As you can see, I got the Ten Thousand Subscribers badge at around 9:30 last night. But the author was asleep at the time, so I didn't post this message of thanks right away.

To be honest, I never could have imagined this book achieving what it has today. At first, I only wanted to scrape together a living. When it had a thousand saves at one hundred thousand words, I once thought I wouldn't even be able to earn that meal. So I'm truly grateful for everyone's support.

I originally wanted to post the names of every reader who had sent a reward as well, but unfortunately, there wasn't enough time. I really can't type that many names on my phone. Next time, I'll specifically find an opportunity to post a separate chapter to thank you all!
Also, the monthly ticket lottery event for this book will close and draw the winners tomorrow night at eight. For details, please check the previous standalone chapter. Twenty winners will receive Hundred Lives Book night lights. They're quite nice-looking—you can check out the bonus chapter for specifics.
Lastly, I still have to say it again: thank you all so much for your support. The author will continue pumping out four chapters and eight thousand words a day, striving to make it the norm. If overtime work occasionally makes that
