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?”

After the blackening, the heaven-defying big shot is actually myself

[Cookie abuse + improper cultivation] Soft and cute, strong and strong, princess × gentle and affectionate, lord After a few lifetimes, the young princess of Nanling expressed that the person involved was very regretful. There were three specific reasons. One, the beauty who was picked up by the roadside was not allowed to acknowledge her brother. Please hug her directly and not let go, and call her "husband"! (There must be a predestined fate in the previous life, so we can meet in this life) Second, I don't want a free elder brother. My elder brother controls the wrong person and destroys the entire family. If I can start over, I will stay away from crazy criticism and become independent! (A gentleman like an orchid is just a facade. A black-bellied bigot will take your life to accompany him.) Third, to hell with his special fate, he should bear a heavy responsibility. Whoever wants this blessing can have it. This princess only wants to live a small life and live with the person she loves. (It is said that the shortcut to him is to open the door directly.) The young princess sighed deeply. Alas, it was a pity that there were no ifs. She patted the wolf cub in her arms and felt that she could still try to remedy the situation. Let's start with…our reunion after parting.
