To all viewers, it's that time of the month again for a solo chapter. Today, I have some significant good news to share with everyone.

Due to the abundance of sensitive words in this chapter from this morning, my originally planned update for 11:59 PM on the 31st was thwarted by the system's automatic review process.

Therefore, at this point, with only one month remaining before the settlement... I have failed to obtain the Diligence Reward for the fifth time.

Consequently, all subscription fees related to the Diligence Reward that you have previously paid will be returned to your accounts.

It feels like it will be a lot of Qidian Coins (dead fish eyes).

Of course, this isn't exactly good news for me... just another cut left by procrastination in my life.

…………

Next, let's talk about something else...

First of all, I wish all student friends... a happy start to the school year.

I imagine most of my readers were rushing to finish their homework just yesterday; you've really worked hard.

Secondly, I wish everyone an early happy Mid-(no) Autumn (salary) Festival (moon) cake.

Also, don't worry about the merchandise; it should be shipped this month... hopefully...

Next... let's talk about something more important. If there are no accidents, there will be double monthly votes at the end of this month. So, please hold onto any monthly votes you have for now and cast them to me in the last two days of September. Since you're going to vote anyway, voting then will make one vote count as two.

…………

As usual, I should write the plot forecast for this month at the end.

The "Survival for Poison" story is quite long; it basically won't be finished in the first half of the month.

And in late September, a story called "Creepy Nursery Rhymes" will unfold. Whether Feng Bujue enters it alone or in team mode is currently undecided, so please wait and see.
