You’re My Glory (你是我的荣耀) – Revised Chapter 37

For completeness sake, I was supposed to translate and release the final epilogue before the drama broadcast but the best laid plans of mice and men. I discovered that Lucky Koi had already translated it on her blog. Since she had taken the effort to do it, the novel is not my exclusive property and I’ve been busy, so do visit her blog for the final epilogue.

In fact, she made more substantial revision to chapter 36 but after letting a few readers to take a look, they still think the original version is better. Thus, she quietly changed back.
