   Curator note

   Bai Jinhuan wrote seven novels set in the same world. However, because the protagonists of the first seven novels were written too "out of character" in the eighth book, the world was at risk of collapsing. Therefore, he was captured by the system "Heavenly Dao," which maintains the normal operation of the world, and sent to the novel world to repair the settings. As the protagonist of the eighth book—the senior brother of the first seven protagonists—he aims to gain their favor without affecting their main career paths. This is a ensemble piece about raising children, with a style that is both lighthearted and serious. Each character has their own principles and mission. The relationship between the protagonist and his children isn't simply one of pampering or being pampered; the protagonist is more like a mentor, pulling them through their most confused and painful periods. The several children, each with distinct personalities, encounter various difficulties, yet even in dire straits, they burst forth with vibrant vitality. There are also other memorable supporting characters. It's an ensemble piece depicting the various clashes and struggles between characters from different factions against a backdrop of chaos.
