Loved By An Older Man

The betrothal gift is two million bucks, not a single cent less. Jiang Yu is already eighteen years old and can get married now. Send the money to my card, and this matter is settled!" Jiang Yu looked at her mother, who was talking non-stop on the negotiation table. She watched as her mother named her price as she sold Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu could not believe it. Eighteen years ago, they brought the wrong baby home from the hospital, and Jiang Yu, the real daughter of a wealthy family, ended up in an orphanage until a year ago. Jiang Ran, the fake daughter of the Jiang family, grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth. With superior resources since she was young, she was more outstanding than Jiang Yu in every aspect and became the pride of the Jiang family. Jiang Yu, who wandered most of her time in the outside world, was nothing but a country bumpkin who made her mother a laughing stock in the socialite circle. However, Jiang Yu had no idea how great her mother's hatred for her was. On the day she turned eighteen, her mother 'sold' her with a named price. Jiang Yu said, "If you want to marry your daughter to someone else, it should be Jiang Ran. I'm your real daughter. You're the one who mistakenly brought Jiang Ran home!" Her mother replied, "Shut up. I wish I hadn't given birth to you. You've brought nothing but shame to me!" Jiang Ran said, "Big Sis, everything Mom does is for your own good. Don't blame Mom." Her mother said, "I'm convinced she's nothing but a debt collector who's come to me to collect her debts! Either you give me two million bucks, or you get married obediently!" Jiang Yu left home in despair. By a freak combination of factors, she found herself accidentally marrying a Mr. CEO. From then on, the thirty-year-old man pampered his eighteen-year-old wife to the heavens. The little girl said, "Mister, someone bullied your wife!" The man, "Which incompetent fool is so blind that he dares to bully you?"

Take Senior Brother into the bag

" Complete manuscript, stable update." Everyone said that the eldest son of the Wanqi family was an immortal, but who would have thought that he would like a little beggar? Not only did he carry her on his back, but he also spoke ill of everyone in a serious manner. "Are they calling Chun 'er stupid?" "Chun 'er isn't stupid. They're the ones who are stupid. They're jealous of the candied haws in Chun' er's hands." Senior Brother, are they suspecting that Chun 'er used some underhanded methods?" "No way. Chun 'er is the kindest and most pleasant person. They're just jealous of Chun' er's ability." "Young Sect Master, no matter how powerful and powerful you are, you can't treat us as deaf! We're still here!" "Oh, I'm really sorry. So you're still here." It turned out that in this person's eyes, other than that ancestor, he couldn't see anyone else… Wanqi Chun had been reborn with despair and hatred. He had originally wanted to rope in some forces to improve himself and then take revenge. However, who knew that after her rebirth, things gradually deviated from the track of her memories, and her own background could no longer be confusing. The dream of chatting with the deceased ancestors, the heart demon that had disappeared thousands of years ago but was entangled with him, the treacherous turmoil in the mortal court... Everything made Wanqi Chun's heart float. She was easily gullible, and her mind would always waver, but there was only one thing that she was unwavering about. That was the senior brother who had rescued her from the dark swamp, pampered her, indulged her, pitied her, and loved her, as gentle as a banished immortal.

The little ancestor is three and a half years old, and the divine beast milk is fierce.

The ancient divine beast, Su Su, descended to the mortal world to experience the tribulation and became the youngest daughter of the Qin family's two elders who were nearly eighty years old. She was young but had a high seniority. Her nephews in their twenties had to call her aunt when they saw her. Su Su was also the only girl in the Qin family's third generation. Her parents doted on her, her brother doted on her, and her nephews fought to hug and protect her. Protect her? Su Su expressed that there was no need. She was a dignified divine beast, extremely brave and fierce! With her around, no one could bully the Qin family! Those who bullied her family would be beaten up, those who coveted her family's assets would be beaten up, and those who tried to kidnap her would be beaten up. The kidnapper who kidnapped Su Su was so frightened that he took the initiative to hand over his phone and beg her to call the police. "How do I turn on my phone?" Su Su asked. " You need a fingerprint to unlock it. Use my finger." the kidnapper explained. "Why are you using your fingers? Cut it down?" Su Su asked again. "No! You don't have to chop it, I can still use it!" The kidnapper wailed. Chop off his fingers! What was wrong with her brain? It was too terrifying! Ever since Su Su, who came with a good luck buff, came to the Qin family, the Qin family's luck had improved. Their business was booming, and the children who were originally disobedient had become more obedient. The whole family had become a team. What a lucky star.
