Chapter 11.1: Crashes
Lan Ning close the dialog window. And then saw the message that the editor sent: “It is already March. Where is Teacher Xing Xin’s manuscript?”
Lan Ning: “……………”
Yesterday, who was it who so openly comforted her? How is it that only after 1 night, it has all changed!
She hold her head with her hand and gave an angry roar.
Cauliflower: Teacher Xing Xin, it is already March! Submit your manuscript! Submit your manuscript! (curse) (curse) (curse)
There were no responds from the other side. Until after Lan Ning finished her lunch, the other side finally return her message: “Have you heard of Chun Kun?”
Lan Ning: “……………….”
Cauliflower: Teacher Xing Sin, you have just finished hibernation. It is spring. You have a clear time all year round (smile)
Xing Xin: What is sober? What is illusory? In the end, it is Zhuang Zhou Dream or is it Zhuang Zhou butterfly dream?
Lan Ning: “……………”
#Teacher Xing Xin is teaching you the philosophy of how to drag the manuscript#
Cauliflower: I did not have a good education. (Goodbye). In short, you give me your manuscript soon…. (worship)
Xing Xin: Think about it. People will die one day. You think delivery of the manuscript is so important?
Cauliflower: Of course. Because it is related to when I die (smile)
Xing Xin: …………….
Xing Xin: I go and take a nap. Then I will write.
Cauliflower: Did you not just woke up! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻ – ┻
She look helplessly at the cartoon picture darken and felt powerless. She close the dialog box and went on Weibo into the account ‘Teacher Xing Xin hand in the draft today’ and left a message:-
No capitalization! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻ – ┻
After the initial crazy flourishing stage, now the number of fans have been relatively stable. Usually she find them having no reason to suppose her post. But today, probably seeing that she is close to the brink of collapse, some came up with supporting comments.
“Heartbreaking Blogger. (laugh cry)”
“Supporting Editor (⊙v⊙)”
“So, I will definitely support editor ╮(╯_╰)╭”
“(candle)”
Lan Ning: “………………”
The reason why she is speechless was because the candle was posted by Teacher Xing Xin.
You spicy chicken!
16:00 hrs :- Lan Ning haggardly drag herself to get off work.
Arriving home, she put down her own big bag on the living room sofa. She don’t feel like moving about at all.
At this dreadful time, the phone rang. Lan Ning searched her bag for a long time and finally took it out. It seems like a courier service number.
“Hello…..”
“Hello. I have a package for you. Please come down and take it.”
If it is before, Lan Ning would fly down to get it once hearing that it is the courier. But now she is really too lazy to move. And she did not remember what she bought. How is there be any courier?
“You leave it with the security room downstairs. I will come and get it later.”
“It is hairy crabs oh…”
Lan Ning wrinkled her brows. Hairy crabs? She did not buy ah. Who sent it to her?
Although she do not know who sent it, but the crab cannot leave it there. She got up from the sofa: “Oh. I am coming down now.”
She hung up the phone. On the way down, Lan Ning keep thinking, who would send her hairy crab. While still in college, she would still occasionally receive some gifts that the boys will send her. But started working, her life circle actually become very small. She don’t feel like there is anyone crushing her from the side…..
She went to the security room to pick up the box. She looked at the courier box. Damn it! Where this is hairy crabs ah! It is obviously the preserved sausage that her mother sent from home.
This courier brother ah. In order to get her to quickly come downstairs to collect her courier, even cheated her that it is hairy crabs!
There is so little trust in this world!
Lan Ning carried the package back up. She look for a box to start unpacking the package. In there, there are several flavours of sausage, and three bacon. Lan Ning pinched it. Just nice that she do not feel like cooking today. So can just cook some bacon.
She picked up a piece of sausage and a small bacon out. And wrapped the rest and placed them in the refrigerator. Just as she want to wash her hand to cook, the phone rang again.
Lan Ning ran to pick up the phone. It is a call from mum. “Mom, what is the matter?”
“Ning Ning ah, the sausage and bacon courier that mama sent you have you received it?”
“Just received. The courier even lied to me saying that it is a crab.” Lan Ning said very unhappily.
“Hahaha….” Lan Ning mother laughed and then said to her: “Next time, I will send you crabs. Yes ah, the last time you said wanting to find a new job. How? Is it all okay?”
“Yes, it is all fine.”
“Really? You do not try to cheat mother. If it is not good, then come back. This side, you can also find a job.”
“It’s true” said Lan Ning. Inexplicably grievances, but she did not want her mother to worry. “This is a big company and my colleagues are very kind to me.”
“Oh. I heard your cousin said the other day, you urge the authors on Weibo for their manuscript.”
Lan Ning: “…………..”
“No, she must be wrong. All my writers are particularly diligent in their submission. Never dragged the draft!” Ah, her conscience…….
“Well, don’t give yourself too much pressure at work.”
“I know. I now have a great writer under me. I can make a best-selling book!” Ah my mother. I am sorry. The world really cannot be trusted…….
After chatting with mother for more than 10 minutes, Lan Ning hang up. The heart felt emptier.
This is all Teacher Xing Xin’s fault.
She pull out the phone and dial his number.
