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?”

Horror-Spieleentwickler: Meine Spiele sind nicht so gruselig!

[Horror-Spieleentwickler: Meine Spiele sind wirklich nicht so gruselig!] Ich hasse Horror. Von den huschenden Geräuschen von Schritten, die hinter mir herjagen, bis zu den leisen, aber beunruhigend kalten Flüstern, die sich um meine Ohren winden... All das. Ich hasse es. So sehr, dass ich anfange zu kotzen, wenn ich eine bestimmte Schwelle erreiche. Und trotzdem bin ich ein Horror-Spieleentwickler. Ein miserabler noch dazu. Also habe ich beschlossen, aufzuhören, angesichts meiner mangelnden Fähigkeiten. Und doch... [Glückwunsch, Sie wurden für das Horror-Spielentwicklungssystem ausgewählt!] Nein, ich will es nicht. Lass mich aufhören. ※ Hinweis: Ihre Welt könnte einige Veränderungen erfahren. Aber keine Sorge! Es ist Teil des Spiels! *** Dies ist eine Geschichte über einen Spieleentwickler, der Horror hasst, aber keine andere Wahl hat, als Spiele zu entwickeln, die gruselig genug sind, um Menschen zu traumatisieren. Sie wollen mich verfluchen, weil ich Sie dazu gebracht habe, sich in die Hose zu machen? Wenn das der Fall ist, wen verfluche ich dann? *** Eine von SCP inspirierte Geschichte mit ihrer eigenen Wendung!

She is the true daughter of a prestigious family in the Federation, who was lost outside and grew up in a garbage heap, and is also a waste with only F-level spiritual power. Her parents' abandonment and favoritism, the exclusion and framing by her green tea fake daughter sister, the cultivation sect in crisis. She can only regain her cultivation and turn the tide by participating in the Federation Planet's 'God Creation Game'! "No way? Someone with only F-level spiritual power can also enter the 'God Creation Game'?" "Maybe just to make up the numbers." "With only 3 attack points, even a gust of wind can kill her, right?" Josh, the sickly waste not favored by everyone, casually summoned a Divine-level Monster in the dimension. Just when everyone thought she was going to kill all sides, she smiled slightly: "Open for fortune-telling, divining the location, weaknesses, and treasures of monsters, looking at dimension feng shui, monster physiognomy, one divination for 3000 points, scan the code to pay, thank you!" Barrage: "What's wrong! 3000 points, what idiot would go there! She's a fraud!" Contestant: "Me me me! I want a reading, I want a reading!" "I was here first!" "Don't cut in line!" Barrage: "......" Are these the star contestants they've fostered with points?

Isolation is another theme. Soldiers may feel isolated from their normal lives, their families, and this can create a sense of horror. Also, the theme of powerlessness.

One well - known wartime horror short story is 'The Things They Carried' by Tim O'Brien. It delves into the psychological horrors that soldiers face during the Vietnam War.

2024-11-20 03:43
Well, bedtime stories are typically told to children at the end of the day. They are full of imagination, like stories of magical lands far away. The language is gentle and the plots are not too complex. In contrast, wartime stories can be very intense. They might describe battles, the fear of soldiers, and the destruction that war brings. For example, a bedtime story could be about a little bunny finding its way home, while a wartime story could be about the D - Day invasion and the brave soldiers who fought there.

The maxed out Black Tea Boss went berserk online.

Ji Huan had nothing to do, so he read a melodramatic novel and cursed. The female protagonist in the book had a crush on the male protagonist for eight years. She was interrupted by the second female lead and became a laughing stock. - Everyone said that she was a good-for-nothing idiot who only knew how to pester Lu Tingyu every day and embarrass the Ji family. It was not until an internationally renowned hacker attacked the defense system of the number one financial group in Jingdu that the senior technical experts of the entire financial group were at a loss. Ji Huan chewed on his gum and took a look. "Yo, you can't do this." The technical expert looked at the collapsed interface of the intranet and the corners of his mouth twitched. "If you can do it, then go ahead." Ji Huan really went online and re-fortified the firewall within a few minutes. He even sent an international standard friendly greeting to the hacker on the other side-a middle finger. She had even written the Slori system for life science and technology, developed super-intelligent brains, and planned project investments… The experts were trembling. Netizens from all walks of life knelt down and went to comment on Ji Huan's Weibo, worshipping the big shot. One of the comments was simple but very eye-catching. A certain young master from the capital,"Let's go home for dinner. Black-roasted beef." There was a picture attached to the bottom. It looked pitch-black, as if something had been burned to charcoal. Ji Huan was speechless. The netizens exploded. Since when did the young master of the Jiang family, a noble in the capital, know how to cook? Also, where did this unexpected sister-in-law come from?
