Devastated

I’m genuinely distraught. I saw the Chinese update authors note for the story and they said it’s discontinued due to expiration of copyright. I was looking forward to seeing their baby in the manhua but now all hope is gone!! (Well there is official art of their baby but I’m still sad)
(´༎Д༎`)

The thing is I feel like if the copyright is expired can’t they just renew or create a new contract? Usually manhuas get cancelled for not having enough ratings or due to issues with the authors health. So I feel like the expiration of copyright reason is just an excuse because they don’t want to continue the manhua. Idk I feel like the copyright issue should be fixable considering they got permission from the author already to even make the manhua in the first place. This reasoning feels more common with mangas, since many mangas are given a short contract to be adapted into a manga as promotion for the novel only. It’s common in those cases to be abruptly cut off.

My favorite manhuas keep getting cancelled. At least there’s still the novel. But we shall never see the complete manhua ig
