Just finished Chapter 4, and I wanted to write Chapter 5, but I'm sorry, I can't. Sleepiness is setting in, because I woke up at 3 a.m. yesterday, so I'm getting sleepy earlier than usual.

I saw in the comments section this morning that an old brother said that I had only been in first place for the first day and I was already reduced to updating twice a day. This is really a misunderstanding. I guarantee that as long as I'm awake, I'm basically sitting in front of the computer, desperately trying to write.

Actually, I updated three chapters yesterday, but one chapter was posted before midnight, because my schedule is messed up, and my diet is messed up too...

It hasn't been easy getting to this point. It really hasn't been easy.

I cherish it, I cherish it very, very much, and it's impossible for me to slack off at this time.

Yesterday I looked at the number of words updated, and I realized that in half a month, I had already updated more words than I did for the entire previous month, and that includes the few days I didn't have time to write when I attended the annual meeting.

This time,

There's really no turning back except for first place.

Whether I'm tired or not is really secondary.

The key is that this time, our usually very laid-back reader group has also mobilized. The administrators and group members are crowdfunding, exchanging votes, staring at the red envelope area, and shouting everywhere for votes.

Many old readers who were lurking have also surfaced and returned to support this battle for the top spot.

Everyone is either in school or at work, and they are all taking the time to support me.

This time's battle for the top spot,

Condenses the hard work of too many people,

There is no turning back,

Not even a little bit of turning back,

A step back means that all the previous hard work of everyone will be in vain!

The previous days and nights, the previous efforts, the previous hard work, will instantly become meaningless!

Friendship first, competition second, that's the comfort that losers give themselves.

We are now in first place,

We are walking very hard, but we are walking upright and with a clear conscience!

Right now, we have a lead of five thousand votes, but five thousand votes is really not safe, very, very unsafe.

A week ago, we were leading by three thousand votes, but we were quickly overtaken.

That feeling of powerlessness, that feeling of helplessness, that feeling of astonishment,

We don't want to experience it again.

Being a pursuer is really too tiring, as tiring as facing Ying Gou.

Now that we've finally taken the lead again,

Then let's continue to lead!

I hope that,

In the last second of this month,

*Late Night Bookstore*,

Is still in first place on the monthly ticket chart!

In the history of Qidian,

A paranormal novel,

For the first time to achieve the first place in the monthly ticket chart,

Is a record we created together!
