There's a monthly-ticket bonus chapter at midnight-remember to vote on its chapter page to unlock it

After midnight, it'll be January, and your base allotment of monthly tickets will refresh automatically. Those of you who already voted today don't need to worry; you'll be able to read it 0

Just keep one thing in mind: you have to vote from the monthly-ticket bonus chapter's reading page to unlock it. Voting directly won't work, as shown:

Don't yell at me. I don't know why it was designed this way either-readers keep voting and then finding they can't read it, so I still have to post a separate announcement as a reminder.

This bonus chapter is the pure love story of the Princess Consort of the King of Jiujiang and three men. Later, I saw some readers saying they wanted to read about Top-Ranked Big Brother's romantic history, so the next time there's a bonus-chapter event, I can write the pure love story of Blood Guanyin, Top-Ranked Big Brother, and the Crown Prince.

The bonus chapter doesn't have much effect on the main plot; it's just a little supplementary background, so it's fine whether you read it or not. I'm taking part in this monthly-ticket bonus-chapter event purely to ask for monthly tickets. My editor told me that most of December's new readers came from the monthly-ticket rankings. I said, of course they did-I only got onto the daily reading recommendations on the afternoon of the 31st this month, so I'd basically been running naked all month.

The monthly-ticket rankings really do bring in a lot of traffic. No wonder everyone's pushing to climb them. Unfortunately, I don't have enough energy right now. I barely have enough time to write, and I really can't manage things like giveaway QQ groups. I'm also worried about getting distracted, so I'll focus on working out the plot first.
