Ning An's Wild Wish System

"Brother Sect Leader, this is just not cool. We trusted you so much, it’s disappointing."

"+10086, boo hoo hoo."

Seeing all the comments in the livestream, Ning An rolled his eyes dismissively.

Whoever wants to fall for the scam can go ahead, he certainly won’t.

Just then, his phone suddenly rang.

Although honesty between people is encouraged these days, Ning An couldn’t help but chuckle at the glaring "scam call" label on the incoming call.

The angle was just right, clearly visible to the folks in the livestream.

"Wow, even the scammers know Brother Sect Leader’s number, yet I, as a loyal fan, don’t. So sad."

"Hahaha, scam calls today are getting bolder, with the word ’scam’ blatantly displayed, yet they still call people."

"Even those naive and harmless college students fall for it. No matter how obvious it is, someone will still get scammed."

"..."

While chatting, the folks in the livestream teased Ning An.

"Brother Sect Leader, couldn’t resist late at night and clicked on those dodgy sites, and leaked your info, huh?"

"Pah! What nonsense! Aren’t international hotties and local teasers enough for Brother Sect Leader?"

"Heh, you don’t get it, do you? House flowers don’t smell as sweet as wild ones. The thrill is in the hunt, not what comes to you."

"Hehehe, dude, you seem to know your stuff. Your better half’s in your contacts, right? I’ve already screenshotted and sent the gossip to everyone."

"Damn! Scumbags everywhere! Can’t browse the internet without bumping into them!"

"..."

Ning An initially wanted to hang up, but then he had an idea.

He took out another phone, scrolled through the call history, and quickly found a contact labeled "sales call."

Seeing this number, a smile crept onto Ning An’s lips.

Let the scammer scam the salesperson, and the salesperson to hit their targets through the scammer!

This idea is pure genius!

The folks in the livestream watched him open the phonebook, pausing at the sales contact, feeling puzzled.

"Huh, what’s he doing?"

"No idea, but everyone knows there’s no decent person in sales."

"Yeah, last time I took a sales call thinking it was no big deal, ended up losing sixteen ninety-nine!"

"Being scammed by sales is normal, but losing money with a nine at the end? Haha."

"No secrets here. They pushed a membership card, promising fun night activities if I signed up..."

"Walt? Are you sure that’s sales?"

"Hey, buddy, drop an address. As a good citizen of the new century, I must personally educate such unscrupulous workers."

"Alright, alright, awesome!"

Each comment from the livestream viewers, though not explicit, was enough to make anyone burst out laughing.

Ning An smiled slightly. He didn’t hang up the scam call but instead directly dialed back the sales number.

"Huh? What’s Brother Sect Leader doing? Not hanging up but calling another number, what the heck?"

"Hey! Something’s definitely up! Could it be..."

"Damn! Guys, wake up! Time to grab some popcorn!"

"..."

Suddenly, the folks in the livestream understood Ning An’s plan and got excited, eyes wide and ready for the drama.

To gossip mongers, nothing is more important than the gossip itself!

With the sales call connecting, Ning An also picked up the scam call, placing both phones on the desk facing each other.

To ensure clarity, Ning An even thoughtfully turned on the speaker.

"Hello? Are you there?"

The voice from the sales call came first, excited and with a slight magnetic quality.

Ning An sat back with a cup of tea, smiling silently in his chair.

From the other end, the scam call first came with some garbled language, then a somewhat disjointed Mandarin, slightly surprised in tone.

Perhaps they didn’t expect the call not only to connect but for the recipient to seem so eager.

"Hello, Ning An."

The salesperson quickly checked their list, confirming the name!

Among countless calls, finally, someone called back! It was thrilling!

"Yes... yes, yes!"

The salesperson was near tears, unsure whether it was from their persistence paying off or from human understanding.

In the livestream, viewers found themselves on the floor laughing.

"This is killing me. Both think Ning An is their target; both think they’ve found the right person. If this isn’t genius, I don’t know what is!"

"Pfft! I can’t believe they actually hit it off, with both names matching! And both sides thrilled, but over what?"

"Of course, they’re excited! They each think they’re about to make money. Let the scammer try to scam the sales, and the sales sell to the scammer. Isn’t that perfect?"

"If this isn’t genius, what is?"

"Bravo! Brother Sect Leader, you’re a natural-born genius. I’m dying here. Why couldn’t I come up with this?"

"Hey, if you had this talent, you’d be a top streamer already. Don’t dwell on it, just enjoy and learn."
