Book Description
Lin Xiaochen actually managed to catch up to a trend — she crossed it! Fortunately, he was not a pushover Xiao Mianyang. However, now that he had just met two of their opponents, Lin Xiaochen felt that he would never be able to escape from their grasp in this lifetime. He, Yun Zixi, shouldn't have married Lin Xiaochen into the Duke's Palace. This beautiful lady was actually a "wolf", and her stature was so tall and sturdy like he was nothing but Xiao Mianyang in front of her. This Hong Tai Lang even brought his own children and ran amok in the martial arts world. A Shuang Er girl whom he had not seen for many years could only hold her forehead and sigh.
