The author has created a new generation of super men with exceptional self-control. For a 16-year-old boy, the sexual impulses and temptations present a great challenge, both physically and mentally. Considering the background of that era, where traditional thinking still dominated, such a boy (possessing the mature psychology of an adult and an incredibly open mindset for the century) would face immense temptation from mature women. The story will also introduce characters such as young girls, loli, mature women, married women, and sisters. This made my heart race with excitement. In the new work, More Cliché will surely satisfy everyone's harem desires! Xu Si's portrayal is very subtle, bewitching the masses, with an exquisite and transparent heart that has a hint of a snake or a scorpion, especially with the first appearance of the supporting female character, a mature beauty. It's so wicked! Welcome to my fan audio chat room! You can interact and discuss audiobooks here. Click to enter.
