Chapter 397 (2/2)

These haters would never admit that they were expecting the male protagonist to have sexual intercourse with the female director as a dog. Although this sounded a little intense, wasn’t it exciting as well?

All in all, the work, “Dog Days” turned out to be a laid-back, relaxed, slice of life web novel.

Zhao Youyue had to admit that after she finished reading the novel, her perception of “Stop Gambling” changed quite a bit. She even felt that this web novel had the potential to become highly popular. It was yet another niche, hidden gem. It could be seen as a “transfiguration” novel, but the transfiguration, in this case, involved turning into an animal.

If this novel could become highly popular, then she would be able to get a highly popular character card from it. This should be relatively easy, but the key point now was that the creator really had a problem with updating his novel. He was too stubborn for his own good!

Zhao Youyue began to look for this book’s reader group, but found that there was no such thing at all…

In the comments section, Zhao Youyue also found such comments —- —-

“I’m here because I’m angry that there are no new chapters. Can anyone give me the link to the reader group? I beg all of you. As I have not been able to read “Dog Days,” I’m really dying here!”

“This book has the potential to become a work of a god. Why won’t you update it properly? There isn’t even a reader group, how are we supposed to urge you to haul ass?”

“If this book is left incomplete, I will hunt the author down and make him incomplete!”

“Update update update update, please! I’m completely addicted to it. If it’s not going to updated soon, I’m going to be sick!”

…

As the readers of “Dog Days” were wildly urging for new updates, an uncle dressed in a bathrobe was busy smoking a cigarette. When he walked back into the mahjong room of a bathing center, there were only three people left.[1]

He had a beard, but an otherwise unremarkable appearance, the beginnings of a beer belly, and fish eyes. He looked like the life had been drained out of him.

However, the moment he sat in front of the mahjong table, the energy in him sprung to life!

This man’s name was Sun Xian. He had a lot of free time. Of course, his favorite thing to do during that free time was to play mahjong. He had other hobbies such as writing, but he would only resort to it when he felt like he was having bad luck, or when he had ran out of money to play mahjong anymore. Writing was his way to “not gamble.” He did not write for profit; he only did it to curb his gambling addiction.

He was a landlord. Every month, he received about five or six thousand from rent. That was enough to cover the expenses of one person. The extra money he had was used to play mahjong. He definitely lived a good life.

Everyone should just live their whole lives leisurely like this. Why did they have to think about so many other things?

“Old Sun, why are you looking at your phone and smiling. Eyes on the board. We’re playing mahjong,” a mahjong friend drawled.

“Oh… I wrote some stuff on the internet. Now a bunch of grandchildren are urging me to post more of it. I find it funny watching them get this anxious. Well, fortunately, I’m a good person. Even though I’m busy with mahjong right now, since they want updates that much, I’ll just write anything I can think about. Something totally messy and random would be sufficient to fool this bunch of grandchildren,” Sun Xian said in a relaxed manner, while sitting with his legs crossed and smoking away.

Sun Xian was basically a super evil creator. He fulfilled that role in all manner!
