If chapter numbers in The Rest of Our Life do not match, check the title of each entry. The original Chinese list starts with a prologue. Its second entry is Chapter 1. This small difference can send you to the wrong part of the story.
Min Ran’s complete baihe novel is called 余生为期, or Yu Sheng Wei Qi, in Chinese. It follows Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing. The author’s original page on JJWXC is the reference for the chapter list and notes below. We checked it on 14 November 2026.
Match the chapter title to the list entry
The number at the left of the list is an entry number. It includes the prologue. The chapter title tells you where you are in the main story.
| Chapter title | List entry |
|---|---|
| Prologue (楔子) | 1 |
| Chapter 1 (第 1 章) | 2 |
| Chapter 16 | 17 |
| Chapter 20 | 21 |
| Chapter 33 | 34 |
For example, a request for Chapter 16 points to entry 17 in the original list. Do not assume that a translated edition uses the same entry numbers. It may separate the prologue or divide chapters into smaller parts. Compare its chapter titles before you move ahead.
VIP and locked entries mean different things
The original list marks Chapter 20, entry 21, as the first VIP chapter. Chapters 16 to 19 are before that boundary. Chapters 20 to 33 are after it. Use the site’s normal account and purchase controls for VIP reading.
At our check, entries 133, 162, and 165 showed a locked label. These are separate from the VIP label. Do not assume that payment will make a locked entry available. The page does not explain the cause of each lock.
The author marks the novel complete. The list has 175 entries, including the prologue, a final main-story entry, and four extras. “Complete” describes the story’s status. It does not promise that every entry is open, or that an English translation is complete.
Check the relationship notes before you start
This is an age-gap romance with a family connection and a shared home. In the first named chapter, Lin Xian starts university and moves into Xiao Wanqing’s home at her mother’s request. The opening places Lin Xian at 17 and Xiao Wanqing at 31.
The author’s romance note states that the younger partner is an adult. The author also recommends the book for adult readers and gives it a happy-ending label. Keep the opening ages and the later romance note separate when you decide if the premise suits you.
Keep the title with your reading notes
Save the Chinese title and author name, 闵然, with your last chapter title. This helps you match the original book when English title forms differ. The author also lists a same-title audio drama on Fanjiao; its episodes should not be treated as novel chapter numbers.
Start with the official chapter list, then check the edition you plan to read. For another guide to original chapters, extras, and a separate audio title, see Clear and Muddy Loss of Love.
