   Reader note

   After six years of marriage, my loving husband, Lu Chen, cheated on me. He brought his secretary, Tian Xiaona, who was nine months pregnant, home, and she knelt before me, tearfully pleading, "Weiwei, it's all my fault! The child is innocent, please let the baby be born! You're so kind, you wouldn't bear to abort it." I touched the crumpled liver cancer report in my pocket and nodded. "If you like it, have the baby, we'll get a divorce!" Lu Chen didn't know he was born infertile and now had late-stage liver cancer. Since he was so eager to start a new life and raise someone else's son, I had to grant his wish.

    Ah... 25,000-80,000 Words is already considered a short to medium-length story, right? (According to Tomato Novels' definition) Currently, there are more short stories around 10,000 words, but really few short to medium-length stories. (Note: The recommended book is a short to medium-length male-oriented novel, adapted from a tabletop role-playing game. Tabletop role-playing games are stories completed collaboratively by the host and players.)
