I was careless—too careless...
Didn't I upload Chapters 45 and 46 in reverse?
At the time, in the author backend, I proofread both chapters and saved them. But I accidentally published Chapter 46 first (3,000 characters). Once I noticed, I hurriedly changed the content and copied Chapter 45's content (2,200 characters) into it, since VIP chapters couldn't be deleted.
Then I copied Chapter 46's content into Chapter 45 and uploaded it.
But when I just checked the subscriptions, both chapters were somehow priced the same, calculated entirely based on the word count from the first upload. In other words, I overcharged everyone by 3 Qidian Coins. After being edited, Chapter 46 had 2,200 characters (normally 9 Qidian Coins for entry-level VIP), but entry-level VIP readers were charged 12 Qidian Coins!
In other words, everyone paid the price for 3,000 characters to read 2,200.
I'll find a way to make up for it afterward. I'm truly sorry—a single mistake caused such a huge mess.
I'll post a free chapter to make up for it.
I'm really sorry... I genuinely didn't notice this. Ugh, I only found out when I subscribed to it myself just now. And none of you checked the page count against the coins you spent—you're all rich tycoons, huh?!
Lastly, I'm truly, truly sorry.
This was a major oversight... I've already contacted the editor, but the editor isn't online this late. We'll see tomorrow. Hopefully, the extra charges can be refunded!
