Features: Dear baby, your life is yours. It's only when you feel the wind that the wind blows; it's only when you put the universe in your heart that the universe exists. Finally, Kangxi is here. This is a collection of essays written in the tone of talking to Xiao S's unborn baby during her pregnancy, with Xiao S as the program partner, and published as a book. Each piece is short and exquisite, full of wisdom and Zen, long surpassing opinions on specific people and things, and rising to a deeper understanding of life. Cai Kangyong's attitude toward life is sometimes light and sometimes serious; the world he sees is sometimes absurd and sometimes colorful. Through Cai Kangyong's deeply affectionate and gentle words, you will discover that life is so wonderful and fun! Challenge the life philosophy of the simple-minded and find the true beauty of your own life. This book is perfect for "naughty model students" who still have curiosity about the world. Because of a girl I love very much, I wrote this book! If someone insists on explaining life to you, baby, just listen and don't take it too seriously. Your life is yours. It's only when you feel the wind that the wind blows; it's only when you put the universe in your heart that the universe exists. Baby, this book written for you often appears with question marks, and the reason is simple: there are many things I'm not sure about, and even more that I don't want to be certain. I just arrived earlier than you, and I will leave earlier too. During the time I arrived earlier, I remind you of some things in life that you shouldn't miss, and some things that are better to miss. Because of talking to you, I have the chance to often recall my original state. You make me remember many things I've forgotten for a long time, dear baby. – Cai Kangyong

Dear Baby: Almost everyone starts life without being fully prepared. Isn't that wonderful? Before taking a cold medicine, we often check the instructions; before boarding a train, we glance at the schedule. Yet we start "living" so recklessly. We cry to know what sadness is; we fall to know what pain is; we love to know what love is. Because of this, do we need a "guidebook"? Or should we hold a "pre-departure briefing" especially for all babies like you who haven't arrived yet? I think not, because life is worth living precisely because it cannot be explained. If someone insists on explaining life to you, insisting that they hold the only "correct answer," baby, just listen and don't take it too seriously. You know, their own lives may not be going well either. They must live as "guides" to feel more certain. Your life is yours. It's only when you feel the wind that the wind blows; it's only when you put the universe in your heart that the universe exists. The others decided for you, believed for you, and acknowledged for you—you may have to carry them, but when the time comes, you can let them go. Baby, this book written for you often appears with question marks, and the reason is simple: there are many things I'm not sure about, and even more that I don't want to be certain. I just arrived earlier than you, and I will leave earlier too. During the time I arrived earlier, I remind you of some things in life that you shouldn't miss, and some things that are better to miss. Because of talking to you, I have the chance to often recall my original state. You make me remember many things I've forgotten for a long time, dear baby.
