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?”

The best husband is not to be trifled with

Hard mouth, soft heart, tsundere star female lead VS vicious mouth, kind heart, affectionate humble CEO male lead * After spending five years, Shen Yicheng still could not understand why Tang Yi wanted to break up with him. It was obvious that everyone agreed to their love. Looking at her back view as she left resolutely, he swore that he would make her fall for him until she wished she was dead. That night, Shen Yicheng flew to an unfamiliar city. Over there, he was an honest, gentlemanly, gentle, and modest gentleman. Little did they know that he used to be a crazy demon that everyone was afraid of. When they met again, he gave her a jacket at the party, and she thanked him politely. Tang Yi,"Why are you putting your clothes on me?" I think… Shen Yicheng said,"Miss Tang, you're mistaken. This dress belongs to the old butler." Tang Yi was speechless. Shen Yicheng: " Don't dirty it. You'll have to return it later. But it's fine if you dirty it. Wash your hands clean and return it to the old butler." In a fit of anger, she threw the clothes into the river. That night, Shen Yicheng acted up again and asked the butler to put the clothes into his bedroom. * After the misunderstanding was resolved, he was like a dog skin plaster, thoroughly and vividly explaining the words "living a life worse than death". "Baby, baby." "Baby, hug me, kiss me, touch me." " Baby, I love you. I love you so much." "Baby, if you leave me again, I'll, I'll commit suicide!"
