lin Zhan’s final work before retirent was set to premiere during the National Day holiday slot.
The mont the trailer was released, it created a huge buzz—with its exquisite production, brilliant editing, and the renewed collaboration between Bo Yan and Yuran thrilling fans especially since the heat of "Glory" was still in the air.
No one expected that Yuran, who originally had no standout works, would suddenly rise to fa with two major productions by top directors premiered within a single year.
