The birthday was wonderful; I shared a joyful meal with my parents and received over a hundred monthly tickets as a gift, which felt like congratulations from more than a hundred friends.

The monthly tickets have pushed me into the top fifty, and I’m only thirty tickets away from breaking into the top ten of the City genre. I wonder if I can muster one more push to get Xiao Yu’s rankings back into the top ten so he can show his face there. If I make it back into the top ten, I’ll add two extra chapters tomorrow.

Those two extra chapters will count as make-up chapters, considering I still owe everyone a dozen or so.
