If you have even a tiny bit of regret in your heart, then so be it.
Life can never be so perfect.
Only Zhang Zhao was truly pleased; Madam Wu had done an excellent job.
Several days later, Sun Quan could no longer stand Zhang Zhao's smug expression, so he whispered to his elder brother, "Brother, don't worry, Miss Qiao will be yours sooner or later."
Sun Ce thought for a moment and patted his second brother on the shoulder: "I promise you here that the eleventh daughter of the Yuan family will be yours sooner or later."
Upon hearing this, Sun Yi pondered for a long time, wondering why he had no one to care about.

The kind you catch a glimpse of in the stable is even better.

Refusing him once is one thing, but this is the fourth time already. Grandfather, you’ve seen so much, traveled all over the country, you know best what I’m talking about!”
