Ning An's Wild Wish System

”I... I signed it?”

When people are extremely excited, at that moment, they’re not actually happy, but rather bewildered.

Just like Du Kangkang right now, he stared blankly at the phone, muttering:

”I did it? I actually got accepted?”

”Yes, Mr. Du.”

The call hadn’t ended, the sweet voice on the other end continued:

”According to the needs of our magazine, we’ve selected your three articles, totaling over twelve thousand words. According to the k300 standard, you will receive three thousand six hundred seventy-three yuan as your manuscript fee.”

Before Du Kangkang could react, the voice on the other end encouraged him with a smile: ”For your submissions, whether it’s the content or the style, our chief editor really likes them. The next time you submit to us, your manuscript will be presented directly to the chief editor, and we will also increase your manuscript fee.”

”Thank you for your support of Yi Lin Magazine, I won’t disturb you any longer. Wish you a pleasant life, goodbye.”

”Beep beep beep!”

As the call ended, Du Kangkang still hadn’t come to his senses, until a text message appeared:

[Your account has been credited with three thousand six hundred seventy-three yuan!]

”Holy crap!”

Only then did Du Kangkang come to his senses, incredulously staring at the message repeatedly, with tears shimmering faintly in his eyes.

”Mom, did you see it up there, did you see it...”

”I’m not useless, I’m not useless!”

”I can also earn money, I can earn money to support myself!”

The young man went from a low roar to a skyward bellow, as if venting years of grievances and unwillingness.

The viewers in the live stream were also happy for him at this moment.

”This kid really reminds me of myself when I was young, holding in all the frustration, just to prove himself, awesome!”

”The manuscript fee isn’t much, but for a college student, it’s already a decent income. Plus, having a skill like writing definitely helps with confidence.”

”Yeah, back in the day, I too had nothing at home, but with a dancing skill, I earned my way to a Cullinan.”

”No, dude, wait! Let me check your profile... Ah, ah, it’s you, right? You, breaking out from having nothing at home by live streaming dancing!”

”...”

Watching Du Kangkang crying for joy, Ning An also felt a sigh of relief.

This result was naturally good, Du Kangkang now had money for the rabies vaccine and had acquired a skill to make a living, which would definitely make him more independent and add to his personal charm.

”Alright, alright, now you can go down the mountain for the rabies vaccine, right?” Ning An said with a feigned seriousness.

”Yes! I can!”

Du Kangkang nodded vigorously, then earnestly said, ”Little Daoist, wait for me, I will definitely come back to fulfill my promise to the founder!”

”Go, go.”

Ning An waved his hand, teasingly: ”Whether you come back or not doesn’t matter, just don’t come back asking for Guanyin soil again.”

”Hehe.”

Du Kangkang rubbed his nose awkwardly, two blushes appearing on his face.

After chatting idly with Ning An for a few words, Ning An urged him to go down the mountain for the rabies vaccine.

”Remember, you only live once, sometimes it’s okay to lower your head at home.”

Ning An looked at Du Kangkang, who was about to turn and leave, smiling and shaking his head as he gave his advice.

”Bang——”

Just then, the Daoist Temple’s door was suddenly slammed.

The sound was as loud as a big cobblestone crashing into the water, shocking everyone!

”My son, why are you so pitiful.”

”Bitten by a dog, not going to the hospital, but being tricked into burning incense here instead.”

”You damn Daoists, you are the last remnants of feudalism. If anything happens to my son, I won’t let you off!”

”Oh, my poor son, are you alright?”

This plump woman wailed all the way from the temple entrance to the Incense Burner, but there wasn’t a trace of sorrow on her face.

Seeing this plump woman, the initially happy Du Kangkang immediately turned cold, just watching her perform without saying a word.

The chubby woman didn’t feel embarrassed at all; she came up and touched around, as if genuinely concerned for him.

”I don’t have any money on me, no need to look.”

Suddenly, Du Kangkang blurted out this sentence.

The plump woman’s smiling face instantly froze, then her hand retreated awkwardly as she forced a smile, ”My boy, what’s with the tone towards your mom? I’m concerned about you, checking on your injury.”

Du Kangkang still wore a cold expression, speaking icily: ”How did you know I was here?”

”Oh, you stubborn child, bitten by a dog and not telling the family. If your roommate hadn’t pitied you and secretly told your counselor, I’d still be in the dark.”

As the plump woman spoke, she squeezed out two fake tears, which made her seem a bit more sincere.

”It’s nothing now, you can leave.” Du Kangkang didn’t even look at her, speaking in a deep voice while looking up.

Seeing this awkward scene, the viewers in the live stream only found it strange.

”Eh? Why does the interaction between this mother and son feel so strange? The mom doesn’t seem like a mom, and the son doesn’t seem like a son.”

”Yeah, if you say they’re not mother and son, this woman calls him son as soon as she enters, and he doesn’t refute. If you say they are, at first glance, you’d think they’re enemies.”

”His mom claims not to care about him, but she came so early in the morning. If she cares, she doesn’t even know where the wound is, and then there’s that sentence the kid said... I don’t understand.”

”...”

Du Kangkang just looked coldly at the plump woman, not feeling that there was anything wrong with his behavior.

The plump woman seemed to be used to his attitude, with a natural expression as well.
