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

“Any mortal would be intimidated by someone like Mr. Bai,” Liu Chongyu said with a smile. “Dr. Zhang’s reaction is only natural. Although he may not be very brave, he is very professional.”

Do you specialize in studying feces?

Bai Lin scoffed inwardly, then turned and asked, "And this one?"

"Security team leader Lei Yao greets Mr. Bai!" Lei Yao's voice was strong and clear, and he gave Bai Lin a standard military salute.

“Not bad,” Bai Lin approvingly said, “this one seems much bolder.”

Zhang Yu's face flushed red, and he wanted to say that he wasn't that cowardly.

He opened his mouth wide, but the words that came out turned into a "Wow" due to nervousness.

In the quiet room, his "Wow" sounded particularly jarring.

"Eh, you cried from fright?" Bai Lin asked in surprise.

Guan Mi and the others also looked at Zhang Yu in astonishment.

Was this promising young academician candidate really so frightened that he burst into tears?

Zhang Yu blushed crimson, his fists clenched so tightly he wished he could disappear into a hole in the ground.

"I...I didn't," he cried, his chest heaving. "I didn't cry!"

"Oh." Bai Lin said, disappointed.

He thought he was going to have some fun.

Guan Mi pursed her lips, trying her best to hold back, but she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Liu Chongyu couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at Zhang Yu's hands, which were clenched and unclenched nervously, seemingly unsure of what to do with them.

Only Lei Yao stared straight ahead without changing his expression, though his face twitched slightly.

Zhang Yu's face flushed red and then turned pale.

He wanted to make a bold statement to show that he wasn't afraid at all, but when faced with Bai Long's deep eyes, he finally resorted to a weak excuse: "I... I was just too shocked."

If it weren't for that one glance leaving such a deep impression on him, he would have thought that the person in front of him was a human inside a white dragon's body.

No matter how much a python mutates, it can't talk!

Dr. Zhang's values ​​are being reshaped.

Bai Lin glanced at him and pulled half of her body out of the pool.

Holy crap!

Zhang Yu's eyes widened again, and he subconsciously took a step back.

He saw that after the dragon's crystal-clear, jade-like body left the pool, a layer of mist appeared on its surface. When its tail was pulled out of the pool, its surface was smooth as jade, without a single water stain remaining.

This is yet another strange phenomenon that science cannot explain!

Could it be some kind of legendary supernatural power or magic?

Bai Lin curled up on the sofa, its tail drooping on the floor, and stared at the television in front of it listlessly.

The television was broadcasting the news.

He had previously asked Guan Mi to compile recent years' news broadcasts under the pretext of understanding the world.

Things he found boring a hundred years ago, he now finds fascinating.

He is using this opportunity to quickly familiarize himself with this world he hasn't visited in twenty years.

Seeing that Bai Lin remained silent, clearly intending to see him off, Zhang Yu refused to leave and winked at Liu Chongyu.

Helpless, Liu Chongyu could only step forward and say, "Mr. Bai, Captain Lei Yao and Dr. Zhang Yu are both outstanding talents in Great Xia, making outstanding contributions in their respective fields. They are now in charge of your security and health consultation, respectively. Do you have anything to say to them?"

Do I depend on them for my safety and health?

Bai Lin scoffed.

He knew perfectly well that the so-called security was actually just guarding, and the health consultant was just trying to study him.

"No," he said lazily.

He actually had many thoughts in his mind, but now was not the right time to voice them.

He needs to at least recover more of his spiritual energy.

"Okay, then I..."

Liu Chongyu had barely finished speaking when Zhang Yu couldn't help but interrupt, "Mr. Bai, I'll be responsible for your health from now on, so I need to know you to some extent. Could... could I stay by your side to observe you?"

Bai Lin glanced at him in surprise, wondering how this guy with thinning hair had suddenly become so bold.

He nodded casually.

Zhang Yu was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.

Guan Mi frowned slightly, worried that this guy would take away his zookeeper position.

After watching Liu Chongyu and his companion leave, she hesitated for a moment, then picked up a banana from the table, peeled it, and brought it to Bai Lin's lips: "Mr. Bai, would you like to try a banana?"

This was the first time Bai Lin had been fed like this.

Xuzhou has no shortage of various fruits, but bananas are not available.

Having not eaten fruit for twenty years, he naturally longed for the fruits of the earth.

He hadn't wanted to waste his meager spiritual energy on peeling bananas, so he had only eaten some other fruits. Now that the food was right in front of him, he certainly wouldn't be coy.

He opened his mouth, took a bite of the banana, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it, saying with satisfaction, "Not bad."

It tastes just like I remember.

Guan Mi put down the banana peel, a smile playing on his lips, looking very happy.

How can you be considered a qualified zookeeper if you don't hand-feed the animals?

She picked up a slice of watermelon with a long bamboo skewer and said with a smile, "Mr. Bai, please try this watermelon. It's very sweet."

Bai Lin curled his tongue and swallowed the piece of watermelon into his mouth.

"A little more," he said.

The watermelon was as sweet as the girl's smile, but unfortunately there was only a small piece, not even enough to fill a tooth gap.

"Okay!" Guan Mi pulled the bowl of fruit to Bai Lin's side, bent down, and fed Bai Lin the fruit bite by bite.

She pursed her lips, feeling as if she were doing something sacred, her heart leaping with joy, her happiness evident on her face.

Bai Lin was also in a good mood.

He had never been this relaxed in the other world in the past hundred years.

At that time, he spent most of his time in seclusion cultivating, and his days were dull and boring.

A hundred years may not be as exciting as ten years for an ordinary person.

Chapter 12 Patting the Head

Guan Mi carefully observed the dragon's head, which was so close to him, watching its mouth open and close as it savored the delicious fruit. Its two whiskers trembled slightly, and its horns gleamed with a faint golden light, its scales as if carved from stone and jade...

Unable to suppress the urge in her heart, she boldly raised her left hand and gently stroked the dragon's head.

The cool, refreshing touch made her squint slightly.

Suddenly, Guan Mi felt the dragon's head beside him turn towards him. His heart pounded so hard it almost jumped out of his throat, his legs went numb, and his left hand trembled slightly. He was unable to move forward or backward.

Bai Lin felt his head being patted.

He turned his head, intending to remind the woman not to touch him inappropriately.

Guan Mi was hunched over, her chest directly facing him.

Bai Lin turned his head away and looked away.

Feeling the other person remove their hand as if they'd been electrocuted, he remained silent for two seconds before finally saying, "You can sit down."

"Ah, oh." Guan Mi quickly took two steps back.

When she saw Zhang Yu sitting on the sofa to the side, staring at them in disbelief, she hesitated for a moment, then took two steps forward and sat down on the single sofa where Bai Lin was sitting, with half of her buttocks touching it.

Her arm involuntarily touched Bai Lin's body, and the cool touch felt very comfortable to her.

She was secretly pleased to find that Bai Lin hadn't said anything, and her cheeks turned red.

This is the white dragon from mythology!

Bai Lin turned his head and saw her sitting upright with a flushed face, and suddenly found it funny.

The long-buried memories were unlocked, and he thought of a distant time when he had shamelessly sat down next to a girl like this.

Guan Mi waited cautiously for more than ten seconds, and when he realized that Bai Long did not refuse, he was secretly delighted.

She recently did a lot of research and learned that an excellent zookeeper needs to have a lot of contact with wild animals and let them become familiar with her scent in order to build a close relationship and be truly accepted.

Isn't the white dragon considered a ferocious beast?

Wait, could it be that it thinks it should be classified as a "pet"?

As Guan Mi was lost in thought, he suddenly felt the dragon beside him move.

Its coiled body rose higher, and then a thick, sharp dragon claw descended upon her head like a dark cloud.

Guan Mi saw this scene through the shadows on the ground and instantly felt a chill run down his spine.

If I swat at him like that, won't my head be smashed?

Don't be so cruel!

She was panicking, praying anxiously, when suddenly her head felt heavy.

She felt a jolt as if she had been electrocuted, then felt a lightness on the top of her head, followed by a heaviness, and at the same time, a strong force shook her head.

Guan Mi only snapped out of her daze when she noticed that the white dragon beside her had coiled up again and was leaning its head on the sofa armrest watching TV.

Is he touching his own head?

Did a dragon pat my head and kill me?

She sensed something was amiss, her lips curved into a smile, and she moved her arm closer to Bai Long, asking, "Do you want to eat something? I'll feed you."

"No, thank you," Bai Lin refused.

These things are fine to try once in a while; there's no need to eat them all the time.

He transformed into a dragon, not a gluttonous beast.

Having already abstained from grains, he arrived on Earth, a place lacking in spiritual energy, and could only indulge his cravings for food.

Looking at the man and the dragon, Zhang Yu suddenly understood what Liu Chongyu meant when he said that Guan Mi was appointed by the White Dragon.

This white dragon is exceptionally tolerant of the woman beside him.

Just now, when the dragon's claw stroked the top of the other's head, he actually saw a trace of remembrance and affection on the dragon's face.

Envy appeared in his eyes.

Recalling everything he had seen and heard since entering the room, a sudden thought struck him, and a bold idea came to him.

This white dragon seems quite approachable; perhaps I could try to get a little closer to it?

If Guan Mi can touch it, why can't I?

If you can really become friends with it, asking it for some shed scales, nails, dragon blood, or bodily fluids will be a piece of cake.

Dr. Zhang secretly swallowed, becoming restless.

He clenched his fist, hesitated for a few seconds, looked at Bai Lin and Guan Mi sitting together, and mustered up his courage to give it a try.

Although he may not be the most daring, his current achievements are a testament to his adventurous spirit.

Zhang Yu, with his right hand on the sofa, took a deep breath and suddenly stood up.

Swish!

Both pairs of eyes turned to him simultaneously.

Looking at Guan Mi's expressionless face, and especially Bai Lin's unreadable expression, Zhang Yu's courage vanished completely.

Even without looking directly at him, he still felt his legs go weak.
