Hello everyone, I'm Gui Zhengfan.
If you didn't quite understand what I meant after reading the title, then simply put, this is a periodic summary of my work.
A reflection and confession.
Those familiar with me know that I'm not particularly good at controlling the plot, so...
To put it simply, around a few dozen days ago, I started this special arc supposedly "with Jian An as the protagonist," and successfully turned Jian An into a supporting character in the end.
So I had no choice but to go into seclusion for over ten seconds.
During that time, I thought about a lot of things—everything I'd done with my plots in the past—and what I wrote at the end of this volume was my conclusion.
I said I wanted to confess and reflect, but the people I need to confess and apologize to include, but are not limited to, Jian An's fans whom I've let down lately, as well as Jian An himself. It is also my past self.
If I thought about it carefully, I'd been an extremely irresponsible person outside of my books in the past—sometimes even within them.
I wouldn't say I was an utterly heinous criminal, but I really was someone who didn't understand how to clearly lay out a plot, establish a protagonist, shape characters, or control the story. I also loved digging all sorts of holes, and my update speed wasn't particularly fast either.
Sometimes I neglected a character far too much, and I never understood what overdeveloping a character or stealing the spotlight meant.
Alright, the sermon ends here. We can stop now.
Hmm. How should I put this?
I am guilty.
Originally, I really had intended to write an arc centered on Jian An, with Pindo as the supporting lead, in order
