Tangling with the Western Commander

This is a story of a captain of a secluded place and a gorgeous female celebrity—both who would hardly cross paths but a collision in Tibet sets an opening to their encounter. Upon their first encounter, Wenxian already has her eyes set on Captain Lu—her mouth drooling with desire. Wenxian, “Hmm? How can I win over your heart? In a plain sack or using sweet talk?” With a cigarette in his mouth, Lu Xiao scoffs. “You are an impressive and popular celebrity, I am only a captain at this secluded place. I am very poor, what is it in me that you like about?” Wenxian, “I like how you always snub back at me.” Lu Xiao choked and walked away heartlessly. “You are shameless, don’t even dream about it!” The next day, he said, “It's all because you were carried away by a whim?” Wenxian, “No, hatching a scheme.”

One of the best is 'Lonesome Dove' by Larry McMurtry. It's a sweeping epic that follows a cattle drive from Texas to Montana. The characters are richly drawn, and it gives a vivid picture of the Old West. Another great one is 'True Grit' by Charles Portis. The story of a young girl seeking revenge with the help of a U.S. Marshal is both heartwarming and exciting. And 'The Virginian' by Owen Wister is also a classic.

Well, 'Riders of the Purple Sage' by Zane Grey is a top pick. It's full of action, adventure, and the wild west setting. Then there's 'Blood Meridian' by Cormac McCarthy. It's a darker take on the west, exploring themes like violence and survival. 'True Grit' by Charles Portis is also excellent, with a strong - willed female protagonist seeking revenge in the western frontier.

Today, I was pampered by the devil again.

The world-famous demon king had fallen in love with a little girl and had been pampered by her side every day. The little girl was beautiful, soft and delicate, like a fairy. She gently tugged at the Great Demon King's sleeve and looked at him with a pair of starry eyes. "Big brother, can you buy me candy?" Her smile was so sweet that it made one's heart soften. Everyone said that the Great Demon King was cruel and heartless. However, when faced with the little girl who said that she loved him once every day, the tips of his ears secretly turned red. At that time, everyone realized that the Great Demon King had found a wife to play with! -- The throne of the Great Demon King was empty, and the courtiers urged him to appoint an empress every day. That night, the Great Demon King pressed Yan Jiu down." You've grown up. Now, you can either marry me or be eaten by me. Choose one." Hmm?" Remembering that the Great Demon King had once dug up her bones and scattered her ashes, Yan Jiu's expression changed. She took out a knife and stabbed the Great Demon King. She smiled and asked, "Shall I scatter your ashes first?" Everyone thought that the little girl was weak and weak. She had no status or background, so she was definitely easy to bully. However, they did not know that the little girl was a big shot. On the surface, she was soft and harmless, but in fact, she was like a demon king who killed without batting an eye.
