We’re continuing our monthly pass lottery event in January! To ensure everyone receives their prizes before the Spring Festival, considering the time it takes to fill in shipping information and for express delivery, we’ve decided to draw for Spring Festival merchandise in January.

The prizes for the monthly pass lottery are: 50 sets of New Year merchandise (Fang Yuan window decal * 1, Ning Zhuo window decal * 1, Fang Yuan red envelopes * 5, Ning Zhuo red envelopes * 5).

Eligibility:
From January 1st to January 7th at 8 PM, all readers who directly vote a monthly pass for this book will automatically be entered into the lottery. Please note, only monthly passes submitted to this book within this period will be counted. (The monthly pass number can be found in the “Monthly Pass Commemorative Album” in the upper right corner of the monthly pass submission interface.)

Drawing Method:
At 8:30 PM on January 7th, the administrator will draw the winning monthly pass numbers in the VIP group and then announce them in a separate chapter.

Prize Claim Method:
After the lottery results are announced, I will post a separate chapter with the winning monthly pass numbers. Winning readers should use their monthly pass stub and a screenshot of their Qidian personal homepage to join the prize claiming group and contact the administrator for verification. (The activity prize claiming group will be announced after the draw; the group link will be in the introduction, click the introduction below for a one-click jump to join the group.)

This event is limited to the Qidian platform, and the author reserves the right of final interpretation.

…2025 Review…

2025 was more challenging and exhausting than 2024.
The kind of exhaustion that affects both body and mind.
Scrambling and struggling forward, that’s how I would describe the state.
I’ve been tricked, deceived, had many illusions shattered, witnessed a lot of malice, and deeply understood the complexity of human nature and hearts.
There were many times my body was pushed to its limits, leaving me slumped and motionless. There were also many moments when my mood hit rock bottom, and I didn’t want to touch anything.
Much of it was uncharted territory, and plans always fell short of changes. I constantly realized my overestimation of myself and my overly optimistic projections of reality.
Failure, failure, failure… this was the main theme of 2025, interspersed with rare, few, and far-between achievements.
Commercial writing has advanced to its second stage.
The vision of “rescuing trees” is also being pursued through continuous attempts amidst difficulties.
Growing pains are inevitable.
The challenges of 2026 will be more numerous and greater than those of 2025!
Written for 2025, and also for 2026. Written for myself, and also for all friends facing various trials, challenges, and enduring pain.
2026.
Bring it on.
We keep moving forward!
