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?”

"Kiss me, Cole," I begged, my head sinking back into the seat. "I…" He leaned in just a little, his lips close enough for me to taste his breath, but then he stopped.

Little Cloud was a short story by James Joyce, published in 1884. The story was about a young artist who was on his way to Paris when he was caught in a storm. His paintings were drenched, and he decided to go to a nearby cave to hide. There, he met a mysterious girl.

The young artist was attracted by the girl's beauty and mystery and decided to follow her to the cave. In the cave, they encountered some danger, but the girl finally brought him to a mysterious room with many mysterious symbols and paintings. The girl told him that these symbols represented her and her late husband's memories, and she hoped that these symbols could help him recall his own path of art.

In 'A Little Cloud', James Joyce delves into the psychological state of his characters. Little Chandler represents the ordinary man who feels trapped in his routine. The story's setting in Dublin adds to the sense of claustrophobia. Joyce's writing style, with its detailed observations and nuanced language, makes the reader feel the character's sense of longing and disappointment. For example, when Little Chandler looks at his baby son, he realizes how far removed he is from the life he once hoped for.

The real man in the Divine College's Mighty Soldier Company

Hey, hello friends, I'm Hua Ye. Just now, a friend asked me what happened to Teacher Hua. He sent me a few screenshots. Let me take a look! Roar! It turned out that there were two young men yesterday. They were in their twenties. One was called Ge Xiaolun, and the other was called Lin Xiaofei. They said, hey…One of them said that my cervical vertebra was damaged from training on the surface of the star. Teacher Hua, can you teach me your black hole technique and treat it? I said yes. I told him that it wasn't good to train your death energy on the surface of a star, but he was not convinced. I say, little kid, you two can fire at me, but he won't budge. He said that it was useless. This is Black Hole Force. Traditional techniques are all about force. He insisted on trying it out with me, and I said yes. Sigh! As soon as I finished speaking, he stood up with a bang. Very quickly! Then, he used a Dragon Fist. Boom, a lightning strike. I blocked it all! I'm afraid I'll hurt them, so I'll withdraw my fist. I stopped fighting when I was withdrawing my fist. They suddenly attacked me. One threw a two-way foil at me, and the other hit me with a vitality bomb. I was careless and didn't dodge! He was beaten into a paper man by them. I say, young man, if you don't talk about martial arts, you won't understand. Ah, they immediately apologized, saying…they said they were just randomly shooting, but they weren't randomly shooting. A proper two-way foil and a terrifying vital energy bomb. Clearly, they came prepared. These two young people didn't care about martial arts and came to cheat! Sneak attack, my thirty thousand year old comrade. Is this good? This was not good! I advise! These two young people should reflect on themselves and not be so smart in the future. Uh…the universe should prioritize harmony and martial arts. Don't engage in internal strife.
