When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered. Unfortunately, he’s so smart that he no longer has any will to live, which made him sickly, and he’s going to die soon… Later on, the fifth young master brought her into his room. When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine. She’s just a young girl and is spoilt. I have to take responsibility.” After Tang Wan married into the Jiang family, she only had one mission. She must give birth to his children before he died! Meanwhile, the fifth young master was puzzled. “You’re a gentle and shy girl during the day, so why are you so different during the night?” Tang Wan thought. ‘I have to make every second count. He won’t be able to live long.’ After she gave birth to his son and he became one year old, Tang Wan was prepared to become a widow. However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

Can you give an example of an ironic short story?
Sure. One ironic short story could be about a health - obsessed fitness trainer who always preaches about the benefits of a healthy diet and exercise. One day, while jogging, he trips over a pebble, falls, and gets seriously injured, ending up in a hospital bed for weeks. It's ironic because he was so focused on promoting fitness but got sidelined by a minor accident.

What are the key elements in writing an ironic short story?
One key element is setting up expectations. For example, if you introduce a character as very lucky, the reader expects things to go well for them. Then, you subvert those expectations, like the lucky character losing everything in a sudden turn of events. Another element is the use of irony in the plot. This could be situational, like a fireman's house burning down. Also, the characters should be believable. If they are too outlandish, the irony may not land well. For instance, if a character is a world - class chef but can't cook a simple meal for himself at home, the believability of the character makes the irony stronger.

an ironic historical story
A long time ago, there was a hero named Alexander. He was a great military commander and politician. He led the Greek army to conquer a large area of land and establish a powerful empire. However, Alexander's conquest did not bring peace and prosperity. His empire was constantly divided and at war. The regions he conquered were also full of resistance and dissatisfaction. In the end, Alexander was defeated in a war and his empire collapsed. This story tells us that great power does not necessarily bring peace and prosperity. Sometimes, it would only bring more destruction and destruction. Even if we have a powerful army and advanced technology, we can't change the nature of society.
