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?”

What are the characteristics of modern short fiction?
One characteristic is brevity. Modern short fiction often tells a complete story in a relatively short space. Another is its focus on a single, significant moment or idea. For example, many modern short stories zero in on a moment of self - realization. Also, they tend to have complex characters despite their short length, with inner lives that are hinted at rather than fully explored.

What are the characteristics of post modern short fiction?
The characteristics of post modern short fiction include the use of metafiction. Metafiction is when the story comments on its own fictional nature. For instance, the characters might be aware that they are in a story. Post modern short fiction also often features a sense of pastiche, borrowing elements from different literary works or styles and combining them in new and unexpected ways. And there is a tendency towards open - endedness. Instead of having a clear - cut conclusion, it leaves the story open for the reader to interpret in multiple ways.

The Significance of Selected Short Fiction in Modern Literature
Selected short fiction plays a significant role in modern literature. It allows for quick and accessible reads in our fast - paced world. People can pick up a short story during a short break and be immersed in a complete literary experience. It also provides a platform for emerging writers to showcase their talent. Since it doesn't require the commitment of a full - length novel, editors are more likely to take risks on new voices. Moreover, short fictions can often be more experimental in terms of form and style compared to novels, which helps to push the boundaries of literature.
