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. "Not now, Mia," he said with that smug voice. His hand trailed lower, gliding over my belly, fingers slipping under the waistband of my trousers.

The difference between a path and a road is not only the obvious one. A path is little more than a habit that comes with knowledge of a place. It is a sort of ritual of familiarity. As a form, it is a form of contact with a known landscape. It is not destructive. It is the perfect adaptation, through experience and familiarity, of movement to place; it obeys the natural contours; such obstacles as it meets it goes around.

Quickly wear the female system's beloved husband addiction

(Wear it quickly + Female Supreme + Sweet Pet + One-on-One pair of Cleanses) "Your Highness, someone bribed the gatekeeper." The butler handed the silver ingot in his hand to Bai Ran. "Ha…You want to inquire about my background with just a silver ingot?" She sneered. The world was really afraid that she would not die! However, was it so easy to bribe the servants of the Prince Regent's Residence? "No, it isn't." The butler waved his hands. "Hmm?" Bai Ran frowned. "That person wanted to know how big you are, how often you sleep and how often you wake up, whether you like spicy food or sweet food, when did you start practicing martial arts and swordsmanship, which one do you like more, whether you like romance or drinking alone…" The corners of Bai Ran's mouth curled up slowly. The silver ingot in his hand was still stained with his warmth, but the anxious little one behind the big tree at the entrance of the Prince's mansion did not know that he had fallen into her trap long ago… How could he escape from the trap she weaved with her love net? Of course, he had never thought of escaping. He didn't even have time to dig in! -- In order to find the three souls and seven spirits of the Sky Prince Long Yehan, the White Fox Empress, Bai Ran, held the Soul Lamp and traveled through the three thousand worlds.

Bai Ran used the body of the host to travel around the female venerable dynasty. With the imperial power in hand, she completely enjoyed being a proud daughter of heaven. However, why didn't anyone tell her that doting husbands were also addictive? --
