Hi! So I'm back :D But I won't be translating Dudu's Diary anymore

COVID forced me to work full time because my company laid off a few people. I logged in just to try translating again, but I saw this review in NU:

It was never my intention and I never meant to translate something that's seen as sexist and offensive by others. If I offended others, I apologize, it's just a novel I saw posted in the NU forums that I personally liked and translated for the first time. I'm almost done with the novel but I'll stop translating now, I'll go back to doing google doc translations with my close in-real-life friends. Translating with a bigger audience is stressful because I always receive messages about translating a novel that's racist, sexist, body shaming etc. and I just don't want to offend others anymore. Good bye. Keep safe!

Dudu's Diary - Chapter 30: His Aunt's Studio

My parents like me, my great grandpa likes me, my Aunt likes me, and my Aunt likes me, too. I am really a cute little person loved by everyone. - Dudu's Diary


"I am my mother's little darling!" Yuan Dudu subconsciously replied.

Yuan Miao was hit in the heart by this sentence, she stood up unbearably, took three steps then two steps. She approached Dudu and squatted down, then held his fleshy face and rubbed it. "Why are you so cute?"

Dudu's Diary - Chapter 29: Grandpa And Aunt

The car drove from Panshan Road to the villa halfway up the mountain, entered through the gate, then turned to a path, and soon stopped in front of one of the villas.

As soon as the car stopped, the door of the villa opened, and a middle-aged woman of about forty or fifty appeared at the door. When she saw the car, she greeted it with joy and rubbed her hands excitedly.

Yuan Long was the first to open the door and get out of the car and shouted to the woman, "Aunt Lian."

Dudu's Diary - Chapter 28: Returning To the Imperial City And Grandpa.

"Back to the Imperial City?" Yu Shanshan froze.

Yuan Long touched her hair and told her his plan: "I will go back to the army after my injury is healed. I want to take you and Dudu to the army. I am not as ease to leave you and our son here alone."

The army ......

This remark did not surprise Yu Shanshan. in fact, she secretly thought about the army. She knew that Yuan Long could not stay here forever. He's a man of the country, and his home was in the army. One day he would return to the army and could not be with her and Dudu forever like ordinary men.

Dudu's Diary - Chapter 27: Crying and Understanding

Yuan Long quickly entered the room and was relieved to see Yu Shanshan sleeping there. But when he saw the purple and black spots on her waist, his whole face sank instantly.

He went up to lift her clothes and found that her waist and stomach were covered with purple marks and there were many needle holes on them, perhaps in other parts of her body as well.

Yuan Long is an adult and does not think she was beaten up like Dudu does. He can see that these marks should be left by cupping and acupuncture.

But when did she went out for cupping and acupuncture? And why does she want to go in the first place?

Dudu's Diary - Chapter 26: Mom Was Beaten

Two hours later, Yu Shanshan came out of the weight-loss organization sweating profusely. The whole person could not stand up straight.

It hurts. It hurts too much. That's the only thing she feels right now.

She didn't even know how she managed to spent two painful hours. It really hurt her so much that she wanted to jump out of bed and run away. However, thinking of her determination to lose weight, she persevered with the pain.

Didn't the weight loss consultant say it will only hurt a little bit? Only a little bit? It's really painful for the soul. Especially when walking around, it makes people doubt if life is worth living.

Ruo Chun and Jing Ming - Chapter 2

Jing Ming's family lives in a high-end villa area, with flowing water, rockeries and shady trees.

The car passed through the light and shadows made by the magnolia street lamps and stopped in front of a white three-story European building. Upstairs and the ground floor are full of lights, like a sparkling jewelry box.

Jing Ming turned off the engine

Du Ruo pushed opened the door to get out of the car, but her chest was pulled by the seat belt. She turned back to unfasten the seat belt and finally got out.

A man in his thirties walked quickly out of the house: "Do you have any luggage?"
