I truly hate to ask for votes, but without the plea, the Monthly Pass rankings are a tragedy too grim to bear looking at.

As the New Year begins, first, Xiao Yu needs to make a statement: there will be no breaks this month—even on the first day of the Lunar New Year, there will still be an update.

Next, Xiao Yu earnestly begs for today's guaranteed Monthly Pass support. With less than ten hours remaining today, I promise here that for every ten votes received, I will release one bonus chapter this month; one hundred votes will earn ten extra chapters; and two hundred votes will grant twenty bonus chapters. Should we reach three hundred votes, fifty chapters will be added.

These bonus chapters will begin tomorrow, with a minimum of two extra chapters released every single day. These past two days, my child has been unwell, requiring trips to the hospital for check-ups, which has kept me endlessly busy until now.

From this moment forward, every single vote from my friends has the potential to unlock an extra chapter for me.

Send all your Monthly Passes my way; Xiao Yu can handle the load. RQ
