  1. Poor BaaBaa 😂 Who would want to go bac to work after retirement?!

    Thank You for the new chapter ♡⁠(⁠˃͈⁠ ⁠દ⁠ ⁠˂͈⁠ ⁠༶⁠ ⁠)

  2. I love MC so much. He knows exactly what he’s worth and refuses to compromise to anyone. He’s amazing. Thanks for the chapter!

  3. Now you kinda get why our MC is like that. He’s been through so much that it’s impossible for these gongs to move him. I’m still sad tho.

  4. Is this the end? Is there a crossing novel of the same world???? I really want to read of a version where he fell for a person.. huhuh

  5. This novel teaches you, you don’t have to fall for a person to be happy! Be independent be strong, deny scums Gongs and take your freedom, buy your planets raise your dragons-dinosaurs!

  6. So happy to finally reach such a unique ending for Yan Shuang. So inspiring 🤩 So strong and independent. Couldn’t be more satisfied. Don’t know if I’ll find another ending like this tbh. 🫠

  7. So he didn’t have a final love interest till the end, even the system, or previous worlds, or high management, no nothing OwO

    We just got an mc who’s very dedicated with his retirement plan and life. Romance for the little worlds but overall, it’s all just work. Amazing 😆✨

    The comedies and dramas kept me going lol. That grind and green tea mc role feels was really something~ Thank you for the novel 💖

  8. Thank you so much for translating this novel! It was such a great read. Felt like a breath of fresh air. I hope that more and more people would read about Yan Shuang’s story!

    • What should I say if people ask does this novel has a happy ending? For the protagonist, yes it’s a huge HE but it’s certainly wasn’t what most people think happiness is. Most people doesn’t understand that there’s people out there who could be happy alone and wanted to be alone. However, I don’t think YS is “alone”. He just didn’t want a lover and spend his time doing lovey dovey. He had his dragon liked dinosaur, his cauliflower and peas, a weird friend who has a lot of partners that come disturb him sometimes, his planets. He’s a busy man. He’s not lonely nor was he sad.

  9. This novel has been playing with my emotions this whole time… i feel sad parting with it as I’ve thoroughly enjoyed it. i just hope that MC will try to love at the end, although it’s nice to see him single and living his life, it’s not bad for him to share half of it with someone he’ll truly cherish. I really love this novel no matter how much it made me cry in the end. I hope those changed gongs will find closure as they really had changed. I feel so sad for all of them tbh, I’m not as strong as mc and I really feel sympathetic towards them, they’ve been played but still loved Yan to the very end. FCK IM SO SAD RN DAM THIS NOVEL!!! I FEEL EXTREMELY SAD!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
  10. I was feeling sad tht it was nearing the end but the last note made mew laugh

    I’m sorry for comparing but he’s sooo hilarious n he was the reason for my tears n happiness

    I love him I LOVE HIMMM!! NOO I DON’T WANNA LEAVE HIMMM I WANT TO READ MORE ABOUT HIM JSKSJSKSJSKS

    I want to be his dragon QAQ jsksjsksjks it ended nooooo my heartyy tysmmm for the ch sjhksjsksjkGOODBYE MY LOVE

  11. Waaaa it’s finished. 😭😭😭

    I dunno what i was expecting on the ending with regards to the scum gongs, but i guess this way’s good enough. I want a BaaBaa too lmao. I wish i could read more novels with scum shous like this who won’t take shit from anyone or everyone. Hoped he had a backgroudnd story reveal though ehehehe. Thank you so much translators and proof readers and to those that donated kofis so we can also enjoy this novel. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

  12. It’s a really good read. Some made me cry, laugh, pity. It’s gonna be one of my favs. Although I can’t get over yaoyao. He’s so pitiful 😭 but I really enjoyed it A LOT. Thanks for Translating it❤️

  13. If all the people he interacted with in the novels he transmigrated into were the same as the 5 imperial concubines I can totally understand why YS didn’t want to ever take someone along. These people are either sick, more sick or extremely sick. Imagine having to deal with them in so many worlds then also being stuck in with them in your retirement. No, thank you.

    Thank you for the translation xx
