656 Pure Chance

After a busy day, the elfins fell asleep one after another, but Pi was still sitting in front of the computer.

It was quiet outside, nothing but the occasional firecracker could be heard.　　

Pi took off its glasses, and rubbed its bloodshot eyes. It was very sleepy, but couldn't sleep, it hadn't been sleeping well for days. As soon as it lied down and closed its eyes, the increasing number of Favorites appeared in its mind. It was both excited and anxious. The mixed feelings made it difficult to fall asleep. It was like a metal ribbon in a clock, being wound up tighter and tighter, with the potential to break at any moment.　

It just finished a new chapter. It stretched its fingers and glanced at the clock on the computer screen. It couldn't remember how many times it had checked the time.

It was almost midnight, and, according to its editor, the novel was going Premium at midnight. Pi waited anxiously for the moment to come.
