Lin Shirong was reborn in the summer of 1980. In his previous life, he had poor judgment when it came to people and relied too much on matchmakers. This led to his children having unhappy marriages, two useless sons-in-law, and several daughters-in-law who turned the family into a chaotic mess. Determined to change the course of his family’s future, Lin Shirong decided that in this life, he would personally find suitable partners for his children. Years later, during a gathering with old friends, the topic of conversation turned to their daughters-in-law and whether they were filial. The old men couldn't help but brag about their own families. Lin Shirong waited patiently for their boasting to run its course. Then, with a knowing smile, he took out his phone and posted a status update on WeChat Moments, writing: "I’m feeling restless staying at home all day—thinking of going out for a walk." The post barely had a chance to settle before his five daughters-in-law, scattered across different cities, started calling him one after another: The eldest daughter-in-law: “Dad, where do you want to go? I’ll pick you up right away!” The second daughter-in-law: “Dad, the Bird’s Nest Stadium just finished construction. Let me come get you so we can go see it together!” The third daughter-in-law: “Dad, among the Five Great Mountains, you haven’t visited Huashan yet. The weather is perfect right now. How about I pick you up and we go on a little trip?” The fourth daughter-in-law: [Her call was so enthusiastic it left no room for doubt.] The youngest daughter-in-law: [Equally excited and eager to make plans.] The scene left Lin Shirong’s old friends utterly speechless. Their earlier boasts paled in comparison, and their envy was unmistakable as their faces turned red!

"Shhhh," he cut me off, his palms spreading on the revealed skin of my abdomen. His index fingers made their way into the waistband of my sweatpants as he pressed his front closer to my behind. "Don't shush m-" I tried to argue. "I said so," he stated, his tone going deeper as his hand went lower, this time to the waistband of my panties. I couldn't control my breathing anymore, more so as his teeth lightly grazed my neck. "So you better obey." ^^^^^^^ They say "A night in Vegas can change your life."

##Extreme Smut and Kink warning## As a child, I did not have any known relatives. Getting into college was a significant goal of mine. I came into this world at the exact moment that I started to see a thin line of hope. Before I could make sense of what was going on, the individuals who had summoned me were murdered. I was caught and sold as a slave for the war. It was nice that the "Oh! Great System" helped me get stronger and learn some new skills. Only after winning 50 times in a row in the Colosseum was the emperor granted me a gift. I believe freedom would have been the best gift. However, I got the second-best one. I became a slave bull. Slave traders, nobility, and even the emperor himself sent slaves to my chamber in order to procreate. Finally, after 30 years of doing nothing, I felt the rush of action. For three days straight, and... "System, why am I back? I thought I was getting to the best part of the story." {{This planet needs the help of the returnee, like the host. Please take care of it.}} "Fuck the planet. I HAVE to get my harem back." Schedule: Every other day. (3-4 Chapters/week)
