As she tidied up the dishes, Zhao Shumin headed toward the kitchen.
Li Zhiyan followed closely behind her all the time.
"Aunt Zhao, your cooking is truly delicious."
"I'm just telling the truth."
"Why aren't you going to take a shower yet? You're still following me around like a little tail. Aren't you feeling hot?"
"Aunt Zhao, I just love being your little tail. Wherever you go, I go."
In the kitchen, Li Zhiyan was still by Zhao Shumin's side, helping her with the dishes.
"Aunt Zhao, can I sleep with you tonight?"
"You silly kid, always thinking about sleeping with me."
"Of course, Aunt."
"I used to be used to sleeping alone, so I didn't think much of it at the time."
"But ever since I started sleeping with you, I've realized how unbearable sleeping alone can be. Aunt, hugging you to sleep feels so blissful."
"With Aunt right by your side, you don't even feel crowded."
Li Zhiyan's words made Zhao Shumin feel incredibly happy, giving her a sense of being needed.
