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.

Cousin Richard is seen to be alive and well in this film, as he evades death countless times. Although this time, things are different. Cousin Richard's death in 'Father, cousin Richard survived' after the first crusade was shown to be long-lasting. His body remained in place for a long amount of time. This directly contrasts Richard's death in this short film. But what does this mean? Well there are two conclusions that could be drawn here. Either Cousin Richard is powering up, in an attempt to overthrow Father. Or the darker, and worse conclusion - the one I personally believe: Son was holding back on Cousin Richard. This unfortunate conclusion has more than enough proof to be a reasonable suspicion. In 'Son, have you been simping recently?' Son is seen telling Father that Cousin Richard has survived, through discord DMs. However, directly contrasting this, Son acts as if he does not know that Cousin Richard was alive in 'Father, cousin Richard survived'. But what does this mean? It could be that Son's heretic mind is protecting Cousin Richard. [22:16] Another piece of evidence for Son's heresy is the quote 'Maybe they're onto something' after reading the heresy brought to him by Cousin Richard. This piece of foreshadowing occurs after Father has disappeared from a distance where he could hear Son. This dramatic line tells a chilling narrative: it shows Son's descent into heresy and madness. Cousin Richard's influence over Son will always be there. Cousin Richard has been allowed to live by Son, as Son is a heretic at heart. This means that Cousin Richard is alive and well, and ready to take down Father. Perhaps he will overthrow father, and defeat the holy crusaders from the inside. This is all leading to an epic conclusion within the Bread Boys Cinematic Universe - I believe the final tale to be told will be Son's betrayal of Father, revealing himself to be the heretic who protected Cousin Richard. Father, being the hero he is, will need to convince Son to return from his evil ways, and become a holy crusader once more. Truly genius, Bread Boys. Genius.
