But because the manuscript was uploaded to the Internet without consent, it was exposed, and Mel Niu lost his temper and announced that he would not write it anymore. After being persuaded by fans, Mel decided that if she didn't hear anything about Midnight Sunshine in two years, she would continue to write and publish it. If she hears it, she gives up the novel.
Although it is child's play, Mel is rich now, and no one can do anything about her, so "Twilight: Midnight Sun" is not included in the plan for the time being.
