Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero.

Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot

When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered. Unfortunately, he’s so smart that he no longer has any will to live, which made him sickly, and he’s going to die soon… Later on, the fifth young master brought her into his room. When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine. She’s just a young girl and is spoilt. I have to take responsibility.” After Tang Wan married into the Jiang family, she only had one mission. She must give birth to his children before he died! Meanwhile, the fifth young master was puzzled. “You’re a gentle and shy girl during the day, so why are you so different during the night?” Tang Wan thought. ‘I have to make every second count. He won’t be able to live long.’ After she gave birth to his son and he became one year old, Tang Wan was prepared to become a widow. However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

Every morning, when the sky turned white, it would crow to wake people up early. One day, when it was sick and hoarse, it used an alarm clock instead. It used all its strength to make a weak sound to remind the villagers to get up. Its persistence and punctiality were deeply loved and respected by the villagers. **< Can't Talk Back to Mom >** The little rabbit in the forest felt that it had grown up and did not listen to its mother's advice to explore the mysterious forest. Although the forest was beautiful, it lost its way after dark and met a big bad wolf. Its mother arrived in time to save it. Youyou understood that her parents 'words made sense. She should not talk back and listen to their teachings. **< Crow Drinks Water >** A crow was thirsty and looking for water. When he saw the water in the bottle, he could not drink it because the bottle was too deep. It thought of putting the small stone into the bottle to make the water level rise, and finally drank the water. This told children to use their brains. ** Two Roosters Fighting ** Two roosters were in the same shed, and the little rooster hid in a corner after being defeated. The winning rooster flew to the high wall to show off, but was captured by the eagle. This meant that being overly happy would have bad consequences. ** Wind and Sun ** The north wind and the sun competed for power, competing to see who could make pedestrians undress. The north wind blew the pedestrians to add clothes, and the sun gently shone on the pedestrians to take off their clothes. It meant that a gentle method was easier to achieve. ** The Rooster and the Fox ** The dog and the rooster traveled together. At night, the rooster rested on the branch, and the dog spent the night in the tree hole. At dawn, the rooster crowed to attract the fox who wanted to eat it. The rooster asked the fox to call the dog in the tree hole, and the dog came out to bite the fox. It meant that if you met a bad guy, you had to use your wisdom to defeat him. "The Crow's Testimony" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to read it!
