So it's best to please her in advance.""Yes."
Although his heart was in turmoil, he had become accustomed to calming down his emotions.As if playing the role of a grandson is not enough, we have to start from now on...This is endless bondage.Watching his adoptive parents bite each other every night, he felt that marriage was just a window display. business, profitBenefits, cages, contracts, documents and the like.There is no meaning and no emotional bonding.The world is full of dirty and boring things.

Turn it back intoPrivate property. By the way, hasn't Shang Xun been found yet?"If it was Shang Xun, he was the indifferent guard at the fishing ground."Oh... forget it, he even dropped his own finger. He probably met some beloved girl.He's gone, there's no need to track him down anymore. "The young man's eyes flashed with uneasiness.
