I, disguised as a white dragon, was supported by the state.

Just as she was about to ask, she suddenly heard her phone ring.

After answering the call, her expression quickly turned strange as she suppressed her surprise.

A few minutes later, she hung up the phone, her face beaming with barely suppressed joy.

"I got a call from headquarters saying I had outstanding performance and they wanted to transfer me to headquarters!" she said excitedly.

She works for a third-tier subsidiary of a central state-owned enterprise. The pay is average, but the job is stable, though it can't compare to the head office.

Not to mention the significantly higher welfare benefits there, the mere fact that it can solve the household registration problem makes it extremely attractive.

According to the company, if you go to the head office for two years to "gild your resume," you'll be promoted at least three levels when you come back!

Su Nan became suspicious: "Didn't you say you offended your boss? You got a C in your performance review last year?"

The wife paused for a moment, her joy gradually fading, and her brows furrowing.

“Something seems off,” Su Nan said. “The person who called me just now claimed to be from the State Information Center, which is directly under the National Development and Reform Commission. He said he had seen my graduate thesis and resume and invited me to work in one of their working groups.”

“It’s a permanent position,” he said.

"He's a liar!" the wife blurted out instinctively.

Her hometown is in Shandong Province, so she understands the value of a government-affiliated position.

“They said they could solve the housing and household registration issues once we went there,” Su Nan said, not believing it herself, but the bait they offered was too tempting. “They could also solve Yangyang’s schooling problem, with any school in Yancheng to choose from.”

His wife also began to waver.

Even though her instincts told her it was a scam, she still tried to believe it: "It really is the department you mentioned. These conditions aren't exactly exaggeration, are they?"

"We don't seem to have anything worth being fooled about, do we?" Su Nan felt dizzy.

How could such a windfall happen to me?

The graduate thesis was written many years ago, so it's like a fantasy that it would be noticed by the highest levels of the government.

But what else?

His parents are deceased, and his brother has been missing for many years, presumably having met with some misfortune long ago.

My parents-in-law are both honest middle school teachers and have no power or influence whatsoever.

I heard that my brother-in-law's girlfriend comes from a very powerful family, which is why they are doing everything they can to obstruct the relationship between the two of them. How could they possibly go to such lengths to help me out?

"Did they say how to contact them?" the wife asked.

"He said he would come to the company to find me after I started working," Su Nan said.

The wife said, "They shouldn't be scammers, right? They should at least show their work ID."

……

Su Nan believed it even before seeing the work ID.

When he saw the boss personally accompanying him and speaking to him with great flattery, he knew that he had not encountered a swindler.

The pie really did fall into my head!

After speaking with him face-to-face, he felt as if he were in a dream.

The person who came was of high rank; their information could be found online.

The group he was invited to join was newly established this year, and he previously served as the acting group leader.

Not only are they formally employed, but they also hold very high ranks.

When his boss's attitude towards him became obsequious and flattering, he understood the value of this position.

With all these benefits and perks, his life is practically guaranteed.

When he got home, he found that his wife was also beaming with joy.

Only after chatting did he learn that his wife's transfer to headquarters was a done deal.

"People at headquarters were asking me about you, so my transfer is definitely related to you," she said. "If we hadn't known each other for over a decade, I would have suspected you knew some big shot!"

"I'm totally confused too," Su Nan said, equally puzzled but in a great mood. "Maybe it's my parents and my brother protecting me!"

……

"Su Nan is unaware that Mr. Bai is protecting him from behind the scenes."

Guan Mi said, "Director Zhao was not satisfied with the last arrangement, so this time he asked someone to rearrange his and his wife's work."

“Their new jobs are very relaxed, with excellent benefits, so they won’t have to worry about making a living in the future,” she explained. “He asked me to ask you if this arrangement is acceptable.”

Bai Lin naturally had no objections.

In fact, even if the other party hadn't made that arrangement, he planned to wait until his spiritual power recovered and then take some time to see his younger brother.

The two brothers had a good relationship before.

He didn't need to pretend in front of his younger brother.

However, his spiritual energy has only recovered by less than half a percent, so it is not yet suitable for him to meet.

He must continue to lie low.

“I told them about your ability to save people,” Guan Mi said softly after hesitating for several seconds.

Seven days have passed since Bai Lin told her about curing the sick and saving lives.

She originally planned to wait until the higher-ups came to her for help before talking to Bai Lin, but Director Zhao hadn't said anything yet, and she felt that it was only a matter of time.

To her slight relief, Bai Lin simply hummed in response, seemingly unconcerned.

"Director Zhao's initiative in showing goodwill suggests he might need Mr. Bai's help in the future," Guan Mi reminded him.

Bai Lin's gaze remained fixed on the television, and he said casually, "If you can help me take care of my deceased friend, it's no problem to help him save someone."

Guan Mi breathed a sigh of relief, held up a large handful of grapes to Bai Lin's lips, and said with a smile, "Mr. Bai is very kind."

Kind?

Bai Lin found it amusing to hear such a comment for the first time.

Chapter 17 Bai Lin: I saved this person!

Bai Lin stuck out his tongue and swallowed the grape that Guan Mi offered to his mouth.

Seeing Zhang Yu eavesdropping there, he shouted, "Go back and ask him how my Dragon Palace is doing."

"Ah, okay!" Zhang Yu quickly replied.

Watching Bai Lin devour a handful of grapes without even spitting out the skins, he was secretly disappointed.

He recently recruited two researchers and is having them use microscopes to extract Bai Lin's saliva and bodily fluid residues from the garbage, but unfortunately, progress has been slow.

Even in the replaced pool water, nothing unusual was extracted.

This left him with great regret.

This white dragon eats quite a lot every day!

"Mr. Bai, how often do you relieve yourself?" Zhang Yu hesitated for a moment before finally asking.

Guan Mi was cutting a cantaloupe with a fruit knife when he heard this and paused.

She remembered hearing this question many times before.

Bai Lin was also getting impatient.

He didn't really want to show off his extraordinary abilities too much.

Before his spiritual power was restored, he remained wary of the world.

However, this guy is too talkative, always worrying about his excrement and urine, and I've asked him about it several times already.

"When have you ever heard of dragons being like humans?" he said coldly.

Zhang Yu was taken aback.

In the myths and legends he encountered, dragons seemed to really not defecate!

Even in the Dragon Palace of "Journey to the West", there is no description of a toilet.

"Don't you poop?" he asked in surprise.

Didn't we say a few days ago that we were going to drag him down with us?

"Get out!" Bai Lin roared.

There's really nothing to talk about with a guy who's obsessed with his excrement all day long.

Under the intimidating aura emanating from him, Zhang Yu trembled and left.

Seeing his disheveled appearance, Guan Mi burst out laughing.

Suddenly noticing Bai Lin staring at her, she met his gaze for a moment, then quickly put on a serious face and said, "A batch of Wagyu beef was airlifted over today. Shall we have steak for lunch?"

Bai Lin lowered his head: "Add another roast goose and a gourd chicken."

Unable to cultivate, he could only indulge his desire for food and drink.

"Okay." Guan Mi readily agreed.

When she went out to tell the restaurant to prepare, she found Zhang Yu sitting dejectedly on the steps outside the door.

"Miss Guan." Zhang Yu greeted her weakly when he saw her.

“Dr. Zhang.” Guan Mi nodded.

She hadn't intended to say much, but after taking a couple of steps, she thought that since he was in a bad mood, she might say something that angered Bai Lin next time. So she stepped back to the front of the steps and asked, "Is Dr. Zhang considering his future research direction?"

"It's not a matter of consideration, it's a matter of distress," Zhang Yu corrected, his face full of worry.

Everyone knows why he came here.

Now that he knows the white dragon doesn't excrete waste, and that it looks exceptionally healthy with no signs of molting or losing scales, and that it's difficult to extract anything of value from its food scraps, he can't help but feel distressed.

There's nothing here, so what's the point of researching anything in my Shenlong Research Lab?

By the way, this white dragon didn't even fart!

“I don’t know much about Dr. Zhang’s research, but I do have a suggestion regarding Mr. Bai’s research,” Guan Mi said.

Zhang Yu looked up at her, but did not say anything.

He didn't think this former host, a graduate of Daxia Media University, would have any good ideas.

"Instead of focusing on its excrement, you should observe Mr. Bai's lifestyle habits more closely, such as its diet, sleep, and ability to heal and save lives," Guan Mi said. "After all, Dr. Zhang is Mr. Bai's health consultant!"

A sudden inspiration struck Zhang Yu.

He slapped his forehead hard, then exclaimed in sudden realization, "That's right! The only dragon in the world is the biggest research subject in itself!"

"Thank you for reminding me, Miss Guan. I almost got stuck on that!"

Guan Mi smiled, waved, and left.

Looking at her gentle and serene smile, and her long legs that seemed to glow in the sunlight, Zhang Yu suddenly felt a surge of desire, like the saying goes, "A beautiful lady is the object of a gentleman's affections."

Then, thinking of her relationship with Bai Lin, he shook his head with a wry smile.

It's perfectly normal for a eligible bachelor in his thirties to feel attracted to such a beautiful and charming woman.

However, she is the only "Dragon Secretary" in the world, and is greatly favored by that white dragon.

If he were to anger the White Dragon and be swallowed whole, he would have no recourse.

"I heard she's never been in a relationship. Could it be that she doesn't like men, or even humans?" A thought suddenly flashed through Zhang Yu's mind.

He rubbed his head vigorously, forcing himself to stop thinking nonsense, and got up to find Liu Chongyu.

He planned to first request the previous records so he could study Bailong's habits in detail.

The research direction we took from the beginning was wrong!

It doesn't even know if it excretes, yet it keeps yearning for dragon droppings; it's laughable.

"It can be done simultaneously in two directions."

"I'll personally observe its habits, and have the researchers continue to extract special substances from its food scraps..."

"Oh, right, there's also the progress at Yatou Mountain. They've been urging us on it, so we need to remind Director Liu."
