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?”

One way of character development in short stories is through physical descriptions. Sometimes, the way a character looks can hint at their character traits. For instance, a character with messy hair and wrinkled clothes might be seen as carefree or in a state of chaos. However, it's important to note that this is not always the case. Moreover, the character's backstory, even if not fully told, can be a factor. A hint of a troubled past can make the character more complex and interesting.

One key element is the character's goal. If a character is striving for something, like a promotion at work in a short story, it drives their actions and decisions, thus developing their character. Another is the character's flaws. These make them more human. For example, a character who is overly proud might refuse help when they actually need it, and this flaw can lead to their growth or downfall. Also, the character's change over time, no matter how small, is crucial for development.

The use of internal monologue is also a great technique. It allows the reader to get inside the character's head. For example, a character thinking about their past mistakes can show growth or regret. Additionally, the character's reaction to conflict can develop their personality. If they face a bully and stand up for themselves, it shows courage.
