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.

The 1960s was a peak period for British short story creation, and many excellent works emerged. Here are a few 1960s British short stories worth recommending: 1 Liu Cixin, author of the "Three-Body" series. This was a series of science fiction novels about the interactions and conflicts between Earth and alien civilizations. It was hailed as one of the representative works of Chinese science fiction literature. The Moon and Sixpence, by William Somerset Maugham. The novel was about a poor painter who gave up his wife and his job in pursuit of art. 3. The Catcher in the Rye, by J.D. Salinger. The novel tells the story of a young man, Holden Caulfield, who grew up in a rye as a watchman, trying to avoid the troubles of the adult world. 4. The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott fitzgerald The novel tells a story about love, wealth and social status, reflecting the social class division and the distortion of human nature in the 1930s. 5.

Well, one characteristic is their rich use of language. British short novels often have a very precise and evocative use of words. For example, in 'A Room with a View' by E. M. Forster, the descriptions of the Italian landscape are so vivid that you can almost feel like you are there.

They often have complex characters. Take 'Pride and Prejudice' (which can be considered in short story form in some respects). The characters like Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy are multi - dimensional, with their own flaws, desires and growth throughout the story. Another aspect is the use of rich language. British short stories are known for their elaborate and sometimes old - fashioned language that adds to the charm and depth of the narrative.
