Story context
This is not a story chapter—it's a brief, honest note from the author explaining a delay. In the world of Chinese web novel serialization, such "leave notes" (请假条) are a normal part of the reader-author relationship. The author apologizes, states the reason (something came up), reassures readers that he'll work through the night to deliver the expected two chapters, and advises them to sleep first and read tomorrow. There's no plot, no character development—just a direct, transparent moment between creator and audience.
Why it matters
Treat this page as a gentle reminder that behind every chapter is a real person with real constraints. If you're reading the translated version, you may have seen similar notes from the original author. This one is short, sincere, and carries no hidden meaning—just an apology and a promise. Feel free to take a break, catch up on earlier chapters, or check the community comments. The story itself resumes in the next update.
